I think most of the sediment issues were with the PG formula. Recently a post was made concerning one bottle of a sample set of nonPG that was cloudy. I just ordered a couple bottles of both PG and PGFREE formulas of two flavors that I use (tobacco and arctic mint). Honestly I would have trouble telling the two apart. Some say that the PGfree is sweeter. Anyway all the juice I got (including a previous sampler set) was clear and problem free. I am using JC liquid exclusively now. (for the next month anyway)

BTW The sampler is available in both the pg and pgfree formulas. Oddly it is the cheapest way to buy juice from Johnson Creek.($ 19.95 for 37 ml with 10 glass dropper bottles included) A service that they make little money on (comparatively) in order to get folks to try out the product. If I could stomach the sweet and fruity flavors I would order nothing but sampler kits to sustain my habit....

This is an older thread but figured i would say that my friend got his sampler the other day and came over with it so we could try it out.


NASTYYYYYYYYY is all we could say about it. The only flavor that was ok was the vanilla and even then its not something either of us would ever buy.

Everybody is different so you might like it but we sure didnt.

It seems with eliquid people have very different tastes (even people who like the same analog cigarettes).

I like JC juice on the whole (I had previously really liked Riskee & French Pipe, but the last time I tried them [admittedly in a different nic strength], I couldn't stand them--don't know what happened).

My reactions:
I didn't care for the Wild Cherry at all.

Strawberry was ok, Peach pretty good, peachy with a tobacco undertone -- though I'm not really one for fruity flavours.

I like Original Tobacco and Tennessee a lot.

Hickory pretty good too, but now gone.

Vanilla Ice Cream is good, didn't really taste like Vanilla ice cream though (which, for me, is just as well, since I don't really want to vape vanilla ice cream)

Didn't really like the Mint, Chocolate or Chocolate Mint much, but they're ok.


For non-JC juice, one I recently tried from a friend which I liked is Hilton.
 
I don't have other options unless I want to make my own... PG allergy.. so I just got Low nic strength Peach, Vanilla and Tenn Cured so I will let ya know what I think. I like arctic mint ok.. but pretty weak compared to Cash True Menthol which I was smoking. PS,... this is why I have not done more video reviews yet... I switched to PG juice again and have red hives all over me :(

Spikey - did you see the thread here on the Seedman's tobacco sprays? It's in the DIY section - I haven't tried them but those who have seem to like them. If you found a JC non-PG juice you didn't mind and which didn't have an overpowering flavour, maybe these sorts of flavourings would at least give you more options in terms of taste.

I did read about that spray... I may try that if I don't find a juice I like in the order that is supposed to come today. We will see. I was thinking of just mixing in REAL small amounts of PG and seeing if I can get my body to adjust to it.

lordmage.. thanks for your suggestion lol :)
 
JC Mint Chocolate Madness in the NonPG Non Nicotine has a really good throat hit for a non-nic juice. I have gone back and forth like so many other people have about fruity,vanilla,coffee, etc vs tobacco flavors. But much like beer, wine, smoking - we sort of had to learn to like those flavors. Can anyone really tell me that they like the way their mouth tastes after smoking an analog - certainly not after smoking e-cigs for a few days. Primarily I wanted to provide this post for anyone looking for a good non nic throat hit. I use a NJOY Npro and I drip and top-off. I carry two batteries and my bottle of juice in a little case...and my atomizer has been holding out well for 2 weeks now. I guess we shall see but I have not had a real cig since I started E-cigs and that was two weeks ago. Thanks for all the time that people spend sharing their stories here on the forum.

I've been using JC for months and the stuff I have received has been pretty consistent. I've used 3 large bottles of Original Tobacco in that time as well as all the stuff in the sampler, 2 large bottles of Tenn Cured and one Vanilla. I like the stuff but do have some of the pure smoker juice and other stuff for variety.I like the whole JC made in the US thing. Maybe it's just me but I like knowing where it came from and not having to worry that it's made in a factory next to vats of bug killer or something...

I've been lucky with JC too - everything has seemed pretty consistent, though admittedly I haven't tried switching nic strengths. But I do like getting puresmoker and litecig juice for variety too.

I also like knowing where the liquid is coming from, and being able to communicate directly with the manufacturer. Though I'm aware this could be a false sense of security.
