I LOOOOOVE chocolate chip cookies, so when I heard the rave reviews about such flavor you know I HAD to get some!

Well, I've let the juice steep about a month and a half. Its gone from light caramel color to a dark brown.

I just don't taste anything at all remotely close to a chocolaty chip cookie. Nothing. Same goes for Chocolate Cake. Nothing. No chocolate. A sweet taste, but that's it.

So this disapointment brings me to this question about the juice. Can other people taste the flavors on 3.7 volts? Or, an eGo? I feel like some KBV juice was just not made to be tasted in an eGo. I'm wondering if the flavors can only be enjoyed at higher volts?

I'm not trying to kick KBV, not at all. I have enjoyed other flavors from them without a doubt. But these two... these two I WANTED SO BADLY to loooooooove.

also ave troll bridge cookie from KBV also i have ricekrispy treat and fiddle paddle. Mine where actually given to me as a PIF and the flavors sounded awesome, smelled awesome too. I have never dealt with KBV personally and do not at all want to bash them and/or defile there name in anyway because I hear great things about them. My juice's are 6mg of nic so it might cause a difference in flavor but I tried ricekrispy and fiddle paddle and ( I am sorry for this) could not stand the taste now I am to afraid to even touch the troll bridge :(
I am really sorry to KBV for this like I said this is in no way a review that has any standing to how they really are and how there ejuice is it is just my opinion of said experience/taste. :( No disrespect
 
There are people who just don't taste chocolate or taste it differently than most in e-liquid. Again we never take personally anyone not liking a flavor, if it was as simple as everyone liking the same thing then there would be one liquid maker, the cheapest! :p

We use "Bait A" sampling to determine how the majority of people are going to like something and we also look at how things as well as ordering patterns, in which this case many people rave about both and order over and over.

Personally even when I started vaping and used other liquid I never liked the idea of judging 2nd hand liquid due to too many variables being involved. But again, we never take offense to the fact that a flavor may not be for a person :)

Well KBV, I still have hope for these two flavors! When I can afford a high volt mod *Provari I waaaaaant you* I can't wait to give them another go. But if they're not for me even then at that point, I'm sure someone else wouldn't mind trading a couple very well steeped juices from a prestigious vendor.

Hi Frosting! I do like Troll Bridge Cookie, but it's not my favorite KBV joose. It's fine, but I mostly just taste dark chocolate - was hoping for more of that "cookie" taste. When I first tried KBV, I thought their flavors were weak-tasting. So, I ordered them with extra flavor and also asked to have them mixed at 80/20 PG/VG. (Too much VG mutes the flavor for me personally.) They were great with my eGo and 2.0 Boge cartos. Then, when the dual-coil cartos came out, I tried the KBV flavors at regular strength, still requesting them to be mixed at 80/20 PG/VG. After over 3 years of vaping, this seems to be what works best for me. (Yes, I know - I am probably the only "oldie" that has not got a big "proper" mod yet.)

You might want to try again with a set-up that produces a different voltage/watts experience (IDK- :unsure:electronically-challenged). Also, the dual coils seem to work just fine with eGos - I haven't damaged any of my eGo batts yet.

I quit smoking six months ago and my tastebuds are still haywire. To me the Troll Bridge Cookie tastes exactly like the Candy Bar without the peanuts. No cookie taste at all. Warm Sugar Cookie tastes like Snickerdoodle, cinnamon and all. Gooey Better Cake tastes like the buttered popcorn Jelly Bellies, Butter Cream Icing tastes like regular Icing without the buttercream, and the Fruit Stripe gum tastes like the Gummi Worms joose. Irregrdless, I enjoy them all whether they taste like the picture or not. I vape using a REO Grand at 3.7v and 6v with Boge cartos.

I've always found TBC to be spot on - I taste the rich milk chocolate on the inhale, and the cookie on the exhale. Then again, I vape at 4v (11w) using a DCC on my Darwin, so YMMV. :)
I'd suggest revisiting it with a DCC - the dual coils really bring out the flavor. For example, V-Spot Vanilla tastes completely different in a DCC as opposed to a CE2 Clearo - it's much richer and sweeter when used with a DCC.
Hope that helps. :)

wow.. I vape it at 3.7v and I love it.
I will say I don't really get the whole standard choc. chip cookie flavor out of it, but I cannot really describe the flavor I do get either, other than to say that I love it and it's a main vape for me.
I do get a bit of chocolate, and honestly it's one of the better chocolate flavors I have come across.

the bakery stuff like b day cake, choc cake, gooey better cake i like all better in cartos, i wasnt a big fan of troll bridge, but didnt dislike it, mine was about a month steeped, i could definatly taste chocolate, more so in the choc cake,
my favs are the birthday cake, hummingbird nectar, have to have these,
just so you know i use a darwin at between 8.4 to 10 watts on around 2-3ohm attys which converts to around 4-6v depending
