Give the Malibu a couple days - I would almost bet money it will be even better....just my opinion. Might have to try that one

Do they change much over time?
Its good now but hoping the coconut comes out a little more, it really shouldn't be so shy

I do. It's a completly diff juice a week later. It's really good. I uped my mg to 24 with it. I think the 12-8 Maxx range for me is best. However I just won't vape it as much in 1 session. It's awesome

Umm . . . I so hope that steeping really does change/flavor up the juice!

I received my package today of 4 juices and matching cartos (plus a Malibu sampler -- thanks, Jayson!), and, um, I nearly wept with surprise and disappointment. I can hardly taste anything in any of the cartos, except for a weird plastic-y taste (and a dash of cinnamon in the Cotton Candy ).

Y'all EV vets, PLEASE tell me that the cartos and juice just need a couple of weeks' cool dark sleep! 8-o

If anything the majority of our liquids are strong flavors. I have received no complaints on the cartos tasting plastic-y. What device are you using them on? The juice steeping that everyone is discussing is definitely a fact. We are stocking large quantities now so that they will have time to steep before being shipped.

I didn't get any plastic flavor with mine either. I've so far only tried 5 flavors but they were all good and strong. Not sure what's up with that?

Hi Jayson. I am using them on the V--t.

I "know" many of the regulars here on your thread, so I expected I could count on us having similar tastes in juice "bases." I will just let them steep for at least a week -- maybe my tastebuds are wonky today?? (Although usual daily vapes are tasting the same . . .)

I do SO want to love these!

Perfect device. I will not be able to sleep now.... Which of the flavors have you tried? The pearberry for sure should have great flavor.

In no way am I trying to say you aren't experiencing what you are saying but man I hope your taste buds are Wonky....I have never had a "weak" tasting juice or carto from EV.

Noooooooooooooo - it can't be true

Seriously I hope everything is better the next time you try them

 

[jayson]

Me too.

Let me know how the juices work out and what I can do to make it right.

Oh no! I didn't mean to ruin your night! I got Cotton Candy (cartos + juice), Blueberry Cream (cartos + juice), Pearberry (cartos + juice), and Strawnana (juice only). Umm, the Pearberry was especially weird!

I know! Thanks -- I think it's a combo of wonky tastebuds and the need to steep . . . (Or I'm holding you and Kee and Connie and a bunch of others responsible! )

Me too.

Let me know how the juices work out and what I can do to make it right.

Good news: I put the Strawnana into a blank V**t carto, and it tasted really good right away! I'm thinking the others will improve with age (will try them again in a week) -- or maybe it was just the cartos themselves?? (Haven't tried their corresponding juices yet.)

I'll let you know!

 

[jayson]

I'm still confused by this. Our liquids have received really good reviews by some pretty tough critics. Did the cartomizers appear to be full? The only issue I have ever had is with a couple having too much liquid in them. I will get you some blanks out so that you can try the other liquids. Sorry for the problems.

 

[EleanorR]

Yes, the cartos were quite juicy . . .

Jayson, please don't upset yourself over this. I really expect the juice will be fine with age; as to the cartos . . . maybe they will too.

I assume you vape too, so you know how it goes with new stuff: win some, lose some . . .

 

[marlou]

Jayson, thank you for the Blueberry Cream sample! I got my juice order yesterday and of course tried them all. They were all good though some tasted like they needed to steep a bit. I got RY4, Cowboy, Pearberry, Malibu, Waffle and Key Lime. Been vaping Pearberry all day, along with the 3 tobaccos and chocolate that I always have going. Not paying attention I topped off a tobacco carto with Pearberry and it tasted great! lol Like crbrown I thought the Malibu was light on coconut, but when I tried it again tonight more coconut flavor was there. Malibu is an interesting flavor and I'm liking it a lot.

Both times I tried Waffle was after supper and it didn't really hit the spot. Tomorrow morning I'll try it with my coffee. The only one I'm not liking a whole lot is Key Lime, but that could change. With all the raves on Strawnana that will be next on my list.

Good job Jayson and thanks again for the sample!

 

[jayson]

No problem. I'm glad you like them.

 

[ConnieBGood]

I have been very busy and not on-line or would have said something sooner. Yes, even the carts need to steep sometimes. I may be wrong but think Jayson fills his in-house and therefore would be much fresher than other places. VERY good thing in my opinion.

Yes, you may have to steep juice and carts but the payoff is worth it. Like I said before I LIKE tasting the changes as they age. It is fun to see what flavors you get as they develop. (I know, I"m weird. *sigh*) What will it taste like today?

Sometimes your taste buds for juice will be off and all your juice will taste meh. Don't know why but others have mentioned it before. That's when I bring out the menthol! Seems to help.

Caramel Apple, for instance, started out with no flavor, then a smoky caramel, then mostly apple and now apple with a caramel undertone to me.

You never know what wonderful flavor you will have in 2 weeks. I have yet to be disappointed with the finale outcome. So be sure not to give up on a juice too soon.

 

[jayson]

What she said. And GO CARDINALS!!!!!!!

FINALLY received my first order. Protesting customs workers at the Kuwaiti airport wound up getting my first order kicked back. I bounced one of their skulls off a table a few times and now that problem no longer exists.
Second order wound up in the local APO office for 3 days until I went down there and fetched it using my should-be-patented skull-bounce negotiation method.

Not too happy with what I found inside the package. The 30ml of Cinn-Danish was fine. The tiny surprise sampler of Malibu was fine. None of those had leaks.
But the cartos of Waffle, Cotton Candy, and Cinn-Danish looked as if the cartos were overfilled, capped, then placed in the containers and then shrink-wrapped and shipped.
Unsat no matter how you look at it. That's a quality control problem.





So far I've only had time to check out the cinn-danish and so far it's excellent. Just disappointed with the way it was packaged.
The Cotton Candy and Waffle should also taste excellent as well, more info after I get time to test them.

UPDATE: Glad I got the 30ml bottle of Cinnamon Danish! That #$@% is addictive! In the future I'll probably just be buying bottles of liquid so I don't waste time cleaning out packs of overfilled cartos. QA that carto schizzle before mailing it out, Jayson!
I'll let you know how your Malibu stacks up against a competitors famous "pure" Malibu.

So would I order from EliteVaporWorks again? Definitely, only just the bottles of liquid not the cartos unless things change in the future. Jayson took great pains to re-ship out to me after upset ...... at the Kuwaiti custom house decided to play little games with me.
One can slap my momma and smack my sister and I'll shake it off, but touch my money and I'll throw you an insta-beating.

 

[jayson]

Whoa.... Not sure what happened to the cartos. Looks like all the liquid made its way outside of the cartos. I can assure you I would never ship a product that looked like that. I personally repacked your order after it was returned by customs and the cartos were fine at that time. I am wondering if they sat out in the heat or something. This order took forever to get to you. I will be contacting you via email to get you a credit/replacement.

Also thank you for your service whatever it is you do over there in the dessert. Sounds like a lot of skull bouncing.

Oh Yeah - GO CARDS!!!

 

[jayson]

Oh Yeah - GO CARDS!!!

Quite the game wasn't it?

 

[Lauralie]

Quite the game wasn't it?

Wasn't it though.....planned on going to sleep early and that just wasn't a possibility. I wrote it off as a loss a couple times....glad I was wrong!!!!

 

[iball]

I've never had cartos show up like this before and I have ordered about 20 5-packs that shipped here, both blister-pack cartos and ones in cases like yours.
