Im not sure how you get from delicious smell to spicy chemical taste, as a juice that is that bad a vape should be detectable with a sniff. Nonetheless, my experience with NT is 180 out from yours. I took them out of the packaging, cap off, shook them, put them into a clearo, let it sit to soak in a bit, then vaped the wonderful flavor. And, the flavor continues to improve with time. Id understand if you didnt like the sweetish, egginess, etc., that custard is, as everything isnt for everyone, but your experience is way outside the norm, something else is wrong if youve tried multiple NT juices and none are right. Tell me that CLS or CB is too eggy, too sweet, too much vanilla, etc, and Ill shrug it off. Tell me that all the NT juices arent right, and I default to operator error. Nothing personal, it is just an assessment of the evidence.
Tell me, I saw your postings about rebuilding coils, were these ones you built or ones provided by Kanger? Ill tell you the coils I got most recently from Kanger led me to try building my own, and Im much happier with them. The Kanger coils seemed to be very airy, like a coldish spicy stream of air on my tongue, though the CB flavor still came through adequately around it. Other questions would be what your ohms and watts are?
I wont rule out a vendor error, NT has, like, 2 people filling thousands of orders over the last few months, getting one bottle wrong wouldnt be unexpected, and I know theyll make it right. But multiple bottles on 2 separate orders is too much lightning in one spot. Were I you, if you find no other cause, send the bottles back, as I know theyd be replaced if defective, and Kent will own up to that and make it right.
