They really don’t mess around.

I live about 45 minutes from them and sometimes my order gets sent to Greensboro before it heads back north to me. But it is never longer than 3 days. Super fast!
Where you at TinMan? Im in Asheboro

What are the OOO flavors you like?

I am slowing venturing into OoO flavorings because they are expensive in comparison. They tell me their flavorings do not contain Ethyl Maltol, Cotton Candy, Maltol or Sucralose like other brands. These compounds mute the flavor of the juice for me. I have their Powdered Sugar which I like and can taste. I have their Pie Crust and Vanilla Pudding which I have not used yet. Possibles on my list include Peanut Butter, Lemon Poundcake, Coconut Candy and maybe Eggnog so far. I wanted Cranberry but it is more the actual Cranberry and not similar to Ocean Spray. I need a Pink Lemonade so it is between CAP and OoO however I am leaning toward OoO. LB has a pink lemonade but this brand is on my do not buy list. They have recently purchased Get Suckered, a brand that I have never heard of but they do not contain any of the muting compounds which will be good for me if the flavors are good. I need to see what they have under the Get Suckered name although I am sure there is some overlap with OoO.

    I thought about it for a hot minute, but I was determined to get rum raisin before it sold out yet again. VTA Christmas pudding was gone in the small size, didn’t feel confident enough in it to go for a bigger bottle

    The Xmas pudding is pretty decent by itself but I probably wouldn’t buy a big bottle either.

    In Roxboro. Howdy neighbor! Though I think we are about 200 miles apart. How much snow did you get in that snow storm 3 or 4 weeks back?

    We got 14-15 inches and school was out 4 days. By Friday of that week it was near 60 degrees. If we are lucky it will be the only one of the season, lol. I think y’all get quite a bit more than us, but if it hits it always seems to bring it hard in Roxboro. The local news stations always seem to wind up here the night before winter storms.

    Are you saying that OOO Cranberry is more actual cranberry? So far, the most impressive cranberry I have tried is hard to find Super Concentrated Cranberry. The only place I have found it is at Vapers Tek and one other place that I can't recall at the moment. That is good stuff! Realistic and not like Ocean Spray. I do the occasional order from Vapers Tek for the Molinberry Shape Up Pear so throwing in the SC Cranberry makes sense.

    I haven’t tried it yet. @hittman has, maybe he can describe it. Reviews say sort of brandy, fruit ( like raisins, not citron)and cake?

    I haven't personally tried it but have read a lot of the UK reviewers comments. They say it is brandy heavy, dark, with raisins - like a suet steamed pudding, not fruitcake. Very light on spices.

    Liam Davey's review:
    13 Day steep This has increased in strength, I now get a definite brandy taste, followed by juicy raisins and mixed fruit followed by a dark, dense, sweet cake taste, to me, this tastes like an Xmas pudding, the suet kind not a fruitcake.

    I hope this helps but, of course, it doesn't compare to personal experiences. I won't be trying it because it isn't my kind of vape. If I can't add WS=23, menthol, or some cooling agent, I won't enjoy the vape. That experience has been a good teacher.

    Yes, more like a cranberry. I will wait until I have tasted my Fizzy Lemon Sherbert recipe to be sure I get the VT Fizzy Sherbert taste before buying OoO Cranberry.

    Awww sounds good but too bad for me as it sounds like a one shot flavor which more than likely has sucralose similar to their Lemon Meringue Pie. For me It would be like vaping sweet PG/VG with nic ;)

    My tastebuds are fried right now with my sinus cold. I definitely remember there being a booze taste to the Xmas pudding. I don’t vape any booze flavors so couldn’t tell you if it’s brandy or not. I don’t recall the raisin flavor mentioned. I do remember some sort of spice that I couldn’t quite put my finger on.

    Good morning,mixing folks:) Hubs isn't doing well and I have a real need to keep my mind busy so today I will be working on some recipes. Good mind exercise. Changed up my vapes yesterday with Chocolate Cereal and Strawberry Rhubarb Cheesecake.Happy with those for now.

    Just remembered my new binder I got for recipes and such.I put a few dividers in yesterday.Maybe I'll put some recipes in today. I do really need to do that so I can get rid of my piles of small pad pages.We have some company coming also so I guess I won't have any big problem keeping busy.

    BCF order for Saturday:)

    Good morning mixers. I’m really itching to try some of the mixes that I have steeping but can’t taste much still. I started antibiotics yesterday so hopefully I’ll be able to try some new stuff and actually get some stuff done before my holiday vacation is over.
