My Hawk Sauce has 3 flavor shots added. its not overpowering at all. Its just right in my opinion.
Roonies, I could have written this post as I am having all the same "problems". Plus I'm battling a light sinus issue that has my taste buds completely out of whack. NONE of my juices are doing it for me right now.
I want to vape fruit juice. I want something very tart and juicy right now and I don't have anything like that.
And yeah, the insomnia is making me crazy. Pretty sure I need to get some very low nic juice in my next order and get something very tart for these times when my taste buds take a temporary vacation.
I haven't had it long, but I'm not really caring for the cucumber mint too much yet. But in fairness, as I said, my tasters are out of whack. It tastes just like I'm vaping a stick of spearmint gum and really nothing more. I still have hope. But I may be PIFing this one pretty soon.
Anyway, can anyone recommend something really fruit juicy that really tastes like fruit juice?
does anyone have an experience with spearmint? I ordered some last weekend, it was made on 7/7 and i just put some in a clearo and am vaping it now. It tastes good, just not like the gum like the reviews said. I have sweetner, would this help at all or no?
edit: it's just not as sweet as the gum, it's plenty spearmint-y
I am going to follow Mowgli's advice and start off around 12.5. I wonder what constitutes and extra shot when you order the ready to vape stuff, 1% 2%? anyonehave an idea?

I'm using 15% on butterscotch. I did a test batch at 25% and it was nasty.
Mowgli- Are you using 12% on all your MBV flavors? It seems to me some of the milder flavors just need more. Some of the stronger flavors I could see at 12%.

The MBV website shows to use the flavorings at 15 to 40% so I suspect that each shot is more than 1 or 2%. I think you should just add small amounts until you get it where it needs to be for you. I allow a few days of steeping on my original batching before I try to adjust it any.

I wish mine had the powerful flavor that you speak of. I'm vaping it at 80/20, 18mg, no extra shots, and the flavor is just barely detectable. I can taste it most on the first hit after not vaping anything for 20 minutes or so. Consecutive vapes are nearly flavorless. It's really teasing me because I want so much to taste it. Mine was born on 7/9/13. Has yours steeped awhile by any chance?
I was thinking about ordering a bottle with one or two extra flavor shots but after reading your comment about the powerful flavor I'm not so sure about it. I need more flavor for sure but maybe I just got a weak mix.
Yes, the spearmint is more dominant on the cucumber mint, I'll agree. If you want something to knock your socks off that's fruity and tart, try Solar Flare. IMHO, it is out of this world!! I taste grapefruit and smartees. It will flavor your atomizer so keep a dedicated tank for this one, and I use a metal tank (mini vivi) as it's pretty citrusy. I think I'm having allergies too, and it's hotter than hell here and humid, which affects breathing in and of itself, which could be contributing to my coughing issues. They started with the heat and humidity in KC. Good luck....and I'd be interested in that cucumber mint juice, depending on ratios and nic mg. if you're interested!!
I have a 236ml bottle of Hawk Sauce @ 65/35 +2 shots and it's seriously my adv.... No matter what other flavors I play around with, HS is my go-to... I'm about 1/2 through the big bottle and I think I ordered it in June. I *mmmay* up the pg/vg ratio and lower the shot count in my next order to see if that gives me a little extra punch.. I'm in love with it so I might not... If it ain't broke, right? Lol
Edit: I use evods for my delivery devices... Don't know if that helps or not.
Evods hold up to Hawk Sauce? I thought HS was a tank melter?

This is the type of thing that keeps me orderingAnother post about what a great company this is. So a week ago I ordered 50ml of extreme ice and 30ml of Carmel Apple which was in stock at the time. I got a day latter saying sorry but it's not in stock anymore. Well I ran out of e-juice because of it and broke my 7 month streak.
I sent them a ticket about it not expecting anything, but I got a response saying they will put a note to double your order when it's back in stock. Again, what a great company and will go through them as long as I'm a vaper.

Good suggestion, I have been meaning to pick up some solar flare.
And if this cucumber mint doesn't steep more to my liking, it's yours, if you want it. It's 80pg/20vg and 18 mg.
No, it's not on the list.I've been vaping it exclusively out of my evods with zero problems.
Nope, it's been running fine in my evod for at least two months since I first ordered it.
I should say that it's been in the exact same evod the entire time for the past two months... I've only had to do a coil rinse and burn every now and then but it's never done any damage whatsoever to the reservoir holding the liquid.
