So I have been very excited to try this juice...... I mean...... Everybody on here talks about it like it's the greatest thing since sliced bread.

I was finally able to order some.... And I was excited. I stalked the USPS site..... Anxiously watching the tracking activity. Imagine my delight when it finally showed up in my mailbox.

I couldn't wait.... It smelled delicious. I eagerly loaded up a tank. I fully expected the heavens to open up, and to hear the harps of angels playing as I took my first puff.

Disappointment..... To me it tasted like chemicals with a hint of vanilla. I expected creamy, vanilla delight.... But no such thing.

I will give it time to steep and try it again.... But honestly I don't see how everyone raves about this stuff.

Btw..... My experience with alice in vapeland was the same..... So much anticipation..... Only to be let down.

I got my first sample of Custard's Last Stand just this past Saturday. Mine is currently in the steeping stage but I do like it quite a bit. It's not blowing me away but it's pretty darn good. I'm very optimistic that it will get even better but I'll have to wait and see. I'm hoping that the Vanilla flavor gets a little richer.

I also got some Creme Brulee with the same order and so far I like it even better. That caramel kick is right up my alley. Also currently in the steeping stage. I'm thinking that this one has excellent potential. Hope I'm right.

Generally speaking, I'm content with both of them the way they are right now. If they get better I'll probably be dancin' in the streets.

Taste really is subjective. Not everyone is going to have the same experience due to different taste buds, etc.

In my own personal experience, I have tried many top shelf e liquids that were rated very high only to be disappointed.

In addition to that, I have discovered that although a juice has gotten high ratings in its debut, frequently what happens is the juice morphs into something else down the line either due to its original flavorings being taken off the market or changed, or because the vendor changes the recipe or he decides to use less flavoring to maximize profits, etc. A juice may start off being heaven's nectar in a bottle but later become something average at best. I have personally had this experience a couple of times during the past year. I've left a couple vendors now because I saw them watering down their e liquids to make more $.

Not sure if this post was geared towards Nicoticket but all I can say my orders every time have been great. I've noticed no change in juices in the past 4ish months I have been ordering.

I ordered this and the creme brulee'. I've had them about 5 days. Tried them both once, REALLY hoping the steeping helps. The CB tastes like pancake syrup so far. I can tell I'll probably like the CLS better.

It'll get better, it really will. I found, for me at least, CLS get better at around the 2-3 week mark. Not sure about CB, I just ordered it last night but shouldn't be much different as its pretty much CLS with caramel.

It's starting to beat out Gorilla Juice as my all day.
