Got my order in to Ahlusion for Sahara Blend and Dulce Cubanito.
Mr. Mann is going to Ahlusion's today, so I asked if he'd be kind enough to grab a bottle or two of the Wild Woods from the XPress line.
Got it?
Sorry about that, guys. I woke up in a panic attack and had to rely on Klonopin. So excuse any typos.
I also place an order with Bee Liquid just a few minutes ago. I'm intrigued by this juice; partially because I love bees and my Father is a bee keeper. Pretty awesome little guys, bees are. When I visit him I help him feed, spray for mites and generally take care of his 20 hives. Only been stung once and that was when I was hurrying and didn't smoke them up enough.
Been really thinking about building a hive here, but I'm not sure HOA would like that. But the fact is; bees are super docile and will make your garden 10x better, no exaggeration. Plus you can rent your hives out to farmers for fertilization for ~$1k/month.

AHA!
Woke up to, uh, powder my nose, realized it was only eleven a.m., and got an order in at A+:
60mls JG Blend + 60mls Sahara Blend + 30mls Mojito Cubano!!!
I must have just missed it then... it was only around 10a ( CDT ) and the website already said closed. I guess it's ok, I haven't even pre-sampled the two I got about 10+ days ago yet... but still, I was wanting to some JG, Sahara and BGB... so the non-aro's had some steep time available
Looking closer at CravinVapes site, I found this info about their tobacco extracts. http://cravinvapes.com/content/10-tobacco-extracts Looks like they use alcohol in their extraction and a filtration process they are proud of. They list what tobacco is used in each NET, which deserves a huge kudos in my opinion.
Sometimes NETs are flavored by adding flavor extracts/concentrates along with the tobacco extract when mixing the juice. Sometimes flavors are added during the extraction, as Ahlusion does by adding vanilla beans or cherries to the tobacco and extracting together. And sometimes the flavor is from a cased tobacco (Cavendish) like Organic Vanilla Pipe from CV (and most HHV NETs I believe).
All three methods can produce a great flavored NET. When a vendor says which method they use, I appreciate that. Of course, the most important thing is the end product, the final result, and I believe a vendor should use any method, or combination of methods, they feel is best to produce the product they are going for.
So CravinVapes used an organic vanilla Cavendish for Organic Vanilla Pipe. The end result was, to my initial impressions, a vape that played like vanilla cigarette, even though pipe tobacco was used. That observation comes from a guy who has never smoked a pipe in my life though. Maybe it does taste like pipe tobacco. My experience with pipe flavor is just based on the much more complex pipe vapes I've had.
It doesn't change my first impressions though. The lack of pipe-ness to me is a result of my limited experience, a very mild tobacco used, or the extraction and/or filtration process. Either way, now knowing how and what is used to make that juice may increase my appreciation for OrgVanPipe as I vape it. Or maybe it will always just feel like a vanilla cig to me.

Adam struggles with consistency from NET batch to NET batch. I understand there is seasonal volatility (among other factors) that make it difficult to produce the same taste and feel from one extract batch to the next. But I wonder what impact the differing extraction, flavoring, and filtration methods have on consistency. Are the cased tobaccos (cavendish) inherently difficult to get consistency? I have no idea.
Been vaping some ouR whY qu4tro from QnJ all day. I guess I need to give QnJ yet another plug. I'm not an RY4 fan. I've tried several of them and didn't care for any of them...as in, not at all! I'm not suggesting I'm grooving on QnJ's NET version of RY4, but I have been vaping it all day. That is tons more than I can say about any other RY4 I've tried. The flavoring is well balanced and, again, the NET base really shines through as it does on all QnJ's flavored NETS. I sampled ouR whY qu4tro a long time ago and thought the same then as I do now. It is readily apparent that QnJ makes a whole lot of quality smoke juices. One doesn't have to necessarily like a particular flavor profile, but he can state that it is a well-made juice.
That, ol' buddy, is called "grooving on QnJ's NET version of RY4"
Wait! You like it too?!

(I'm chronically exhausted; my usual natural "get up" time is between 1:00 and 3:00pm. Some days, it's all I can do to drag my .... out of bed before 5:00pm! )I am sorry to hear about your rough start this morning, though . . .
OH NO . . . that sounds like it was MY order that shut down the site today! I'm so sorry rdsok -- but you know how cut-throat the juice acquisition business can be!
If it were you... that would be just fine, I can think of no other I'd rather see get the last order
I can't wait until I get mine from Chimps then! It should be 2 weeks steeped by the time I get it!

Just wait until it blossoms. How much did you get? At about the 2 week mark it starts to change in flavor and turn light pink. After a month it's a hot pink. The flavor changes, but it keeps the fresh pack of Camel smell, just more mature. If you enjoy it fresh, you'll love it with some age.
