EXACTLY!!! Oh my God, I was actually coming on here to post that I got cash cola and french pipe and the cash Kona (sp?) today and they are AWEFUL!! I have had f.p. before so I KNOW it used to be good, but now it tastes like soapy flowers or something. And the cash coffee was TERRIBLE! The cola, which I bought a huge 30 ml of, does NOT taste the same as before....however, it is possible that the french pipe ruined my atomizers flavor so I'm going to have to try it in a new atomizer.

I got a 30 ml of the cola because I love it so much and I got TWO french pipes (both smell the same). The coffee I'd never had before, but I assume if it tasted like this it would never have been popular (which it was).

WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON????!!!!

Im not to familiar with juice or anything ecig for that matter still a noobie here HEHE but could it be these are left over supplies before the move and they have just been shuffled around to much?

I have a juice sampler shipment from last week should be arriving Today Tuesday and also ordered another sampler couple hours ago so I will be able to compare for yall and see if they are different.

Will let you know what I find and Im sure others that ordered the new stuff will also have some opinions in a few days.

Thanks for posting this even though I have nothing to compare from the start will be interesting to taste them all.

Cash should pop in here and try to clear some of this up. I made a $200 juice order on the 20th. So far I've tried the peach and 555 out of the many I ordered. The 555 was pretty good but the peach was totally horrible, it had no peach flavor at all, i can't even explain what it tastes like but it's not good. Thankfully it was only 10mls if they had 50ml at the time i would have been stuck with that cause the 1st round of peach was awsome. I still have yet to try the risky, banana, energee & french vanilla from that order. I hope those are better then the peach or that was alot of money wasted... I know your a big fan of the peach Cash, so what gives, I know you had to notice the difference... Any insight here would be greatly appreciated, thanks.....~Lane :)

Dude my cash cola left the most disgusting taste in my atomizer that I could NOT get rid of. It's hard to explain....like a burt plastic or something. Similar to lighting the filter accidentally when smoking an analogue. Leaves that aweful taste in your mouth that just haunts you. I had to go to a new atomizer and am going to be throwing out ALL of my 30 ml of cash cola. I'm so upset!!

Is there any way I can clean the atomizer good enough so this taste won't come back?

Alternate boiling in water (just a few minutes simmering in a pan, and then leave it to soak for 10 mins,) and rinsing with alcohol (a good swirl,) does the job for me. It can take a few cycles to get a really stinky flavour out, but it gets there in the end. Then just pop it in the oven on the lowest setting for 5-10 mins to dry it off. Try and vape it wet and you'll scare yourself to death thinking you've killed it for good - but the vapour resumed once it had dried out the one time I did that.

YMMV, but it will shift by far the pongiest flavour I use for my liqueurs (violet,) so I figure it'll shift anything.

Can't wait for my spare atomizers to come in, so I can assign flavours to them and not have to keep cleaning out the only one I've got!

As much as it nearly killed me, I skipped tonight's PS restock, and will have to refrain until this issue is addressed. :(


I skipped it as well. Something going wrong with the juice was bad enough, but this thread being ignored is even worse in my opinion. I will definitly not be purchasing liquid again, unless someone from PS at least acknowledges that some of us are having problems. :(

The same thing happened to me (20th of March order). Bad Pina Colada, 36mg that had been mixed with French Pipe/France Pipe. It was the nastiest thing I have tasted. I soaked my atomizer in RC cola for an hour, then washed it out with hot water and finally used an office air duster(compressed air) to blow out the atomizer. The foul taste was gone and I was back in business. Of course I threw out a perfectly good cart but the cart was full of that crap. I have sent PureSmoker (3):mad: customer service tickets and I have not heard a thing from them. I was able to order a few bottles of juice this morning. If these bottles are bad I will not order from PureSmoker again.
Additionally, any restocking of PureSomker should be just updated on their web site with no announcements. This would be more fair way to handle the stock and hording issues. By default, if their web site is updated at midnight or later, the East coast is left out because most of us have jobs and need to sleep a few hours before getting up and going to work. Announcing an opening with more stock just creates a Black Friday for all to fight over. Not cool.

