So once again I ordered some name juices to see what the hype is about. The first came today, five pawns Queenside. Am I irritated that I spent that much on juice? Yup. Will I do it again? Hells yeah I will! This stuff is freakin' delish! Why, oh why did I wait so long to try this stuff? Creamy orange yumminess.

I think I may be the only one on the planet who didn't like any of five pawns juices.

I took a couple little sampler vapes at a B&M, and they all seemed nearly the same, and I wasn't impressed. I WAS in a bit of a rush, and maybe didn't give them a fair chance - but there seemed to be a similar "note" that I didn't really like in all of them. I'd like to try one (some just don't appeal to me by description) - but I really wish you could order 10 or 15 ml...

They do sell a sampler set for under $30. :p

I haven't tried any of the 5 Pawns juices...but they are on my radar. It seems as though they may be the new "Mad Murdock" style juice vendor with the complex juices I've been looking for.

Just two things stopping me. A) can't afford any of them, and B) I really only love one juice, and it's a plain Jane cigarette flavored juice. When I want variety, I vape a little Maha Ras and Radiator Pluid.

Funny you mentioned this. You were in a rush so maybe didn't give them a fair chance.
I wasn't in a rush & every last one tasted identical to each other.
I had to keep rechecking the bottles to make sure I had absolutely picked up a different one.

I knew there was a sampler, but only 1 or 2 SOUND good to me - that's why I wish I could buy a smaller volume of just 1 or 2. I'll probably end up going ahead and just buying em - I suppose if I hate it I can sell for nearly cost in the classifieds...

Or I can just wait - something else will pop up and take my money, I'm sure.
It's hard to spend $30 on juice, knowing that
a) Odds are MAYBE 50/50 I'll like it at all...
b) My very favorite juice right now costs me like $0.05/ml
:)

Thank you for posting. I was beginning to succumb to peer pressure and buy more juice I probably wouldn't like.

And that's exactly why I bought some. I wanted to see for myself what all the hype was about.
Talk about a big let down.
Admittedly it's been this way for me with all the most popular vendors.

You were right about Nicoticket though. I wouldn't have tried Custard's Last Stand or Creme Brulee if you hadn't raved about them.

Nicoticket was never on my must try list. I had a good feeling about them before placing my order despite having been disappointed by others in the past. Once I rec'd my first order I had to ask myself what took me so long. :lol:

I totally agree! I love Nicoticket! I don't even like vanilla but their Custard's Last Stand and Frenilla are two of my all time favorites!! I was hesitant to order because of the limited selection, but now I get it. They have a limited selection because they make sure that everything they release is perfect!!

I am SO glad I tried them. Just wish I had done it earlier before I wasted a ton of money on mediocre vendors.

Susan W. I had never heard of Tapatalk. I had to go
ogle it LOL Looks interesting so I may have to download the app :)[/QUOTE]

Tapatalk is great for "forum only" posting & PM's. It's either more difficult or not possible to do some of the intrinsic things (profile view & update, social groups, albums, etc.).

I've made the same statement once or twice ;)

Five Pawns Grandmaster is one of the best tasting juices I've ever tried. Kind of a banana cream/nut bread with a hint of peanut butter and maybe chocolate...and it's such a clean and smooth flavor. Seems to work well at any power level I've tried.

The other Pawns...meh. ;)

I know what you mean. I wouldn't even open my last bottle of Frenilla until it was back on the site so I could order more.

I know what you mean!! I ordered three big bottles of it so I wouldn't run out! I am just so upset that I missed the Be Mine. I LOVE dragon fruit and I know that Nicoticket would have done it right!! I guess I'll just have to wait and see if they ever release it again...

Little late to the party but..I tried 5 Pawns at a local B&M and fell in love with Gambit and Grandmaster. I bought a sample pack from them about a month later and...eewww. Something different. The Gambit had a chemically taste and the Grandmaster tasted ok, but not like when I first tried it.

The other flavors I didn't like at all. I wonder if the first time I tried it either my taste buds were shot cuz I just started vaping or their newer batches were just unappealing.

I am tempted to try the new flavors but only a sample pack first.
