I think you'll enjoy your tobacco selections from ECB. When I first started vaping in Feb, I ordered the Ry4 and DK 555 in 15ml bottles and thoroughly enjoyed them both. They were fantastic with coffee and were my all day vapes. I ran out after about 1.5 weeks. I've moved on to trying the higher end suppliers and NET flavors and while some are fantastic, many tobacco juices 2-3x the price of ECB are not as good.
Let us know what you think after you've tried them!

I don't know about the other tobacco juices, but RY4 needs to steep a while. A couple days might do it for 5ml, but i usually have to wait two weeks for 15-30mls.
Ugh this steeping thing is gonna kill me. Almost like you need to buy a supply of new juice every few weeks so you can putt some to steep and use what has already been steeping.
You can always use the hot water trick too Garemlin... its not AS good as actual steeping normally, but the basic gist is you take your juices, toss them in a leakproof ziplock with the air drawn out, then into another ziplock without the air as well. Then drop the package into some hot water (I find a tad above bath temp to be about right for mine), and let them warm in the water for 15m or so (I generally go till the water is room temp), take the package out, give it a good shake, and maybe repeat.
It seems to help the flavors to blend and Steep for those of us that are impatient (like me
)
I think you'll like the EcBlends though....I got some of their RY4 and its pretty tasty. Lemme know how the two chocolate ones are...

Most of the juice I've ordered from ECB needed steeping at least a couple of days and that was after doing that warm water thing to speed up steeping time because they make them fresh...just thought I would throw that out there

Thanks!!! I'll give that a try and LYK how the chocolates are. Since you ordered from them before are they pretty quick to ship??? Where are they headquartered???
They usually ship in 2-3 business days. They are located in Oregon.
So far I really like their RY4. Not big on either of the chocolate flavors. The DK 555 isn't bad. Super Nutty is kinda dry. They also sent a freebie of Dragons Leaf which I have yet to try. Think I am gonna order a 30ml of the RY4. I have only tried a few RY4s and so far this is my favorite.
Tap'd from my Maxx

Just a follow-up. Still do not like either of the chocolates after revisiting them. The RY4 is great and I just got an order of 30ml with extra flavor. The Super Nutty actually tasted much better after a week. I could vape it if I had it but not sure if I would go out of my way to order it. Unintentional steeping made it better me thinks. The DK 555 isn't my thing. This is the second 555 I have tried and from descriptions I thought I would like it. Not the case and it is prolly the last 555 I will try. And the Dragon's Leaf (feebie) was good for a few puffs until the novelty wore off. Reminded me of a blueberry Poptart.
Trying two new sample bottles. Dragon's Cafe and Dragon's Brew.

Im a fan of there dragon series. Particularly dragons tear (think strawberry cream) and the dragons cafe (coffee). Most others ive tried are pretty decent from there as well.

The RY4 is great with extra flavor from them. They also have a flavor called RY 7 which is their RY4 and 7 Leaf(another good one). The RY 7 with extra flavor is now my all day vape. The Dragon line is great but they do need to steep.
I may give the RY7 a try the next time I order a big bottle of RY4. Could you give a little description of the taste compared to their RY4.
Just tried the Dragon's Brew after just a few days of steeping. Pretty yummy!!! It is more of a nutty, hazelnut taste than coffee with a nice vanilla undertone. But it does have a very slight dark coffee taste. Might be even better with an extra shot. This one may be the third in my regular rotation. Gonna wait a few days to try Dragon's Cafe to decide which one I will get a bigger bottle of. Then I will prolly give two more sample sizes a try including the RY7.
So far two winners from EC Blends.

Ive got a big bottle of dragons cafe and a 30 of dragons cafe with cool hit. Gives it a nice cool notto minty undertone.
Havnt tried the dragons brew yet but might on next order.

I ordered RY4, 7 Leaf, Dragon's Blood, Dragon's Delight, and a custom Peach Green Tea, all with extra flavor. They also sent a sample of Dragon's Leaf. I got them about 5 days ago but have been trying them out already.
RY4: all I get right now is vanilla. Needs more time, I think.
7 Leaf: started out flavorless but then got peppery after a few days. Today, I've noticed that its turning a greenish color (this is normal) and the pepper is subsiding while some of the tobacco is starting to show itself. Needs more steeping but I can tell its going to be good.
Dragon's Blood: very light creamy dragonfruit right away but after only a couple days the flavor increased substantially. The 5 mL's I ordered is almost gone, very good juice.
Dragon's Delight: had flavor right away but I couldn't discern what it tastes like. After a few days, it actually got quite strong and I definitely taste the peach and pear. Currently in the rotation.
Peach Green Tea: super light flavor out of the mailbox but it is increasing every day. The tea flavor is a little funky but its not bad. Letting it steep a bit longer.
Dragon's Leaf: punchy blueberry flavor with a hint of tobacco and cream. Probably won't order it next time but it is interesting for sure. 0 nic means I will probably only vape it before bed.

Ok gotta ask. Has anyone ordered the Dragon's Brew normal and then with either extra flavor or the sweetener added??? I am really liking it as is with only a few days of steeping. Almost a little hesitant of trying anything extras added as it may make it too sweet. Plan on ordering a big bottle as this stuff is very addictive and don't want to end up with a large quantity that I have to force myself to use.
Got impatient. Went ahead and ordered a 15ml bottle of Dragon's Brew with extra flavor and a shot of sweetener. Hopefully it is not too sweet. Went ahead like previous orders and grabbed a few more samples to try. Giving RY7 and Darkness a try. Prolly the last samples I will get for a while since right now I have three regular faves. Halo Tribeca, ECBlends RY4 and Dragon's Brew. Don't wanna end up with 10 different juices in regular rotation. LOL
I placed my first order with ECB four days ago and it just shipped out today. Seems like an awful long time considering I only ordered 3 items. It states on their website that current ship time is 2-4 days but normal ship time is 1-2 days. I guess they must be busy. Don't know if I'd re-order considering the wait time. Have to wait and see how good their liquid is.
I have received orders from ecb 3 days after ordering. They get busy sometimes but everything is made to order, so its acceptable for me. Heck....some places (well....one anyway) only accept orders for like 12 hours on one day and it may be 2 weeks before you get it. 4 days processing isn't outlandish.
