On the vv v3 I don't get the coffee in Wakonda just creamy goodness but on my mech I taste the coffee, followed by the cream with just a hint of pipe tobacco. It's incredible!! In fact I'm stealth vaping it now!

What are your coil/wick/whatever settings on the mech ?

The reason that I held off on ordering a huge amount is I am beyond picky and was sucked into the Ahlusion hype and hate the liquids that I bought from them. I had order Winter Wild Wood (supposedly a menthol), Orange Nocturne (supposedly like a chocolate orange), and Mocha (you all know what Mocha is). They are 50/50 PG/VG with 12 ml if nicotine. The Winter Wild Wood stinks, the Orange Nocturne smells perfumey, and the Mocha is starting to smell better but I haven't tasted any of them recently. I have had them for about a month and still can't stand the flavors of them.

It's hard to find the right juice but you're on the right track with NT! I've decided I'm extremely picky. That may be based on the small arsenal of juice I appear to have that I never even look at any more.

However, I'm like you and didn't go overboard on the strawnilla. Only ordered 50ml. I absolutely HATE Suicide Bunny's Mother's Milk which is supposed to be a strawberry and cream type juice. I don't get either of those flavors, it tastes like plastic. I can't even open the bottle anymore and it's a pretty big bottle! Also, I don't like strawberry Quik so you can see why I'm a little apprehensive. I do like strawberry and I do like vanilla so I have high hopes for strawnilla. After the steep, hope it works for me but I know some people I can probably trade with if it doesn't! :p

You perhaps forgot one thing about NT flavors. Even if you don't like them, someone else here will GLADLY take them off your hands in trades.

I got 65ml of each (50ml in NZ and 15ml in 6mg). I'll steep the 50ml's and enjoy the 15mls.

Same as you, I'm a bit apprehensive. I love strawberries and cream, love fresh strawberries in custard, but I hate artificially flavored strawberry, especially in milk (but then I don't like milk on its own).

So I took a gamble on this one, knowing that I would be able to trade it off easily once it runs out :p

Thanks. It seems like every mech user on this forum is sub-ohming !

Oh and organic cotton. I'm not intentionally sub-ohming, I just new to coil building and I seem to keep making the coil the same size. I would prefer to be around 1.1. Perhaps I need to add an extra wrap or two.

Order #20768 in! :rickroll:

Order # 20774 is in! Looking forward to this one!

Order #20773 is in! Largest purchase to date.

BOOM! Order #20782!! Free shipping! Now that I think of it, I havent paid for shipping in a loooooong time lol :vapor:

ORDER NUMBER IS: 20778 Can not wait to try this :party:

# 20776 can hardly wait. Glad Clark's servers were up and running.

YOUR ORDER NUMBER IS: 20793 Clark went live early!!! Strawnilla Franilla and Perkins Paste!!! Bring on the cats...

20769! SOOOO EXCITED for this!

Order is in. 100ml coming my way. :)

Order #20798! Strawnilla, Frenilla, and lots of other juice!!! Can't wait to receive this order :D

#20818 100mL of Strawnilla and 60mL of Frenilla

#20831 50ml coming my way

Order number 20823 is in!

Okay, I caved...:facepalm: 20826

20783 coming my way! 50 of Frenilla, 50 Strawnilla, and a 15 of Grape Ap3!

YOUR ORDER NUMBER IS: 20851 Woot WOOT!

I was sooooooo close to getting another 15 of Grape Ape... but I didn't :( I'll regret that one later.. Got 50ml of both Fren and Straw though. Almost the same order, I like your style! :D :toast: #20795

I am still a skeptic so I only ordered 15ml of the Strawnilla and the Frenilla plus 15 ml of CLS and GCD all with 12 ml of nicotine. If I like it, then down the road when they are released again, I will order more. I still have not found that one flavor (or 2 or 3) that will get me off of the analog cigs for good! ;)

I'm starting to feel like I went overboard. Everyone appears to have used self control except for me. 100 ml of Strawnilla and 80 of Frenilla. I would've gotten 100 of Frenilla but I have 30ml I need to cut. I guess that actually puts me at 110 ml of Frenilla. And my iPad just autocorrected Strawnilla when I forgot the "r". Geesh

Order up! #20856 from the seat of my truck @ work. Did someone say Strawnilla? Oh yeah, Strawnilla! With a little Frenilla tossed in for good measure as well.

