Very nice. Although I feel kind of bad for the Lil Mama, sitting next to that thing of beauty. ;)

I'm surprised how much I like the pie, I typically don't vape dessert juice. But the witch doctor nailed that one...tastes just like pie filing. The black currant is going right up there with my favorite fruit vapes....reminds me exactly of the black currant iced tea I brew.
SD I highly doubt the pie will last till Disney...I'd be surprised if it lasts till tomorrow lol. But let me know what you need, I'll bring you some supplies to keep you going. Can't have you running out of stuff halfway through vacation.

Why thank you, Ever! I'm really looking forward to the Black Currant. I think as part of my next CC purchase, I will have to add in a 30ml of Black Currant Sweet Tea with "The Pie." Truth be told, I am an avid unsweetened tea drinker, which I'm sure will get me plenty of odd looks in the south. So I kind of prefer to vape the teas fresh rather than steeped. But they are stellar both ways.

I am thinking my only issue over vacation will be cartos. I kind of hoard juice and should be okay on that front. :laugh: But I will most definitely be bringing you a 6ml of straight Black Raspberry as well as the Black Raspberry Lemonade. I have a 120ml mini jug of straight Black Raspberry that I am only about a quarter of the way through. It's interesting, though. In the betas FV released, the Black Raspberry would eventually take on a light pink hue. But with the mini jug, it's just stayed in that yellow phase. It's best once it turns pink, I recall, and I'm wondering if it's not just because of the size of the bottle? Either way, it's still amazing, and my favorite CC juice thusfar.

SD, Don't know why but if I leave my watermelon flavor out for a couple of days sitting on a counter or my desk it start to lose flavor, but if I keep it in the refridge and take it out and let it warm up to use and put it back in the refridge, the flavor stays the same for the whole bottle....I have always kept my juices in the fridge in sealed containers and never had a problem with them. Now if the flavor sucks, it is because the juice was sucky to begin with...lol
just my 2 pennies..,
:)

I've had a 30ml of Watermelon since October... Only gone about halfway through it. I like it, but it's a bit sweet to be a "true watermelon", IMHO. Which differs greatly from FV's other juices. I have a hardware organizer with a bunch of little drawers that I keep in my closet that I store all my juices in... Never had a CC juice fade, so I'm wondering if there was something curious about the batch you ordered from, Sug. In fact I brought out my Watermelon the other day, and the flavor has gotten more intense? I have never kept my juices in the fridge.

I really like House, but it is too much for me to be an all-day vape. Most dark juices are. To give you somewhat of an idea...
:D
I have the coffee sample pack from CC on the way. It just shipped today. I ordered it this past Monday. Ty sent me a bottle of House at 12 ml. I thought I wouldn't taste it because I vape 18 to 24. But the flavor is real good at 12. I'm going to order a big bottle next time. I really love that house of theirs. Yummy!

I have not found a vendor I like more than Copper Creek, all around. I have tried some vendors who have certain juices I like (Vapealicious, Virgin Vapor, Rawr) but Copper Creek is my go-to vendor. I know I will never be disappointed by anything FlyingV comes out with, hence why I just havehavehave to try all her new flavors, every time. Even if it sounds like something I won't like, I usually end up surprising myself. Like the Copper Creek Coffee, for instance. Haven't liked coffee vapes since about a month or so after I started vaping. But I love her Coffee. :wub:

I better try some Copper Creek coffee :p

Well maybe I'll keep the pic up for awhile. It hides all my wrinkles.;) I was talking about filling cartos straight up. With the tank I can only get maybe two or three runs with the coffee's. The first run is always perfect. I can get more runs off the same carto in the tank, too. I dunno. I think it's the flavored coffees that fill up the voids in the filler reeal fast and it just can't absord and go's flat. I'm still workin on tank refills and getting the top on just right so I don't get that stupid girgle/flood thing going on. And yes, I have watched dinos videos. It's all about that "bubble" that I NEVER see when I reload. :blink::blink:

If you're not seeing the bubble, I wonder if it's filled too low or too high? Sometimes if I don't fill it enough, the 'bubble' will be huge and look like a gap in juice. If it's filled too high, it will be nonexistent. It's all about that healthy medium.

The watermelon I got was from here Quick nic Juice Watermelon flavored e-liquid 15ml bottle.. And yes, I like the jolly rancher type. Maybe that is the diff...lol

It's funny, but the House is awesome no matter what you vape. As it steeps, I taste a creamy coffee, followed by cookie dough. Mr. SD who is an avid tobacco vaper with a distaste for sweet vapes, is addicted to House. His all-day is a 50/50 of House and BWB's Casablanca.

I better try some Copper Creek coffee :p

Good choice!

Hello Lavacorps...

I just got home from work and found my new "Lava" colored Lava Tank had come today. :)
I also got a box from Grammie. The tube on the lava tank is one she sent me with a fill screw in it. :)

Fran...that is gorgeous! I like that you can hardly see the fill hole in the tube. That's what I need. I think it would solve my filling problems. I just didn't like the fill holes I've seen with big honkin screws sticking out.:ohmy:

Here is a pic that shows the fill screw. I was trying not to show it in the other pics.

SD-is casablanca a coffee type? Gad..BWB was my go to for so long for espresso and cappachino. Then the last two times I ordered, they were not the same. I was so disappointed. That's why I'm reaching out and trying new vendors for coffees.

It's a Turkish tobacco vape with sweet undertones. I completely understand that. Mr. SD ordered 6 30ml's back in July and they were pristine. He just had to re-order a couple weeks ago... The color is completely different and instead of a subtly sweet, pleasant tobacco vape... It tastes smoky now. Not at all pleasant in my opinion. He's gotten used to it, but I feel kind of bad for him. It's even a totally different color. Whereas his other bottles were a deep brown, these are a frankly somewhat nasty yellow color.

As an add-on to this, another reason I adore FV's juices is that with VERY minimal exceptions, she boasts a very good consistency record IMHO. And if there was anything off about her juice, I know I could tell her and she would fix it immediately. Chief is the same way with his shop. In contrast, I PM'ed Don concerning the differences in the Casablanca as well as a question as to when his RY4 would come available again... He answered me back concerning the RY4, never got a response or even a acknowledgment with the difference in the Casa. Disappointing, to say the least.

I did forget to mention one thing.
When I order big bottles they take forever to completely steep. So I transfer some to a smaller bottle and it steeps faster plus its easier to use.
