now this is a braver person than me
sigh ... you have a right to an honest answer and that would be ahlusion aromatics and non aromatics but if you have not ordered from them they are currently not taking new customers
Good to know - I will wait and keep my eyes open for them to open their doors to everyone again!
I respect the decission of a vendor to rather serve the ones he can and serve them well rather then try to do serve everyone for the $$$ alone and be inferior.
I am, right now, on my way to California and I am not taking any vaping supplies. I think this may be my first time since I started vaping that I will go a day without. I am eager to see how this plays out.
If you're headed near SF, LA, or Orange County, the good news is that there are plenty of brick-and-mortar vape shops for you to visit.
Here is a great example of how we can respectfully disagree with each other
As far as strong, bold tobaccos go, nothing touches the Ahlusion aromatics. They are the top of the heap. I personally have not developed a taste for the Ahlusion non-aromatics. The reason for that is that I find they mostly have a syrupy undertone (and yeah, I know I said a few posts ago that I blended Smooth Criminal with Maple Dream. Different sort of sweet LOL) I like House Blend and SC fine but they are far below some of my other favorites. Vecchio Blend, Dealmaker, and Desperado have not hit my taste buds right after six weeks of steeping. The exception is JG Blend (coffee+tobacco) which is really delicious. Many folks disagree and find A+ tobaccos to be wonderful. Ahlusion does not ship overseas so you will have to secure the services of a "mule" in the USA to get some.
GoodEJuice makes great NETs. Vita Bella is a frothy vanilla meringue tobacco, and Patriot is a medium-weight slightly sweet pipe blend. They take their time steeping and some have called the taste of the fresh juice as "wet dog"-like. After a few weeks they blossom into their true taste. They only make one PG/VG ratio which I believe is 50/50. Some flavors can cause residue to build up in clearomizer coils.They ship overseas.
The Plume Room makes a few excellent NETs including one of my very favorites, Candied Cavendish (banana+sweet tobacco). Also popular are Honey Fig Tobacco (just what it sounds like, delicious). and M-Type (scarily realistic analog replacement, contains tobacco absolute).Tends to favor high VG content which can be hard on equipment. Ships overseas. Lovely packaging, generous with samples.
HHV you know. All of their tobaccos are terrific with one exception. Flavor profile favors rich sweetness. Excellent prices, basic packaging. Cheap overseas shipping. Very friendly and helpful forum. Doesn't gunk up equipment at all.
House of Liquid doesn't get talked about much but when they are, it is in nearly universally glowing terms. Cigarillos and Puros are amazing clean tobaccos. Located in EU and ships overseas. They sell samples but otherwise the only bottle size is 60mls.
Want2Vape has great flavors, but is infamous for wrecking equipment. Does not ship overseas unless purchased through Vulcanvape. Alcazar, Red Pirate and Rockstar are particularly excelllent.

i bow to scarf-ace's assessment -- i thought i was the only one who was not impressed with ahlusion non aromatics --- i am so glad i am not alone but he did ask for a general agreement and i never really hear anything bad about them --- our tastes are closer than i thought --- thank you for such a well thought out response that i wish i could have given
Well put Scarf. Ahlusion has some fine offerings but they definitely are not the end all, be all in NET juices. I need to try their JG Blend soon. I'm also looking forward to my bottle of Sunday Morning.
i registered with ahlusion some time ago but ordered some for 1st time in late december. i received them last week and letting them steep. I have:
blue grass burley
vurley
blueberry vanilla cake
house blend
caramel pear black tea
smooth criminal
any suggestions on steeping time and methods. i usually keep in a kitchem cabinet and shake and smell once a day.

House Blend and Smooth Criminal both get better with a long steep imo. Your BGB, BVC should be interesting now.
Awesome post and overall review of juice/vendors. Earlier in the thread others were mentioning HOV. I still haven't ordered from them and wondered when you said "clean tobaccos" for HOV did that mean they didn't easily gunk up equipment.
The other day I vaped probably 2 mls of devil dog and the coil was very built up with gunk. Vaping BGB right, which is my favorite, and hoping this one will be a little easier on the coils. I rebuild my own so not to big of a deal, but with how much gunk builds up I am better of rebuilding then trying to dry burn.
Also wanted to put out there. Wondered what types of wick everyone uses. For a few months was only using mesh. Now for pocket friendly I am using silica devices. I have noticed a differnece in flavor for some juices, primarily GEJ. Just wondered what most use for their wicks?

Long Draw, when I said "clean" I meant very true, clear, strong flavors, not muddled. But now that you mention it, they haven't once ruined an atty/carto/clearo of mine.
I don't rebuild, so cannot help you with that part of the question, sorry.

BGB and Vurley do not need steeping. CPBT and Smooth Criminal both been edit from generous streeping, it's hard to say how much but CPBT took a loooong time for me but now it is very good. Be patient

Where in California you headed? No vape gear??? Whaaaa?

The best possible setup I've found for vaping nets is a dripping atomizer with SS mesh wick. You can dry burn the wick run the atty base under hot water and dry burn again and you are good to go. Makes it very easy to change flavors as well. I'm on day four since rebuilding it last, been vaping nothing but NETs and no build up to be seen. Silica, cotton, bamboo ect just seem to attract build up around your coils very quickly

So I went and ordered Sunday Morning and Pendragon and somehow a new dripping RBA fell into my cart, oops. Thanks Luce!
Luce did you ever get a chance to try the AIV NETs?

Out of curiosity, why is Ahllusions not taking any new customers, it just seems odd, I love thier bluegrass burly.
I've only heard about them on this thread and with the first release. Maybe I'll get to them sometime!!

Yeah but yeah but.. whyyyyyy? One thing I like about vaping is I'm not as much a slave to nicotine as I was with cigs, a few hours without, no prob. But then I start craving the flavor. Going a day without vaping for me would be like eating only white rice for a day. Sure I could do it, but why would I want to?
Those 2 are ready right now! Hurry hurry! Brace yourself for BGB and enjoy the kick to yer face!
TCP, I'm very new to RBAs and noticed last night how quick the gunk builds up on the setup for NETs. Cleaning and dry burning is quick and easy, but needs to be done often. The silica wick setup also has a taste to it that I don't get from regular atties. I have a Dream atty which is a dripping RBA, and was under the wrong impression that SS mesh was only for a vertical wick on a tank RBA, so didn't consider that option. So your saying SS mesh works with a dripping RBA? Would it be worth it for me to learn how to do that as far as better flavor?