Just ordered 65ml of each. I was going for 100ml but I somehow managed to be a good girl (yay me). #20865 - that's ~100 orders in less than 45 minutes, another crazy day for the Nico Team !

Well, I wrung out my wallet and was able to pop on 50mls of this delicious sounding concoction. I already LOVE Frenilla, and of course loved strawberry Quik as a kid so I had to jump on this! The hard part will be sticking it away in a dark corner for a month. Good thing I still have so many other NT juices to tide me over :D

Order 20886. Trying this, Frenilla and The Virus!

order# 20893 just placed, had to try grap3 ap3 for the first time along with frenilla and what the hell why not some strawberry frennila. cant wait its party time:toast:

Can't wait to try this one! Steeping is going to be challenging. :confused:

Your order number is: 20935

I got 65ml of each (50ml in NZ and 15ml in 6mg). I'll steep the 50ml's and enjoy the 15mls.

Same as you, I'm a bit apprehensive. I love strawberries and cream, love fresh strawberries in custard, but I hate artificially flavored strawberry, especially in milk (but then I don't like milk on its own).

Wow - today turned into a landslide. THANK YOU ALL SOOOOO MUCH FOR THE ORDERS <3

I've never tried dual coil so I can't help you on this one, but yes, an extra wrap or two is the solution if you want to be higher. Or use a higher gaugal kanthal.

I have more than enough NT juice lying around than I can vape, so 30 ml's of 0 nic (to tame down the 18 mg half-bottles I have of CLS and an earlier batch of Frenilla) will do for now.

I'm planning on ordering Strawnilla and more Frenilla around Friday, though. It'll probably be good to let those two sit for a month - or six - while I finish the 500 ml's of other juice I have lying around. (Wakonda, Refresh, Butterscotch, Banana Pudding, Gravity, Coolcumber Mint, CLS, Creme Brulee, to name the roster).

You perhaps forgot one thing about NT flavors. Even if you don't like them, someone else here will GLADLY take them off your hands in trades.

As long as they're not 18 mg's - Doesn't seem popular in the NT swap meet thread =/

I got 65ml of each (50ml in NZ and 15ml in 6mg). I'll steep the 50ml's and enjoy the 15mls.

So steeping the NZ DOES produce improvement in flavor?!


(Man, I am so glad I'm trying an IGO-W soon alongside my AeroTank Mega and T3'D...)

I honestly don't know, this will be my first bottles of *nilla ever, but I suppose it does. Flavors always need time to blend, especially when VG is included. But since I plan on using it mostly to mix with others AND I'm hoping to lower my nic intake along the road, I figured it'd be best in NZ. It will steep "naturally".

Won't hurt it anyway.

Yeah I know that the juices with nic inevitably steep. It appears that there's not much word out right now on changes in flavor from steeping 0 nic juices. I like the idea that stuff I want to chain vape without getting dizzy off can progressively get better, but I haven't seen much to support it. =(

It's the vanilla used that makes the steep happen I think... I have NZ GCD that is turning a lovely darker color and it came with only a light golden color. By my experience steeping happens with or without nic...

Frenila will probably be back but I doubt Strawnilla will ever come back. Clark has to cut his line to 10 flavors soon and the short runs will be gone. :unsure:
Let's light torches and keep driving the FDA back so he can continue teasing us with more more more more flavors.

Is the deadline that close? I thought we were at least 18 to 24 months out and probably closer to 4 years if the lawsuits start flying. This is not good news.
