I kinda wish I had bought some now. I could hoard it and sell it for 3 times the price down the road. ;)

Yeah, there is nothing that makes a juice taste better than knowing it is no longer made. Well actually, why is it that such good juices have this happen? There was an AVE juice that is no longer made that I almost had the opportunity to get but passed up on it. It was too early in my vaping for me to know how lucky I was. :( Does anyone here know what that flavor was? I think it was AVE??? Maybe it was NLV? I can't remeber. Calling Eleanor...

This just in...

First of all, Wrangler Light is all gone. The additional cocoa flavor is what can't be sourced anymore as the original recipe changed. I was only able to get the 30 mL at 32 mg. However, Nick told me about his new approach to the flavor and that it should very well please me as much if not more. We shall see.

Secondly, as much as I hate to say it, there was something off with my last GeJ order. Now when I say off, I don't mean bad per se, but off nonetheless. My Natural Perique was barely there in terms of flavor and aroma. Nick called me today and I expressed my concerns about the flavor. He confirmed that there was something different, but it was simply due to the nature of natural products. As the seasons change, certain strains of my beloved leaves become out of season. With the out-of-season leaves, many that are able to be accessed are sub-par in terms of depth of flavor. Nick assured me that I could up the extract, but I am going to hold off and wait for his next offerings slated for a month from now (give or take). One of the juices is going to incorporate a seriously bold tobacco that is sure to please the gruffier among us.

So, we have to remember, when dealing with natural products, consistency is not the same as dealing with off the shelf flavors. I am not sure why some leaves are in or out of season, nor what strains flourish best in which season. But I promise you I will continue investigating.
I would like to thank Nick for confirming my suspicions and being honorable enough to tell me the truth as opposed to saying "maybe it's your atty!"

So evidently, extracts cannot be "bottled".?

That's what I shoulda done with Boba's before they moved. I coulda sold that stuff for $10/mL with the way those kids were acting. I'm going to be keeping my eye out for the next time a company decides to close up and move.

I'm not sure about AVE. As GT pointed out, BWB discontinued their famous RY4; they also d/c'd their beloved E-Joker.

NLV discontinued the 100% VG version of Bounty Hunter, to some wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Are you thinking of that Raf-a-licious stuff? I too had the opportunity to try it, but passed. Someone could correct me, but I think it an RY4.

Yep, it was a real shame that BWB pulled the plug on RY4 and eJoker. Those were my two favorites from them. The tobacco they used in them had such a nice cigar-like bite to it. Maybe I'll pick up some Casablanca again at some point, but over all I don't really have much reason to order from them anymore, now that we have GeJ, W2V, and Ahlusion.

Raf-a-licious! Tez is right -- that was AVE.

Yep! That was it, Tez! Man, we will never know. I truly believe that eJoker and the RY4 were extracted (by whom, who knows ;) ) cause that was too real of a tobacco bite to have been flavored!

Yeah, RY4 and eJoker were good flavors, but it was really the tobacco base that I loved. It was legit enough to pass for a dark cigar, but light enough to be all-day vapeable. It provided a nice counterbalance to the sweet caramel and vanilla in RY4 and the cinnamon, vanilla (?), and mint in eJoker.

RY4 from you know who gave me my first light bulb moment in vaping. Luckily, I've found sooooo many other juices, I will not have to, well...
