Maple Burley is my favorite Ahlusion aromatic too. (Besides my homemade admixture of Vurley, Smokin' Cherries, and Georgia Peach. That one is possibly better.) I found BWB Maple tobacco to be a fairly undistinguished tobacco-absolute juice.

The best maple-flavored tobacco I've had besides MB is actually not a NET. It's VapeKing's Royal Blend. Maple and molasses. **swoon**

scarf,

I haven’t had Maple Burley---Blue Grass Burley, yes; Vurley, yes; Smokin’ Cherries, yes; Sweet Georgia Peach, yes; but Maple Burley? no---so I can’t comment on that one.

I agree, however, that VapeKing Royal Blend is La Bamba. I wasn’t sure I liked it at first, but now I parse it out like precious Napoleon Brandy, savoring it only by dripping, and then only in tiny amounts---I vape no more than ten drops per session. I've got about 3ml left. Some of those Australians make very fine juice, even if we do have to add our own nic!

Oh for those of you not following political things in this part of the world, we've got a new Prime Minister. Last night before the leadership spill, it was billed as the battle of the Smug Know-It-All and the Nervous Redhead.

I didn't say you shouldn't try everything at every stage, just that Smooth Criminal when young is far different from the older version. Like tadpoles and adult frogs, or caterpillars and moths maybe. But better tasting.

I drip new liquids too; sometimes they're great new! And some are good both ways (Sasparilla, Ice Kiss). Others seem like they're going to be equally good, but what the juice turns into is far beyond what you imagined from the good youthful version (hellooo, Sahara).

The maple burley is exceptional...not just an adv while at work possibly. So the search for that continues. I really think is is a ADV 3-way. Right now it is Louisville, a now and again bluebacko fr BWB, and...looking for a root beer/sasperilla/birch beer. I am almost afraid to try the W&A after how hard these NET's hit, but I gotta go there. Break down the W&A sass...and any other root beer/sass/birch beer you guys recommend.

Wow. Now I am curious. Basically if 70% of the time I am vaping Ahlusion or W2V NET, the other 30% I need to take it down a notch. Now and again the BWB bluebacko hits the spot, that is the only thing fruit anywhere near my epipes, but what I am looking for is something in the neighborhood of BB or EPM Long Bottom Leaf (my all night vape alongside London). Maybe that Royal Blend is the ticket...or the root/sass/birch someone tells me hits the spot?

W&A Sasparilla is an insanely good vape. Spicy and flavorful like a good sarsaparilla instead of root beer. Fizzy too, which I couldn't believe until I tried it.

I concur. I really liked it when I first tried, but have grown to love it. It's a very unique and delicious juice. For a straight up root beer, BWB's is a great choice.

W&A is?

Birch Beer or Sarsaparilla would be be Vintage Good!

Ahlusion. Here's from the description..

Our Sasparilla is an in-house brew, not your average run of the mill cola/soda (or Root beer) flavor; we use 9 different spices and ingredients to come to what we think is the perfect blend closest to a Honduran Sarsaparilla. For those wondering, W&A stands for Wlad and Alley and thanks to our friend BSP (@BlackSmithPro) who was one of the few to identify this flavor correctly, this will now be called "W&A Sasparilla". There is actually no Sassafras in our Sasparilla

Same deal here. I'll drip a bit to see how it develops, but for the most part I have enough juice that a one-month steep happens before I vape a juice in earnest. The problem is when I have something I really, really like on hand. I'm behind in my juice rotation because of various Ahlusion, Goodejuice, and Five Pawns products. Ah, first-world problems.

This. 100 times this. And Jerms' comment too.

I always taste when fresh but, only dripping. some I like right away and go to town (ahem sahara ahem) others I let sit just to see what they become. Now that I have plenty of steeped liquids to keep me fat and happy, the ones in the steeping cupbord don't bother me too much :D

Spent some time with Want2Vape's Alcazar and Coffee-Infused Cigar, both macerations of somewhat straight-forward premium, hand-rolled cigars. The only other NET I can think of that shares a similar profile with these is MyVapeJuice's My Hero Original, which is made with Connecticut broadleaf, commonly used as wrap and filler for cigars. They have a dark, heavy, almost thick tobacco flavor without higher notes.

While I enjoyed these two W2V cigar vapes, I don't want to reorder them. They have the flavor of premium cigars that's the most authentic I've had, but it's more like the actual taste the cigar has while in the mouth than the smoke from a burning cigar. I wonder if adding something smoky, or even TA, would improve the experience for me. Or adding something that vaping can provide that smoking can't, like the curiously wonderful sweet flavor in Apache and the QnJ contest vapes.

Blond and CI Cigar doesn't suffer in the same way for me, mainly because the flavor infused cigars they are made from work so well in the vaping medium too, without the addition of other flavor agents.

Thanks, added to the wish list for now.

So I just bought 3 10ml bottles of tobacco juice from a vendor I've never heard of, with no checking out what they're like; just that it's USA made at 50/50 pg/vg. Why? Can't resist a good sale, and this one is 10ml for $1.99 and 30ml for $4.99 at VaporPhoenix. So $5.97 for 30ml of juice that I'm just hoping is at least vapable. Not sure what brand flavorings they use; got the American Tobacco, Vanilla Tobacco, and Honey Tobacco. As long as they're not terrible, they'll be fine for on-the-go in an eVod. And who knows, maybe I'll like them good enough to drip at home?

Jerms...any thoughts about steeping requirements for Apache? I just received my first bottle yesterday.

My bottle changed a bit from when I first got it but, not too much. I think this fits into the aros category where it doesn't need it.



And yes, I know I'm not Jerms ;)

I dripped some yesterday from a bottle I just received last week, and it was pretty darn good. Am I going to use it? No! I'm still working through a bunch of other juices. But, it does not seem to need steeping.

Edit: I'm not Jerms either. :)
