Love the reviews RedHen...I am totally in love with the Dark Turkish Coffee. For those of us who are PG sensitive theres not alot of options out there. I'm also sensitive to alcohol and some sweetners, makes me wheeze. I ordered a sampler and couldn't put the turkish coffee down. It's totally addictive and best of all...no wheezing!...:thumb:

Lie it too a lot, and its great for mixing with other juices!

Organic Not So Virgin Eggnog 12mg, 100% VG
(sampled in a Boge Standard Resistance carto on a joyetech Ego C-twist)

This juice is a clear medium amber-brown.

I'm kind of like.... "meh" with this flavor. I usually have a pretty strong opinion but this one is just.... meh. It's not like a glass of eggnog. Through the entire sampler bottle I got one puff where I went "oh, there's the eggnog!" and as soon as it was there it was gone again. It's not super strong in the flavor department, more on the subtle side... it's slightly vanilla-y and slightly nutmeggy but I'm not finding the Not So Virgin part. Not bad, but not great either. Throat hit 4/10, preferred voltage 4.2.

Organic Lemon Chiffon 12mg, 100% VG
(sampled in a Boge Standard Resistance carto on a Joyetech Ego C-twist)

This juice is a clear paleish amber-brown.

It's lemon. If you're looking for a yummy lemon flavor, you'll like this. You don't get the tartness of the lemon, just the slight little zing of lemon zest or lemon essence and just the right amount of sweetness. I personally preferred the Lemon Rosewater because it had more complexity but this flavor is yummy too. Preferred voltage 4.2... throat hit is very mild. 2-3/10.

Organic Banana Nut Muffin 12mg, 100% VG
(sampled in a Boge Standard Resistance carto on a Joyetech Ego C-twist)

This juice is a super clear pale pale amber.

This is not radically different than any of the other banana flavors I have tried. It definitely gives you what it advertises- warm delicious banana bread straight from the oven. The banana flavor is complimented with subtle notes of nutmeg and cinnamon. I have become quite banana-tolerant but this is not one of my favorite vapes. Throat hit seemed to get higher as the bottle emptied for some reason. I would say it started out as maybe a 4-5/10 and by the bottom of the bottle (carto getting gunked?) it was definitely a TEN out of ten. Preferred voltage is 4.0.

Organic White Chocolate Raspberry Souffle 12mg, 100% VG
(sampled in a Boge Standard Resistance carto on a Joyetech Ego C-twist)

This juice is a clear medium brown with a hint-o-pink.

This juice is DECADENT. I am not a fan of white chocolate at all, so I have been putting this one off. Honestly, I think it could use a re-naming. I do not get the nasty cloying sweetness of white chocolate whatsoever. Maybe it is my imagination, but I definitely get cocoa notes of a true chocolate, not the cocoa butter disgustingness of white chocolate. The raspberry flavor is slightly tart and amazingly rich. This liquid actually reminds me SPOT ON of a Godiva dark chocolate raspberry truffle. Honestly, this flavor might be a bit too rich for my taste, but it is definitely one I do not regret trying. This is the perfect after-dinner vape if you are trying to avoid desserts. :) Throat hit 4/10, preferred voltage 4.0.

Organic Shell Shocked 12mg, 100% VG
(sampled in a Boge Standard Resistance carto on a Joyetech Ego C-twist)

This juice is almost perfectly clear with the slightest hint of brown.

OH NUTS! I am down to the last dropper in my sampler bottle and I kind of want to cry. :( I did not expect to fall in love with this flavor, but it was love at first vape. My favorite drink is a Vodka Gimlet (with filberts!) and this is *THE PERFECT* compliment to a Friday night cocktail. My bf and I pounded gimlets and enjoyed the heck out of Shell Shocked last weekend. It is nutty and subtly sweet. I would love to try this with the Dark Roast Turkish Coffee or the Death By Chocolate (nutella!). Throat hit is 3-4/10, preferred voltage is 4.2.

This is definitely in my top 5 flavors and I will be ordering it again soon, if not immediately.

My favorite drink, born of my love of Stoli and kamikazes back in the day. Always had Stoli around but never the stuff to make kamikazes or gimlets, but discovered that the tree in our back yard, once fertilized and pruned, produced limes. So, the gimlets, the kamikazes gave way to Stoli and just fresh lime juice. Now it's asked for by everyone that comes by, and is about the only cocktail I will drink these days, if any at all. Everyone agrees with leaving out the sweeter stuff once they try fresh lime by itself.

Not to derail your thread, but it is not often I see someone mention Vodka Gimlets! I have always suggested them when friends could not decide what to drink, instead of a rum and coke or something. But pounding them? Oooooo. . .I don't know lol

Excellent reviews as always, Red! I don't care for the Shell Shocked by itself, but I AM going to mix it with some Double Espresso (which you do NOT want to try, it's awful, horrible, do NOT buy it EVER).

I ordered mine so you can't have them all kitty! I must have beat the rush 'cause they're already shipped!!

