I haven't seen much posting on these guys...but decided to try them after reading them mention in the Vaper's Handbook

I ordered a few flavors as a test order. Triple V, Hyper hillbilly, Creamy Joe, Chocolate Mocha. ( can you tell I like coffee flavors? LOL)

The Vapors handbook says I shouldn't have to steep. ...but other juices I have got like BWB had very little flavor even after a week......these were born on 10/8/2012.....so they are steeping...but I had to at least give a test!!

Right out of the bat when I opened the bottles they had alot more "scent" then ANY juice I have purchased so far....I know scent does not equal flavor...but wow...the smell delish already. First one I tested was Triple V. If you have been reading any of my other post I have been complaining that I have spent tons of money on e-juices and getting nearly no flavors.....well.....I now get it!!

The triple V was like an explosion of vanilla wafers in my mouth...not overly sweet....just perfect....it was a great vape on its own, and im sure would blend well with other flavors like coffee ( Have I mentioned I like coffee?...LOL) or tobacco....(my mind is racing!..would be good mixed with a strawberry....heck even a banana flavor....may taste like banana pudding!!)

I ordered his juices in a typical 70/30 blend in 12mg...highly recommended!!

Glad you liked them . . . even if it was on the recommendation of that guy.

I agree on the Triple V. It and Creamy Joe were the first juices I ever bought, and I liked both of them. And I continue to re-order both of them. (How's that for being lucky?) I haven't tried Hyper Hillbilly, but I have Hillbilly Heaven and I like it a lot. In fact, I think I need to re-order some of it and Triple V.

I did not care for the French Vanilla Cappucino, which I found to be bitter, or the Turkish Hills, which absolutely knocked me on my .... I still have some of the Turkish Hills, but I'm hesitant to try it because I had a hard time getting the flavor out of my clearo I was using at the time. I could vape it if I didn't inhale and just smoked it like I was smoking a pipe. Maybe I need to cut it 50/50 with some Triple V.

Anyway, glad you found some you like. DCV is not on many people's radar screen, but they do have some good juices.

LOL...have no idea what THAT guy means...lol..( i'm a newbie after all!).I did find his vapors handbook had some useful info....

Thanks for the heads up on the flavors you didn't like!.......I will know what NOT to try :)

I can't imagine these getting better after steeping...these are awesome as is.....what shocks me is these guys are under the radar...and I have order a bunch of juice based on hype...( Like BWB)....and even now...after two weeks...still almost no flavor for my taste buds....Im sure they will get better otherwise I doubt there would be such a loyal following....but the flavors on these just popped....just shocked at how good these taste!

I just ordered another very popular brand on the forum ahlusion....curious how they will compare when they arrive

I've just had several run-ins with that guy. Let's just say that we don't see eye-to-eye on some things. I just can't stand self-annointed "experts".

If you order the Hillbilly Heaven, you might want to try a sample first. You might hate it.

I vaped my DCV juices right out of the mailbox too, and I was happy with them. Frankly, I can't say they got any better with steeping because they were already good. Maybe they were pre-steeped. Who knows.

I haven't tried Ahlusion, but I think they are the real deal. I suspect you will like their juice. They are next on my list of vendors to try.

I just got in a big order from HHV. They are steeping, but I've sampled them (dripped a few drops of each on an atomizer), and I can tell they are the real deal too. Put HHV on your list of vendors to try.

Ohhhhh.... THAT guy......

Yes, THAT guy. The guy who practically guaranteed that a certain soon-to-be-released VV PV was going to save the universe from certain destruction (while also stealing 100% of all market share from the Provari). Oh, and then it turned out that the vendor pulled it off the website (before it ever hit the streets) due to quality issues. Fail. :facepalm:

:lol: LOL.

bb, sorry about hijacking your thread. I'll stop my threadjacking now.

Lmao...Now I will have to do a search !! I have a eGo twist...but find I use LR most of the time and running between 3.7 to 4.2 range mostly....

