I'm vaping Tropic Thunder tonight. It's the only flavor that I have from MBV that I feel needs an extra flavor shot.
I think my next order will have to contain some vanilla cupcake. Any of the regs tried it
I hear ya. I need a caffeine bump just to wake up enough to make coffee!there is no life before coffee
that is all
Halo Tribeca is awesome!! And one of my few favorite tobacco juices. Hope you like it! If not, keep me in mind as my mom and sister love it too. (I've converted both over to vaping and shared most of my 30ml with them.)The second one should be here tomorrow or Monday. I'm hoping it's better. I won a 30ml bottle of Halo juice...I chose the Tribeca...never had it...hope it's good....![]()
Haven't had much to say lately because I've been cheating on MBV, looking for fabulous tea juice for the SO. And then I HAVE to pick out stuff for myself. Oops.
AiV's teas are indeed good, as are their 2 green teas (that don't smell like weed, though to me, that's not a bad thingBest teas I've had so far are AiV's Sweet Tease and Afternoon Tea. The only tea I've had from MBV is Texas Sweet Tea, and it takes like a month for the tea flavor to come out at all, and that's when dripping, and even then it's pretty darn subtle.
I too am in love with Ahlusion's Tiramisu so I'm curious to hear if MBV's measures up.On-topic - I got my replacement for Tiramisu. It's a more appropriate color, but doesn't smell like tiramisu. I'll wait a couple of weeks before I try it to be fair. I'm spoiled by Ahlusion's Tiramisu.
LOL are you reading my mind or what??!!I've also got a ginger and a Jamaican rum on the way from MBV. I'm going to try to make a Dark and Stormy. Which for those in the know is a mixed drink made with rum and ginger beer. Recommended by 3 out of 4 sailors.
Just a heads up... I'm waiting on the co-op for the Protank 2 and Mini Protank (2) which is due to start up around mid-August. It's in the planning forum right now under Mini Protanks, but Proetus said he is willing to take it on and run with it it around mid-August and include all the new Protanks.Have you ever gotten the protanks from fasttech? I'm very curious how they are. It seems they are genuine, but at the lower price point, probably do not come with the nice carry case or extra heads. Also, keep an eye out for the protank 2, it's supposed to come out soon. Interesting new design from the looks of it.
I'd love to help you out there. My mom really liked the 555 from Smokeless Image so I'd been thinking of having her try the MBV one since some said it was decent. Not sure if she'd like the menthol one or not, and I'm very picky when it comes to tobaccos and only have a few in my rotation, but I'll PM you shortly.I have 15ml bottles of 555 and 555 menthol steeping for a month that the wife and I don't care for. Willing to send them off to a good home. 80%/20% 12mg nic. menthol barely tasted and 555 has maybe 1 ml gone.
Hawk Sauce is one of those few candy-like fruit flavors that I actually like. Probably because in my opinion anyway, it's not trying to taste like real fruitI honestly didn't taste any menthol right out of the mail, and I legit thought that everyone in the reviews had it all wrong and were reviewing hawk sauce and had actually ordered something else. It's good though. Really good. After a few weeks of steeping, the menthol came out, and it's just a coolness on the exhale. It's very light and just enough to give a cooling flavor to the liquid. To me, it tastes like a tootsie roll pop or blow pop without the tootsie roll or gum inside. Just a combination of those sweet sucker-y flavors without all the sticky. It's really good. And I miss it.
M-Type from The Plume Room is supposed to taste very much like smoking a real cigarette and has some very good reviews. I bought it for my mom, but it's not really done steeping yet. (I gave it to her after only 2 hours in the speed steeper so it needed a couple more weeks, but it was still pretty decent after the 2 weeks. It's a NET, and those usually require at least 4 weeks. But that's the thing, for the most authentic tobacco experience, you'll probably want to take your boss into the world of NETs. HHV and MOV are a couple of the best from what I hear (and my mom really loves several of the HHV NETs she's had). The Plume Room has some really good NETs too--Candied Cavendish and Honey Fig Tobacco are the ones I like, but there's also that M-Type I mentioned above. I actually like the Candied Cavendish and Honey Fig Tobacco better than the others that have a more promenent tobacco though, I prefer it more as a back note. The only other NET I really like is 15 Foot Falls from Alice in Vapeland.Now, more on topic. I've got to get some juice for him to try out. And he's not the fruit juice kinda guy. Basically, he said, "can it taste like a cigarette?" Which, I don't think MBV has "ash tray." So he says, what about jack and coke? Basically, cigarettes and jack n coke are his favorite flavors in the world. So, anybody try mixing a jack and coke from mbv? And whats a good run of the mill light cigarette tobacco flavor? Also I was thinking about just straight unflavored juice. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Read the description and this one looks interesting. "A tropical punch that is mixed with just the right amount of sour." Did it used to be called something else since I know they recently changed the name on several of their juices? Cuz I don't recall it being discussed much around here... or maybe it's a new one?
I think it's going on to my wish list anyway though. Thanks for sharing.![]()
I can't recall who has it, but there is actually a flavor out there called Ash Tray. I'll see if I can find it again. Sounds nasty to me though!![]()

I haven't tried Extreme Ice so I don't know if they're as strong by comparison, but I really like Black Ice, with Green Ice running a close second right behind it. Both of them were good right out of the mail IMO, with a very strong menthol flavor. Surprised me that I liked them that much because I never smoked menthol cigarettes (hated them, in fact!).
The Double apple is strong but not overpowering. It has a nice blend of sweet and tart, even has a bit of throat hit at low nic level. I let the bottle steep for 2 weeks and it had a bath in USC for 2 hrs.

Okay I had over 10 pages of chatter to catch up on and respond to so lots of multi-quotes below.

Hmm what's USC? Also, do you usually get flavor shots with 100%/max VG?

I recently got into carto tanks and like Cactus Breath, also have the Smoktech Pyrex DCT. Just got a couple of the DCT-2-A Nickel Mesh (filterless) cartos that arrived just the other day but haven't tried them out yet as I'm finishing up my tank of Iced Gingersnap with the current carto first. I eventually need to get a couple more tanks. Wanted to get the smaller size for my next one, though it'd mean doubling up on supplies since I'd need to get the shorter 35m cartos instead of the XL's the Smoktech takes, so I haven't fully decided which way I wanna go. I sooooo want a handblown Phiniac, but since that may not be in the budget for awhile yet, I'll probably just acquire my 2nd tank from IBTanked instead. I hear I can't go wrong there...

Ultra Sonic Cleaner, Some of us use them to speed up the steeping process.
On my DIY I put the bottles in there and leave it on for a few hours and most juices are fully steeped by then.