I got some and it's not great, as in I can't actually taste coffee at all, just a sort of non-descript strength, a bit like cardboard or something. Is this one that needs a lot of steeping? I really want to like it, been looking for a good, strong coffee flavour for ages but I'm not sure whether to order a full bottle in advance of my needing it and leave it for a while.

thm3, you might want to give it some time, but it is quite surprising to hear the Dark Turkish Roast lacking in flavor for you, as it's one of our strongest flavors (IMO). It is good to order in the smallest size available to be sure it's something that you will like. Again, I'd give it a little time to mature, and if it still isn't tasting good to you, you might want to try something else in the coffee category, like the Double Espresso, or go in another flavor direction altogether. Ain't nothing wrong with not liking a certain flavor, and we've certainly all had the experience of high hopes for a certain flavor, only to be disappointed. The wild variance in vapers' tastes is almost the ONLY constant in vaping! :)

Organic Singin' The Blues 12mg, 100% VG
(sampled in a Boge Standard Resistance carto on a Joyetech Ego C-twist)

This juice is perfectly perfectly clear and nice and thin. It is one of the few juices that settles into a carto really well.

This flavor is an absolute spot-on natural essence of blueberry flavor. It is not very sweet at all, so if you enjoy fruity flavors but not the candy-sweet ones, this is a perfect choice. It is not one of my favorites but my bf couldn't get over how amazingly natural the blueberry flavor tasted. Perfect summer day vape. :) Throat hit is on the low side- 3/10. Preferred voltage is 4.4 volts.

Organic Orange Creamsicle 12mg, 100% VG
(sampled in a Boge Standard Resistance carto on a Joyetech Ego C-twist)

This juice is a medium-dark orangy-brown.

The good news is.... it tastes exactly like an orange creamsicle. The bad news is... it tastes exactly like an orange creamsicle. I am not really a fan of orange creamsicles. The orange flavor is definitely dominant to the cream (especially on the inhale), but it has an absolute creaminess on the exhale. The orange flavor is very, very sweet and .... spunky? I don't know how else to describe it. The orange is quite delightful, but the sweetness of this vape wears out it's welcome pretty quickly. Honestly, I couldn't wait to get to the end of the bottle so I could move on. It *definitely* wasn't gross, just not my kind of thing. If you like orange+cream you will be in heaven with this vape. Throat hit is considerably higher than other fruit/citrus flavors I've tried.... I would give it a 5-6/10. Preferred voltage is 4.2.

Somehow my voltage preferences have gotten way higher over the last week....... I don't know if it has been the flavors I was trying or what?!

Organic Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough 12mg, 100% VG
(sampled in a Boge Standard Resistance carto on a Joyetech Ego C-twist)

This juice is a medium-dark clear brown.

This is kind of an odd one. The first few puffs were dominantly chocolate with a hint of vanilla... but after a while I started tasting a definite buttery flavor and then soon after an odd savory brown butter, and then right after that burnt cookies. I thought maybe I was running it too hot so I ditched the first carto and reloaded another and turned it down to 3.8 and.... same thing happened. This is a "no" in my book, sorry. :(

Unfortunately, I have to agree with RedHen on the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough. I finally tried it recently after allowing steepage as per kitty protocol, but nope, it's not there for me either. I could not taste any element of CCCD, so I too abandoned it and chalked it up to my taste buds just don't get it.

I also tried the Orange Creamsicle and it's not there for me either (sorry, Swer! Swer? where are you?). Contrary to the sweetness our RedHen describes, my buds perceived more of an orange peel flavor, a bit bitter, and could not taste any creamsicle flavor. Again, I blame my taste buds.

So I jsut found out about a website eliquidsamples.com that works with a couple vendors (Virgin vapors being one of them) that charges 1.66 for 1 ml sample size (and its approved by vendors) so now I have 34 flavors in my checkout and trying to narrow them down after readin all of the reviews. Can you give me your opinion on what you would choose of the following:
Bluberry Bliss or Singing the Blues?
Kona Coffee Milkshake or Caramel Kona Milkshake or Kona Velvet Milkshake?
Shell Shocked or Swiss Almond?
At least I can knock out 4 with this feedback

Hi Angiebubs,
My two cents worth here is that 1 ml isn't really enough to tell if you like a flavour or not. Maybe with some flavours it would be but it's also pretty expensive buying them that way. Why don't you try a sampler pack instead? Everyone's tastes are different so you just have to dive in and start finding your own favourites. :)

I bought a sampler and 4 sm bottles but now want more lol and after thinking it through decided against the 1 ml. Ordered lrg bottle of celestial honeydew ref bottle of plum crazy and another sampler with buttercream mint...kcm..and blueberry I think lol. Then found out tonight my brother that just started vaping, bought plum crazy and pineapple party. He doesn't care for plum so if I like it I may have 2 bottles. Think next order will be white guava and Jasmine. Really like bed of roses too.
