You think the Lenola Cream will get better? Right now I'm having a hard time believing it.

Yes. I felt the same as you when I first got mine. It was like a hot fruity mess. I haven't touched it in a few weeks but it smells much better now that the fruity mix has mellowed. I'll have to try it again soon.

I got my 120ml bottle of Crunchberry from Dr Juice. It needs a bit of steep time but still not bad FOOB. Admiral Berry Crunch from MBV smells really good and doesn't smell like it needs to be steeped. Much cheaper than Crunchberry too. I'm not optimistic about Morning vape (Creamy Coffee) but MBV juices usually need to be steeped for 2+ weeks.

I think I'm going to try some Charlie Noble.

Looks like I'm on the same ordering cycle as you. Just got my Lanola cream also and not sure what to think yet. The juice tastes very floral in the Magma and Subtank,it tasted way better sitting in the tank overnight so I hope it will steep well and improve. I also think Charlie Noble is my next order, still can't find a vanilla custard I really like yet after a few tries they all seem thin and fake. Good luck and hope the Lanola gets better for us both, starting to hate all the hype, as I am usually disappointed. Also not thrilled with my Banana Pudding from the Plume Room, instant headache and very watery for 70vg. I'm starting to think maybe my taste buds are shot as I can't seem to find anything I love regardless of positive reviews.

Leona is meh...oops a month wait, common, unacceptable for ab real juice company. . Fail.

Where are you getting a month wait time from? I have never had to wait that long. My recent order I just got took 10 days. Yes a bit of a wait time but if you plan accordingly it should not be a huge deal. They also tell you that up front when ordering. They are working on that as well though. Lenola cream may not be for everyone, just like any juice that is for sure. Sorry your experience was not good. I know from my experience and most that I have talked to, You won't find much better customer service, bobby and Ann are top notch and respond each and every time I have asked a question. Lenola stays in my rotation for sure and has always been good for me right out of the mail box. Of course taste is always subjective :)
On another note I am hoping to get my steam juice package today or tomorrow. Eager to try it. I was not impressed a year ago but hoping my palate has changed a bit. Still searching for an alternative to my beloved lion :)

I don't mind juice being thin, as RTAs are my major love. I've also come to realize high vg is aggravating my asthma now that spring is showing up. And I think pg adds to the flavor.

But, the Lenola Cream just doesn't seem to appeal to my flavor profile.

Its hard to find good juice, that's for sure. I could probably use only NT if some of the old flavors came back.

For vanilla custard, have you tried lion by illuminati? If not definitely worth a try. I know taste is subjective but boy that stuff is good. I start stressing out if I have less than 120ml on hand.....LOL

    You are not wrong there, I've wasted more money on juice I haven't vaped, than anything else.

    When I do eventually do find a juice I love, I vape the crap out of it, and after so long it just gets bland to me, so the hunt starts all over again.

    That is what happened with Nicoticket, loved the juice, but got burnt out on it, but now I am back on the NT wagon, I am actually sad I love ACB so much, as know in 2-3 months, I won't care for it anymore, think I will have to limit how much I vape it, then maybe my palette won't get bored of it.

    I am still enjoying Delish at the moment, but ACB has knocked it off top spot for me, I did get a sample of Crunchberry from Dr Juice, not really my thing, I am vaping it for something different, but probably take me a month to get through this 15mil bottle.

    I think the Lenola cream is going to come around and the flower taste will subside. I do know that it is smooth and lightly sweet, so finishing the bottle shouldn't be a problem. Just like all of you guys I have juices that I have tried one tank and I know they will never be to my liking.

    The banana pudding strangely enough is delicious in my Nautilus mini with no headache but unvapeble to me in the dripper or Subtank. Just got some Nicoticket in the mail now, amazing 2 says from Nebraska to New York. Plume room was rocket fast with their shipping as well.

    I definitely can't vape the same juice all day every day. Maybe Virus because it changes all the time.

    But, I've gotten sick of Strawnilla lately so I need a break from that one.

    I'm new but I nothing really is knocking my socks off. Kind of freaking me out.

    I have tried..

    UniCorn Milk (CW) - Was my favorite, but soon after lost its bite to me.
    Sugar Bear (CW) - Probably the most flavor, but heartburn follows.
    YR4 Honey Badger (MadVapes)
    Strawberry Shake (MadVapes)
    Shanna by (BombSauce/BigBang) - I was really hoping this one would be awesome.
    Tutti Fruity - Mad Vapes (basically tasted like fruity COPYRIGHTDMCA cereal smells.
    Some Menthol /Mint stuff, I just tossed.

    I mean none of these are terrible, the YR4 was better after some longer steeping. Maybe I am just a picky ........ My wife is getting aggravated with how much I am spending trying to find something I like and get a full flavor from.
