So i just got my bottle of Maha Ras today and to be honest i'm not that impressed. the flavor is (to me) like charcoal smoked black cherry :unsure: (taste just like a cherry flavored hookah) I've tried it in two different drippers, one with a cotton wick and the other a silica, same taste.

Does this flavor develop after a few weeks of steeping?

I just got mine today as well. The aroma and flavor is quite odd and could be REALLY off-putting to some people, but I like it.
Tastes and smells like sandalwood and strawberries plus some citrus. I've got it in a regular old T3 right now. I'm aware that it might react to the plastic tank. No biggie.

I imagine this will benefit from a few weeks of age. The 710 I got last month has definitely mellowed and tastes better than the day it arrived, and I liked it quite a bit even then.

I'll eventually get some Pluid, but I'm not gonna camp out on the website to get it.

310Vapers, so i'm sure it's legit.

It doesn't have any weird taste associated with silica or cotton I think it's more so I just don't care for the flavor. I'm working on a trade right now to try some pluid so we'll see how that goes. I might hold on to 30-60ml of it to let it steep for a bit and see how i like it then.

Yep, mine came from 310vapers as well. I do like it as-is but I'm sure it will change within a few weeks.
It's awful purty too.

Did you give the 710 a couple weeks to steep? It mellowed a lot. Then again, I'm of the opinion that if you don't
like a flavor AT ALL upon first tasting it, then steeping probably isn't going to change your mind.

710 had an almost overpowering sharpness that muted the sweetness, but after about 2-3 weeks that has lessened
and it's much more delicious. Maha Ras has an almost medicinal quality that I'm betting (hoping) will also lessen
with steeping.

That said, I don't find either of them good enough to want to keep in supply. But the flavors are unique enough
that I DO feel like I have to try some Pluid eventually, and whatever else Murdock comes up with.

All of murdocks juices are an aquired taste. First impressions aren't amazing but vape a whole tank of them and your screwed. This is why I keep a 100ml stock of pluid and 710 at all times. 710 is 100000 times better steeped and actually darkens up a little. More sweet and creamy after about 2 weeks
