RY4 Formula Changed?

[SCTony]

Hello, have you changed the formula for your RY4? I received a 30ml bottle today and it is a different color (orange, not golden) a different smell, and a completely different taste which does not appeal to me. The first bottle I ordered about a month ago was delicious. Just wondering what happened. Thank you.

What strength is it? I've noticed between 12mg/18mg/24mg the color is a little different after steeping and the flavor between the three while very similar, does have a extremely subtle difference.

It's 18mg, same as previously. New bottle is 30ml, first bottle was 20ml.

Email Isaac and let him know. Sounds like a mislabled bottle to be honest.

I did let him know via email. It tastes very much like a bottle of Hangsen RY4 I had which turned me off from RY4s for a long time. Only the Hangsen is a golden color, not orange.

Sounds like you might of gotten RY4 this time by mistake and RY4 Gold last time.

I made sure to order the same flavor- yes, it was supposed to be RY4 Gold. I just checked and both orders were for RY4 Gold. The new bottle label says RY4 only- no Gold mentioned on the label.

He's got a new guy working and you know how that goes. Just email him and he'll fix you up. It should say RY4 Gold on the label.
Bad picture I know.

Thanks 5Card- that may be just what happened. I sent them an e-mail and hopefully they will reply.

He will reply but I know he's been busy and sometimes it takes a couple but he will reply.

I also ordered a RY4 gold VG and receive a bottle just like the one on the left on this picture (seems yellow to me). Do i have the famous Iken RY4 taste or something else (that's my first order)?

None of my RY4 says "Gold" on it, and I still have bottles going back to the very first batch when the factory mislabeled them as DK-Tab lol. But we'll get Isaac to chime in.

I recently got some also and it looks like the one on the left. 18mg VG

I have 2 bottles labelled RY4 - one PG and one VG... I wonder if that's why they don't seem quite as good as normal

They have the same color? The one of the left in the picture or the one on the right?

That's just because of the camera angle and because one photo was resized too. If you look at the labels the one is washed out looking but it isn't really. That's what you get from a cheap camera.
The one started from this photo here.

You'd think the gold color juice would be the Gold....sorry, just a hair brained idea.

It's actually darker. I guess I could take a good picture without the flash so you can see the color. I was just showing the two different labels.

Interesting.... My bottle of ry4 gold doesn't actually say gold on the label. I just checked the website, and only saw RY4 Gold. Is there a non-gold ry4 available from Iken?

 

[5cardstud]

I don't see any RY4 listed any more so I believe it is either RY4 Gold now or he's out.
