Reos have that effect on those of us that appreciate them. The five P67's especially simply check all the boxes for me ☑. So did the four 2015 Woodvil's ☑ back when I still used them.
I remember the Custard days when I was lead astray a little from my DIY's a bit in 2014 and bought a few over hyped premade custards to try them out. Grant's, Bryce's, Costar, 24/7, SDV's, NT's, AV's, Money, etc. Almost none of them won me over. In part because at that time I had to buy them with 6mg/ml nic in them when I had not used nic at all in any of my DIY from the very start of my vaping... and in part because the flavor profile of custards was just not my thing. Worst of the worst to me was those from NikoTicket
Anyway, as luck would have it (or maybe because the stars were all aligned with Jupiter in the wee hours here) I just happened to take a very old 60ml bottle of Daft Spunk (from Sleeping Dragon Vapor, Flower Mound TX) I stumbled across in my deep cold storage a little while ago tonight that I haven't touched since to do a test try with to see if it was still viable.
So after it warmed up some I dripped some in a Profile Mesh RDA on a mech DT-DS dual batt squonk mod that reveled that it is still viable, tastes like I remember it is suppose to taste. But it was still a fail to my tastes with this 0.12Ω mesh. Back when I bought it I was using VapourArt GP PAPS Mech tube mods with their SNP Tanks driven with By Leo Sophia flow control RTA's with builds more in the .5Ω to .7Ω range, and with only the very restricted DL hits the Sophia's in carto tanks could deliver (they were for MTL normally).
Regardless the joose has held up just fine, would probably be doable if I dug out one of my GP PAPS Mods or Provari Mods to run either a VapourArt SNP/Sophia or one of their Heron tanks I have on (would have to be a 1.1/1.2Ω build for the Provari though). But that's more than I'm willing to do for a joose that was borderline even way back then (and still would be for my uses).
I have pictures of most of the bottles I tried in that era, but could only find the logo of SDV and not any of the bottles I had taken (besides Daft Spunk I had tried 6 or 7 of their other liquids too that included SpunkBerry, Alboraya, ButterBob, Obscene Jester, Skeleton Key, S.W.G., etc). Alboraya and S.K. came the closest to being doable for me.

Lots of memories... but rattled log enough.
