What do you normally like in a vape? I personally loved blue moon ice cream and juicy fruit as my overall favorite, ripe strawberry is right on for the real thing, shamrock shake is great, etc etc.

Believe it or not I like most except tobacco if they are good but good juice is incredibly hard to find. Fairly priced good juice is a diamond in the rough...needle in a haystack etc....u get my drift lol.

Tried the rootbeer today, not a fan. There is no flavor to it at all. It is really thin so I let it wick up all night and there is no difference. It had been steeping for a few weeks and it never smelled like anything.

There seems to be an odd division in KJ juice. You've got some that are really flavorful, then a handful that all seem to suffer from the same lack of flavoring. I wonder, are there many people who do mixing, or is it just Walt? It seems like there's some quality control issue. This isn't an isolated report, and it's happened across several flavors and multiple posters.

I've ultimately added some flavoring to my bottle of KJ chocolate mint, because without something more in it, it just tasted like nothing. I wasn't really wanting a bottle of DIY, but better than dumping it down the drain.

I received Shamrock Shake, Strawberries and Cream, RY4, and Blue Moon. They have only steeped the few says they were in transit. The Shamrock Shake and Blue Moon are great fresh, I can imagine them with a good steep. RY4 is very good but a little weak. Again I think after steeping I will understand the rave reviews. The strawberroes and cream has almost no flavor so we shall see what steeping does for it. I am old fashioned; my steeping method is to put them in a dark drawer for a few weeks and shake when I think about it. I am not disappointed and give benefit of the doubt until steeped. Thanks Walt!

Had a rough experience with the root beer as well. The sweetener in it tasted really odd, like the aspartame in diet soda. Then on the exhale...straight potpourri/perfume. Two others with me had the same taste as well. FWIW, I'm not upset about it in the least. No one juice maker can satisfy all the people all the time, and Walt has been beyond awesome in my dealings with him, plus he has so many other juices that I really enjoy.

I'm really surprised at that actually. My bottle is in a fight to the death for the bronze medal...currently tied for fourth with Ripe Strawberry (after Shamrock Shake, Boysenberry Pancakes, and Cream Lickable). I've found it to be one of the most flavorful vapes in the lineup.

Add in so many ways to get the liquid vaporized and that makes it even tougher. Just switching between iclears and EVODs makes a huge difference for me. The weaker stuff, fruits for example, is fine in iclears but no taste in EVODs whereas the deeper flavors, such as creams work best for tastiest vape for me. I usually try new stuff in an iclear and if it's intense I'll put it in EVODs next fill.
Cotton wicks vs silica, different wattage, clearomizer vs other methods, etc can change the experience tremendously. Not to mention the time since quitting cigarettes. My taste buds are weirding out, I've been through vapors tongue and as it woke up it seemed to 1 taste range at a time. At first everything tasted like the taste when you test a 9 volt battery with your tongue,a very sour metal taste.
Walt, as you wrote, does a great job with his stuff imo and I've not had any other than a bad bottle of Shamrock Shake and a bad bottle of White Chocolate Tobacco that I didn't want to finish and Walt made very good on those once I contacted him.

I tasted my juice in little 510 bridgeless attys which are normally great for tasting flavors. As I said, I am going to let these steep awhile because I have found drastic improvement with just a few days in the past. I will also have evods (which I rebuild with cotton wicks) and Iclears. I will try the strawberry in an Iclear in a few days. I bet it is a totally different experience! Thanks everyone!

On another note, Walt, I posted your sale in the Deals and Steals thread (post # 1173). Hope this brings you some slam up business! Any brownie points are greatly appreciated :rolleyes:because I will be ordering again (probably before Thursday LOL! That Cream Lickable is calling my name...)

Yea same here I absolutely love my strawberries and cream and chocolate strawberries

Guys as far as root beer I've never tried it But I do have root beer float on the way. Walt posted earlier that he was changing something in the root beer float so I wonder if he's changing something in the root beer also. I waited for him to ship my root beer float order a few days because of him reformulating it.

Is the "510 bridgeless atty" those little cigalike cartridge sized things but are semi clear and easy to refill ? I love them for trying new stuff. I gave mine to my son. Thanks for reminding me. I'm going to see if my local vape shop got more in.
I'm using ripe strawberry in an iclear because it is Killer in one without having to drop the wattage on the itaste below 7 watts. The EVOD I can crank up to 11 watts no problem but it didn't make much difference in the taste but did kill the battery a lot faster. I'm sure if I did my own cotton in them that'd help but my attempt at wicking ended up setting if the smoke alarm. Don't ask but it burned enough to set it off and ruined an EVOD.
I got an email last night late about the sale, went to Facebook and looked up the fan page and shared the post about the sale. Watching all the folks thinking they've got the real deal with their chemical juice bought locally is brownie points enough for me.

My sweet lemon tea custom blend showed up a day early. Stuff shipped Saturday, was at my house in Virginia when I got home from work this afternoon.
Mimi initial taste was "lemon zest" but after a few hits its tasting like a mild lemon juice with a very slight hint of sweet, and I mean very slight. The tea is a very mild secondary flavor, that I can't quite tell if is green tea or white. Either way GRAND SLAM ON THIS ONE!!
Did anyone else get their Chocolate Milkshake in yet? I'm awaiting others opinions before giving mine but mine is positive. I think it needs a couple of days to age more. Mine was made after the samples all got sold,I got it as a custom flavor and Walt said he was out so between the super fast ship and it not being aged but a little before ship I'm going to let it age longer.

Yeah I should warn everyone. When custom flavors are made they are not steeped or even shaken for the most part. They will need some time to come of age for sure.

Also who was the person that just placed an order 1 block away from my house -.-

I have a Killer Juice Stalker!

Jeff you told me you called off the cat minions!
