I must say it's one of my favorites and the longer it ages the better it gets.

My order of preference although I like them all. :D

1. Atomic Cinacide (exactly like big red gum)
2. Cafe Macchiato (great in the morning, mellow with complex coffee flavors)
3. German Chocolate Cake (like eating cake I swear)
4. Bananas Foster/Tasty Finger (mellow not too sweet)
5. Blueberry Cheesecake (nice blueberry and slight cake)

I was split between the two the added spice is what steered me to the machiato

If you select "custom" and look at the list of flavors to choose from he has Coffee. No idea what that's like by itself and I haven't heard of anyone trying it that way. I was thinking of maybe doing either a straight coffee or coffee with chocolate and mint -- looking for something with no dairy and a thinner "clean" vape (I drink my coffee black -- dairy is good, but sometimes I just find it a bit thick/sweet).

I really like the Cafe Macchiato, just got it 2 days ago and I know it will be even better next week. Sometimes I get more of a taste of the spice and sometimes more of the caramel. It also has a nice aftertaste. Tho I must admit I have a hard time putting down the AC long enough to vape anything else. I'm thinking of adding a few drops of my DIY Double Chocolate to the Macchiato in a different bottle so that I have Mocha as well. Has anyone tried anything like this?

I drink my coffee almost white (and iced). I ordered coffee and dairy when DIY was the FOTW. It tastes (and smells) exactly like good, medium-roast coffee. My problem is that the coffee flavor is still too strong for me (and I don't like the dairy) but it will make a good mixer. If you like black coffee, you should love it.

Well that's what scares me. I did a diy of coffee chocolate and banana cream and the coffee taste was bitter and burnt tasting. I'm just praying it was my recipe. Geoff wrote to tell me he was adding more caramel than coffee because I put in the order comments I wanted it smooth and sweet like a coffee nip candy!
We shall see I trust the TV team. I should get it Tue it shipped this weekend!

And I wish he had an espresso LOL!
Everyone has their own tastes ha? :)

You can get Expresso if you want, just leave them a note that you want strong strong coffee. But, beware, it IS strong STRONG coffee (a bit bitter like expresso). Just order some of the sweetner along with your order and you can take the worst of the bitter away (if you want). :D

Got my macchiato today so far I only taste the coffee. I know it's gotta age a bit going to add some sweetner and then let it age sure beats the hell out of my poor attempt on the DIY! I think I'll like it a lot more in a week or so doesn't taste burnt like mine did! Great job once again TV!
Now I have to try my others in the order TF and MCC! Also another BNB to mix with the doubler

I like the macchiato a lot. I liked it from day one, though it did improve slightly with age. It's a fairly robust coffee flavor with a hint of milk taste. No sweetness. If you like coffee with milk but no sugar, you'll probably enjoy this.

I prefer vaping it hot (pulling long to let the atty heat up). Gives it more of a feeling of hot coffee.

Great morning vape.

Oh, and the mint chocolate chip cookie, which I just got today, is another great flavor.

Got Cafe Mocha today.

So far very "espresso" and very little "mocha" but 1) it's brand new and 2) personal preference will always play its part.

I mixed in a little butter cream and it's much smoother.

Yes. I *really* like it. One of my 3 favorites at the moment but at times I find it too thick/dairy, too much cream. Just like when you're about done with your 3rd real cafe mocha and your mouth starts to get sort of sticky :)

[edit] Forgot to mention that Geoff said they're happy to adjust things. Just describe what you want in the comments when you order. Like "More Cream please"
