hello there. Is this juice really that good or is it all about the price? I hear you have to wait 4 to 6 weeks to steep this juice. I could never wait that long to try a juice. I read so much about the price but what about the quality? Price means nothing if the quality is not there. I would like to know.

I honestly don't believe that this thread would be nearly as active and full of folks who love MBV's juices if it was only about the price.

MBV has amazing customer service.

Some of their juice is simple - some is very complex (Hawk Sauce, anyone?)

It's all just as good quality as any other juice I've tried.

As someone already mentioned, most juice needs to be steeped - it's just that some places do much of the steeping before shipping it. MBV mixes and ships fresh, and I believe that one of the main reasons the price is low is that they don't have to keep steeped stock on hand. Please note - needing to steep juice is an indicator of the age of the juice. It has nothing to do with the quality of the juice.

If you decide to try it, just be prepared to steep it. Folks here will be happy to give you guidelines on how long to steep it based on what you order - just let us know.

It does and I also have sinus issues during certain times of the year. Oddly enough they started after I moved to Florida and have been with me ever since so I tend to like stronger flavors as well. :) Speaking of strong flavors I need to try my sample of Pumpkin Spice before I make my next order on Friday to see if it warrants a 50ml bottle.

You are pushing me towards the Madagascar Vanilla, I have a sample of the Vanilla Cupcake and while it is good there is something... Bright or light or something about it that throws it off some. It's hard to describe because when I taste that one I see an image of brightness (not unpleasant just different). Yes, I am weird.

Another vote for Madagascar Vanilla here. Love the stuff.

Buying MBV is like buying a better pair of shoes at a decent price. You might pay less for similar shoes but if you don't wear them, was your money spent wisely versus spending a little more and enjoying them. I can't tell you how much juice I've brought that I got a good deal on that is still sitting on my shelf. My MVB doesn't have a chance to go to waste. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. :2c:

If you don't know about steeping, Seanchai has some good info here on ECF at http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/blogs/seanchai/5416-what-steeping-how-do-i-do.html. Also, has some tips on shortening the steeping time that may help. I know it did me.

I own several $100.00 Ralph Lauren dress shirts that my wife found on sale for 60% off. Love those shirts, and paid a fraction of what others are paying before and after the sale.

First MBV juice is a quality product. I am not new to vaping, 3 years worth of trying juice from all points of the spectrum. I've had the expensive stuff & the cheap stuff. The good & the bad,MBV falls on the high end of my scale.
Do they have juice that I don't like? Of course with that many flavors they are bound to. They also have some that are as good as any I've ever tasted. Do I buy elsewhere? Yes some, I like lots of different flavors. I do buy nearly all my juice from MBV but not all.

Seems like you are asking are they worth a try. Absolutly, & as far as steeping is concerned, just build a stockpile so that waiting a few weeks isn't a problem.

Hey all - did anyone get anything good vape related for Christmas?
I did not, but that's a good thing as they wouldn't have a clue what to get.
Madagascar vanilla is on my list for an order. I think with the bite it has it would be
a good morning vape.
As far as MBV juices go - to the poster who posted asking if it was just about price:
I was drawn to them for their SELECTION, which is HUGE. I'm still trying flavors months
and months after I ordered from them the first time. Another factor was price, yes.
As mentioned, their juices are MADE TO ORDER and take anywhere from 2 weeks to 8
weeks to steep, depending. If you don't want to take the time to steep, you're in the
wrong place. I simply order my juices a month in advance, not complicated at all.
This was not the first company I ever ordered juice from, but it is probably the last.
Occasionally I order from another company but have not done that in awhile.

I know what you mean, I also like the Vanilla Cupcake, it's also a great mixer. Due to the issue I have been having I was only able to get flavoring a while back and one of them is the Madagascar Vanilla, this is one that also needs a very long steep time similar to the time for the Tobacco's, the one I made needs about 1 more week, I had tested it last week and it wasn't ready but smells great now.

My Sinus issues were much worse in South Florida, I don't get near as many sinus infections up there in North Central Florida out on outskirts of town, I still get them but not as often and most times not as severe.

good evening Dusty.....hope Santa was good to you....I did see you are back home and that is awesome.....
Question about the vanillas.....you said that the French vanilla and vanilla ice cream were creamier than the Madagascar .....which would you recommend for adding to like caramel or cupcake to add a creamier Vape. I bought the Madagascar ....but it is still steeping.

A few things that were shocking to me. I received an SVD, A Kayfun Lite (Tobeco version) is on order, and I got an amazon gift card I used to buy two panasonic batteries for the SVD. I have wanted the SVD for months now (it is aesthetically pleasing to me). I think it is the first time anyone has shopped off of my amazon wishlist in 5 years. :D

More importantly though both my wife and daughter are extremely happy with their presents and they both really enjoyed us staying over at our Aunt's house out in the country. Will probably have to do that again as I am told our aunt was so happy we stayed over that she was crying this morning. I always feel like we are a burden when we go, apparently I was waaaay off. lol.

We also donated some other gift cards to a friend of my wife's who's husband recently lost his job. So all in all it was pretty good.

I didnt get any vape related gear I leave that to myself but I did get a train which I know is going to end up being another expensive hobby that I get into *sigh*.

As far as MBV goes I chose 4 flavors that appealed to me and gave them a shot. I liked 3 out of the 4 flavors right away and loved 2 of them as they aged. Juice is always going to be subjective asmuch as people dont like to hear it. I truly do not like AiV juices and people wait all week for the chance to order from them. I prefer to order my juice when I want it and get it three days later. While MBV is not the only juice I vape they get about 40% of my juice orders. They will almost definatly need steeping as all made to order juices do.

Well if I were to do that, actually I have, I use the French Vanilla, for me for whatever reason that one is more creamer tasting for my taste buds, not sure what it is as I didn't really care too much for the Vanilla Ice Cream which is a flavor that I love for the actual Ice Cream, it may be that the bottle I had was off a bit, but I find that the French Vanilla adds a creamer flavor but also a bit stronger then the Vanilla Ice Cream, so my personal choice would be French Vanilla. I do add the Madagascar Vanilla to a lot of other flavors but as a compliment to those flavors as opposed to using it for a creamer compliment.

As far was what I got from Santa, well that would only be the Apartment being ready. It's been a rough couple of months and honestly this is a tough time of year, which I won't delve into, been on here and watching comedies to keep things on an upbeat level.
