it is the exact same juice as Vapor Talk's Dulcis... shoot me if I am wrong ;-) taste tested them side by side for a month. Couldn't tell the difference.

e-liquid Planent's liquid gold, LiquidXpress's Taboo and Ikenvape's RY4 are also good enough to satisfy what you want.

Esmoke4Life sells Riskee Yuice. One of the customer reviews states that it is the same as the Puresmoker Cash Riskee of yore.

Riskee Yuice - $6.99 : Esmoke4life.com, The very finest in personal vaporizers

I just received my order of a 15ml bottle of this juice. I also got 20mls of Vapor Talk's Dulcis, along with about 10 other RY4s and RY4-variants I hadn't tried before to go with the 10-or-so I already have. The new batch are part of my research preparation for a big review "The Great RY4 Shoot-Out," in which I will attempt to compare and contrast more than 20 different RY4 formulations. I haven't even received all the new ones yet, but I'm already up to my ears in RY4s (along with about five of my own DIY versions), so it may take me awhile to design the testing and get the review organized.

So far, I haven't compared Riskee, Dulcis, and IKV RY4 Gold side-by-side-by-side, but lasttango's taste buds (and comments) are usually spot-on.

Bill, I think LT's tastebuds are a lil' off!IMO I broke down and went for the Dulcis based on LT's comparison! It is not even close to Riskee... Taste more like tobacco with a slight burnt caramel with coffee (which I cant stand in my liquids) . The Dulcis color is definitely lighter as I compared next to my tiny bit of Riskee I have left. Riskee has a noticable Cotton Candy taste that is most definitely not in the Dulcis.

Dulcis is probably not that bad if you like coffee, but if you are in hopes of it being the same as Riskee you will be disappointed.:facepalm:

Stillsmok,

I ordered both the Esmoke4Life Riskee Yuice and the Vapor Talk Dulcis and have just done a side-by-side comparison, dripping each in two Madvapes VV boxes at 4.5 volts with two identical and cleaned 510 atties at 2.5 ohms.

I'm not sure the Riskee I got is the same juice as yours, but here's what I get:

Color: Riskee is a pale gold; Dulcis is an even paler pink.
Impact: Good throat hit with both juices.
Flavor: Riskee is a little sweeter, but not so much that I could say cotton candy as an element; Dulcis has something else going on. I can't pinpoint either caramel or coffee as actual or distinct flavors. Neither had a tobacco base that I could recognize as a signature tobacco. Both are a little on the mysterious side to me.

While the two juices I just vaped are not as far apart as your experience, they are not the same. Similar but different. Definitely separate from all the sweeter and darker dessert-like RY4s.

Caveat: The Riskee and Dulcis I have are new, with only a couple days to steep, so the flavors may not have developed yet. That may be why neither "called out my name," so to speak. But then, even the nuttier Ikenvape RY4 Gold didn't either, at least not yet.

Hey Bill,
The small amount of Riskee I have left is definately the ORIGINAL Puresmoker Riskee. I highly doubt that Esmoke4life has the lost formula that all trhe major vendors (including PS and Janty; I have communicated with both owners too) are searching for. Most people agree that The Original PS Riskee definitely had hints of cotton candy. If you never got a chance to try the Original Riskee, then I seriously doubt that you will ever get the pleasure to taste what a delight it actually was, which is a shame. :(

The Dulcis is strange! Sometimes I vape it and it's OK, then I try it in a few days and I get something intolerable. I actually did not start noticing the coffee until after a week or so. It's definitely there. You can smell it if you have a good sense of smell. I only smoked for about 3 years, so I was fortunate enough to my keen sense of smell. :)

Keep me updated on your Riskee thoughts!! I'd like to know how you like it... Tks
