Opinions on different vendor's 555 juice

[redgirl]

I saw the "who has the best RY4" thread and had to post this one I've only tried 2, but found that I like Nhaler's 555. It's very smooth and mildly nutty. I've tried another one that tasted like super raw peanuts that was kind of bitter. Any other opinions on other brands of 555?

Bumping this because I want to know, too.

So, 555, is it supposed to be a tobacco flavor with a nut undertone? or a nut flavor with a tobacco undertone? guess i am just conna have to order a bottle to find out

 

[redgirl]

It's supposed to be a mild tobacco flavor with a hint of nutiness. I definitely recommend Nhaler's if you want to try one.

redgirl ~ Nhaler appears to have a couple of different ones. Do you recall which one you tried? I see a 555 available as both Nhale/Xhale Liquid and also under the HIGH VOLTAGE Liquid.

 

[redgirl]

I got the Nhale/Xhale 555 because it is 24mg. The HV is only 12mg. I don't know if they taste the same or not.

Dawn's 555 at diyflavorshack is the best imo and the one I prefer.

 

[Sherrick]

I would very much like to try Dawn's 555, but in all honesty, the price puts me off a bit. It seems so much more expensive than the other options available. It might very well be worth the difference in cost, but I'm going to hold off until I either have a better financial situation on my end or can find a way to try it for a lesser investment.

The only 555's I have tried are the standard Dekang and V4L. Love my 555, would definitely try different recipes if they were available.

Mmmmm...more 555.

I saw some good reviews of Strictly Ejuice's 555 on /www.e-liquid-reviews.com and decided to place an order. The price seemed very reasonable and they offer free shipping on orders over $10 if you're willing to wait a few extra days. I thought it was worth a shot. I'll let you know what I think when it arrives.

I also contacted Nhaler to see if I could get a sense of the flavor difference - if any - between their High Voltage version of 555 and the Nhale / Xhale formula. I'll post back when I get a response on that as well.

Premium or Classic 555?

strictlyejuice's 555 is really good. I like it alot. It's the only 555 I have ever tried but I like it a lot.

MyFreedomSmokes has a pretty good 555 too.

 

[Sherrick]

I received a response from Drew at Nhaler regarding the different 555's they stock. He indicated that they both - the High Voltage and Nhale / Xhale versions - taste quite similar. He suggested that I get a sample of both and also suggested that I could combine them to even out the nic levels, as the HV is available in only 12mg and the Nhale / Xhale in only 24mg. Might have to do exactly that.

I like this one also - I think its the only one I actually liked lol

 

[redgirl]

Yeah, unfortunately, Dawn's was the other one that I tried and I did not like it at all. It seemed TOO nutty and kind of bitter - almost like eating real peanuts.

I'll have to give myfreedomsmokes another try. I haven't tried any of their tobaccos, only keoke coffee/caramel, which was way too intense for me.

Anyone try Liberty Flights tobacco flavors? If so, how is their 555?

 

[matt_2250]

My +1 for BE's 555. I'm vaping it @ 36mg and it's pretty damn good. Occasionally it kinda of harsh on the throat but thats probably a function of the high nic (I've only vaped BE's 36mg liquids, but I have 15 of them).

Smell : Strong. Sweet peanut butter with a distinct smokey and almost burnt-tasting undertone. Its dark and earthy. But some people who I've given a smell have gone POPCORN! *shrugs*

Taste : A little less sweet, the burnt flavour comes through a bit more. The nuttiness lingers longer, leaving me always wanting more.

Very pleasant 1 part BE Menthol 3 parts BE 555 too.

Are strictlyejuice & bestecig's liquids dekang?

Are strictlyejuice & bestecig's liquids dekang?

Yesterday, before I placed my order with strictlyejuice, I looked and looked trying to figure out if their juice was of their own making or from Dekang or perhaps another supplier. I didn't find anything. Today, reading your question, I went back and looked again and immediately found the page on the strictlyejuice site that said it is indeed Dekang / Boge juice. Interesting that I couldn't find it when I wanted to know, but when you asked, I was able to pull it up immediately. Apparently I'm a knucklehead.

So, does this mean that all Dekang 555 is identical from vendor to vendor? If so, and I find that I like it, then I simply would have to find the best overall price from a vendor that I like, right? Most of the vendors are probably not tweaking the juice in-house with the Dekang factory juice as a base, correct?

Conversely, if I'm thinking about this properly, if I find that I don't care for the 555 from strictlyejuice (and I'm hoping that I absolutely love it), then I should probably not spend money with other vendors that retail Dekang's 555 juice, because it is going to be pretty much exactly the same from vendor to vendor, correct?

Or am I missing something here?
