Slightly Dissapointed

[randombeta]

I placed a large order a few weeks ago after reading positive reviews and I was excited to try out new flavors.

Bottle #1 = Sweet Cherry
Bottle #2 = Orange Creamsicle
Bottle #3 = Strawberries & Cream
Bottle #4 = Sweet Watermelon
Bottle #5 = Strawberry Cheesecake
Bottle #6 = Sweet Tarts
Bottle #7 = Sweet Strawberry
Bottle #8 = Ginger's Ry4
Bottle #9 = Sweet Tangerine
Bottle #10 = Irish Cream



Juice Strength = 12mg
I was quickly disappointed though, I let them steep for about 2 days and gave it a whirl both by dripping and in a Vivi Nova. I couldn't make out any of the flavors except Irish Cream, they all just had a chemical taste. Could I have gotten a bad batch?

I've never ordered from them before but my guess is that if they mix on order then they just need to steep longer.

Let them steep. I have a 30 ml bottle of Strawberries and Cream that I've been working on for a couple of months. It's always been pleasant, nice tasting, but suddenly, I love it a lot! Give them at least a week or two, and if you still don't love them, put them in the back of a drawer and pull them out later. They'll get better.

Chemical taste...? That one I don't get. I've been ordering from TVR for over a year and I've never got a "chemical taste" off anything - either trying stuff the day it arrived or after several days of steeping. In this case I would take a hard look at your delivery device. Sounds like that silicone or plastic spacer in the ViVi head isn't where it should be located. (Known to produce all sorts of "chemical" or other funky tastes if it's melting...)

Most of the flavors you mention there I have not tried but every bottle I have gotten from TVR has been wonderful, but I do give them at least 2 weeks as I do with all my juices. I will say that I recently found a bottle of Cinnamon Danish Swirl in my cabinet I forgot I had. I always date my juices with the date they were shipped (I assume that is close if not the exact date they were mixed) it was dated for december. After a 3 month steep that was an absolutely AMAZING experience to vape. Let them steep.

Hi randombeta!
As mentioned by your fellow vapers, it is extremely important to let our flavors steep for at least one week in a cool place out of sun light. All juice are made fresh to order. Think of it like a fresh cup of tea, the longer you leave the tea bag set the stronger your tea will be. Juice will drastically change after a week. This information is located several places on the site and an information sheet is attached to all first time customers invoices. Please email me at info@thevaporroom.net if you have any questions or concerns. ~Jess

I got an order in a couple of days ago that included the Sweet Watermelon. I know my advice was to let them steep, but I thought it was fantastic right out of the box. I did get an extra flavor shot, though.

did you dry burn the vivi head before you used it - it's probably not even the juice. Vivi heads have to be dry burned to get the lubricant off the wire before you fill and vape. I forgot to dry burn a new vivi head once and blah!!!!

I have some juices that have steeped for 6 months or more, and they are the BEST! I have learned to buy way in advance to have my steeping juices, also the ones that have already steeped for a few months that I vape on. Sure, some are good right out of the box, but to me, steeping is mandatory! The longer the steep, the better the juice... just like fine wine!

Wow this thread has truly great information for a new user. I bought a couple of flavor and received them 3 days ago..... I really want to try them but now I am just going to date them and let them sit for a couple of weeks.

Thanks for the insight guys!
