Ive been really wanting to taste some of TVs juices everyone raves about. I don't, however, want to end up with an ounce of juice I don't care for, and springing for $15 a pop to try each juice is just out of my reach :(

I know I read that in one thread that there were a few being offered in smaller bottles, but am wondering if this has been expanded at all? Nothing that I want to try is actually on that list.

If not, might there be a TV fan out there that would be willing to sell me a small sample of any of the following:

Caramel Popcorn
Almond Horn
Earl Grey
Any Cupcake Variety

the reason he only does 1oz is because EVERY SINGLE bottle is completely custom created, based on vg, nic, personal preference etc. i only vape like 1.5 ml a day, and have like 20 bottles, none of which i have finished in my year of vaping tv. but when one of his closest competitors charges 12 for 15ml, off the shelf, preservative filled juice thats nowhere near as good, its worth it. your best bet is to base your decisionon on juices you've tried from other vendors and reviews found on here. for the cupcake, just make a cupcake that you'd like to eat. that one you cant really go wrong with. the new almond horn is a marzipan type almond into a pastry, lots of ppl love it. the only 2 bottles i cant vape heavily are spiced rum and irish cream, but i still have them every so often. every other favor i love. you really cant go wrong if you get flavors on fotw as well.... 10 bucks a bottle is a really good deal

Hi Ames

Lots of vendors mix from scratch :)

I'm not complaining about the prices or Geoff's business decision to only offer 1oz sizes, but I truly don't want an oz of anything I'm not sure I will love. I'm an unemployed adult student living off my dwindling savings...don't have a lot of money to throw around in an unknown like that....thus my request to purchase smaller samples from those in this subforum that are willing so I can then happily place an order for a larger bottle.

Thanks in advance to anyone willing to help.

i'm only employed for maybe 5 months of the year on a good season, and at 19, am not old enough to have significant savings at all; yet based on others reviews and my known flavor preferences, i rarely find a juice i do not love. the only 2 i dont love were 2 i wasnt sure i would but really wanted to try qnd i do still vape them, just not much

I was reading this thread from my phone last night and was confused why Ghost Song was asking about preservatives, but now I understand.

Honestly there is nothing to preserve in juice...so I can't imagine anyone is actually using them. That would be a gross neglectful act to all of us. I think Ames was just being a fanboy and trying to help the sale, which isn't needed for me...I'm not interested in TV for the prices, or because Geoff "mixes fresh". I think every US juice vendor mixes fresh unless its China juice. I'm interested because of the fan reports on certain flavors (caramel popcorn and almond horn get mentioned A LOT on these forums and elsewhere), and because Ive read how he makes the earl grey which sounds ingeniously amazing to me!

I'm probably much more picky in my flavors than others. If I try something and I don't like it, it goes in my PIF/swap pile so someone else can give it a try.

In any case, many many thanks to Hailey for allowing me to sample her caramel popcorn and cupcake before I spread my wings and invest in a big bottle!

Ever notice how Tasty Vapor liquid turns dark over time and we claim that our liquids have a shorter shelf life? Well, because we don't use antioxidants or color preservatives to prevent the liquid from darkening and inhibitors in our liquids to extend the shelf life. This is why we say our liquids, stored under proper conditions, will last you eight months.

Knowing this, should you really wonder what is in the liquid that has a year shelf life and is able to maintain its color throughout its life?

Just because you don't know about it(preservatives), doesn't mean it's not in there.

But more on topic. Yes, 1 ounce is the minimum. Because of our business model, the labor that goes into our liquids, it doesn't matter who brings up the concern about it not working for them, it doesn't change how we do things around here, so we have to consider things like what is the minimum quantities we can afford to mix given the labor constraints...

The fact that we're putting the samples we ARE putting up soon, kind of goes against that business model, but we're willing to alter that a little to provide a little additional convenience for some.... In any case...Yes, 1 ounce by most standards, is the minimum we are willing to make.

If that doesn't work for some, that's fine. Nobody but the 7 people who work for Tasty Vapor will have the truest understanding of why we don't do certain things.

Considering what is it 5000 chemicals they put in cigs? Which you don't see listed on any cig box. Yes juice producers put preservatives in their juices! I had a couple small juices from before I heard about TV And a year later their the same color! Tossed those without even tasting them. I would send ya some but I vape at 48 mg so it would probably put you in a coma! LOL. But my last two orders I did drop down to 36 mg accept 1 bottle. I haven't tried biscotti only because I don't like anise. I do have earl grey but added a bit of ultimate vanilla to it. I do have the almond horn though at 48 mg.

Im feeling a coma coming on just thinking about 48mg holy kramunga! Your avatar is exactly what I would look like if we could also get the hair to stand straight up like an electrical shock.

I didn't realize Biscotti has anise in it so never mind on that. My grammys were almond. I'll drink sambucca or ouzo till the cows come home, though :)

I'm a straight shooter as well, Geoff... appreciate it.

Note: Biscotti does NOT comes with anise by default, it would need to be requested.

What? You been holding out on me Geoff? Someone said it came with anice and you had to request not to add it! My apologies to anyone I may have steered away from biscotti! Now I'm gonna have to try it knowing there's no anice :)

"Someone said..." Pfft, you should know better than to listen to what someone said and just ask me directly!
