OK....I've been vaping "A Quiet Morning" for about 45 minutes. Here is my take so far.
-Not what I expected-I expected more of a richer tea flavor, but am pleasantly surprised by how light and subtle the tea is. A hot tea, if you will (the vape itself is not hot...just reminds me of the taste of hot tea).
-The fruitiness is fantastic. You only taste it on the exhale. It's perfect. Not a candy like fake flavor. Tastes like real fruit. If you've ever had a fruit infused hot tea...it tastes a bit like that. Almost cherry like. I think it's supposed to be passionfruit.
-Throat Hit-great for me....but I ordered it at 24mg nic. It's not going to be a "morning vape" since I tend to need really strong stuff in the morning, but this is going to be a great "most of the day" vape. I know it's got the word 'morning' in the title, but I think I will like this one for mainly evening time. On a scale of 1-10...this juice has a 4 or 5 on the throat hit as far as strength goes.
-Vapor clouds are great. The liquid seems to be a bit thick, although it's clear. I'm guessing this is a high VG juice. I'm vaping it on my Vision Spinner 1300mah at just shy of 3.9 volts. Got more flavor at 3.7 volts, but not as much vapor. 3.9 seems to be the perfect balance here. Turned it up to 4.0...that did not taste good. A delicate juice, but also consistent if you know how to treat it.
Using it in my Kanger ProTank mini 2 at 2.2ohms.
Will need to vape the rest of the sample to determine if I will order this again. But so far, I am pleased, and glad to finally be tasting this wonderful juice.

I read your review, yours is better and you were able to verbalize things better than myself. Kudos to you!
I did try to start my morning with this juice, but was just too mild to have with my coffee. Stepped it up with a Black Licorice/Wild Cherry/Extreme Ice mixture that I mixed myself with juices from MBV. Will start vaping "A Quiet Morning" again after coffee is drank and teeth are brushed (I'm having a bit of a lazy morning...it's raining and storming and temps in the mid 70's...and yes, we just had snow last week!!!).
Just got my first AiV order also. Getting ready to try my first one. I ordered the "delectable sampler", or whatever it's called with A Quiet Morning, Frost Blossom, Cherry Blossom Tea, Afternoon Tea, and April Moon. Apart from that I also went ahead and took a gamble and got a bigger bottle of Lucky No. 11
So I've decided that "A Quiet Morning" is definitely going to be on my re-order list when she opens up again on 11/26. Excellent. I vaped the entire 3ml sample in less than 24 hours, with only using another flavor with my coffee this morning. I'm sad that it's gone, but glad to know I have a new go-to juice.
For my second choice...I am now vaping "Orange Creamsicle". This is my first venture into a "Creamy" type of flavor. Let me vape a bit and I will share my thoughts for anyone who is interested.

I would like to try Frost Blossom in the future. I have April Moon here and will sample it soon.
And...I saw the Lucky No. 11 and I DEFINITELY am going to order some when she opens again!I have some Lavender juice from MBV. I have to hand it to them, it smells and tastes like REAL lavender. Which is a bit harsh, actually, and I can't really vape it.
Tell me more about your take on Lavender Ever After?
Lavender Ever After is a wonderful slightly sweet gelatto with lavender.....I was kind of afraid of trying it after a couple of BAD floral type vapes from other vendors...but it has a nice comforting flavor not harsh, medicinal or bitter.
Does anyone know what AiV's PG/VG ratio normally is? Or are they one of those companies where it differs depending on the juice? If so then I love the flavor of Lucky No.11 but I think for me it could use some more VG for vapor production.
You can ask for a custom PG/VG ratio when ordering. I trust their mix, however. I prefer flavor over clouds.
It does differ with the juice but as has been stated you can request changes when ordering larger bottles (not c-room or samples)
So, I've been puffing on Orange Creamsicle for almost a couple hours now. Here is my review.
Flavor: This really does taste like Orange Creamsicle. No doubt about it. I would say it's a good balance of orange and cream. One minute I think it's more orangey, the next, more creamy? Not sure...so I think that makes it even. It is VERY sweet. This will not be an all day or even an every day vape for me. A good one for dessert after dinner.
Throat Hit: Stronger throat hit than A Quiet Morning. Probably rates a 6 on the throat hit scale. Pretty nice. (Also ordered this at 24mg nic). Very satisfying.
Vapor Production/Viscosity: Pretty decent clouds. A little less than A Quiet Morning (sorry, it's the only AiV juice I've tried before this one). This liquid is also a bit thinner, and I am guessing has higher PG than VG. And although I wouldn't call this a dark colored juice, it does seem to have an orangish tint to it. Does not seem to be an atty clogging juice. Have smoked a pro tank mini full of it so far.
Used on my Vision Spinner at 3.8 volts on a PT mini at 2.2 ohms.
Vape-a-licious. But probably will not order again just because its so very sweet. I think many fans of sweet juices are going to love this.

