This is the first in a series of threads that allow for people to sound of about juices that, for whatever reason, manage to be divisive. Not a whole lot of grey area with these flavors (though there may be some), people generally like/love them or dislike/hate them. Where do you stand? Sound off!

I will try and keep these to more established vendors/juices that a good number of people may have tried.

In the first post I will link to the juice, post the vendor's description, and the smallest available size + price in case others would like to try it and sound off about it.

First up: 555 Exotic from Backwoods Brew

Vendor Description: This is the gourmet version of its familiar cousin. It is smooth with many different nutty undertones previously unique to the blend. This is not your father's 555!

smallest size/price -- 10 mL @ $6.50

(Disclaimer - say whatever you feel, be as vocal as you like, but don't call others out for having different opinions. Keep the thread to the topic of 555 Exotic from Backwoods Brew. This thread is for people who have tried the juice.)

Sound off! Big ups to 555E from me. Stood out the most from the handful of BWB baccos I tried, most I didn't like but this I'd order again. It's been a long time since I had it, but I remember liking it immediately and found it unique. I may be a fuddy-duddy, but this nutty was my buddy; neither cruddy nor muddy just smooth like puddy.

I think it looks and taste like sweat off a rotting corpse.

Sound off!

555 Exotic, to me, is one of Don's best tobaccos. Now, I am not saying that it tastes like tobacco per se, but since it is in the tobacco section, that's what it is. I think this is one of the most unique juices I've had and it is an absolute pleasure to vape.

555e has a citrus-y note and unlike other 555s, I am not getting "peanut" per se, but a nuttiness much in the way that green tea has nuttiness. As a matter of fact, 555e tastes like a perfectly, gently steeped green tea with a touch of honey anchored by a subtle, very subtle tobacco. This is some delicately flavored, subtly charged, perfect for the spring, juice!

555 Exotic is a grrreat juice!

First....I love 555's.
I shall call it the Philistine vape as I am from proper peasant stock.
BWB 555Exotic is a lovely flavor (citrusy as some say) and it is a large part of my rotation.
My rotation consists mainly of Spring Vapor's Black Label 555 of which I have to order two bottles at a time and Smokeless Image 555 as my first and the one I keep in my pocket while at work.
The 555Exotic is a nice counterpunch to these two flavors.
Strangely enough, I don't care for BWB's regular 555.

Lemon Pledge, no nutty at all

That's exactly what it tasted like to me. I let it steep for a while, and it still tasted like that. So I let it steep for several months, but no joy. Still lemon pledge.

Too bad. I love 555's and I know BWB makes quality juices. Just further proof of how our tastes differ.

Final bump and then on to the next one. Hopefully I can find a flavor that elicits more responses. Man, within the past year and a half there has been a true paradigm shift in liquid consumption.

Yep. A couple years ago the response to this thread would have been HUGE. Couldn't swing a cat around here without hitting a BWB discussion.

I know, right? Seems like all that remains from that time is that freakin' Boba's Bounty! :-x ( I think I just figured out my next sound off. LOL)
