The Really Big RY4 Roundup (long)

[billherbst]

Bill have you had time to experiment with Red Pirate? I ask because I am enjoying it more and more and have demolished half of my 12ml bottle. That toasty, cereal-ish flavour is just marvelous. I think it would make an excellent base for an RY4.

scarf,

Tonight I got out my half-full 15ml bottle of Red Pirate, which I admit is getting a little long in the tooth---at 18 months old, the juice's flavor may have flattened out some and no longer be accurate (or good). The label reads "exp. 3/12." Yikes! That's six months ago. Well, I can't do anything about it, since this is the juice I have to work with.

So, I mixed up 1.5mls of diy RY4 Double from TPA and added 1.5mls of the Red Pirate to make a little sample bottle of (trumpet fanfare) RP4.

Shakeshakeshake. Atty-drip. vape. My reaction? Very odd, confused flavors, and sort of sour. Not the good kind of RY4 sour, more a what-the-hell-is-this? sort of weird sour.

OK, don't give up just yet. First try some Red Pirate alone for a control.

Blow out atty. Drip. Vape. Ah, yes. Toasty tobacco. No sourness. Still fairly tasty, even with Alzheimer's.

In science, a failed experiment doesn't prove much---it merely disproves one specific thing. Perhaps the 50/50 proportions were wrong, or my all-VG liquid nic made for a lousy base blend (too much VG?), or maybe Red Pirate and RY4 Double just don't like each other much. I could try a 2:1 ratio, or PG nic for an 80/20 base, or one of the many other RY4 flavorings I have (or simply straight caramel and vanilla, for that matter). Right now, though, I don't have the gumption for all that, so I'll simply report my initial findings.

After one experiment, I prefer Red Pirate as a stand-alone vape, rather than a mixing juice.

YMMV, of course.

Nandy....ya the crystal double is good...I liked them both but the double more....I think i would like a triple tobacco too lol

Revolution Vapor RY4.....I was on a streak key word here ......was....I think you guys are rubbing off on me so I will walk softly...Its not horrible but I do not like it for all thats worth. Its nutty, Ikenvape good nutty... no way...the nuts are at top when a mix of caramel and vanilla below, the tobacco is very light but is present. This is your common nutty RY4 that just is boring.

Due to the recent Bill's reviews I decided to go with Crystaleliquid and RWvapors and I'm so glad I did it. Both juices are so good..

The funny thing is that I ordered all in 30ml size except for the Crystal Double Tobacco that I ordered in 10 ml size and it is the one I like more. I was afraid of the extra tobacco but I was wrong so a new order is imperative .

I can't stop vaping this stuff right now, especially love the tobacco base. It's so good. Just placed another order myself!

Not sure this has been touched on but eliquidplanet has been around and are a respectable vendor they have a Essence juice line with a RY4 that I have had my eye on called Gold. I have not ordered this yet but here are some reviews.

This juice is fabulous! My favorite all day vape! It is a very light tobacco with a light sweet taste. If you are looking for a dark sweet vanilla caramel vape, you will not find that here. It is a bit similar to Dekang, but 100 times better! It is hard to describe, but I find that I just CAN NOT put this one down! Give it a try, you will not be disappointed!

this is just like Tribecca...but better! If you like RY4 or Tribecca you'll love this Liquid Gold

Like a lot of new juices it takes a while getting use to and some steeping plus a good cleaning of your attys in between different flavors

passer,

Next to self-promoting vendor hype (stuff like "we sell the finest e-liquid available"---yeah, sure, tell me another one), customer reviews are about as trustworthy as politicians and bankers. LOL.

So true ! Roy you gonna have to take these bullet for the team so whe can enjoy your review.

 

[ogredog]

Mr. Passer be the man and try it out...heyyy we'll get the next one lol right? Anyone? I still have 3 orders in transit lol

 

[passerbyeus]

I took one for the team many many times I have yet to see a review from roxxette!!!

 

[Roxxette]

hahaha im just part of the audience, but i have 2 ry4 coming from lot buy and i promise to post my "review" wich will probably be very brief.

 

[ogredog]

I think we all have! I'm just not in a burned out slump like you are right now, but I've been there a few times...in fact I'm getting there again. I just tried the two coffees MOV offers. I prefer the coffee&cream to the MOVaccino. Neither are great, (good for coffee vapes)but are above average. I had high hopes too. I think when this big mess I'm in is over I'm done doing reviews for life lol ill just stick to ry4s,tobaccos and cinnamon and be happy

 

[passerbyeus]

The juice vaping world is full of broken dreams and hopeless promises lol but it did help me to stop smoking which is why we are all here, most of us anyways....its just crazy I have a let down also one of the best suppose to be RY4s out there is just a bummer Ikenvape Gold, it is crazy how much it taste just like DK-Tab, I had to try again and it confirms it, I dont care what Ikenvapes fans say this juice is 99% if not 100% just like Tab. Its good dont get me wrong because I like DK-Tab but you can get 100ml of tab for 25 bucks and would never know the difference.....I know this has been discussed before but its official if paserbyeus says it!!!! hahahaha

 

[Cool_Breeze]

passerbyeus - does it 'smell' like DK-Tab?

The juice vaping world is full of broken dreams and hopeless promises ...snip

Sigh.....
It took me a good six months to find the juices that I like. And as we all unfortunately as well as fortunately have found, that is subject to change. Vaping is a wonderful adventure for me.

Did you try both ikv ry4 ?

 

[Cool_Breeze]

Yes it does

I liked DK-Tab until I smelt it.

 

[billherbst]

Ikenvape RY4 Gold does taste similar to DK-TAB. Amazing but true. I'm sure that's not what Isaac intended, but Life played a little trick on him. Oh, they're not perfectly identical---I can tell them apart. But they're a little too close for comfort.


In a moment of reality-checking self-doubt, I wondered if the high grades I've given recently in RY4 reviews might be a sign of madness on my part. So, I grabbed the two ammo boxes that sit on my desk (which now hold 83 RY4-loaded cartos), grabbed the RWVapors and Apollo cartos, and vaped both RY4s. Then I began to randomly sample other RY4s to compare. This wasn't exactly a blind taste test, since the labeled cartos in the ammo box holders are organized alphabetically by vendor (otherwise I couldn't easily find whatever RY4 I'm looking for), and---since I know that---location alone of any RY4 I grab gives me a clue at to what vendor it might be. Blind test or not, however, the results were revealing.

RWVapors RY4 and Apollo RY4 are as good as I thought! Out of 15 other RY4s I tasted, those two knocked the socks off about half of them and were perceptibly better than any of the others. (In fairness, that was no shock, since my Top Ten personal favorite RY4s all get red drip tips, while the other 73 have black drip tips, and I chose only from the blacks for comparison.)

Why are they better? Well, in the case of RWVapors RY4, it's the tobacco, which is really, really tasty. For the Apollo RY4, it's the harmonious balance in how the three core flavors interact to produce a lovely end result. Personally, I like RWVapor RY4 a good deal more than Apollo, but that's because I'm a tobacco guy.

This little test leads me to assume that I'm not crazy. Either that or I'm completely 'round the bend---utterly mad, cuckoo for cocoa puffs, and so totally whacked that I just twist reality however my dementia wants. LOL.
