Must Sample List

[9ball_AJ]

I am in the long process of sampling different vendor's juices to see what I like, and hopefully find that perfect all day vape. I probably have about 100mls of different stuff to get through now, so I am in no hurry to order anything quite yet, but I am putting together a list of vendors that I absolutely must try.

First here are the vendors that I have tried (in no particular order):

Volcano
Ms. T's
BWB
vape the Rockies
Vapor Lounge (Spokane, WA Brick & Mortar Store)

Here is my current list of vendors that I MUST try based on reading these forums:

AVE
KBV (Ordered)
Copper Creek
Virgin Vapor
ECBlend
Ahlusion
Rawr
Pink Spot
The Vapor Room

For referenece here are the flavors I have tried and my one word opinion:

Volcano
- Chocanillahaze (Awesome)
- Mt. Dew (Ok)
- Blue Water Punch (Ok)
- Pineapple Punch (Very Good)
- Tobacco (Crap)

BWB
- Caramel Cappuchino (sp?) (Awesome)
- Blueberry (Very Good)
- Strawberry (Good)
- Cherry Tobacco (Good)

Vape the Rockies
- Pineapple Toffee (Awesome)
- Voluptious Vanilla (Yet to Try)
- Caramel Apple (Very Good)
- Burboun Straight Up (Ehh, not so much)
- Burboun Leaf Tobacco (Good)

Ms. T's
- Snickerdoodle (Amazing)
- Orange Dreamsicle (Ehh, not so much)
- Blueberry Cheesecake (Haven't tried)
- White Chocolate Mocha (Weak, but steeping)
- White Chocolate Rasp. Cheesecake (Haven't Tried)

Vapor Lounge
- Huckleberry (Good)

Please suggest additional vendors that I must try. I imagine I will continue to buy samples from many vendors over the next 6 months or so, and I have already found a few flavors that I will stock up on. I should also note that I think I like 60/40 to 80/20 PG/VG mixes the best, but that opinion may change over time.

Happy Vaping!!

Virginvapor for sure - annette is a great vendor and her juices have yet to disappoint me

people rave about her kona coffee milkshake - I believe it was voted #3 for juice of the year on this board. I think it's great - but prefer her EcoPure Kona Velvet Milkshake, it has more of darker, rum-like taste to me. She offers extra flavoring and I always opt for it and it has yet to be too much. I think it cuts down on potentially necessary steeping time. Her blueberry cheesecake is delicious, especially if left to mature for a week or so, the blueberry becomes less dominating and the cheesecake starts to show itself more with time.

Wow. i just reread that - sorry for rambling. definitely a victim of medicine-head today!

Nitelite Vapors-Bounty Hunter, try it when available, it's great.

 

[HzG8rGrl]

Ahlusion They have sample sizes and are willing to skype or e-mail with their customers to make sure you get the types of flavors your are seeking. Check out the stories page for more info.

what do you think about steeping this flavor? I picked up a couple oz's of it over xmas and I'm kind of saving it and letting it hang out for awhile... same with boba's bounty. Since they come so highly recommended I'm just kind of sitting on them while I wade through Annette's catalog.

I will second Virgin Vapor | Electronic Cigarette Organic e-Liquid | Electronic Cigarettes. I tried many vendors at the beginning, but have stayed with Annette now for awhile as her juices are unlike anyone else.

Thanks for the suggestion. My first impression after visiting an browsing her site is that her juices are a bit expensive. That is ok if the quality is there, and it seems like it is. A couple of things bother me though: 1) the sampler packs are not configurable for pg/vg content OR nic strength. This is important to me in a sample pack so I can decide if I like the juice configured as I would order it normally. 2)The smallest bottle available is .5oz (just under 15ml), and that is a bit big to be ordering samples.

I will definately have to try the EcoPure Caramel Kona Milkshake at least, that sounds delightful.

Again, thanks for the suggestion.

I'm not one for steeping, I don't really notice any difference. But I once let Boba's and Gorilla Juice steep for about 7 months, big mistake, they acquired a really, really strong taste of alcohol, I was actually afraid to vape them, so I had to toss about 40mls of each.

You might give Vermilion River's Kentucky Vanilla Blend a try. If it doesn't hit the spot right off, keep vaping it for a while.

 

[swedishfish]

If you like Pineapple, the Pineapple Shake from KBV is pretty good.

Non-sweet fruit type juices I like Vapor Bomb.

 

[madsen6466]

hey - I totally see your issue with the non customizable sample packs... but unless something has changed you can order a 1/4 oz bottles. that's 7.5 mL's.

Kick Bass Vapor, Rawr Vapor and Pink Spot Vapors all receive rave reviews and seem to be the most popular among veteran vapers. I have only tried Kick Bass out of these three and have enjoyed pretty much every flavor I have tried from them. But Rawr and Pink Spot are next on my list.

 

[player30]

Kick Bass Vapor Hummingbird Nectar.

 

[slovatish]

Give the BWB Applewood Tobacco a try. I think it's very good.

 

[Karla Lyle]

I'd say EC Blend. I've only tried 4 vendors so far and ECBlend is the only one that I REALLY LOVE. Also it was good right away. No steeping required although it may get better in time. I didn't think it even needed it. Really good prices too!!!

 

[CayCay]

Huge fan of Ms T but next vendor on my list is KBV. I love the gooey better cake.

 

[9ball_AJ]

Wow, thanks for the recommendations. KBV and ECBlend seem to have really good prices. I couldn't help myself and placed an order with KBV. Can anyone give an opinion on the KBV OMG flavor? I figured I had to try it. Also ordered some pineapple shake, gooey better cake and a few others.

I haven't had a chance to try my OMG yet, but it smells good. Top notes to me were espresso and butterscotch.

Yeah their website stated that it was a replacement for their caramel cappuchino, and I really liked that flavor from BWB, so I am pretty excited about it.

Not to nitpick but just so you know the owner (boB) was saying that OMG replaced caramel capp as his personal favorite all day vape, not that OMG was a replacement for their caramel capp flavor. KBV is my all time favorite juice vendor but OMG was not one of my favorites from them and I've tried over 20 of their juices. Caramel capp was my least favorite KBV juice so far. But thats just my . My personal favorites from KBV have been Mommas Angel Wings, Kick Bass Candy Bar, Troll Bridge Cookie, Hummingbird Nectar and B's Strawberry Pie. YMMV.
