So i live in Canada, which obviously means that i cant currently order from geoff for probably a couple of months yet, but i would like some opinions on the flavors i think i'll be ordering.

amaretto stone sour
bananas foster
blueberry cheesecake
butter rum (tv version)
caramel popcorn
german chocolate cake
peach melba
pecan pie
pralines and cream
rootbeer float
smores
strawberry cheesecake

I want to order the tasty finger too, but i've already been fortunate enough to try that one.
I'm a hypoglycemic, so these sweet vapes are like heaven to me as i can rarely eat or drink anything that is remotely sweet. I'm currently using Ms ts right now, but plan on switching over as soon as geoff starts international again
TIA

These are flavors I have and is only my personal opinion - everyone is different so something I may like someone else may not:

bananas foster - This is getting better as it sits longer. At first the banana tasted a bit fake but it's curing nicely. Good TH
blueberry cheesecake - I love this comfort vape. Not too sweet and the blueberries taste fresh. Nice layering of cheesecake flavor. Creamier TH but satisfying.
butter rum (tv version) - This was one I didn't like but I don't like Rum. I ended up giving it to a friend. Most people love this flavor so I imagine it was just my dislike for liquor flavors.
german chocolate cake - One of my favorite all day vapes. Not sickening sweet and amazingly it tastes exactly like the cake. The frosting is dominant as with the real cake. Decent TH but not as much as Peach Melba.
peach melba - This needed a lot of time to mature before I liked it. Now I love it especially when I want a good TH and not something too sweet. The peach flavor is like a fresh peach not the fake candy. I get a fizzy taste on my tongue with this and I don't know what that is. After a few hits I like the fiz and keep going back for more.
pralines and cream - Wow, how did he make this taste exactly like the ice cream? It leaves a taste in your saliva that makes you think you just ate the ice cream. It's a mellow, delicate flavor that you sit back and relax to get the full effect. Nice TH, but smoother than some.

I don't see Dulce De Leche on your list. It's my all-time favorite sweet vape. It's creamy Mexican caramel that makes you go, AHHH on exhale. It's truly a wonderful comforting flavor.

Hope this helps. :)

blueberry cheesecake = I like this flavor, but its not an all day vape for me as I dont care for blueberry too much. But it does taste very good.

butter rum (tv version) This is absolutely one of my favorites! Taste really close to an actual buttered rum and even a hint of 151 in there :)

caramel popcorn = One of my wifes favorites and one of mine as well. To me it tastes exactly like a jelly belly buttered popcorn jelly bean with a hint of caramel.

german chocolate cake = Just like it! its crazy! Even smells like one is being baked when you exhale! :D


Now, you will be tempted to drink your flavors. Dont do it! :p

I feel EXACTLY the same way about these two. Delicious!!!!

Butter rum - of course Im gonna say I love it, its the dogs bollox, I could drink it, but I wouldnt try and it smells glorious in the bottle, its my fave fave - not that I ever mention it usually... :D
Choc cake - this is surprsingly good, and not overly sweet. So good in fact I vaped about 3ml of it today and now feel slightly ill :lol:
(I'm not sick btw Im just..woah too much choc cake...)
I have no off switch when it comes to certain flavors lol
Bananas Foster - not my fave gotta be honest. Found the banana taste a bit too candy-like. Not horrid though, and its popular, so it may just be a personal preference.

I second the Dulce de Leche recommendation. I love that one too, almost as much as butter rum, and mixed they are something else.