Im thinking iof just keeping it simple...keep my eGo as a back ups...or travel but really thinking of a non variable for my main PV....Im thinking the SB.....

anyways back to these juices.....simply blown away off the bat on the flavor...I don't know why the other guys stuff has to be steeped...when his has a born on date of last week and is simply delish!! I almost dont want to rave about them so as not to create a shortage...LOL Next order will be HUGE bottles.....right now I'm looking at many bottle of other vendors juice and thinking one thing......PIF....but almost feel bad that Im piffing juices that suck in comparison...LOL

I have a friend that just started vaping....she may like them...

Bah, I just ordered the A606 kit off their site, was thinking about picking up a few juices to try as well, but I had just ordered a bunch of samples from Juicy Vapor. But since the prices are rather good and my order hasn't shipped yet... maybe I could tack it on somehow?

I would call or drop him a note asap...I love his e juices.....tons of flavor!! for comparison...and again...taste is subjective...I tired vaping again tonight some BWB Malty toffee that was born 10/1/2012......still not enough steep....the flavor was better than last week....but still weak......I then loaded up a small tank with Chocolate Mocha and WOW!! great!! but his triple V I want by the gallons....either to straight vape...or even mix....hands done it is simply a awesome vape

Ive noticed this on other forums too....I have one of the biggest threads on a wet shaving forum...google Brotherhood of the Open comb....I started that....and guys go through trends..this razor is far better than that one.....I'm also a guitar player and see the same thing on the guitar forum with the latest pick up builders...every few moths we seem to have a new builder doing a PAF pickup better than the last guy....

I listen to the trends and advice from everyone here...but realize it all boils down to taste buds....and Dark city does my taste buds well!!

I've had more than my share of run-ins with "That Guy", myself, probably more so than others. Hint: APV sub-forum category. I think he means well, just comes across as very opinionated, biased, and prejudiced.

Now, back on topic. :blush:

I recently got sample packs from Dark City. I got Creamy Joe, Hyper Hillbilly, Chocolate Mocha, Chocolate Mocha Shake, Chocolate Fudgesycle, Fuzzy Peach, Srawberry Freeze, and Cake Mix. I've only tried the Creamy Joe, Hyper Hillbilly and Fuzzy Peach. I enjoyed all three, probably enough to order more and keep in my stock. I've got two more IBTanked's coming this week so I have something to put all these new flavors in.

I'm a coffee flavor nut also. If you haven't tried yet, check out VapeRite's Double Espresso and Kona Cream. :wub:
Also Copper Creek's Coffee, and Virgin Vapor's Kona Velvet Milkshake. :wub::wub:

I need to place an order with Copper Creek for some Coffee and some House Blend. Been meaning to try those for a long time.

I'm still searching for the perfect coffee juice. I've got HHV's Java Smooth and Mocha Java Smooth steeping right now.

I also bought some of VV's Organic Kona Coffee Milkshake. It's been steeping for over 3 weeks now, and it's still not ready for prime time (to my tastes). I still have hope for it,though.

My very favorite juice flavors are VapeRite's Double Espresso, Virgin Vapor's Kona Velvet Milkshake, and Copper Creek's Coffee (with some sweet cream flavor added).

CC's House Blend used to be right up there with them, but I must have burnt myself out on that flavor. It tastes like cookie or cake batter to me, which I totally enjoyed for a couple of months. I did renew my liking for awhile by adding some caramel flavoring to it, but even that doesn't quite cut the cake anymore. :p

VapeRite's Kona Cream is very similar to the Kona Velvet Milkshake, with slightly different undertones in the background. Vape Dude's Mocha Java Drizzle is also an excellent juice that falls into the coffee frappe/milkshake category. The VV's Kona Coffee is a fine juice, but to me it is not quite on par with the Velvet variety. Of course, juice tastes are completely subjective.

The great thing I love about the Provari is being able to vape all these seemingly similar flavors, but with variable voltage I am able to detect the fine undertone flavors that set them apart from each other.

It sounds like we have alot of coffee fans here.....I find myself blending various coffees....the Hyper Hillbilly is a doubleshot espresso ....and is good by it self...or adding something the triple V with it too....

I will be ordering some HHV next round too....but DCV will always be in my ordering from rotation....Bill has a great sense of blending and getting flavors right without tasting artificial or chemically ....

I am really glad I decided to try this company.....I think everyone needs to try at least a sampler pack...you will re order!!!
