I agree. That’s what has stopped me in the past from trying their flavors. They should offer 5ml samples or something cheaper so people could try them without investing a fortune. May as well start the fireplace with a twenty dollar bill. At least then your going to get a guaranteed result.
I have a feeling the liquid itself doesn't cost much of anything. There's a word for charging a premium price for something to make it appear their product is magical or somehow leaps and bounds better than anything else when, in fact, it isn't any better. Not saying that's the case here but I'd be lying if I said it hasn't crossed my mind. Sorta like, "If it sounds too good to be true...". Add there are no reviews for either the Silver or Premium and it just adds to the skepticism.

    I’ve decided that I don’t much care for the ligero and raspberry mix. The second with sweet raspberry was better but still not great for me.

    I put an rba in one of the new crown mini tanks and filled it with black cavendish to try. I am used to trying the nets in a zenith so it’s hard to tell if I like it yet.

    I like the Ligero mixed with fruit but everyone has different tastes. Maybe you should try a different fruit?

    Good Morning mixers. Looks like Bronze is still searching for the Holy Grail of chocolate tobaccos.

    Add Nantahala to your list........I think the area is incredibly amazing.

    Unless you are driver a tractor trailer. I go through there maybe two or three times a year to get to Murphy, NC. Beautiful countryside. It was better ten years ago, before white water rafting turned it into a tourist trap, and rich people start buying up riverfront acreage for tall fences and even bigger houses.

    Anyways, I am down to maybe 15ml of Eclair, and maybe six or so untried samples. Look like I will be mixing this weekend.

    If you make an order you can ask for samples of another flavor or two, if you have something your certain about and then throw an uncertain in to try..

    That's what I did with the chocolate. I bought the coffee and the peach and the apple if I remember correctly and then asked for a chocolate sample.. they threw in a sample size no issues, just add it in the note section.

    I just did a google search to try to find out more info on medicine flower, and River supply has them, but I see no indication of the premium or silver lines. I am more confused now, I was hoping to find some flavor reviews. :?:

    This premium and silver business is new - so I went to the old site to see what I was purchasing - it's all premium now. ..

    I'm liking Shyndo's mango sticky rice. Never having eaten the dessert, I can't say how accurate the flavor is (though, to me, it doesn't taste much like mango, so I'd say it isn't), but it's a very pleasant, almost savory vape. I was a little worried about the coconut, but it sits in the background and only exerts a subtle influence instead of taking over. I will probably mix this recipe again. I haven't said that very often

    I might try some different ones or maybe just get busy on trying the other Nets I have. So far the black cavendish seems a little bland in the crown. I’m getting a little sweetness and a little bit of a sting on the exhale on my tongue.

    I did get 16 10ml bottles and four tanks cleaned and got in a workout. My wife wants me to go to this first Friday antique/junk place with her this afternoon so that might be the last of my vaping escapades for the day.

    Nice find. $24/15ml! :shock:

    I'd hop on it in a minute if I thought it would give me what I want. As it stands now, I will have to wait to order it during my next weak moment and I'm not sure when that will be. Thinking I will wait at least until after my DIY Choco NETs have been sampled. Desperation has a way of creating weak moments.

    That's sad to hear. It's been about 15 years since I've been up there... I've been down those rapids when my wife and I would be the only ones in line.

    I just made 200 ml of strawberry biscuit using nic salt. My first time using nic salt. First times are few and far between at this age. :laugh: Dry burned and rewicked my Zeus x on my solo. A fresh vape is always so good.

    I love my 8 gauge needles and flavor organization. So much better. And this was the second recipe I put in elr.

    :vapor:

    I’ll mix something new soon. I’m thinking peanut butter tobacco.

    Does the 8 gauge needle suck up the VG pretty good?

    I pour it in my syringe instead of sucking it up. It flies through the needle now. Well, with large batches like 200 ml I use a beaker for vg and a syringe for everything else like nic and flavors one on top of the other. A life changer for sure. Mixing is a joy now with my needles and organization.

    So you mix salts at 2mg? I thought the reason to use salts was to mix higher mg? I’ve got very limited exposure to salts. I’m still at 12mg and don’t ever see myself lowering it. It was a big step for me to go down from 20.
