BB is the 4th juice i've tried. I'm new at this. The first time I hit it BAM! Grapes! Almost like grape soda. When I exhaled it was bananas. The grape blast at the begining only lasts the first couple of hits then fades and I'm left with a very nice earthy banana. My conclusion, Boba is a Gorilla. :)

Grapes and banana?:confused: Are you positive that you have Boba's Bounty by AveJuice? Please double check that label.:laugh:

I know that taste is subjective and everyone has different tastes but................ grapes is a totally new one for me but I have heard someone mention raisins.

:) that's what the bottle says. I have some Gorilla Juice here but it's unopened. I have to finish this tank before I try it. I like it. Way better than that other stuff I tried. I was amazed at the taste. It surprised me.

The Gorilla juice is like Boba's with bananas so you might want to try using the Boba's with a different atty or at a different voltage to see if that makes any difference. Also, I was wondering what nic strength you have, type of device, voltage and atomizer or cartomizer you are using.

I have to go to bed now but will be back later to read.:)

I'm not planning on going bananas on equipment. I just have an eGo-t Mega with the B atty. I have an LR atty for it but I haven't used it yet. I was using the Dekang 7 wolves before this but I cleaned the atty pretty good. That really was my first impression though. Grapes then Bananas. Whatever it is I like it.:) Now that I've spent a little more time with it I guess it could be a little carmel also. My taste buds probably are messed up though. I was sucking on Camels for a long time.:D I have the 18mg Juice. It may not be high enough cause I'm still cravin' the nails.

I just love this stuff. I ordered only a 12ml bottle the first time.....and I'm on the last carto with only what's left in the carto and an empty bottle and I'm super bummed. Thankfully, I ordered 120mls of it a week ago, so at least I'll get some more after the weekend (in Canada).

I searched the thread for apple and only found 3 hits....I'm surprised more people don't identify it as such. To me, it tastes like my mom's best apple crisp (crumble)......cooked apple, brown sugar, toasted oats.

Surely, this and Gorilla Juice are my ADVs.

OK now this thread has me really confused. Boba's Bounty is listed in the tobacco flavors and no one is even mentioning that it tastes like tobacco. :confused:I've heard apple, banana, grape, caramel, chocolate, graham cracker and a lot more that that I don't feel like typing. Now that it's 20% off I'm just gonna have to place an order and find out for myself. What about their other flavors especially the non tobaccos? How do they compare to other top vendors? Would it be best if I just ordered tobacco from AVE and got my sweet juices elsewhere? :?:Thanks.

My taste bud read on Boba's is raisin/caramel/slight chocolate.

I am so sad that the 20% off sale is going on now - I need more Boba's but my debit card was was used for a fraud purchase so I had to cancel it- waiting on a new one and the sale will be over well before I get my new card! wah wah. #firstworldproblem

No single flavor really stands out but there is real tobacco in there. I have been vaping strictly Boba's for 2 years now and have never tasted any fruit whatsoever but possibly some graham, chocolate or caramel. Whatever is in Boba's, it can usually satisfy even a current smoker or a newbie vaper who still craves cigs.

About those sweet juices, I would at least give AveJuice a try since you already know most everything they make is awesome. They do not have a hundred different flavors but what they do have is great juices with extensive testing to back them. I have tried every single one of their tobacco juices but only about half of the non tobacco sweet stuff and I can say that most of them are true to their names. The only one that I didn't care for was the caramel kicker but then again, I only vape Boba's.

Hope this helps some.

In my opinion... they really do things differently... I have never tasted an AV juice and though that it tasted like another vendors juice... there VG juices are more dripping friendly IMO...

I am a fan...

My fav AV Flavors include: boba's CD, Gamel, Irish Cream, Pineapple and gorillas

Alright, so I have wanted to post here for a while, but figured I'd wait untill I had something to contribute. I have read much of, though not all of the 82 pages here. I want to diy something that tasts similar to Boba's, which is my favorite pre-mixed juice. I tried 3 diy flavor companies, with poor results in regards to mimicking Boba's, then I tried Cappellas. I opened the box when it came and smelled the Cinnamon Danish Swirl and the Gingerbread, to me they both smell ALMOST IDENTICAL to how boba's smells! I was so happy, but then I mixed them and the result tasted NOTHING like boba's... just like strange nasty chemicals... I tried various levels of flavor, as well as mixing in some Cappellas Graham Cracker... Not good. Your thoughts...???

Today I got a package from Bewsii. I bought a huge Juice lot from him and the first bottle I grabbed was a half full bottle of Boba's Bounty. I swear to all that is unholy I gasped, coughed then fell in love. It reminded me of when I was a kid and on Christmas Morning my mom would make these special carmalized bread rolls with Nuts in them. OMG so delicious. I haven't tasted anything close to that until today. Completely hooked, line and sinker.

Love this stuff. Love it love it love it. Oh... did I say I love it?

The key component that you are missing is the tobacco extracted base. If you recall in one of the posts, Ben did say that it was nearly impossible to make Boba's in zero nic because of the small amount of nicotine already in the base. Also you have to remember that just because something smells good, it doesn't always taste like it smells. Found this out the hard way by licking strippers, don't ask me about it but I am sure a lot of guys here can relate.:laugh:

You cannot mimic a taste by recreating the way it smells, same reason that all the so called flavorings from PA were a big fail for me. While they might be perfectly fine when used for what they were initially intended to be, a perfume or fragrance, I don't want any of those chemical tasting perfumes in my juice.

Thanks, I agree with everything you said. I figured I'd need to add a tobacco like base - I was gunna use ginger -but I'm not using that perfumey stuff... So has this thread come to any sort of agreement as to what besides vg, nic and tobacco extract is being used in Boba's? I've only read half... And it would help others who just got here.

I could not agree more about the chemical taste, which means that I don't like many of my diy flavors... I have a bunch of flavors from tpa, fa, cap, and nature's flavors... honestly, I haven't tried some of them because of the horrible chemical smells.
The point I would like to make here is this: nature's flavors is the only one that smells natural to me... thier gingerbread is amazing, though not in the same way as boba's at all. But I'm vaping a cherry colla green apple blend from cap right now though (it's alright I guess) because I have concerns about the suitable of nature's flavors coffee and tea flavors for vaping. I have these concerns because 2 of the 6 flavors I got from them had sediment in them... Not the gingerbread that I like so much, but still...
Ps, I'm sorry if I got off topic here. Maybe I should start a thread about this diy issue... :)
