N3CT4R e-liquid

[Gators]

I'm not sure why, but there is hardly a mention about juices from N3CT4R anywhere on ECF. They're pretty new I guess (their website says they were established in 2013), but I've tried a couple of their sampler packs and have really liked most of them. They seem to focus on fruits/desserts/candy flavors.

My opinion only...

Positives

• Fast shipping, 2-3 day USPS Priority. Usually, same day or next day turn around time. I think it's free shipping for any order over $55.
• Great selection and flavors for people who like fruit/candy/dessert flavors.
• Really good infusion of menthol flavor in a lot of their flavors. They have non-menthol versions, as well.
• Each bottle comes protected in bubble wrap.
• ANY nicotine and PG/VG ratio you request. I wonder what they would do if you requested 100mg of nicotine?!
• Even each bottle of a sampler pack is fully customizable to your nicotine and PG/VG tastes. And it's actually a few dollars cheaper than buying 5 of the same sized bottles individually. ***Sorry, I was wrong about this. I am currently putting an order together and noticed that "All bottles must be the same nic and PG/VG ratio." I must have missed this on my last order, but they accommodated my requests anyway!
• Seems like a high quality eliquid. I could vape almost any of the flavors I've tried all day and not feel like I need to switch it up. Although I wouldn't call any of them my ADV yet.
• Each order comes with an instruction sheet with their recommended way of preparing their juice before vaping. Instead of steeping, they suggest putting the juice bottle into a Ziploc bag and heating it in non-boiling water for 20-30 minutes. Kind of an express steeping process.

Negatives

• Not much selection, if at all, for people looking for tobacco, coffee, or anything other than fruit/candy/dessert.
• They're ambiguous with their flavor descriptions on some of their flavors. I think it's to preserve their unique fruit flavor mixes, but it's still weird tasting a flavor that you expected to taste far different. (Ex. Area 52 - It has kind of a cookie(?) flavor to it?)
• They're based out of Washington state so they are Seahawks fans. I'm a Niners fan. This has nothing to do with their product or company, but I seriously have a hard time supporting anything that will put me within 6 degrees of supporting the Seahawks. They even have a juice named Clink which is "In honor of our beloved Seahawks." God, I wish I never read the description on that juice. Since I don't know them personally, this actually makes me like them less.

Neutral

• Customer service (haven't needed any so far)
• The labeling on the bottles is basically an Avery paper label with their logo printed on the bottom half. On the top half is the name of the juice, "born on" or "bottled" date (not sure which), nicotine level, and PG/VG ratio... all written in a black marker. I have no problem with this at all, and I actually like it because I know it is customized for me and that they're not wasting money on fancy labeling, but some people might want a little higher level packaging. I've only ordered a couple sampler packs so I don't know if the bigger size bottles are packaged differently.
• Prices are decent. There are lower priced alternatives out there, but I don't think they are overpriced, by any means. Here are the 5 different pricing options:
  • 7.5ml = $5
  • 15ml = $8
  • 30ml = $15
  • 60ml = $28
  • Sampler Pack of five 7.5ml bottles = $22

Here are the flavors I've tried so far:

• Excellent: Heisenberg, Triple Mint
• Good: Goose Joose, Cold ... Kiwi, Cold ... Grape, Cold ... Watermelon, Cold ... Cantaloupe
• OK: Strawberry Lemonade, Area 52

I'll definitely be ordering a couple more sample packs before I commit to larger bottles. They have some interesting flavors I'd like to try out first, but overall, I really like their juice and will continue to order from them... unless I see any more Seahawks-related descriptions.

I just made a list yesterday of all the juices I want to try from here. Question: Is there a lot of menthol in Heisenberg? It says on the site that there's a "splash" of it. I'm not a huge van of menthol, but a note of it can be nice.

There is definitely a coolness to it, but it isn't "minty" in my opinion so I don't think I would say there is a lot of menthol. Less in Heisenberg than in most of the Cold A** line. Good luck!
