Midas: Cinnamon Roll, Toffee, RY4, and Glacial Menthol; Jameson's: Forbidden Fruit and Tanjello.
All were very good; my favorites were the Midas RY4 and their Toffee...very tasty, decent vapor, nice flavor, not perfumey. Jameson's Forbidden Fruit was also very good.
first time i've seen those two used together in a sentence. btw, my job just lost a couple cool points.
Lately glass has been more of a hobby for me. Usually I blow glass in the winter on the weekdays and gunsmith (ffl) for hobby on the weekends. Vice versa in the summer. It's just to dang hot in Houston to be slingin' molten glass year round, for me.
I've got quite the backlog right now, so I don't see switching back to glass any time soon. Not to mention I like 'smithing a bit more at the moment.
"High-end" juice for .92 cents a ML...lol...that'll be the day. I'll just keep paying Heather .43 cents, thank you.
Midas' Glacial Inferno is my must have vape. No matter what other flavors I enjoy, I always come back to this one. No matter how much I've bought, no matter the length of time between purchases and no matter the nic level, the taste is the same. There isn't even a steeping period required to get the full flavor. That to me is a mark of a higher quality product; something that tastes the same every time, all the time.

The difference between "high-end" juice and "low-end" juice is price.
There are plenty, PLENTY, of amazing juices from various brands that are as goof if not better than these $1/ml brands.
Just my input.

KBV is a good vendor. I like a few of their juices. The only Midas juice I have tried is Pink Lemonade. It's good but not one of my favorites.
Are you referring to the Vapage VMOD bottom feeder? I bought one from my LVS and loved it at first. Then it started to leak like crazy. The shop tried to help me fix the seals but it didn't help. I ended up tossing it. Anyway, mine was v1 and they have since come out with v2. I liked it so much I would consider buying the new one.

It's not hype. I live close to Vape Rev and their juices are incredible. I've been to a LOT of vape shops as they are popping up everywhere and none of them have juices that even come close!!!
Midas, Drake's, Jameson's, Mr. Goodvape and FlavorZ by Joe are my favorites.

There are some really great juices out there that are far less than $20.00 a bottle. I like some of the Halo juice but that is just taking it over the top for me. BWB has some of the best stuff on the web & they are not even close to that price. I've even found some from the starter vendors that is excellent ( Vaporsmiths coffee for one). I quit smoking because it got too costly I'm not going to spend that kind of money when I can get as good or better for less, & it's not like I'm not willing to spend the money. My vaping budget is between $200.00 & $250.00 every month , This month will be closer to $300.00
I think VapeRev actually makes Midas E-Juice. My friend manufacturers for some really large brands you've all heard of. VapeRev's ownership are marketing geniuses, and they have really talented web designer.
High-End brand nowadays = Glass Bottle & you need a separate dripper to use. Expensive Labels with a Semi-Matte Finish. Stylish Fonts, and last but not least = high price.
Don't be fooled by the glass.
VapeRev is an awesome store though, i love them, I bought my Turtle Ship mod there, and got turned on to Ben Johnson's Awesome Sauce CR3AM... good stuff.
I wasn't impressed with Jameson's - Standard - or Midas. Only juice brands I like that vape rev sells is Ben Johnson's, Epic Juice, and Mr. Good Vape... I want to try the POET brand of juice * Classified, the problem is, the flavors on the POET & Classified lines do not look tastey to me... I hate menthols & Tea flavors.
I spent a few hours at Five Pawns yesterday to film an interview and a feature (road trip diary here). After chatting with the company president, I understand the business model a bit better. The company's focus is retail and its online prices are the same as you'll find in stores; it doesn't want to undercut its retail partners with cheaper online pricing. From that perspective, $27.50 is reasonable. For example, all juices at The Vapor-Mart are $24.99 for 30ml. Five Pawns juices use premium ingredients and fancy packaging, so $2.51 more is totally reasonable.
Of course you can buy e-liquids that are as good as Five Pawns directly from online vendors at much lower prices, but that's not the business the company is going after. While $27.50 is high for online prices, it's inline with the brick-and-mortar shops that I've visited.
Just ordered Five Pawns sample pack. When I tried Gambit, I was blown away.
I haven't been vaping as long as most on EFC so can't say for certain what constitutes a "higher end" vape. I just know what I like and I'm willing to pay for it. I enjoy complex, Multi-layered flavors instead of one "hit/note" wonders. I like to call them big girl vape flavors versus kiddie flavors. But that's my taste.
Personally, except for a few, Halo to me is worth it as is Five Pawns. Their juices just tastes more complex and that more thought was put into the flavors. I do have other juices coming soon from vendors i havent tried yet so it will be cool to compare. I also have a few more vendors on my list to try after I did some research here on EFC/Internet and get my bottles down again.
I'm willing to pay more for top of the line and safe liquids. I don't want a bunch of weird chemicals being used to achieve flavor. I would have stuck w/analogs then...
I tasted the Midas juices at ECC this weekend and bought 2 of them on the spot.
Pink Lemonade and Cinnamon Blast.
I started looking online for sites that sell them and found Vaporev. Their juice prices seem inline with everyone else, but I found their equipment and accessories to be really pricy.
So I am going to search for an alternative vendor.

One thing for me is that the juice tastes better in the brick and mortar than when I get it home. It is the same for me with wine tasting. LOL
I had rather pay for the juice and not so much for fancy packaging. I have some of the nicely packaged ones and it seems such a waste when they are empty.

Ive been on a high end/boutique juice fiend lately, and I gotta be honest.. I havent been dissapointed yet.
Ive got box full of 22 dollar bottles of juice, and literally everyone of them is solid. There is DEFINITELY favorites and ones I wont buy again, but EVERYTHING is a good vape. Which is rare, in my experience.
Mr. Good Vape, The Standard, The Plume Room, P.O.E.T, and a bunch of other brands are in the mix.
I have to say that right now, Mr Good Vape and POET stand out to me as killer juice. Cant get enough. Plus my old standby, The Standard, of which every juice of theirs I love(except the banana one)..
I was hesistant to spend 22 bucks a bottle at first, but Ive had much more success in not hating half the order(or more), that now, Im actually hesitant when the juice is lower priced. I know price doesnt automatically equal quality.. but in my case, so far, the cost is justified.

Sooo...
If one was going make a list of higher end juices, they would include in no particular order:
Five Pawns
Jamison
Mr. Goodvape
Midas
Halo
POET
Ben Johnson
Halo
Flavorz by Joe
Who would you add to the list? Who would you remove? Is is based on price or quality of product (standard of ingredients, packaging, etc.)?

I do not claim to be terribly experienced with High End Juices yet but I feel like Alice in Vapeland, Vermillion River and Virgin Vapors are the best more "expensive" and complex juices I have tried. They also have what I feel like are high end packaging and flavor variety. I have also found they all have "high end" customer service. I am going to try some of the juices listed above though. Thanks for the ideas.