Here's what I have and my thoughts:

bananas foster - one of my faves that I come back to over and over. As noted earlier, this one changed a lot over a week or two and has matured beautifully. Not only do you taste real banana, but it tastes like WARM COOKED bananas. Absolutely fantastic.

german chocolate cake - My main go-to all day vape (along with Tastyfinger). Very complex, not overly sweet, just perfect!

peach melba - Had to give this one some time too. At first, it tasted a little 'thin' and almost metallic. A week later it was a different beast. I love this one - great TH and very satisfying when I have a pang for an analog. I tried the dessert for the first time last week, and it was startling how spot-on perfect this tastes in comparison.

pecan pie & pralines and cream - I don't have either of these, but they are on my short-list!

rootbeer float - okay, this is the odd man out for me. It was in my first TV order and I expected to love it, and sometimes I really do. And sometimes I really don't. I don't have any idea why that is (possibly my buds still coming around) but I find I only hit that one a few times a week, at most. I'm not ready to get rid of it though because when it's good to me, it's REALLY good. Also of note, this is by far the thickest, blackest juice I have, and once it goes in a cartomizer, that carto is pretty much done. I dare not try it on one of my 510 or 901 atties!

I also second Dulce de Leche - if you like sweet vapes, you HAVE to get this, it's mucho yummy!

And try the chocolate covered cherry too, I got it last week and it's charging to the top of my charts!

Well, I don't know that I'm qualified to answer that really, as the only experience I have with it is in cartomizers. My mix is all PG 48 with a 70/30 doubler mixed down to about 18 mg, so there is a fair bit of VG in there. From what I can tell though, it's not necessarily overly thick and syrupy, but it is VERY dark. I think my bananas foster is actually 'thicker' (it's 10% VG 48 with 70/30 doubler mixed down to 24) because I went through 3 bottles before finding one that didn't clog the dropper after two drops! However, I have not had any trouble whatsoever cleaning out the cartos with the foster. Based on this, I'd say the amount of color has more to do with it's issues than the thickness, and thus the amount of VG.

If you'd like, I can try it out dripping on an atomizer - I have 901 and 501 atoms here - and report back with flavor and ease of cleaning. Unfortunately, I don't have a 40* to try it on and am pretty unfamiliar with these guys and how they perform vs the 901/501.

As an aside, could you maybe PM me with your thoughts on the 401/2? I'm always looking for new toys to futz around with!

If you wanna try it out for yourself, as I said, I have 70/30 doubler and 48 all PG - PM me with your address and I will send you a sample mixed down to whatever strength you want. Just let me know!

The only one I've had of those is Smores. It's okay but I don't love it. Of all the TV flavors I've tried so far it's my least favorite. I don't really taste the graham cracker or marshmallow and the chocolate has too much of a cocoa flavor for me.

But last night I added a little TV peppermint and it made a great peppermint patty so I will enjoy finishing the bottle.

Landlocked, the Cafe Mocha is wonderful. Almost Espresso with lots of chocolate, smooth, and delicious. If you like Coffee and Chocolate you will love it :) If you want a sample, send me a PM! I have the Blueberry Cheesecake and the Blueberry is very strong. I taste very little cheesecake, but the blueberry is wonderful.

Lightinup, I agree on the Pecan Pie! It is an amazing flavor. It's rapidly becoming one of my favorites!

I have a few that haven't seen reviewed yet.. that I could find anyway...

I'm curious about:

Strawberry Cheesecake
Cafe Mocha
Smores

Thanks!

Strawberry cheese cake: You can taste all 3 components The strawberry, the cheesecake base and the graham crust. I like it. :) Not an all day vape for me since it is a desert flavor.

Cafe Mocha: I haven't tasted the default way this comes. I ordered it with comments to use original Loranns coffee flavor. That being said mine came today. WOW! Slightly more coffee than mocha. This is not a bad thing. I really like this flavor.

Please can someone who has ordered both tell the differences?

Blueberry Cheesecake: I agree I taste a blueberry with a hint of cream? Not a distinct cheesecake and graham like the strawberry cheesecake.

Pralines and cream. I am beginning to wonder if I got a bad one. I tasted a dry praline flavor only and no cream at all. :(

Side note all of mine except for Pralines and Cream and the cheesecakes (at 12 and 20vg) were now 24 and 20 vg
