Scarfy...Nouget Burley Cavendish is delicious!!!! I can definitely vape this one. Give me a little history on this one.

Thanks

Hey glad you like it! It is one of my favorites too. The tobacco is from the excellent tobacco merchant Alexander's (Cigars.com.au - Discounted Cigars - Online Cuban, Dominican and Nicaraguan Cigars, Tobacco Pipes and Accessories. Serving Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane,) and is described as "a blend of golden African Burleys and mild black Cavendish" with nougat flavoring added. Nicely sweet but the Burley keeps it from getting out of control.

There is just the right amount of sweetness. I'm wondering if the black cavendish or the nougat is what is appealing to me. Very good to be sure. Is this the same place you got your Montecristo?

Just received my 60ml bottle of QnJ's Proudest Monkey. Impressive glass bottle with dripper and sure seems gargantuan next to that 30ml bottle of GNC. The mix date is printed on the label. The aroma coming from PM is outstanding.

QnJ is running a sale. I picked up the 60ml bottle for $27.99. That's a very reasonable price.

CW, in all my time vaping, I have always been afraid to try a clove vape. I think Grandma always ruined her Xmas hams when she stuck those hideous things in it. :)

LOL :)

I like the spice in it...

In the mornings, I have a huge cup of chai mate tea... for those not familiar with it, it is a caffeinated mate tea with deep flavors, slight fruit,nutty, and spice... not sweet in the slightest but, loaded with spice and hints of green, black, and white tea. Here is the description of the 2 that I blend from their website: "caffeine-rich green mate & green rooibos blend. Cinnamon, anise, cardamom, and almond are fortified with papaya and pineapple, orange, and lemongrass" plus "mate, black tea and red rooibos. This morning blend is filled to the brim with sweet cocoa, chocolate and almond bits, pistachio nuts, macadamia nuts, and coriander rounded off with warm hazelnut and cinnamon"

Clove Cove is reminiscent of that flavor for me.

I find that my juice preferences mirror pretty heavily my tea and alcohol preferences which isn't really a surprise :)

That is one confused cup of tea. What'd they do, try to cover all bases?!

I just want to say what everyone else already knows. Mr.Mann ROCKS!!!! He's even awesome to talk to on the phone. Thanks to his incredible generosity, he grabbed a 30ml bottle of XPress Sahara Blend while visiting Ahlusion.

Now I understand why it's taking so damn long for the XPress line to drop. This juice was made in November '12!!!! Yep, a 6 month steep. :ohmy::cool: And it shows. Big time! SB, when fresh, is clear. After about 2 weeks it gets a pink tint. The XPress SB is freaking PINK!!!! It looks like watermelon juice.

The taste is out of this world. I usually vape 12mg, this juice happens to be 24mg. Mann didn't know what MG I vaped and that's fine. The point is that he was kind enough to think of someone else. He really is a great guy and I can't wait to meet him.

Thanks so much Mr.Mann!!!

Oh!!! If you haven't seen his artwork you're missing out on some awesome abstract paintings. Be on the lookout for some Mr.Mann/Shatner collaborative art in the near future.

Pics (or prints) or it didnt happen :)



That is a thinly veiled request to have prints made available of solo and collaborative works done.

Jerms, damn the juice, you are getting mighty good at reviewing. You are definitely describing the juice as objectively as possible. Good job.

Aww shucks, thanks Mann.

One thing I forgot to mention is the noticable throat kick it has. TH isn't much of an issue for me since I have a lot of control over it with my dripping RBAs, but Louisville had quite a bit of oomph for being 12mg. I usually vape 18mg, and if I was told this was 18mg instead of 12mg I STILL probably would have considered it to have a fairly strong hit. I like vapes that keep a decent TH at lower mg, means I can be satisfied with the hit while being able to vape heavier.

No prob, namesake. ;)

Shatner, it was a no brainier for me to do it. You wanted something I had access to.

The XPress Line is hard to stay stocked on simply becasue it is hard to make a ton of juice while fulfilling wholesale orders, regular orders, walk-ins, consults, etc. The XPress Line isn't actually steeped with time but a method that simulates time. For those that are wondering-- no, it is not hot water. It is a lab technique. I don't see it mentioned on the site so I won't speak on it.

My Smooth Criminal (XPress) didn't really taste all that steeped upon the first vape, but an interesting thing happened. No later than three days and it tasted like a very well steeped SC. I do mean very well steeped. I was impressed.

I look forward to a collaboration.

Time machine? I knew they were working on a time machine. I never bought the whole; this lab is used to make ejuice. Oh yeah? And how exactly do you use that perpetual motion device and doomsday machine to make juice WLAD, if that's his real name. You don't need a lab to make juice, you do need a lab to make a time machine. And also genetic manipulation. Cutting edge indeed.

I'll let Mann post them. I wouldn't want people I've shared my glass art with posting the things I've shared with them.

I wasn't saying that you should... It would be nice, however, to see whatever the two of you come up with. I'm a huge fan of art in general and like looking at what people create... whether glass or paint or music or words or animation or whatever... it is fun for me to have the chance to enjoy it.

A vendor I was speaking with uses an ultrasonic cleaner before shipping juices. His claim is that 2.5 hours roughly simulates two weeks of steeping. Perhaps Wlad has the Hadron Collider of steeping machines in Swartz Creek.

I think that is Orange Nocturne in there.
