Hey all,

I cannot seem to find where the final results of this poll are located. Anybody care to supply me with a link?

Thank you!

I *almost* ordered from them the other day, but didn't pull the trigger because, although the price was enough to hold me back, I found the website as more of a deterrent. It's confusing as all hell and with the 19-day-old migraine that I've got, I simply would not put myself through that torture. Who the hell shops by size and liquid-line classification first? :confused:

Are they priced like a lot of the $20+ for 30ml juices in the market right now? Yes. Is the website a mess right now? Yes. Does the quality of juice deliver in my opinion? Yes.

These are all valid concerns that everyone has. So I'll send these concerns off to Mai so she's got some honest feedback to work from. She did give us a good coupon which I'm grateful for.

I agree! There are so many liquids I want to order from them, but even though I tried to cut the list down to just a few, it was impossible to limit it to less than five, which would be more than $100. I still wanted to make an order, however, so last week, I sent a message to the owner via their web site, hoping to find out if they would consider adding extra flavor to my juices or would advise me on which of their liquids had stronger flavor profiles, and I haven't heard back from him. To make matters worse, I checked and the only juice they sell with the 18 mg. nicotine I need is the custom e liquid and it is the most expensive juice they offer -- $30 for 30 ml!

They may have been busy with trade shows and they are a small company. It did take quite a bit of time for Mai to get back to me the last time which is abnormal for her. I'm not surprised in this day and age of cloud chucking RDAs that we don't see very much 18 mg anymore. Hardware has changed so much in the last year or so. I hope the boldness list we talked about the other day was some help to you. I'll let her know in my email that she missed yours.

funny how we all get so defensive when somebody knocks our fav brand. I know I am like that with AHL. Like a big sister on the playground that has to defend her little brother. Kudo's to you Noggin for defending them. I just hate it when I WANT something but my conscious gets in the way. What the he__ am I doing in this thread anyway.
I will be bothered more if I do not try them than if I just pull the trigger. I have emptied and re-stocked my cart so may time now......:facepalm:

I'm in Dallas. I haven't vaped any tobacco juices, so I don't know if I'd like them, but who knows? I mostly vape fruit and dessert juices. I have a couple of nutty juices that I like a lot too. I am on a big Peach kick right now, but I also love pretty much anything. The main issue I've had with juices is that they aren't flavorful enough for me.
that is most peeps problems when they at fairly new to vaping. It was mine. Stay away from high VG. You would probably prefer higher PG (makes flavor stronger) I would check out the Plume Room, anything with cinnamon, MOV has some bold flavors (the new Amplify line)

Yes, I really appreciated the list of bold vapes you provided the other day. Thanks again. Thanks for offering to remind Mai to respond to my message. She probably just hasn't had a chance to do it yet. I'm anxious to have a dialogue with her so I can figure out which of her juices are most likely to satisfy my need for bold flavors.

It's not always easy to find 18 mg. nicotine, but I'm not ready to try and reduce the nic content yet. I started out vaping 12 mg. but soon learned that I needed 18 mg. to keep the analogs at bay! I don't sub ohm or anything like that, so need the higher nicotine contents.

My first order of Plume Room juice arrived last week and is steeping! I'm so happy to have learned about them reading this thread! Does MOV stand for Mountain Oak Vapors? Thanks for all of the helpful tips and advice!

I just want to be a good ambassador for the companies that are doing something different or great. It seems like the e-juice market has turned into a tidal wave of trendy branding companies bottled up by places like Molecule Labs. Even Velvet Cloud has been eaten by the machine. Not that long ago it was all things donut. Then it seemed like pie was becoming all the rage. Are we post-pie yet? God I hope not because I just had a pie vape yesterday. And I had no idea that box mods were available at over 200w.

Newbies out there take note. Bookmark the totals and votes for future shopping. Juice Junkies new, old, and retired have vaped a collective dumptruck of e-juice to get here.

Yes we have!
And on that note, while looking through various containers and shelves for high nic I ran across Alice in Vapeland Twas Brillig and Zombie Apocalypse 18 and 24 mg (gadzooks) and had to try them out. They are almost two years old and still good. I remember getting so excited to order these. Back in the day when I would not dare order more than once a week and was feeling mega shame if I had more than 20 bottles (HA) now I have 20 bottles alone in my discard for the month box. Well maybe discard for 3 months

Yes, they are making 300 watt Rapter chip mods and in series 3x 26650 mosfet mods. It's insain.
Juices are getting ridiculous as well, I agree. New vendors popping up offering only 3mg and 6mg. You know right away who their fan base will be
Clouds bro Clouds!

I am on a big Peach kick right now, but I also love pretty much anything. The main issue I've had with juices is that they aren't flavorful enough for me.

I've struggled with finding juices I can taste as well. I started vaping 2/2015 and still trying things out. I vape 3mg. Ones I've found to be bold are: MBYC by Sicboy (Primary Flavors: Praline, Vanilla Ice Cream, Custard).

Lushington by Stash (peaches & cream-hands down best real fruit peach I've ever tasted w/ light but rich cream). Dark Star by Stash (bready custard, chocolate, caramel)

Hades by Cyclops Vapor (bold coffee, mocha and nut notes).

Sweet Complexity by Vape Wild (brown sugar, banana, cake, nut, cinnamon-sweet and complex no boost needed) and On Cloud Custard by Vape Wild (I get this with a boost, 50/50 and it's still one of my fav cheap custards).

Pineapple Cream (sweetened) by Ahlusion (pineapple w/ soft-serve ice cream), Lemon Vanilla Cake from Ahlusion (real lemon (not candy) w/ light white cake/cream) Tiramisu (Xpress line-bold coffee, cream, cake). Ahlusion has a ton of fruit flavors that many people love but I found most of my samples too light or I just didn't care for the flavor. The bolder AHL ones I've tried were: Strawberry Sunset (peach, strawberry, nectarine), Peaches & Cream (very peach forward), Caramel Apple (Xpress line-apple forward), Canyon Sun (orange and cranberry very bold) and Lemon Cream. I usually get AHL in 50/50 or 70/30 blends. Hope this helps.
