So i got my 4 bottles of Boba's from the July 4th sale and noticed right away they're almost yellow in color as opposed to the nice reddish brown color. I figured maybe the coloring was just off or something to that effect. So i vaped it and it tastes good and taste similar to Boba's Bounty but it ain't no Bobas Bounty at all. The labels say Boba's. Please help me Porphy :unsure:

Yellow, huh? Interesting. You should submit a help desk ticket through avejuice.com if you haven't already.


Yea like a yellow/golden color. I e-mailed them about the problem and already got a response from them. I know about the steeping process and all that I was just concerned about the color and taste. I love Boba's Bounty and vape it a LOT so when I saw the color I started freakin out lol. I thought my hot mailbox may have ruined it, but I didn't think the color would change from the heat.

Likely it's a steeping issue but the color change is indicative of something. Lets finish this up via the help desk, because I'll need to try a new shipping method to make sure the shipping environment doesn't effect the product.

So in my recent order that I received along with the four bottles of Boba's I also had a bottle of Gorilla Juice. The reason I say this is that I have never tried Gorilla Juice until today and I knew from some of the reviews that it had a hint of banana in it. Well to me when I tried this batch of Boba's I noticed that the flavor was off as I wrote previously. So when I got home from work today I decided to try the Gorilla juice and to me it taste's just like this batch of Boba's and I am trying them side by side. I'm just wondering if the Boba's got mislabeled. I also filed a help ticket today so I'm just waiting to hear back.

I would also like to mention that although I haven't been vaping that long, Boba's by far is my favorite all day juice and now Gorilla Juice is right up there too. The only reason I vape other juices right now is so I don't loose my taste for Boba's, Great stuff, keep up the good work. The one thing I'm sad about right now is that I just ran out of my first bottle of Boba's.

Hiya Dan. Does your order of Boba's have a Golden Brown color or a Reddish Brown color to it? Boba's is my #1 favorite as well that's why I added the "WHY MEEE" to the thread title hahaha. Gorilla Juice is good as well but, Boba's IMHO is the best e-liquid ever :D

Hmm same prob here. Been vaping Bobas and gorilla juice for over a year. The colour is more golden then red that it usually is. Compared it to my last batch of gorilla and the colour is def off. Got it last week and just tried it today. Flavour is def off and I kind of taste coffee which I am not a fan of vaping. Will vape it a bit more tonight and if the flav is still off I will open a ticket tomorrow. I pretty much only vape Bobas, gorilla and flue cured and have for over the last year.

Hi Dmatrix, I had the color issue with my first batch from the 4th of July sale. Porphy helped me out and sent me another batch. This time the color is more correct but the first bottle i tried tasted just like HONEY??!?! I dont recall tasting pure honey in Boba's lol. One of the four bottles taste like 100% Boba's. The one thing i can say about this is it must be the heat....maybe. Although it could be a mislabeling issue. It taste good but its...honey lol. Anyways im using it on a high end device and RBA combo so i dont think its a device issue. Does anyone know if theres a reseller of Boba's here in the NE area? Do they mix it in house? Or does AVE send it to them already mixed?
