The Cherry Blossom I left steep for a couple of days and first tried it on the Beach in 100 degree weather. I am surprised but tastes are subjective. Maybe you need to up the flavor what percentage did you you use? The Baked Cinnamon Roll you also might need to up the percentage. I like light flavors but sometimes need to double them up.

Also may depend on brand of flavor.

Okies!! I got clearance to share the recipe. @Kodak has some really great juices and puts me to shame when it comes to making up new stuff! Y'all really should try this one! (The additional notes are hers as well. :) )

Iced Lemon Cookie:
3% Cookie FA
4% Lemon Sicily FA
1% Vienna Cream FA
.5% Sweetner (I use CAP's Supersweet and ECX sweetner usually)
Sweetener can be adjusted to individual tastes

Oh that sounds good ... I on a Key Lime and Lemon-Lime vape kick right now ... this could be one to try next.

Thanks. I'm going to order a couple of these. I've got the jar sized grippers in the kitchen and I remember wishing you could get them in small sizes. One comment said they worked most of the time, and if they did slip on something really tight you could make them work by putting a rubber band on underneath.

I never had ceramic tweezers. The reviews I saw for them were always full of comments about them being fragile and breaking. I have a feeling if you use these things for unscrewing tight tanks the ceramic bits aren't going to last long. Never know though.

The 'rcomin' brand was the original I think ... now you can find them w/ adjustable and or multiple interchangable size grips. Sometime you really need to squeeze them to hold w/o slipping. But overall I find 2 pair of them very useful at the vape table.

It's not a real puckery lemon, but it does have zing. INW Lemon will work too--I've tried it before. To me the Lemon Sicily is just a little smoother so I stuck with it...most citrus flavors will make me start coughing, so I have to be careful with em.

Hello porchers. @Kaezziel reminded me of this thread again. How is everyone? Hope everything is going well with all. Whoever talked about the cigar, I used to smoke B&M with a good whiskey. Now just vape a dark pipe vape that I really enjoy. A vanilla bourbon is my fave.

I used the recommended % but I just didn't care for the cherry flavor too fakey for me. I like flavors that taste like what they are called never tasted a cherry like that. The Russian stuff although some of the fruits are kinda weak taste just like the fruit they are supposed to. Take the Cherry for instance tastes just like a pie cherry.

It was Liquid Barn and I am surprised he did not find them to be as good as I did.
Well like you say taste is subjective. I'll give some of the others a try and see if I can find some that I like. I don't have any idea how these Russians make their flavorings but they all taste like they are supposed to. If you want to try a good Creme Brulee go to Vaping Zone and order a bottle of their Gourmet Super Concentrate Creme Brulee and use it at 2-2.5% not over 2.5% too strong so a 10ml bottle goes a long way. They are the only ones in the US that I know of that sells the Russians flavors but it is under their name and it the Gourmet SC not the SC

Oh ... I just noticed your a PA resident too ... ain't it swell what they're doing w/ the new 40% tax. :mad: I sure hope that new initiative makes it through in time to change it. A 5 cents per ml tax on juice is less damaging to the PA vape vendors then the 40% wholesale tax.

Not a fan, but knew it was coming. Started to become self relying on juices.

The guy in Germany is the only one I know that has a special agreement with the Russian to be able to get his flavors and sell them under the name brand which is Bakers Flavors. He also lives in Moscow but goes back and forth to run his ecig businesses in Germany.

It is a little bit of a crazy way to get that certain juice but have been in contact with him quite a bit through emails and he is a really nice guy. He told me he loves Moscow he's not Russian but loves it there. He said his flat there costs $4000 equal to that amount but outside of the city it is cheap which you can see by the prices that the Russian in the country sells his juice for. He makes the juices up special for him with labeling in Russian, German and English. I've gotten some directly from the Russian and it is a job trying to figure out what they are. Everything is in Russian, ever tried to translate the Russian alphabet? It's crazy but at $8 for 100ml it's great if they ever make it to you. Half of our $600 order didn't and no recourse because you have to send him the money Western Union and then wait about 5-6 weeks. If you get it you get it. He makes the orders up special for each order and trying to communicate with them is next to impossible, language barrier and it has to all be through email. It's crazy. From Germany it takes about 3 weeks.
