The question is simple: is Boba's Bounty worth the consistent hype, or is the hype fueling itself with a juice that is average or below average? Where do you stand? Sound Off!

Boba's Bounty from Alien Vision
http://www.avejuice.com/BobasBounty

Smallest sample size + price is 6 mL for $4.50

I want unadulterated opinions on the juice. If you hate it/think it's garbage and not worth the hype, say it! If this is greatest juice ever/worth every bit of the hype, say it! Think its meh? Say it!

(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 Boba's Bounty made byAlien Vision.)

This thread is for people who have tried the juice, please.

I have tried BB's quite awhile back and I was hooked for quite awhile, loved it! Then I sort of burned out on it but I like lots of flavors so no surprise I wanted others. I just ordered the BB clone so looking fwd to trying it and seeing if it is close to BB. I think BB is a great juice BTW. bnrk

I think it is decent, but not worth the hype. Was this one of your first flavors? I think that Boba's is frequently one of the first flavors people hear about being a must-try, so it plays on the psyche (IMO). I will always keep a 3 mL of Boba's Bounty, but that is more due to the likelihood that I will never finish the 3 mL I have. LOL

p.s. I look forward (as I am sure others will) to reading your thoughts on the clone.

tried it, liked it.
the first bottle i got : tried it i thought it was a very very "filling" vape, a few puffs and i felt full.
then about a day later i thought it was great and could not put it down.

the second bottle i got, the crazy flavors werent there, they were just missing and so i put it away. still bring it out every once in a while to see if it gets better. nothing yet.
most of the people i know cant stand bobas.

if you get a good batch, it will definetly still be an acquired taste. there are many flavors, like cookie like, and small hints of tobacco, maybe raisins.... its really hard to get. my first batch, was good, very good it was like liquid spice melange from the dune books, always a changing flavor, every hit was different.

but in my experience depends on the batch, so i'd rather vape something a little more consistent like flue cured, or fruity flavors like love potion, or the earl grey from rawr.

also, i was not satisfied with the fruity flavors from ave, tried the berries both blue and mountain. oh but hype was good, just had to let it sit for quite a while.

when you get it you'll be saying to yourself people made it sound a lot better than what your tasting but I S!*t you not you will get hooked and finally realize what all the hype is about. bobas and gorilla juice is all I smoke everything I get for my rebuildables revolves around bobas and gorilla anywhere from the mesh I get to the right wire to make it taste and vape the best. i cant imagine myself switching from it anytime soon even thinking of smoking anything fruity kind of gives me a headache (its a psychological problem) lol. the vape and taste is super smooth with a TH that is unexpected from 100% VG but now im a gorilla juice kind of guy I love bobas but gorilla juice is the bobas bounty with a hint of banana that makes me want to eat the vapor lol

Taste is always subjective but all my friends love it say its the best flavor they have tried and I didnt even explain to them that this flavor is such a hype in the vaping community before they tried it.

Yes it was an early juice i tried when I first starting trying juices. I had others but just couldn't get enough of BB at the time. I haven't vaped any lately tho and I think I have some stashed, just didn't get back to it :) It may not even be in date anymore LOL bnrk

Maybe I should've asked was Boba's one of your first juices in the opening post. I know Pbusardo hyped it up sooooo much that I just had to try it. I remember getting it and thinking it was good, but I was really confused as to it's place as the king of vapes. That it ain't. But, I can appreciate others thinking it is.

Oh yeahh lol got over 300 mls of each lol last batch I got a note from ave saying "you rock" and "you sure this is enough?" lol

DAMN! I guess all of those that missed out know who to be mad at. I can't imagine one of the hundreds of flavors I've had tasting that dadgum good. LOL

im sure that everyone has their favorite, bobas and gorilla juice happens to be mine. im sure that there is a juice out there that i will like a lot more and would prefer that as my all day vape I just havent tried it yet but till the day I move on to the next juice ill just be vaping on my bobas :)

Good way of looking at it! Some people are still looking for anything they can vape for extended periods. You are at least ahead of many in that regard. Hell, at least when you are burnt out on Boba's, there'll be someone there to buy it off of you.

I think that is true. For me I still love a good tobacco and then come fruits, I am not so much of a pastry vapor even tho I went thru my Ms Bakery phase as well, I sort of got over it LOL bnrk

This may be a premature observation, but it seems to me to be that Boba's is a more of an introductory juice that for some may remain great, but for a lot of others falls into obscurity. IMO there is better out there that still isn't near the best.

Sound off! Boba's Bounty worth the hype? I dunno, but will say that I think it's earned it. There's a reason it's near the top of so many list, it's very universally appealing. Most people that try it like it, and that's very rare for an ejuice. There's one thing going against it's hype, people are expecting something spectacular. Popular doesn't equal spectacular, popular equals wide appeal. AVE created a flavor that has arguably the most universal appeal of any other juice. For most people, just like any other juice, chances are you won't love it (unless loving a flavor is your rule rather than exception), but a good chance of liking it.

Just like any juice that's well made, some will love it. I do, quite a bit. For a flavor that has wide appeal, it's also pretty unique. Know what else has wide appeal? Graham Crackers (fun Boba's pot-shot). It was an instant hit for me, and during the course of the first bottle I had cravings for that Boba flavor. A few bottles later I still vape it, a rarity for me.

I don't vape it often anymore, I have a many months old bottle that is still fairly full, but I still enjoy it when I vape it. There's almost a sense of security having a bottle of it around, when nothing else is working I have faith that I can grab the BB and be happy. It's my absolutely favorite juice that's sold as tobacco but has zero tobacco flavor :p

I think that is the best assessment of the juice I have ever read. Well stated, good sir.
