I did just order the regular Pumpkin Pie, asking to go light on the spice. Along with the Plum Apple Custard. lol And the Frosted Donut and Nutella. Geesh...I need to stop ordering juice, I need batteries, more.

Ooo, please report back on the Pumpkin Pie, Plum Apple Custard, and the Nutella! :hubba:

There here! I got so excited after smelling them, and a quick tongue taste test, I'm ready to get started.
I chose to use drippers, because it will be easier to switch out flavors. All flavors are 4mg with More VG. Both RDAs are dual coil .5ohm, running at 48w. Ok, on to the good stuff. These are all FOOB! So to be fair, not all components of these flavors are at its full potential.
Pumpkin Pie(lite on the pumpkin spice):

I've stated earlier that, I wanted a true Pumpkin Pie flavor. I didn't want the spice to over-power the goodness, that is pumpkin. This juice delivers 100%:thumbs:. On the inhale I get pumpkin, a little graham cracker, and just a touch of cinnamon and nutmeg. On the exhale, I get the same, but with a sweet creamy finish. I can't wait to see how this flavor develops. As of now, it's an adv.

Nutella:

As expected, this juice is dark. This is really a dripper only juice. A smooth creamy vape. I can definitely taste the hazel nut. Very nice, not chalky at all. The chocolate however, is not quite developed yet. I can taste it trying to come through, but it will need to go in the steep box, for sure. Still, as of now, it's a nice mellow vape.

time to re-wick...lol

That's...that's amazing. I've never really heard any good stories about pumpkin pie vapes before. I'm very happy for you!

I know, right? I'm tickled pink right now. The spice is almost too light. But I know that it get a little stronger with age, making it pure perfection.

Ok, had to cleanse my pallet, for the next round. And now we have...
Frosted Donut:
site description:A deliciously sweet Frosted Donut taste, like you went to the local Donut Palace at 5 when they open and took a bite out of a freshly made donut.

I've been craving donuts lately. Since I don't eat sugar, I hoped that this would satisfy my needs. I was correct. Spot on yeast donut flavor, very lightly glazed. Not overly sweet, like a Crispy Crème. This would make a good base for something you may want too add, like blueberry, strawberry or lemon.

Now I KNOW there's some kind of flavor magic going on at Slim's. The only donut flavor I've tried so far was the former Munchies at ITC, and it was totally insipid. I've been attracted to one or two others (most recently the one on MadTown Vapor's menu), but I haven't wanted it enough to go for it. I'll have to step up to this one. Maybe I'll get Slim to throw in a little shot of his Wild Cherry.

It's worth a try. It's VERY light on the sweetness, so I hope you like it. But the fresh doughyness of the donut, is all there. I work in a bakery, so I think I'm a good judge.

And lastly...
Plum Apple Custard:
site description:A light sweet flavor of Vanilla Custard, Red Apple, Plum, Cinnamon, Sweetener, and Sweet Cream

This has already been reviewed, so I'll just throw in my :2c:. This is definitely a holiday vape. With the cinnamon, the first thing that comes to mind is Spiced Gumdrops. I wonder if this is what a Sugar Plum tastes like?

Although it's destined for the steep box, the hazel nut in the Nutella is so good, I'm having it with coffee tonight. On a side note, has anyone tried Nutella the way the French eat it? Years ago, before Nutella hit the American markets, a girl I knew used to live in France. She introduced me to French bread, with cream cheese and Nutella drizzled on top. Amazing.

Was "lite on the pumpkin spice" what you requested when you ordered it, or was it your first impression when you sniffed/tasted it? Pumpkin lovers need to know! ;)

I typed "go light on the pumpkin spice" in the comments box, when I ordered. Easy as that.

Ah, good to know! I've got a bunch of Slim's that's been steeping, so I need to try them quick, before I place an order for the Pumpkin Pie and the Plum Apple thingy, because I'm hoping that there are some reorders in there. Thanks! :)

BTW, I'm sitting on the Castle Short as it's been steeping and I'm aware that's a 5P clone. What other clones by other juice companies do they have and what are the Slim's names?

I'm sure there are more, just not as obvious as "Castle Short"...lol Man00ver has already mentioned a couple. Unicorn Magic is likened to 5P's Gambit. Snakes Blood has the same profile as Seduce Juice's Snake Oil. I have the Vape Wild version, it's a "must try" flavor. Try searching the site , for some familiar flavor combos. Knowing Slim, I'm sure he has a few more clones floating around. But he is a good mixer in his own right.

I just placed my first order with Slim's...thanks, so much, Man00ver for this thread! I was blown away by the number of choices on Slim's site!

Good to know about the pumpkin pie! I've tried so many pumpkin pie e-liquids, and every one of them was a huge disappointment! Added to the Wish list..

For now, this is what's on the way:
Jack of Apples Cereal
Muddy Snowball - OMG, a Snowball e-liquid!!! :) Be still, my foolish, modwomper heart!!
Pirates Treasure - Rum, Brandy, Whipped Cream, Vanilla, and Cinnamon
Badger Grease - Vanilla Custard, Brown Sugar, Honey, Sugar Cookie, and Toasted Almond
Dr. Whom? - Cola, Cherry, and Toasted Almond
Apple Cheesecake

Man00over, if you do order MTV's Donut Run, get it with a raspberry jelly shot ...so far, this is the third doughnut e-liquid I've tried, and I wasn't over the moon with any of them. MTV's is really similar in flavor to the other two I tried, but with the raspberry jelly shot, I'll give it four outta five. I think it's best on an RDA, even with 1 flavor shot, but that's only because all (so far!) donut flavors are way too bland in my book.

:offtopic: and now, back to our previously scheduled Slim's thread!!

Castle Short(Kentucky Bourbon, Coconut, Toasted Almond, Vanilla, Madagascar Vanilla, Hazelnut, Virginia Fire Cured Tobacco and Brown Sugar) - From the "Signature Mixes." I've never tried the famous Long namesake because I don't like to pay that much. But if it's as good as this clone then it's a good vape. I can taste all of this, though the tobacco is just a shadow at this point. It's delicious, and if it gets any better with steeping I'll have to send Slim extra money. OK, maybe I'll just buy another bottle instead. Then I'll stir it with a charred popsicle stick to make a "reserve" version.

I know your steep times are infamous ;0), but question, Man..how prominent is the tobacco part becoming? This sounds delicious, as long as that tobacco doesn't start getting really intense..

I was curious about this as well. They're not too shy about it, often naming names in the description or the tags (I noticed this when ordering Snake's Blood)...or even just using the same name! Beyond those already named above, so far I've found:

Aqua Berry (Aqua Berry Blast by Sauz)
Beetle Juice (Betelgeuse by Nicoticket)
Bloody French (looks like 5 Pawns' Queenside to me)
Cereal Killa (Cereal Killa by 9 South)
Nectar of the Gods (the description says "it's something close to Mother's Milk," but I'm not sure the flavor profile matches up properly)
Pluto (profile looks pretty similar to the Space Jam namesake)
Thug Juice (Mt. Baker, yeah?)
Unicorn Milk (Cuttwood, yeah?)

And that's just in the Signature Blends section. I'm sure there are many other "inspired" recipes on the site. But I LOVE a well-done knockoff with a nice price. It's like finding money.
