I'm an addict too, and I'm only starting week 3. :) the AiV sampler is amazing, and I haven't even tried them all yet! It's like being at a dessert table at an Italian wedding...no two are alike, but mathey're all great! I think I have to try HHV soon and will definitely be making another visit to Alice.

If you like AiV try FanceeJuice.com too! The Spinfuel sampler pack is a good way to start (in the Juicebox menu)



What other vendors have u tried?

HHV has some really really good ones ! I am going to order from AIV in a cpl weeks. I wanted to order yesterday but unfortunately I have a mortgage to pay :( I have 12 bottles of juice sitting in front of me + samples from HHV that should keep me set for a cpl months but yet I want more . I think I am joining e1 in this problem but I still think its better than analogs thousands of times over.

Hi, my name is Chris and I am a vapor juice purchasing addict. I have looked into my drawer and seen 200 different bottles of juice. I have ordered juice from six different vendors in the same month. I acknowledge that I have an problem.

That said, I have gotten myself to this point where my juice chasing and my practical side are at peace. I have a primary juice vendor (Heather's Heavenly Vapes) and a secondary juice vendor (Highbrow). I am permitted two juice orders per month. One is always from HHV. I cannot exist without Legend (the juice formerly known as Gandalf), Dragon's Fire, Serendipity, and Dark Horse. The other is alternately between Highbrow and a new vendor I wish to try. That way, I do not chase too much using this system. Making only one new juice vendor choice every sixty days (sometimes thirty) gives me a lot of time to hear feedback on good vendors, juices, etc. The hard part is finding your "go to" vendor. If you can do that, you have a chance to find balance in your juice purchasing.

I think 2 orders a month is fine I could do well on that ... the question I have, how many ml do you order ?

Many mls. Monthly order from HHV is 180-270. Generally the second order is about 100 mls. So the total is 280-370 or so. But that is for me and my girl.

Yes! What you said about finding your go-to vendor is so spot on. I stumbled on some pretty decent vendors to begin with. Watched vids looks at reviews... So I found some really good e juices to start with. But I have seen and heard so many rave reviews that always take me to new places. Some of them sadly not so good. But I have found 2 vendors that are my go to and they are VR and AIV. Best juices ever as far as I am concerned. I go have Legend.... or well... my bottle says gandalf :D and gollum. And I will give them their fair shot. Who know I may end up having 3 go to vendors. :) If gandy is good I will be trying Serendipity too.

It will be our little secret. Well and the other 2000 ECF viewers who are likely to see this at some point or another. But the habit is so much fun I refuse to feel too guilty.

You know about steeping Legend (AKA Gandalf-they had to change the name cause of Warner Brothers legal action) for at least 10 days, right? Cap off the first 24 hours after shaking, and make sure there is no air bubble in the top keeping it from "breathing", then put the cap on the next day, give it a good shake daily and leave it in a dark place for 10 days. It is okay to try it then. The juice "peaks" in its steep (depending on who you ask) at 30-45 days. I begin every day with Gandalf and black coffee. IF you like it, you will also like Serendipity and Dragon's Fire. DF is my current all day vape. If you like tobaccos, Dark Horse is a mild "mostly tobacco" flavor. Pirate's Booty is a nice variation of HHV that has a Caribbean fruit and spice subtle flavor working as well. I do love me some HHV.

I could go on like this for days. I will stop.

What VR do u reccomend mariahpoo

I have only tried there tobacco blends. And they are fantastic. I highly recommend Ky4 (their ry4 version) and applewood. The maplewood is fantastic too but I get sick of maple after 1/2 a day. Premium is there tabacco with no additional hints, good but I like a more complex tobacco. And Kmax was okay. Kinda like premium but even less complex. Still amazing in comparision to any other tobacco I have treid to date.

I can vouch for their applewood as well, it is simply incredible.
