So THAT'S what an ADV tastes like...

Grants Vanilla Custard.

After a year of vaping and countless orders placed through various vendors, I have finally found "the one" I have not been able to put it down and I thought I'd share so others can give it a try. Never in my year of vaping would I have thought my ADV would be a dessert flavor, I've always only been interested in fruity vapes. I don't know what it is about it, probably the creaminess and the vanilla notes that keep me coming back. It's sweet but not sickly sweet, just right.

I highly recommend it. I've just placed another order for 100ml's because I refuse to run out of this stuff. Pricing is reasonable and it ships here fairly quick considering it comes from the UK.

Finally an ADV. :vapor:

Good to hear you've found something you "really" like. I'm almost afraid to try Grants in case I like it too much.
I've been DIYing different vanillas for a year now and vanilla is all I vape.
However I have been known to add a pinch of banana, peach or Cinnamon on occasion.

Just recently began thinking just a touch of a licorice flavour might bring the vanilla notes out more.
The weather is getting nicer now so a road trip on the bike to hit Canvape at the 400 mkt. is in my near future
to stock up on my dwindling supplies.(and some licorice);)

Grant will tell you that this juice needs steeping and he's absolutely correct. I swear the longer it sits the better it gets. At first it was good, but as I let it steep for another 7 days it was a noticeable difference. So steeping is definitely crucial in experiencing it's full potential.. mine keeps getting better 3 weeks later.

As for pricing, it's not great but it's not horrible. For 100mls it costs $78 Canadian, and it arrives in about 8 business days. If you don't like it, there are plenty of people that will snatch it up from you (hint, hint)

The Vanillas it seems require a "lot" of steeping.
I find at least a month and longer is even better.
It makes it difficult when comparing a newer batch to
a previous round of DIY cause the new mix is never as mature
flavour wise.

It pays to make largish mixes so I can better judge the effects of time
on the flavour. It does seem though that the older the better.

I'm sure the GVC would be at it's best after at least a couple of months.

Todd is constantly vaping it in his videos and I've tempted a few times to order it as it does sound tasty.

Jugheads does a Vanilla Custard as well and I got some in my order yesterday. I'm going to let it steep at least two weeks along with some speed steeping. Maybe you should order a 10ml bottle and see if its close to the same, cause if it is it will be a ton cheaper from Jugheads

I just got my second order of 100mls from Grant's today, took about 9 business days.

I'm also waiting on some Vader Pudding from MLV as well, if it tastes anything like Grant's then I'll stick to that, just less hassle/worries. Grant is good with how he labels the bottle however, just a plain white label that says "Custard Flavoring"

That's awesome, super customs win. Where do you buy this stuff again ?

www.grantsvanillacustard.com

Definitely worth a try, if you like vanilla, custard, and a slight caramel flavor, just skip to the 50 or 100ml bottle! I am so glad I got 50mls on my first order, it's heavenly stuff haha