I am a woman obsessed. Just ordered the 30ml bottle of A Quiet Morning from GiantVapes. Yay. Glad I don't have to wait for Alice to open up for that one.
Additionally, I am still trying to vape the rest of a tank of Orange Creamsicle. This one is sticky sweet. Not going to re-order. But kudos to you if you like sweet stuff.

Well,
I have sampled 3 more juices. I have also received an additional juice, Mystic Mandalime, that I have not tasted yet.
The next juice I've sampled was Fifteen Foot Falls.
Unfortunately, I do not have a good review on this one......not because of quality, but likely because of personal taste.
I vaped this on 3.7 and 3.8 volts on my vision spinner at 2.2 ohms. Used a fresh coil. This liquid should be vaped at low volts...does not need a lot to get it going.
Throat hit: Very good. Probably rate this one a 7.5 or an 8 on the throat hit strength scale. Woo Hoo.
Vapor Clouds: Medium. If you are a cloud chaser, this one may not be for you. It was sufficient enough for me, however. Just didn't fill the room. But was plenty.
Flavor: This is where I had an issue. You know that delicious and lovely smell of a campfire, mixed with autumn leaves, mixed with burnt marshmallows? That is exactly what this tastes like. I believe this is exactly what Alice wanted it to taste like. However, I do not like tasting this in my mouth. I love the way it smells, and I will go to a campfire any day! But I don't think it's something I want to vape. For this reason, I did not vape the entire tank. I just couldn't plow through it. It's also a very dark colored vape...potentially atty clogging.
I don't want to be unfair...I'm sure it's a great vape for many. It has excellent reviews. Taste, however, is subjective. This one just didn't tickle my fancy.
The next one I tried was Lemon Loves Cake. Vaped on 3.6-3.8 volts on my spinner with a fresh coil at 2.2 ohms.
Throat Hit: Not bad. Would prob rate this at a 6.5 or 7 on the throat hit strength.
Vapor Clouds: Pretty darn good! Filled my general area with clouds. Very lovely.
Flavor: Same feelings I had for Fifteen Foot Falls. Had a dark flavor to it, if that makes sense. I barely tasted any lemon. Definitely tasted like cake, perhaps a hint of icing. I was also surprised at how darkly colored this juice was. Will not be ordering again.
On to the next one: Pun'kin Tumble. YUM.
So glad I enjoyed this one after 2 disappoints with Lemon Loves Cake and 15ft Falls.
I found this one tasted best on my spinner at just shy of 3.8 volts, 2.2 ohms.
Throat Hit: On a scale of 1-10, I rate this one a 6 on throat hit strength. Just fine for me.
Vapor Clouds: Medium. Fills my general area. I think this is a high PG juice, that could explain lack of huge clouds. I'm not a huge cloud chaser, so this worked well for me.
Flavor: DELICIOUS. It's not super pumpkin-y. More like spice cake or a pumpkin/spice bread. I taste nutmeg, perhaps a slight hint of clove, maybe only the smallest speck of cinnamon. And of course a subtle background of pumpkin. This leaves a wonderful taste in your mouth post-vape. Very smooth, mellow, and wonderful. This is going to be awesome with morning coffee. I'm glad this one was so good because right after I ordered my sample pack, I found a coupon for 15% off Pun'kin Tumble, so I thought what the heck, and placed a second order on an 18ml bottle of it the same night. Glad I did. It just arrived today, and I'm glad to know I will have enough to last me a while. Also, this juice has an orange tint to it, but not dark like the previous two, so that makes me feel good about using it on my attys.
Next up...Mystic Mandaline! Will prob sample this one tomorrow night. I will keep everyone posted!

I just tried 15 foot falls for the first time yesterday. Youre spot on. I thought "this tastes like a camp fire". Weird. Mine is only about a week old, Ill maybe try again after another couple weeks
Nice reviews
Nice reviews
It varies with each flavor. You can however ask for 90%+ VG. I did this for my first few orders (I find PG dries me out too much) and then accidently forgot to do so one day when I ordered. Found the standard "Alice" mixes where high enough VG for me. I just place standard orders these days as I trust the Alice mixologists.
I find you have to be in the mood for 15 Foot Falls, a cold Autumn night lends itself to this flavor. It is also one of the few from Alice that I think needs a bit of steeping. Try it in a week or two.
It sounds like you love A Quiet Morning (as do I!) - you will most likely very much enjoy Mystic Mandalime.

Thank you!
I'm having fun writing them and sharing my thoughts. I ordered some more "Quiet Morning" from Giant Vapes and just got it today...and they sent me 4 free samples of their own juices! So I will probably review them next...but may start a new thread for that one since it's not AiV.
