Did you try Gaia? Huntsman? Maple eh? Legend? Don't forget that they need to sit a couple weeks to mature.


Well...HHV is the first NET tobacco I have tried...so you may be on to something there. The others I have tried have been local and not 100 vg which is all I vape now.

I have only tried Legend and HH Army. I am letting them steep to see if they get better before I toss them. Legend is just too Honey for me out of the box and Army taste like mold smells...awful.

Neither of your descriptions match anything what they juices should taste like. Weird!

I know, that is why I as so frustrated. I am hoping steeping does the trick and they end up tasting good to me eventually. I have read others review Legend and say it has a strong Honey taste as well...so I am not alone on that one! Now HH Army...don't think anyone has reviewed it as tasting like mold smells, but me...lol!

I can see now why vendors charge so much for their nets, its the development time, getting a good vape isn't always as easy as Captain Black Cav.
I am partial to vaperite Madagascar vanilla tobacco. S for the past 3 months I've been trying to develop a vanilla tobacco. Finally I nailed it last night after about 20 tries.

I buy my coils premade also but for the KFL and Magma, you can custom order and they last for ever so the cost is nothing, the guy is really talented and sells on ebay.


Hey you guys are taking my ideas and now he's out of stock damn.

Finally got around to trying HHV tobaccos. Have to say I am not a happy camper! Legend 's honey flavor is just too much! .

Don't feel bad I can't stand HHV or Ahl either,you might want to stick with ether and net.com, and foggy bottom if you can afford it.


High brows 24mg RY4 is nice for a kick in the pants ever once in a while.

You are all class GJ. GJ and BJ. That's adorable! Like Laurel & Hardy, Sam & Diane, Bonnie & Clyde, Ren & Stimpy, Mork & Mindy, The Captain & Teneille...

Once again, thank you to my good friend and fellow ePipe vaper, BJ.
I have been rather busy recently and have been smoking only cigarettes, but 'found time to indulge a true gem (among the many juices I didn't really care for)... NET's "Poilu", or Clay's take on the famous "Gauloises". I brought back a few such cigarettes from Italy, and keenly smoked them with the anxiety of not being able to find them here in the US. Then, our good ol' Big Juice was kind enough to provide me with a sample of this eJuice from NET.

It is perfect. Clay diligently recreated the exotic blend that makes Gauloises one of the most flavorful smokes I have ever had. And, as BJ had correctly suggested, it is as good, if not better (to me it is), as the Paris Blend from Wnat2Vape.

I love it, and for the first time in a long time, this Juice makes me choose my ePipe over cigarettes.


There is a distant tang of Latakia, but mostly of fragrant oriental tobaccos conjuring only pure tobacco smoke. A real good cigarette. I place the tip of the stem over my tongue to avoid even the slightest touch of sweetness (that seems to affect all Juices). And, I love to exhale some through my nose, as the scent is as opulently exotic as the dining car of the Orient Express.


I just ordered 4 of the 30 ml bottles (rigorously matching the specs of the sample, 70/30 and 18 nic) and had the pleasure to speak to Clay himself. I always believed in him, and my bet paid off... best Juice yet for this die hard cigarette smoker!

Just about every weekday I have my vape and coffee while I scan the news on several sites both liberal and conservative. Today I keep running into stories about malware and viruses being transferred to our computers via e-cig batteries when we charge them through our computers usb. Almost all the stories mentioned China and the items they export. Really? I can see maybe a VV-VW rig with a chip, maybe. Twister type batteries no, I don't think so. Perhaps, programmable rigs where they are hooked up to your computer to exchange data. But why? Why would someone do that? It's bad business, even if the source of manufacture denies knowledge, it is still going to hurt their business. Sorry to be OT but I'm wondering about this. What say you?

I read the story in Guardian today and was a bit puzzled tbh. It is theoretically possible i suppose, but if you dig a little further the original source was a reddit post with no details on the particular ecig whatsoever. News media jumping all over a reddit post with no source !!

A lot of malware is designed to allow the hacker access to your personal data for nefarious purposes. That I can understand. It's the malware designed to to just mess your day up that I can't understand. I'd love to get my hands on the ...... that wrote the last bug I got!

Doesn't make sense that a manufacturer would knowingly spread malware. Maybe one of the IT guys can offer some insight.

I say "BWAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA!" Nearly spit coffee all over my screen.

Sir Walter Raleigh Regular from MVJ is a pleasant surprise. I had absolutely no expectations of a pleasant outcome. I mean, it is a "drug store" blend. I was greatly surprised. The Burley is a little darker tasting and mixes well with the dark heart of molasses. There is a touch of anise casing to bring things together in a surprisingly well rounded way. Close to the 3ml mark the molasses topping starts to leave behind a caramelized sugar taste and room note. It is a very pleasing experience that reminds me of Sunday breakfast at Grandma's.

This is definitely something I would vape on Sundays and Holidays. It would be a staple of my rotation if I didn't have so many juices waiting for my attention.

How in the world would a straight Evod battery transfer malware? Also, most computers tell you if a drive has been hooked up. I've never had my computer show any signs of a drive being hooked in when I charge my Evod or MVP 2.0. I call bull on this one.

Since it's a rainy day thought I'd break out the Aston Rainy Day from MVJ. It is only at about two and a half weeks old but this stuff is really killin it for me. The Virginia and Burley stand out in this. Which is good cause I loves me some Virginia/Burley vapes. I also get a somewhat sweet note on the exhale along with a little harshness. Not in a bad way though; think it is the whiskey from the barrel the tobacco was aged. It almost seems a bit smokey. In any event, this stuff is a winner for me and will be on a re-order list in the future (once I tried the many, many different varieties MVJ has to offer).
