January Boxes

[TheProphet]

What did you get?

I got:

vape Storm: Exile https://www.craftvapery.com/products/exile It's a strawberry custard so I have high hopes for it, though it has some rough competition going against Unicorn Milk and Strawnilla for my affections. Though I'm definitely glad I got one of the vape Storm flavors. The packaging looks awesome and all their flavors look fantastic, so hopefully I'll see more of them in the future.

Majestic E-juice: Royal Guardsmen https://www.craftvapery.com/products/royal-guardsman Crunch berries. I could smell it as soon as I opened the box. I also have high hopes for this one. It's shaping up to be an awesome box.

Tester: I'm so tired v3. Barrel Aged coffee. I hate drinking coffee, but I have great luck with coffee flavored vapes, so I think I'll enjoy this.

Roxy was once again my curator, and here is what she sent me:

1) 7th & Grand - Manhattan: maple pecan and maraschino cherry cocktail. Gave it a quick drip and it's pretty good. The maple pecan is a bit off, but the cherry is lovely! It starts with a bit of pecan followed by cherry and then kind of melds like a cocktail.

2) Kings Crest - Don Juan: Pecan pie. I also like this one. The pecan is more subtle than I expected, but that's good. It certainly isn't like grandma used to make (hers were the best on Earth) but it'll do for a good vape...

3) Magestic - Royal Guardsman: captain crunch berries. I haven't tried this one just yet... But. I do love cereal Vapes and if it is anything like Crunch by Teleos, then I will love it.

4) Dripped Life - The Last Stand: no card with this one, but it is a custard, I think? I have yet to test it out yet.

5) CV Tester - Norwegian Wood: peppermint bark. Oddly the packing slip said they sent golden slumbers lol. I do like peppermint bark, but I tend to avoid mint vapes, as menthol tends to give me headaches after a bit. But I will do my due diligence, suck it up (see what I did there? Lol) and give 'er a full go and review.

Thanks for the box, CV! I will, as always, post back with my final thoughts on each.

Sorry for posting back so late, yet again. Life seems to be keeping me super busy of late. I finished all of my liquid long ago... but here are my final thoughts.

In order of Best to last:

7th & Grand - Manhattan - The maraschino cherry in this is great. I really enjoyed it. I still think that the maple pecan is a touch off... But overall the flavors come together nicely and provide an all around good vape.

Kings Crest - Don Juan - I wound up liking this more than I thought that I would. I wouldn't really call this a true pecan pie, but there is quite a semblance and the maple sugar "filling" is quite good.

Majestic - Royal Guardsman - I started out not thinking too highly of this one, as I have had numerous really good crunch berry vapes and this is my least favorite so far. However, the more that I vaped it, the better it got for me. I am not sure that I would call it crunch berry, but if not held to that flavor one might consider it something different and good in its own right.

Dripped Life - The last stand - Vanilla custard. Very very vanilla flavored. A decent custard vape, but I found it difficult to vape much as this particular one seems to destroy cotton... i.e. cotton collapsing very quickly. Certainly not a bad flavor, but also not the best custard. May be easier to get in to if it didn't destroy my wick within a few drips.

CV tester - Norwegian Wood - This one is interesting. The flavor is very subtle, almost too subtle. I avoid vaping mint as it gives me headaches... but found myself wishing this one had more of the peppermint flavor. Well, more flavor all around. Not to say that the flavor wasn't there... it was just very subtle. So if I am drinking something other than water, it is hard to pull the flavor from this stuff. Also, I have tried a few times to fill out the comment page for this liquid... but I do not see its name listed in the drop down. Did the name get changed, CV??
