Water is great and Colorado has a very liberal self distribution laws. So does California and Washington which is no surprise that those three states have the most craft breweries.

Looks like Nicoticket's home of Omaha, NE has a brewery called Infusion Brewing Co. with a belgian wit called Re-Fresh. F5?
So that is why we can't get any more Refresh after this SR! It's going into a different kind of brew!
1. H1N1/The Virus*
2. Hummingbird
3. Wakonda
4. Grape Ape/Home Slice
4. Gravity*
5. Betelgeuse*
6. Peanut Butter Cookie/Home Slice
7. Banana Pudding
8. GCD*/Doodle
9. CLS*
10. CB*
I am still waiting for CLS to bloom into something for me...and Doodle did nothing for me, but I get that lots of folks love those. Decided to try CLS over CB at the time I did that order so never tried that either.
Home Slice appears in 2 slots as it could kill 2 birds with one stone.

It was a short run a couple of months ago, Lychee and Cranberry in max VG.
I hope it comes back around, it is delicious imo and I don't have near enough.
1. CLS*- My first order and all time fav!
2. CB*
3. Frenilla
4. Virus* -The one that tricked me. I was using it for a change, contrast in flavors. One day I realized I was almost out and went into panic mode. Whatttt?
5. Radioactive
6. Banana Pudding
7. Betelgeuse*
8. Raz Cup
9.Wakonda
10. Doodle - not one of my favs but lots of the NT fam luvs it
Haven't tried GCD, Gravity, Hummingbird, or PBJ yet. Plan to order more BP and PBJ today!

Infusion is a good time - we've been down there a couple times with friends and we really enjoyed the experience. I can't say I have tried the beer because I'm not much of a drinker... but our friends seem to enjoy it
I'm usually the DD P
I just cried. A lot.
That sounds absoultely delish.
I just hate to see girls cry. Hopefully it will make a comeback. This will make for a happy Tarja.

Me too. Sounds like heaven (although I don't like 100%VG)
Okay, I have not read through the entire thread but here are a few flavor picks - not ranked by importance, just what came to mind first.
(Disclaimer: Some of my opinions will piss people off.)
I think variety is what draws some people in - a lot of the flavors on Nicoticket are similar to one another, and as much as I appreciate their nuances, I wondered at first when I bought Creme Brulee and CLS if there was a mistake and I got the same flavor twice. It took steeping and paying more attention to see their differences. I think customers will be more attracted to, say, a varied range of flavors.
1) Custard's Last Stand.
2) Frenilla. This is made from the vanilla extract that goes into Custard's Last Stand, Creme Brulee, and some other flavors. People rave over it. To begin with it's a frequent "short run" anyway - please please keep it.
3) Butterscotch Pudding. Tell you what, I'd sacrifice Creme Brulee for it. When I vape Creme Brulee, especially after steeping, the "burntness" of the caramel comes out more. It's actually more chocolately if anything when it HASN'T steeped too much, but I've had a few - just a few - people complain that it smells funky, like tobacco or campfire wood when I vape it. If something's gonna let off any kind of "burnt" smell, I'll try a tobacco flavor. I mean, I DO like Creme Brulee and not everyone says it smells "burnt", but some do, and if I had to give up something, I'd give that up, as long as Custard or Butterscotch are around. Plus, when you guys had Butterscotch Pudding in stock, it disappeared like *POOF*, despite it's relatively higher price. I think that's a sign it's a contender
4) Coolcumber Mint or Root Beer Float. When I vape one of these, I feel like I'm actually cleaning my palate and lungs out. Coolcumber moreso than RBF, but Root Beer does have a SLIGHT hint of mint in it, along with a hint of vanilla.
Agreed!
5) Banana Pudding.
Now, to quote the second half of DivideMyDestiny's post:
In an ideal situation, ALL the flavors would stay. But if Nicoticket has to cut a few, then variety should be the focus here.
I haven't tried BG - I received a sample of Gravity and while I did appreciate the heck outta that sample, it didn't hold a candle to Refresh. Which unfortunately is a one-and-done offering. I can't really give a valid suggestion for the fruity flavors, but I would loved to have tried queen of hearts/watermelon.

From a business point of view, what are your best-sellers ? What are the juices that have the best ROI ?
We are so lucky to have that here! And all the small local places that aren't big enough to do more than sell growlers or pints in their tasting rooms. We have an abundance of so many skilled an ingenious brewers here it's just crazy! This is definitely a mecca of sorts for the beer folks (with the minor pox of Coors messing things up a bit lol) My friend works as a brew master for "the second largest brewery in Golden, CO"
And we load our trailer with some of those good tasting brews to insure that folks everywhere get to taste and enjoy them. *nods*
Sometimes I wish I hadn't quit drinking...so many new flavors in the past 30 years that I will never taste. Oh well! Some can, some can't and some shouldn't. At least I get to taste juices! Not a bad exchange, I do believe.
I have been thinking. In order to keep some of the other flavors alive, I could easily live with GCD and no Doodle. I can always tone down the cinnamon with a git of CLS or CB or Frenilla. See, I iz flexible.
But we MUST save Wakonda. I love the Wakonda, Virus, Katy's Virus and Kriptonite (I know, it will never come back again, but I still think it deserves honorable mention. May it RIP.
). I need the first two in my ADV rotation. I mean NEED!While I am in love with the RBF, I can do without. It is a specialty vape for me. Too sweet for all day. Raz is fabulous and I would like it around forever. Wait, I already voted. I don't need to go on and on again.
Frenilla - versatility, iconic flavor profile, I personaly love that it does not include the ingredients that custard juices do.
Wakonda - complexity. Nuff said.
Radioactive - a counterpoint to virus, adds a choice for tobbacco lovers like me.
Raz Cup- fruit and bakery... Great combo. Adds complexity to the line up.
Overall, frenilla is the most important "negotiable" Flavor that I dont want to loose.
thanks for listening.

I'd like to add Butterscotch Pudding to my list, it is my be all end all favorite for vapor and flavor. Putting t in my LP Reo Grand with the BF Cyclone (with AFC cap) is vaping nirvana for me.
Oh wait, I did add it. Creme Brulee is my other MUST HAVE flavor.

I keep a menthol in rotation always, its the only juice I vape thats not from you. I was a Newport smoker, so it is very comforting right after I eat, and it is a refreshing palate cleanser. Smokeless Image Ice Menthol is the best menthol I have tried, its not mint like too many are, and its not cough medicine like too many are, and has a touch of tobacco in the background.
