Ok....here is the lastest on my journey down the AiV rabbit hole.....
April Moon: I ordered a sample of this because it said it was an apricot and berry-ish flavor. I've tried at least 3 or 4 berry flavors from other vendors and have been grossed out each time. I ordered this sample from Alice because I thought I would enjoy the apricot, and that perhaps I would enjoy the berry more with Alice, since her juices are probably of higher quality than the others I've been vaping.
I will say, that with this juice, it is still high quality and will be GREAT for lovers of the berry flavor. Unfortunately, I am not a fan because the berry just ruined it for me...the berry part tasted like the other berry juices I've tried. I did love the apricot aspect of this juice, however...and I think it would be great if she did like an Apricot Jam flavored juice, maybe add a cream flavor to it, that would be tasty.
It was definitely worth a sample. If you like fruit and berries, this is the juice for you.
I vaped it at 2.2 ohms on a mini protank at 3.7volts on my spinner. With 24mg nicotine, this combination gave good throat hit (Would score it a 6 out of a 10 point throat hit strength scale) and good flavor. Vapor clouds were of medium rating, which is good for me. You may get different clouds/flavor based on which topper you use. But I'm a ProTank girl.
Highly recommend this quality juice. Just does not fit my personal pallet. If AiV can't make me like berries, no one can!
To my next and FINAL AiV sample: Mystic Mandalime
SOOOOO TASTY. I can't put into words how delicious this is.
Again, vaped on Mini ProTank at 2.2ohm. Got it on my spinner at 3.7 volts. Alices juices sure are easy on your batteries...they don't seem to need a lot of heat to get going. I also tried it on just my regular old egos (non-variable voltage) so that's awesome. Can save the wear on my spinners this way. Woo hoo!
Throat Hit: Great hit...as I've noticed with many citrusy flavors. Probably rate this as a 7 or 8 on the throat hit strength scale. Yeah!
Clouds: Differs with the voltage, but at 3.7 volts at 2.2ohms, I got great clouds out of this. I do think this is a higher PG juice but still got medium-high vapor clouds with it. Awesome!
Taste: This is the best part of this juice! It is called "Mystic Mandalime", indicating it is mandarin and lime, with a hint of something mysterious. This is a perfect way to describe it. I taste the mandarin and the lime, and they work so well together. But there is something else in the background of this juice that I just cannot place. I cannot describe it. It's a strange and delightful sweetness that is familiar. It's wonderful and I never want it to end!
I will definitely order "Mystic Mandalime" again. This juice is GREAT! Especially if you are a citrus lover, but you are sick of the same old regular stuff.
Alice opens again next Tuesday. Here is what I'm going to order:
Lucky No 11 (I keep hearing awesome stuff about this one, gotta try!) It only comes in 7ml bottles.
Pun'kin Tumble 18ml ( still have an almost full bottle of this but it's so good. It's becoming an ADV)
Mystic Mandalime 30ml (for reasons stated above)
And MAYBE some more Quiet Morning. I still have an almost full bottle of it that I ordered from Giant Vapes, but it can't hurt to have another 18ml, right? Not sure, I will think on this one. I know she usually throws in a few samples with larger orders, so I may ask her for samples of Cherry Blossom Tea (I'm new to tea flavors and very curious, but usually shy away from cherry stuff) and Zombie Apocalypse (I've never tried a strawberry-ish juice before...so why not?).
My next samples are the ones that were sent to me from Giant Vapes. I've received 4 different 6ml bottles from them, and that was very nice of them. I want to give them due diligence.
Happy vaping, everyone! Going to puff on Mystic Mandalime probably for the rest of the night, until I have my coffee in the morning.
