I had ordered the premium coffee shop sampler in 11mg just for the cinnamon roll, since I LOVE the regular cinnamon roll flavor, i couldn't wait until the boxes of just prem cinnamon roll came out. Silly me, I didn't test the one I got before I ordered two boxes of the prem cinnamon roll during the juice sale.

Last night I cracked open my one premium cinnamon roll carto since I knew I had more coming soon. As soon I opened it, I got the "flowery", "rosy" smell that I got from my red hots carto in the candy shop sampler a while back. I shrugged it off and took a nice, big hit. I can't even express how disappointed I was/am. It has the same exact taste of the red hots, which I hated. Ugh, I will try the new ones when they come in, but if they taste like the one I had last night, they are going on the trade thread.

I can't really be mad at V4L as I should've tested the one I got in the coffee shop sampler before ordering two boxes of this flavor. I was just way too excited for cinnamon roll to be released in premium cartos. I hope this is fixed soon. Also, I ordered a 30 of the cinn roll juice, so I will report back on how that is.

I am glad it isn't just me, but I am really really bummed that all of it is bad. :(

Could someone at V4L please comment on whether a 'classic' cinnamon roll is an option in the near future? I loathed the red hots as well due to the flowery taste. I think the cinnamon flavor Kimmy is experiencing is due to the high level of nicotine and/or taste buds that don't react violently to the rose flavor. Did you like the red hots Kimmy?

I guess I will have to limit myself to buy only samplers on new items if the floral issues have followed us to premium and corrupted existing flavors. Oh the pain of early adoption :(

For those of you looking to replicate the old flavor while we are waiting for a new batch, I have had good luck combining loranns cinnamon roll with capella cinnamon danish swirl. 20% flavor 40%PG 40%VG. Adding a dash of gingerbread capella also adds a nice spice that reminds me of my beloved specials. Tastes better in the premium carts of course. I think all juice tastes better in the new carts :)

I am curious WHY they make premiums with the same name as the regular, and they don't taste the same?? CMF is an example...but I had read many posts about the premium being different than the regular. Would you suggest starting all over finding flavors by once again using the sample packs?


But now there is Classic CMF premium!!

Yes, Wader2K, I noticed and I bought some. The CLASSIC premium CMF is very, very good!! Yum.

BUT....shouldn't they have tried for the original flavors when they made the improved premiums? All the money spent on trying flavors, and finding favorites.....if they discontinue the regular caromizers, we would have to start from scratch with the flavors again. :mad:

I bought premium Peach cartomizers....they were quite good. But one of the cartomizers was SO overfilled, it kept leaking and spitting juice in my mouth. I shook it out, and finally managed to vape it. But, wth??

I'm kinda on the fence about the premium carts... the prem capp just doesn't have the same flavor as the original. I think because I fell in love with the 'old' carts, it just might take me awhile to get used to the premium ones.
Oh I hope the premium butterscotch is good! Just waiting for those to be stocked!!

i'm kinda just waiting till the dust settles on... all of this, before i get too interested in premium prefilleds, myself. luckily, however, i am someone who either can't taste or just doesn't mind the 'perfumey' stuffs (proven when patriotjed sent me some [apparently] perfumey orig. red hots... i believe pj re: the perfumeyness but i thought they were delish, heh).

Here is replay from a V4L costumer service " The new premium cinnamon roll cartomizers all came from the same batch. The flavor is slightly different to the regular cinnamon roll, but it is accurate. I'm a big fan of it"

Well bully for the customer service person. The paying customers however disagree with your taste-buds. Don't suppose the rep gave you a name in their reply?

I have had 5 people try the premiums and they all said it was terrible. 3 of the 5 had previously ordered cinnamon roll and were rather upset that it was no longer available.

It is not SLIGHTLY different. It is VASTLY different, not even on the same continent as the old flavor. What once smelled bakery awesome now smells like sewage and tastes like rotting flowers. Even boiling after soaking in alcohol won't get the horrible flavor out of the carts so they are useless for even refilling. I guess I can salvage the rubber tips for reuse in my old style carts.

Oh well, with a response like that V4L clearly wants us to shop elsewhere for our cinnamon roll needs. Too bad considering that was 60%+ of what I regularly ordered.

Very disappointed. This will most certainly impact future purchasing decisions. No more early adoption or proselytizing from me.

That is exactly how we feel about the premium expresso. They were horrid and nothing like the regular ones which we loved. :( :( They taste like my grandma's perfume bottle, imo :( Completely unvapable and we have 5 packs of them

The espresso tasted this way to me too. Perfume with a hint of coffee background...yum. There just HAS to be something wrong here, right? Like some sort of mishap at the factory?

I don't know what to say but that I am sorry you don't like the new batch of Cinnamon Roll. The flavor engineer at our liquid supplier left, and the new one has had some difficulty in getting the flavors right, even working from samples of the old batches. I have been working very VERY hard trying to get them all the same as the old flavors, testing and re-testing samples, rejecting them if they didn't taste the same as the old, no matter how many tries it took. But maybe I blew it on that one. I thought it tasted the same, just stronger. And I definitely didn't taste any floral taste in it. :(
