I have no idea how the fake juice tastes, but I bet there is a thread about it here on ECF.

You have to go through all kind of hoops to get a trademark registered, let alone a patent. Costs money and time also. I read that the owner will rather change the name of Boba's Bounty to something else than putting up with this crap.

The owner of the fake company with the fake product does what a lot of people love, when is done by a Chinese company. Clone a product and sell it for the fraction of the price. We, the consumers are not entirely innocent in this mess...

Yeah, took a quick look. Not sounding too palatable. Contacted my credit card company to attempt to stop any charge, but it might very well be too late. Oh well. I just did order the real thing. I haven't been suckered for a long time; forgotten how nasty it feels. thanks for pointing it out to me, as I may still have a chance to cancel the charge.

Boba's with a head cold/sore throat: I came down with a nasty bug the other day that started with terrible irritation in my throat and sinuses. My ADV's became like battery acid to me. I couldn't vape anything without severe pain and irritation in my throat. So I grabbed a tank I keep filled with Boba's, as I use it for spot vapes from time to time. Ahhhh. No irritation to my tortured throat. It became my ADV out of necessity for a couple days and boy was I glad. Just a heads up if you get the creeping crud this season.

Everyone seems to have their favorite method - I remove the cap, give the bottle a few squeezes to get some air in & out, let it sit capless for 24 hours, then put the cap back on. Then just let it sit and shake a few times per day.

Yep, I do the same thing but not regularly because I find this juice very good as it is, without steeping.
 
I think i was scammed. I have been reading the threads about this Boba's Bounty and oh its the cat's meow, yada yada... So i googled it and first page to come up is this alienvapor.com. So i get my order of 50/50 12mg yesterday and guess what it tastes like.... You ever forget your coffee cup in the truck for a couple of days and everything in it sours, yeah it taste like total crap.

So if course i come on here to see if i need to steep if for a bit and figure out how long i need to do this before it tastes magical like everyone claims. Low and behold buried down near thread 100+ i find out that the real Boba's bounty is sold by alien visions.

Guess i should have done better research, but this is the thread that convinced me to order. I should have read past thread 5. Well i have to get this crap out of here, its stinking up my computer room.

Got my sampler of Boba's yesterday.

Put in about 1/2 mL in my protank and took a taste. (12mg/ml strength)

This is my first 100% VG juice and boy is this stuff thick.

Took my first hit, and I definitely taste the graham that everyone here mentions. After that I'm not sure what I think. Being a 100% VG juice it definitely does not have much of a throat hit, which isn't bad. Right now, however, I'm not sure I will continue to use it. Flavor is subjective and after several vapes I just kind of don't like it. Quickly went back to wowboy. Steeping may improve the flavor. But for me the first impression is that it's not my cup of tea.

When I took my first hit of Wowboy, I absolutely loved it. Boba's didn't hit me like that. It might be an "acquired" taste. I understand that, but for now, Wowboy continues to be my "go to" vape.

I'm gonna let it steep for awhile and revisit.

    My first tobacco vape enjoyment, with notes of caramel and nutmeg with some graham cracker.

    BB was my first online purchase of e-juice after buying my inital 3-pcs kit with a free bottle of DK Red ($30) at the flea market a month earlier. I took samples of Boba's, Raff and C/D on our first family visit to Manhattan during Christmastime.

    BB mixes well with Mountain Berry. I've enjoy other tobaccos from BWB, FSUSA, HHV, KVS and DK; recently enjoyed GLV's El Kamino.

    Nice thread and a thanks to Ben.

    I have been vaping BOBAS,GORILLA, and FLU CURED, made by ALIEN VISION, for several years now, its all I vape period, I find steeping for one week brings out the flavor.....I swear if they stopped making these juices I would no longer vape, needless to say I have several hundered 100 mil bottles stored....mike, I use various tanks and bogue pre punched cardos from ELECTRONICSTICKS, and they work fine with one hole punched without thining the juice.....:2c::2c:
    THANK YU BEN,FOR GETTING ME OFF THE CIGGS...

    I have tried hundreds of different flavors from multiple vendors over the past couple of years. I finally tried bobas and gorilla juice a couple of months ago and regret not getting it sooner. Bobas and gj is all I vape also. Haven't tried the flue cured yet but will on my next order. I have 6 100 ml bottles on hand and will continue to stock up. If they stop producing I am certain I will return back to analogs. It's a scary thought but there is no other flavor even close to these.

    Add me to the Boba's club!

    I'm vaping some right now in a 1.8ohm Smok dripping atty. This is my first 100% VG juice, love the vapor, and the throat hit!

    First vape was definitely graham cracker. I couldn't visualize that from other reviews, but it's nice.

    Second I started getting raisin. I think that's what makes it "tobacco", that raisin smell from a fresh pack of cigarettes.

    Third, I'm in. It's a pleasant, non-sweet vape that has all the high points - throat hit, vapor, flavor that doesn't overwhelm you. Other notes are there, like coconut and caramel, but they're subtle and elusive. It's a nice change from all my sweet flavors. It's not tobacco to me at all, but I get why people get that, if that makes sense. Actually, to be honest, this is what a cigarette SHOULD taste like.

    Okay, this one is going in a carto tank, and I'm ordering more! I can totally see vaping this all day. I'm going to try some of their other flavors, too.

    I finally opened mine yesterday after letting it sit for a bit. I like it....BUT....I've never coughed so much in my life! It wasn't a dry cough - more like I was sensitive to something in it. Sadly, in the end I had to dump it. I'm not sensitive to Vg that I know of so presumably something in the flavorings? Has anyone else ever had this problem? And I tried it in two separate clearos in case it was something to do with a tank/coil:(
