Dang, so my last order was just a bag full of winners. I was hoping there would be at least a couple in there I couldn't work with. No such luck. Everything at 65/35, 0 shots (except for Whipped Cream), 6mg, 1-day no cap, 1-week steep, shaken twice daily:
Butterscotch: I've had butterscotch from a couple of other vendors, and they always ended up tasting more like a butterscotch syrup, like the kind you might put on ice cream. That's not what I've been looking for. This is what I've been looking for. Just like those little Brach's candies I used to scarf as a kid. Instant addition to the Big Bottle list.
Cake (Yellow): I fully expected this one to taste funky, and it didn't disappoint. It's got the same weird bakery note on the exhale that I've gotten from every other cake-type juice I've tried, even the ones from the so-called "gourmet" vendors. Best way I can describe it is raw dough. Do not want. I put five drops of MBV Madagascar Vanilla (the flavoring) and two drops of MBV sweetener in a 5ml batch of it and the flavor improved immensely. On a hunch, I proceeded to sub 2ml of some Volcano Milk Chocolate I had laying around for the vanilla in another 5ml mixer and it flew clear off the awesome scale. Need to try more MBV chocolates to see if I can find a suitable mixing partner for this stuff. Until then, it's at the bottom of the list.
Root Beer: There it is. It's root beer. All it's missing is the fizz. More like the root beer barrel candies. Love it as an occasional, so will keep the bottle small.
Ecto Cooler: My favorite out of the bunch, easily. I haven't yet decided whether getting this in 6mg was a wise choice, because I've been vaping it at an alarming rate. I love all things orange, and this scratches a citrus itch that I didn't even know I had until I tried it. My Big Bottle list is getting silly at this point.
Whipped Cream: I got this in a 20/80 mix with 2 shots. A mildly sweet, fluffy vapor. Yes, I called it fluffy. This one is replacing Sweet Cream as my mixer of choice. 2 shots is a little much for me, even with all that VG, so I'll go with 1 next time to neutralize it a bit more.
Surprise Grape: Not sure what the surprise is supposed to be, but I'm certainly surprised I haven't vaped more of this than I have. Oh yeah... Ecto Cooler and Butterscotch... Really awesome candy grape flavor, like gummy grapes. Gave a buddy half my bottle, and he's placing his first MBV order soon just for this. I fully intend to collect with interest when his Big Bottle arrives.
Gonna dive headlong into some chocolates next, but I need to go through some of this juice first. Maybe something in there can dethrone my current champion, Hot Chocolate.
