Johnson Creek Smoke Juice: New & Improved - Comment, anyone?

[booboo]

Smoking a regular cig would taste better then this, heck makes me wanna find an old ashtray and lick it just to get the flavor out of my mouth.

lol

Been using the artic from JC for about 2 weeks now and haven't had a dead atty yet. But I do get a throat hit from it with a fresh battery with my 510. My next order will be placed with someone local that have been getting good reviews.

I haven't read thru this whole thread- but I seem like I am among the minority here. I like some of the new formula. That being said the new formula sample back was my first time to try reduced PG juice. I may like the reduced PG taste better than PG. Luckily I stocked up on the old formula JC so I have alot of it- I find me vaping the new stuff as much as the old.

I really like the new strawberry- and the chocolate was pretty good too. luckily tho I have the option to vape the old formula too- but im enjoying the new stuff for the most part

i'm a fan of their new french vanilla flavor... all though it's very sweet and i can only vape on it occasionally. it tastes awesome if you cut it with a coca cola flavor!

I am starting to realize how everyone's tastes are soooooo different! It doesn't seem possible to take others word for taste unless you know for a fact you agree with their other likes and dislikes.

I have only been vaping for 38 days, but tried various flavors of juice from 3 vendors so far...

That being said, I really like some flavors like: the original, arctic mint/menthol, chocolate mint, and french vanilla.

Ten cured I think for me could go either way, some times I liked it, and some times it seemed to have a chemical taste to it that I didn't like.

I am a big coffee drinker, and tried the espresso having high expectations for it... IMO, it was horrible and nothing like coffee or espresso to me.

Although the only issue that i had is that its flavor dominated my entire pv. I changed carts, flavors, etc and it still had an espresso flavor to it. I finally had to change atomizers and clean the one I had been using.

I ran into this as well with the espresso flavor. The fact that I hated the taste did not make it any better. No matter what I did, I couldn't get the taste out. It ruined my taste testing for the rest of the night...

I still havnt tried all of them, but there are definatley some good ones in there. I am now giving each flavor a few days of on/off testing to see if I like them, I will report back with the rest at some point I am sure.

You are so right. Personally, I absolutely love the new Tennessee Cured. I was on the fence about the old formula. It was OK. But I preferred the JC Original Tobacco flavor.

With the new formula, my preference has switched in a major way. TC is, by far, my favorite. But I see others who detest it with a fiery passion. So taste is purely subjective, and anyone's opinion on it should be taken with a grain of salt.

I definitely agree with you on the coffee flavor. It's not just JC's coffee flavor; I've tried others. To me, that flavor just should not be vaped. It totally ruined an atty for me. I could never get that taste out of it. And I love the taste and smell of coffee. So it seemed logical that I would like the coffee liquids.

(But, again, take that for what it's worth. Others might just love the coffee flavors.)

I bought TC reduced PG two weeks ago & LOVED it. Vaped only JC liquids (TC, Chocolate, which I loved & 'Original' which was chemmy & nasty) for 2+ weeks with no atty problems. Got another order of TC a few days ago & unfortunately it tastes like the 'Original' I got two weeks ago- super chemically & nasty. How could the TC have changed in a 2 week period? Perhaps not thoroughly cleaning mixing containers? I don't know, but if I could get the TC I had 2 weeks ago I'd stock up... Just disappointed now.

I don't know anything about the old formula, but I currently use Johnson Creek smoke juice and I love it (and I'm not noticing any trouble with my 901 attys getting clogged). I started with a sample pack, but now I have several 15ml bottles. The only reduced PG flavor I ever tried was French Vanilla and I don't like it much, however, I love the PG French Vanilla. So because of that I've never bought any other reduced PG from them. My other favorite flavors are Black Cherry, Simply Strawberry, Espresso, and JC Original.

For those of you that have gotten the sample kit.... what size are the bottles in that kit?

Thanks

The size isn't marked on them (and it doesn't say on the site), but I'm pretty sure they're 3ml bottles.

For some reason I thought they were 3.7ml but I could be wrong.

I ordered the Johnson Creek Sample, it arrived earlier this month, and so far there haven't been any issues. The flavors are great, the dropper bottles are definitely handy, though some of them don't screw on completely straight, but still do the trick. I didn't know about the green changing, I'll keep an eye out for that and let you guys know. The color is dark though, but then again, so were the sample bottles I got from cignot. I'm guessing dark and not green is better than green.

I have to say though, I don't taste much difference between ten cured or JC, find the flavors to be mild. I drip, so the atty maintains some flavor of the last one I used last, but that goes away after a few redrips. I clean my atty once a week and so far it doesn't show any signs of wear and tear yet. Again, I'll keep this thread posted.

As for battery damage, I'm still new and have no idea how dripping into the atty would affect the battery as I use manuals and am very careful not to flood it (2 drop limit per session, less if I'm not sure). If I find anything though, I'll post it.

For some reason I thought they were 3.7ml but I could be wrong.

Could you be thinking of the voltage of the battery you're using? It's possible that they're 3.7ml, but I don't believe much in coincidence, so I had to ask.

umop apisdn- Just to let you know, this thread was started over a year ago. I think the problems you're referring to are issues that have been cleared up. Anyone still having liquid going green probably have stuff that's older - that perhaps their supplier has had hanging around for a while. There's even a place online still selling bottles of the old formula.

And the bottles from the sample set are about 3.7ml each.

I have used JC's juice for about 3 months now. Tenn cured, Artic Mint, Summer Peach, Mint Choco, and Black Cherry. Again taste being different to everyone, I dig em all. REASONS!!! American Co., Price, shipping, child safety cap, with each bottle you get a very nice 3mil bottle, eye dropper.. You get the point. Nothing i don't like about em. But to each his/her own. I have never had any problems with quality, vapor, TH. I have bought enough juice around to say that Johnson Creek is in my top three. Just my opinion.

I am on my third order of JC. I use exclusively reduced PG formula's. My favorite by far is the Tennessee Cured. I have tried the following flavors

Strawberry
Vanilla
Espresso
Peach
Tennessee Cured

All three orders have been shipped to me within 48 hours of ordering.

I have always had an instant notification email after ordering and a shipping conformation email usually sent by 10am next business day.

As far as atomizer problems, haven't had any. I do clean them out regularly, depending on use. I have been vaping for about a month and I am still on my orginal atty's for my SS Choice No 7. My M401 I have had for about a week now and haven't even cleaned the atty once. No reduced performance at all on the 401.

I also drip exclusively, no carts.

My review, JC is by far the best I have tried yet.