You guys are scaring me :confused: HEHE.

I will definately try each juice sampler flavor in my disposable atomizer carts that go with my KR808D-1 kits first. Once they dry will test flavors so I dont ruin my new Pilot & Bada-Bing right out of the box.

I would suggest others do the same untill they figure this out.

I had a few flavors from before. This last round I got a sample pack and 50ml of riskee, the riskee tastes the same to me. French Pipe smells the same, haven't tried it yet. I had cash cola from before and with the sample pack and I can't tell a difference. Is there a possibilty that some of these shipments may have had drastic temp changes in shipping? If so that may explain why they may taste different. Some of you mentioned that you tried with clean atomizers, but for others I also know from experience that some flavors seem to stick on them more than others and when you start trying different flavors in a short period it tastes bad. So far I am happy with mine, and I have peach on the way (fingers crossed!).

Feeling sufficiently over my cold, I sat down tonight to give my new juices (all Menthol) a fair trial, and I have to admit it's not as bad as I feared.

First I vaped my older stock 16mg Menthol as my base. Enjoyed it as much as ever, so I felt my tastebuds were good to go forward.

Next tried the 4MG Menthol (from the 3/20 order). Excellent on the draw, tasted very good on the tongue. The inhale was a little different, tasted a miniscule bit of that perfumey taste others have mentioned, similar on the exhale. But I gave it a passing grade. As I expect this to be my long-term juice, and the one I have the most of, I'm satisfied with it.

Next tried the 11MG Menthol (from the 3/20 order), the one that I tried over the weekend and deemed "terrible." It was definitely different, a more muted menthol taste, merely OK on the draw, again with a miniscule amount of the perfumey taste on the inhale, and a bit of a waxy aftertaste on the exhale. I gave this one the longest test, and while I would no longer say it's terrible, it is different, and an entirely different personality than "my beloved menthol." If this were my first impression, I'm not sure I would order it again, and definitely wouldn't lose sleep or make myself late for work for the chance to scurry to maybe get my hands on it.

So I don't think I would conclude that the juice has "gone bad," but that something is different in the formulation. While I might accept a subtle difference in the taste between nicotine levels, I would expect a little more consistency than I found (i.e. I would not expect the 4MG and 16MG to be as similar, with the 11MG so very different).

Not sure if that helped anyone, but I felt, in view of my previous comments, I owed the thread a fair and comprehensive review.

I normally use totally wicked liquids and some others but never had such a strong dislike about any as I did these. I got 36mg Riskee, 24mg menthol and 24mg cashcap. All 3 of these were so perfume tasting and I had to use 3 different atomisers trying to get away from each one. I have let them sit in coke and washed out a few times and can still smell it. I got all of them on the 20th and just couldn't believe why everyone else thought they were so great, but at least now it sounds like that's not the norm. since so many others have experienced the same. I think I will wait a while before trying again and getting a smaller order first so I dont have 90ml. of wasted juice.

I tasted the Pina Colada froma friends 10ml bottle a while back. When I went ahead and ordered a 30ml since I thought it was fantastic, the bottle I got does NOT taste the same at all.

The first bottle tasted really strong, and very pineapple. This stuff has a bland sweetness and more coconut than anything else. I never really posted about it, and that was over a month ago.

Just got my first juice noobie here. I havnt tried Pina Colada yet but its a lot darker than the rest of my sampler bottles? Also you mention coconut my sampler came with coconut and isnt listed as a flavor?

So far the flavors I have tried taste good.

I will try those mentioned above Thurs night & let ya know how they taste.

i think I had the opposite happen, the strawberry juice I ordered before the 20th tasted odd like rose flavored hookah almost but the one I received after the 20th tasted like strawberries! it was good. And my peach does taste weird, like dirty with a powdery scent. I'm not digging it. Odd considering I love peach everything. *shrug* i'll vape em anyways!
