Has anyone tried the Vanilla Bear juice yet? I am looking for an awesome Vanilla and can't seem to find it at a decent price. By the way, Big Bear, I admire you for not overinflating the shipping rates.

Okay everyone who has had a chance to try this juice...........what is your favorite and what strength???

Hey sandyk,

We hate paying shipping rates ourselves. It can make or break a sale. So we did our best to gauge them. USPS is cheap & usually quick. We have an automated shipping center close by & we took the bottles & filled them with water & weighed them. Presto! Fair shipping rates. For Priority shipping we use flat rate boxes so we know the cost. Simple. Fair.

About our vanilla. We use 100% Vanilla Extract with no alcohol. It is more than a hint of vanilla but not overly strong.

Thank You & remember....

It's The Bear juice & Nothing Else!

Hey everyone! I am excited to place an order myself and was thinking of trying the cherry, cinnamon and cotton candy (they all sound wonderful)! But I was curious.. those of you who have tried these flavors... did you get PG, VG or a mix?

Thanks!

Hi Grady193,

Well.... if you like more vapor, VG. More throat hit PG. We use a 60/40 mix of VG to PG as our house blend. Also, think of the flavor. If you like cinnamon, maybe PG is in order so you can feel the hit & the flavor. Something like cotton candy does not really need a TH unlesss you like that.

You can always go house blend & get a bit of each.

Just our 2cents.

just received my 16mg cotton candy and raspberry on house blend today and it was super fast shipping ( well i only live about 30-35 minutes away from SF haha).

Didn't have any standard atty's to test it on, only dry cartomizers but overall the taste/vapor/throat hit was all good and both taste really great but not overpowering.

I also like the top of the bottles top design nozzle which eliminates screwing and unscrewing from other conventional bottles.

My only gripe is that i wish the bottle was a tad bit softer when dripping because it takes alittle more than standard effort but not too much to get it out, but i can live with it and will be purchasing more in the future.

Bear:

There are a few of us who are so sensitive to PG that even a little bit of it in the flavoring causes symptoms. I am one of them.

I have ordered liquid from other suppliers who use an all VG base, and some of them had PG in the flavoring (but it was not listed that way on their site). Some suppliers manage to make good tasting liquid without any PG in the flavoring.

Your site and flavors look fantastic and I would love to order some but have to know about the content of the flavoring you use. Do your flavorings contain PG? You may have to ask your source for the flavorings to find out.

If some flavors contain small amounts of PG and others don't contain it, which flavors contain No PG?

Thanks for the info.

Hey Bitey,

Our flavoring has no PG or VG in it. However our current nic liquid is cut with PG from the source. You are not alone. We have many e-mails that ask the same question. Our next order will have no PG or VG in the nic juice. As soon as we get that we will post here & update the site.

Thanks,

Okay so review time!

http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...ew-bear-juice-tobacco-menthol.html#post642095

I recently purchased a bottle of juice from Home - The Bear Juice.

Well, lets just break it down so its easier to read.

I ordered a tobacco menthol mix from them in vg, their a new company and they definately are quick to ship!

Packaging. 3/5 The bottle is a nice size I just dont like it because of the little dripper spout and the plastic used, FAR to hard to squeeze. A pipet or syringe included would possibly be nice.

Shipping: 5/5 Nothing to say but fast to blend the juice and fast to ship.

Vapor: 5/5 Its vg, the vapor is awsome, nice large clouds!

Throat hit: 4/5 Once again, its VG, Im not too too big on throat hit as I have a sensitive throat so I really enjoy it.

Flavor: 2/5 Okay, it may just be me.. But theres such a light flavor its really not even there to me. I can taste traces of flavor and a friend who is a nonsmoker tried a little hit and said they couldnt taste a single thing. Not sure if its that their mixes are off or their just expirimenting.. Such little menthol its just barely there.

Overall. Despite the problems the juice is smooth as anything and the vapor is excilent as is the buzz from it, the shipping also is excilent and would definately try ordering again with a note for more 'flavor'.

Hey draco,

Thank you for your honest review. We are sorry you were not very satisfied with the Tobacco/Menthol we created for you. We have taken note of this & will try & work it out. We use fresh tobacco leaf & organic menthol crystals. We believe that maybe the distilled water in the brew process from the tobacco may have cut the flavor. Under our testing we found that those 2 flavors where the lightest but where appearent.

As for the bottles. We were quoted many prices & they where all a rip off. We understand that using PETE plastic is a bit off the norm but we feel it is a safer bottle. We are looking for slightly softer bottles, but we will not use the bottles that are normally sold. They leak, & the tops come off if liquid gets under them. The cannon caps we use offer better control with a smaller hole for less overfills.

Thanks for the idea of the pipet or syringe. We will look into that. We are determined to keep our prices low, so if we can find really good deals, we will offer them with each order.

I personaly im not happy untill each customer is happy with the results. I am very sorry about that. I hope you will give us a try again sometime.

I encourage all users of our juice to leave a review. It does not have to be as detailed as Draco's (although it would be nice :)) but just an honest review of what you think.

Thank you to Draco & all who have left reviews & for trying us out.

All the best

Hi All!
Just a quick review:
Shipping was very quick! (Sorry, I can't quote the exact dates off the top of my head this early in the morning)
I ordered the house blend of cotton candy and cherry. Both are YUMMY!!! Cotton candy flavor could have a LITTLE more flavor to it for my taste, but otherwise it does taste exactly like state fair cotton candy. The cherry is VERY cherry! Just like a slushy or maybe a Jolly Rancher? As I stated before, YUM!! Good vapor and fair TH.
I will definitely be back for more in the future!
Thanks BEAR JUICE!!!

So after using it for a day and ill update this in the review. The menthol taste came out a bit more, same with the tobacco, its a very light flavor but as I said ;) Even with the barely any flavor [to me] it still was a satisfying vape and now that the flavor is comming out [[overnight with the cap off] Its getting better.
