Neither, actually. No tobacco flavor, and it's not straight menthol. It's a combination of sorts of menthol and mint. Reminds me of a spearmint gum flavor, almost a wintergreen. I like it a lot, very pleasant. Loved it at first, but I've mellowed a bit on it, myself. The opposite happened to me with the Bounty Hunter: thought it was okay at first, but not an all day vape (found it too sweet), but now I love it and it's definitely an all day vape for me, except now I'm all out of it, gotta get me some moreDoes the Cold Creek have a strong tobacco flavor or is it a straight menthol?
I thought I'd like the Sundance, too, but have to agree--vapable, but not anywhere near great. I didn't get a licorice taste, though. What I got tasted something more like Pledge, kind of a heavy and unpleasant chemical flavor. Funny thing is though, I ordered the No Match Menthol and Saddle Up (got the Sundance thrown in for free, which was very generous of Gene to do, a very nice touch) and all three juices taste EXACTLY the same. I'm wondering if I just got bad juices, like something went wrong, or if they were mislabeled and they were all the same. Only way to find out for sure would be to reorder, but I'm not sure I'm brave enough to do that in case they are what they are and that's how they all taste. Sticking with Bounty Hunter for sure, though. Best juice I've ever had so far!I thought I'd like Sundance...tobacco with vanilla and cream sounded like what I like. But instead of vanilla I get a licorice taste. I'm going to try another bottle to see if it's just my taster or if the bottle I got was an 'oops.' It won't be a waste if it tastes the same. I can vape it, it's just not a great vape.

OK. Just spent 10 minutes vaping my just opened bottle of 24MG Bounty Hunter. It's very nice. The liquid smells like cake batter and I would guess the vape to be very sweet. But the vape on my Omega 3.7 with a Boge 2.0 cart is only slightly sweet. First impression is a moderately dry and nice tobacco with a cake batter overtone. It's not sickening to me at all like some baked flavors are. So far it's definitely a tobacco vape with extra goodness added in. I'm so glad about this purchase. This along with BB and Pineapple Pulp could carry me for quite a while.
Has anyone noticed a drop in flavor regarding the bounty hunter since they reopened last week? I got some last week and the flavor is very week compared to the old stuff. I have heard from one other person so far and he has also noticed a significant drop in flavor.

I ordered a 130ml bottle of Bounty Hunter and noticed the color was really light. Almost clear/pink insted of red. I emailed Gene. Here is his response....

My week old BH bottle is just about right (color & flavor). I have the original mix, but i'm switching back to the vapetv version. Both are great, 100% vg seems more bodied.
I am absolutely craving their coffee/cap juice... it grew on me kinda fast and i vaped the bottle dry.
So I had three bottles sitting in a drawer since my last post. I decided to follow Gene's advice and let them steep for a while. I had been using my stash of Capparillo Cafe as my main stay while I let the BH steep, more on the Capp later. So I decided last night that I had waited long enough. I broke out a fresh bottle of BH, a fresh 18650 for the Provari and a brand new HH.357 1.5ohm Atty. I followed Hanna's directions for breaking in the new atty and loaded it up with some BH. Took a few hits and the flavor was ok. 357 users know that it takes a little bit of work to break them in. I put another 4 drops inside and started hitting it hard. Then it hit me like a freight train, that sweet flavorful full body BH taste that I love. I was soon kicking out tasty vapor that put me in a daze. My wife looked at me and had to ask why I was smiling to myself. I told her that the BH was back. She doesn't vape so she can't understand. I guess that Gene was right, his BH is in such high demand that he is forced to send it out before he can let it steep long enough. Kind of like BWB and their juices. So don't worry my fellow BH lovers, our beloved juice is still the same, it just needs time to mature. The flavors will develop and mingle the way that we like it.
And now for the Capparillo Cafe. This is my wake up, AM vape. The best was to describe it is that it is BH mixed with coffee and cream. I love this stuff. I started using capp cafe three months ago but still continue to try cappuccino juices from other sites. I have tried roughly 20 other brands and no one compares to the capp cafe. Do yourself a favor and try it. I also like to mix the capp cafe with bh and enjoy it that way.
