I know I am in the minority, in fact, I may be the only person on ECF who will never purchase juice again there.

I ordered a juice that sounded like it should taste ok but I cant even give it away. Along with my order I put in the comments section to please be sure the flavor combos I requested would mix properly, as well as the PG/VG ratio. I was never contacted so assumed I chose correctly. Perhaps the alcohol content in the butter rum was the deal breaker, but I have 4 ounces of doubler I will pitch and am trying my best to put 1 drop at a time of the nic juice in carts then add juices from elsewhere to get more vapor and change the taste. I was not surprised when I started seeing other people wanting to trade juices they did not care for. I simply cannot risk losing more money. The site clearly states no refunds, which is SOP for juice suppliers.

Shipping time was fine; I know they were busy. My advice is to choose simple flavors, that way you can save money with the doublers, which are so nicely priced. Taste is subjective you might love this stuff. I dont drink liquor, if you love the zing of alcohol you will definitely get it in the TV juices that add it as an ingredient.

I only ordered from him once (so far) and my result was mixed. The juice itself is REALLY good. I ordered two bottles one spiced rum one a mix of my own. The spiced rum is so good- it's become my fall back vape. There was some kind of problem with my mix and I ended up with a bottle of caramel. The caramel is nice, not what I ordered but I'm keeping it, instead of going through any kind of hassle. I won't be ordering juisce again for a while- as I'm set up with stuff from V4L (I love them too) and my two juice bottles for a good while. I plan on trying ms. T's next just because her juices look sooo delisious. But I do plan on trying TV again.

I love Tasty Vapor. I've ordered e-juice from about 10 different (very well known) suppliers and none of them even compare to Tasty Vapor. The flavors are so strong and the price is amazing. You can order a 48mg 30ml bottle for 15 bucks then also order a "Doubler" that comes in a 4oz (4oz!!) bottle that has no nic. You can then use the doubler to cut the 48mg bottle and thus you get ALOT of juice for 30 bucks. Just my opinion..

Like you said, Taste is very subjective, There is no way of knowing what you might exactly like or love, It is trial and error Im afraid.

One thing I will say, the juice vendors can't know what our tastes are when we don't even know. Some things you "think" you might like usually end up being something you don't want to vape.

I will definitely be ordering more from TV, everything I've gotten from them has been spot on.

Bellasin, I'm curious as to what flavor combo you ordered? It sounds like you ordered a custom mix. But I don't think I'm it's really fair to ask someone else if the flavors you choose will taste good together. I haven't tasted any alcohol or even that zing you picked up on in their liquids, but like Doots said, taste is so subjective, so that's just a difference in how we perceive the flavors.

V4lis, I posted a review of Tasty Vapor the other day - here's the link...hope it helps! :D

http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/e-liquid-reviews/62796-tasty-vapor-bananas-foster-anyone.html

Since I wrote that review, I have placed a 2nd order and I had a shipping confirmation w/in 24 hours. I expect that order to arrive today or tomorrow.

I also bought several different TV flavors in the classifieds and I am in love with the Atomic Fireball - IMHO it's a perfect reproduction of red hots candy. I also have several others that I haven't tried yet since I've been too busy w/the AFB . :p

I have tried a lot of different vendors - V4L cartomizers included - and I have found that, at least for me, TV to be the strongest, most true flavor yet.

I have no plans to order from TV again. My brother loves the stuff and I'm going to try out some of the flavors he's got when I see him next week.

The stuff that I ordered is nasty.

Rootbeer Float: Aside from not tasting a drn thing like rootbeer or float (floater comes to mind), there's globs of something floating around in there. Not the float I was expecting. I contacted Geoff and and while he wasn't sure what that was, he assured me it was safe and I probably just needed to shake it up more. I've tried to choke down a ml or two of this stuff. I've tried mixing with a little vg.. I really don't know what to do with it. I can't make this taste like it's supposed to and I can't stop it from gunking up atomizers to the point they have to be soaked in everclear to get them functioning again.

Cafe Mocha: The taste is initially a strong coffee candy sort of flavor (not to my liking) and maybe a hint of chocolate that pretty quickly gives way to an overpowering chemical taste. This stuff is very thin and pretty much just runs down and out the battery side of the atomizer. I have to drip 1 drop at a time and try to get through it (and the chemical taste) pretty quickly or it just runs out onto my fingers. I may try adding some straight VG to thicken it up someday but I don't think there's anything I can do about that chemical taste.

I can't imagine this is the norm and I'd happily buy ~5ml samplers from them to find something I do like.. But I'll never buy another 30ml mystery bottle from TV again.

UD.

I ordered the Cafe Mocha from TV and didn't care much for it. It would seem I don't like my coffee as strong as I thought.. lol.. I could only manage to vape it for a few minutes (it's destined to be traded or sold in the very near future). Mine is 10% VG and didn't run through my atty. Even though I'm not happy with my flavor choice, I WILL order from TV again. I'm dying to try the atomic fireball and his tobacco juices. I've heard nothing but great things about those two specifically.

Geoff stated on the site that we should contact him to make sure the mixes we pick will go well together. Yes I agree we cannot expect someone else to know what tastes good to each individual, but I expect a juicemaster to know the subtle nuances of these flavors well enough to at least be confident about which flavors will compliment one another. I also explained in my comments to him the sort of taste I was trying to achieve in a juice. There was very little vapor produced in the juice I received. Here is the mix I ordered:

48mg 90%PG/10%VG
Butter Rum
Tobacco
Caramel

Doubler all PG
Butter Rum
Caramel
Butter Cream

The most flavorful juice I ever tasted was from DIYflavorshack. When I can afford it I am going to have Dawn try making a custom mix.

There is no telling what you may or may not like. Try samplers fom vendors that offer them or only make small orders from vendors that do not. Try the liquid that you feel that you have some idea of what your expectations are, if they meet or exceed your expectations, feel free to make another order.

OK I am giving advice that I did not take myslf and am sitting with juice from a vendor (will not bash) that I find barely vapable, though others rave about it. To be honest, the juice is not bad just, as someone else put it, not for me.

Trial and error, no truer words have been spoken. I wish I had a dollar for every bottle of juice that I've dumped over the last year. You find one you like, order it again and it doesn't taste anything like the last order.
I've had the best luck so far with Geoff and TV. I do agree with the assessment on the root beer float, no root beer taste and overall, pretty nasty. Aside from that one all the other flavors I've ordered have been spot on to the description and I've had a couple, like Atomic Fireball, that I've ordered twice and the consistency has been very good... same taste... same vape.
I'm waiting on Blueberry Cheese Cake and Butterfinger as they seem to be collecting rave reviews. I'd give his product an 8 out of 10, the best of those I've tried and bottom line, his prices are very reasonable so, if I get a bad one or one I don't care for it's not going to break the bank.
