Ok, I bought into the Boba's Bounty hype and ordered me a 30ml for avejuice along with the Gorilla Juice sampler.

My first impression happened when I dripped the first drop into my hh357 1.5ohm atomizer; the smell was in a mixture of spice and sweet. The first taste was honey with light tobacco, now after 5ml into my bottle (ordering a 100ml) it reminds me of what tobacco would taste like if infused with honey nut cheerios. I read reviews of vanilla and while I am normally a BIG fan of vanilla vapes, I do not taste that at all. It certainly will replace my "Cola" flavored daily vape (going on 8 months straight now).

It is, by far, the best vape I have had yet (and I have spent hundreds on juices from around the world). Great job AVE!!!

Edit: It really is funny to see so many different impressions of what it is. Should just name is Legend (wait for it.....) ary!

It's funny that you mention the honey Theken because that is what I'm getting on a CE2 clearos on my ego twist at 3.8v. I've been vaping it for a couple of days now and it's got good TH and a slight tobacco after taste...it's kinda like a honed cured tobacco or something. I've tried it on different settings on the twist and my tube and all i get is the honey. I also bit the gorilla juice and it's almost the same with the exception that i get honey and bannana.

Much hype around this, so naturally I just had to order a sample...

Vapor: good amounts

TH: mild

Flave: top notes cola and grapes, middle notes prunes and cocoa, base notes graham crackers, smoke aroma/tar and honey.

Immediately after opening the bottle, I could sense graham crackers and honey. Possibly dulche le leche. Not much else.

Vaping produces slight Dr Pepper taste on the impact, and graham crackers is the body of the flavor. There is a hint of sourness in it, like wineberries. Could be the prunes/cola that reminds me almost of tamarind. If it was sweeter it could pass as pineapple... But nope.

Easy to vape, could easily see someone vaping it on a daily basis, but to be honest, I am slightly disappointed. It is well balanced flavor, and I believe it has matured long enough as it took a week to travel, but still... For me it lacks the final oomph factor.

I do like it. Nice for someone who likes Dr. Pepper and dark chocolate graham crackers.

8/10

I must say that experience with boba's bounty has been a whirlwind experience. I originally ordered a 12ml bottle @ 24mg and I wasn't impressed. I thought the flavors and nicotine were high quality, but it just wasn't living up to the hype. But after i has been sitting a couple weeks, I re-partook and wow, now I love it. I'm not sure steeping really did much or maybe when I first vaped it, my previous flavor somehow altered the taste. Who knows, but now that I have none, I find myself craving it. I just reordered in 30ml and am kicking myself for not getting the 100ml size (18mg).

I totally get it now, and can see why people think it has a graham cracker taste. Honey graham that is. This is a great juice, although not what I would consider a tobacco, but great none the less. I think sometimes the hype can interfere with the first taste. BTW I ordered Hype as well, to try.

Absolutely...

...and Most people aren't impressed with it the first few days... it does have to grow on you...

and I want to remind the flavor guessers...

I mentioned this in this thread a year + ago...

Here's what we DO KNOW about Boba's...

Ben gave 2 hints...

One... a few years ago, before he was too popular... his customers requested this flavor... so... what would customers be requesting? Has to be not too complicated...
Two... Ben said it's incredibly simple...

a couple things to consider:
at the time this flavor was created... there weren't nearly as many wild and crazy flavors out there... nor were there as many mom and pops...

It's listed in tobaccos... not desserts/sweets...

I'll ruin it for everyone here too. Ever had bubble tea? Ever simply Google the word boba?

Bobas is by far my only all day vape. I find the only way to enjoy it is dripping or squonking. Cartos do it no justice. What it actually tastes like is beyond me and I've given up trying to analyze it. Its bobas. Its the one and only. I've loved it from the start and after steeping it gets even better. Not that it needs it. I find myself smelling the bottle. The stuff is really addictive. Some love it. Some hate it. Bewildering. But great.

yeah, we've been there... especially considering ben was in Korea/asia when he created it - but that one's been nixed already...

...and I can't imagine all of his customers were begging him to make a bubble tea tobacco 3+ years ago...

Whatever it is... the inspiration came from his loyal fan base early on when he just started... so it can't be anything too exotic...



That awesome thick base morphs the flavor into something we cannot easily recognize.
