I think we're going to be seeing Strawnilla again very soon ;)

I'm sure I don't need to state the obvious but, MAKE A LOT!!! Holy CRAP is this stuff amazing! Utilizing all my available willpower, I've been able to hold out until today other than a few drips here and there. I just got my new Aspire nautilus Mini with the redesigned head today. It's a BVC (Bottom Vertical Coil) that's basically a mini carto tank and it's amazing! Couldn't think of a better maiden tank than my steeped Strawnilla. Filled her up, let her sit and wick....took a few light hits....then put the watts to it and KA-POW!!! Simply amazing across the board...flavor, vapor production, throat hit and all. Perfection. Period. Ordering a MUCH bigger bottle next time (or 2!). Clark, you are THE MAN!! Thank you Thank you Thank you

Really hoping that this bad boy comes in tomorrow:

So I can put it on top of my brand new and first mech: the AR-15 (clone)

Mod: Cana DNA30
Thoughts:

MMMMmhmhhhmhmmmhhhhmm! This stuff is yummy! I taste a creamy strawberry goodness. I get more of the strawberry milk on inhale and the creaminess explodes on the exhale with thick vapor, along with a very pleasant fresh aroma... Its great at any wattage, it gets sweeter the higher I turn up, which Im still trying to find my favorite sweet spot! Can't wait to test out some different builds on this goody, and look forward to seeing how it will taste later in the steep cycle! It's a very smooth and delicious vape! Thanks and excellent work Clark/NT!!!!

Oh my, oh my how things can change so quickly. So I installed a fresh wick in the kayfun, loaded some strawnilla and I am tasting juicy fresh strawberries. That wasn't there before. I chalk it up to 3 things: Premature steep time, reusing wick from different flavor, and vapor flavor fatigue from chain vaping. With those 3 things fixed it tastes very different. Again, I feel kinda silly. And no, you can't have my juice.
My own personal jury is still out with Frenilla, but i'll rewick fresh and try that again next.

EDIT: I'll list my specs and experience:

Provari 2.5 @ 5 volts
Kayfun lite+ V2 authentic
28ga kanthal, .093" ID @ 2ohms
Cellucotton (Rayon) wick
12mg nic
Steep time (ready to vape by july 26th batch)

Mouth to lung inhale has good flavor and lots of strawberry on the exhale when exhaling through mouth..
Exhaling through the nose gives an off, or muted flavor (not bad, but less flavor), but mouth inhale/exhale is very flavorful and has lots of fresh strawberry flavor. This one is a mouther! This is all mouth breather right here.

I have found this one to be very picky about what you vape it in. When I tried it in the Trident clone it was good but I wasn't overly impressed, in the Reo mini it is absolute heaven. That was without steeping, I continue to love this in the mini more than in others even though I changed the RM2 on the mini to a Cyclone. I have a 1 ohm twisted coil in the RM2 and a .6 twisted 28g coil in the Cyclone. Maybe it likes the small chamber and lower ohms.

If this should (please) become a regular offering I will probably have to buy it it's own Reo, or maybe just maybe it will live in the Dibi, if I can wait that long to give it it's own private squonker.

For now I ration it carefully and will vape a 3 mil bottle or two every few days, it tastes like a nice warm strawberry milkshake to me, funny I've never really cared for strawberry milkshakes maybe I should warm them up first. :) The strawberry isn't really very upfront for me but there is something about this one that makes me smack my lips and go for more.

I have a couple of other strawberry juices that I like a lot and will continue to vape but this one is very special to me. :)

The Virus is the best!! My Strawnilla hasn't really hit for me yet either. It is about time to try it again. I like it but the flavor seems muted to me. Could have been a bad taste buds day.

I'm thinking you're onto something Claudia, my Veritas with duels at sub 0.5 make this stuff pop!

"Bottle born on 7/14/14", though I assume the liquid steeped a bit before they filled this bottle

Vaped: 7/30/14


Now, when I ordered this sucker I wasn't quite sure what to expect. The fruity kind of strawberry flavoring? Or the strawberry flavoring you'd expect from Nesquik Strawberry milk? I figured "hey, it's basically Frenilla with Strawberry tossed in there, I'm sure it'll be decent enough to try a 30 ml size, but I think I'll just get 30 in case it doesn't blow my socks off like Coolcumber Mint, Custard's Last Stand, or Refresh did when I first tried those."

If I could go back and order 100 ml's of this I would. Omg it's like vaping Nesquik Strawberry milk and it's only aged maybe a month. I'm not sure it'll last 3-4 months for the steeping process now 0_0

Clark, please please make more of this!!

New to NT and I was able to snag some Strawnilla! I love it and want more... Not sure how the runs are decided by the maker but would anyone please chime in on how I can get some more PLEASE!!!

Of the maker..... Most refer to him as "He Who Shall Not Be Named"
Of his process.... It is unwise to fathom upon the Ways of HWSNBN just live in his benevolence

Heya Pauly! Strawnilla is on the same cycle as Frenilla - every 6/8 weeks and generally in very limited quantities. Long story - but it causes me to run out of in-house vanilla extract if I leave it up all the time.

Welcome to the family my friend!!~

Thank You sir! I hope I'm in time to order some as soon as it releases.

You're very welcome - this next pass I expect we will be going much deeper on the Strawnilla as opposed to Frenilla... we'll see though. Lots of people hounding for it.
