I am convinced that USPS is currently recruiting sorters and drivers from crack houses and hospitals that treat traumatic head injuries.

I've had to chase down 4 of my last 6 orders from various vendors, and every one of them was found just sitting in some random corner of the post office for no reason. Address was correct, postage was correct--they just didn't feel like delivering them for some reason...

you must live in Vegas to....lol

Well....Guess what?.....Not in todays mail either...How hard can it be....They know the package was delivered to the wrong address on Saturday and now it's Tuesday....in the same city....and I still don't have it.....19 days since I ordered...:(.....the lady told me if it isn't there by close of buisness tomorrow, they will file a claim and start an investigation...this is getting ridiculous...Nice how the USPS goes outta their way to fix their mistakes....I wonder if I get a hold of Alice, she will send me a lil bit of everything and the whole inventory in the C room in 30 ml bottles for my inconvenience....lol......awwwwww...it isn't their fault !!

I received my "Little bit of everything" sampler a couple days ago.

Wow...

These flavors are incredible. I'm having a difficult time choosing a favorite, they are all so good. The blending of flavors is like art for the palate. Some flavors I can taste hints of certain things, and other things I can't quite place. I will definitely be ordering more, it's just going to be difficult to pick just a couple though.

Yep...I finally got it Thursday. This was my 1st order.....I have a big bottle one that should be going on in a day or 2...:)

White Rabbit I vaped 1st since that as the one that got me interested in the vendor to begin with...and it did not disappoint !!...You are right Maria...about it being like a chameleon...constantly changing...A little nutty...warming..I get maybe a tad bit of vanilla...coconut sweetness?......Hard to put your finger on it..I do see what all the hype is about

Footprints in the Jello was the 2nd one I tried and most looking forward to since it is described as PB and J...I got no PB...In fact, it was like a menthol...I couldnt get that taste out of my mouth for a day....Extemely disappointed

Cherry blossom was included as a free sample...love it...refreshing...perfect floral/tea balance...nice aftertaste...I ordered a big bottle of A Quiet Morning with all the hype...Hopefully it's at least good as this one

Zombie A....I like it....I vaped just a few drops the other night...Hopefully more flavor comes out as it ages...It does leave a nice tart/sweet strawberry taste on my tongue...As reccomended by Robin, I added extra flavor to a lot of my big bottle order.

Orange Makes me Creamsicle...I enjoy this one but i get all orange and no cream..:(..Not something I would order again but was nice to try

I still have to try Bandersnatch, Twas Brillig, and Pear Ship .....maybe tonight..;)

My big order includes.....Ravyn....ZA..TB, Bander, AQM, BW cookie, and White Rabbit

How's yours coming along Maria?

Isn't AiV just the best?

What's your favourite flavour so far?

Give "Footprints" a little time to steep - but definatly send them some feedback as I am sure it is appreciated!

After all - it's a flavour that is still in development - and when you order from the Secret Room you have to remember AiV themselves are not confident they are ready to join the general lineup.

At least - once a juice makes it on the menu - you can be sure it is of top quality and you can buy with confidence.

Who knows what some steeping does to it - ot what the final product will be like once it joins the menu.

Look at the Secret Room as a Beta Test

It's no biggie...I know Footprints is still in development...If I would have read the comments, I wouldn't have bought it...Steeping isn't gonna do anything.....Besides...I got the flavor of the week from Plume Room.....Peanut Butter Cream Pie...:)....30 ml's...That will satisfy my itch for PB....and I am more than impressed with everything else from AIV...the free cherry blossom more than made up for it...I am sure there will be more surprises awaiting when I get my next order !!

It's funny how everyone's tastes are different. I got plenty of cream in that creamsicle right away, but my boyfriend had to drag a few times to find it. I can tell I will eventually love the Cherry Blossom, but fresh cherries (I'm remembering the SpinFuel review) isn't what I got; it was more of the actual cherry blossom for me with a promise of cherries if steeped. The Black and White Cookie: I don't know if I want to steep it, because it is simply amazing out of the box. I ordered a huge bottle of White Rabbit, just to try to figure it out. After vaping it awhile, my tastebuds gave up and were tasting something acidic along with the coconut, which felt wrong to me, so I put it down. Perhaps that's what happens after six hours of oohing and ahhing over every inhale, perhaps I'm getting a cold. Both the Twas Brillig and the Zombie Apocalypse were so subtle I found myself vaping like it was my job, wishing I got a hint of more. I ordered big bottles of both of those too, to allow them to become what I know they will be. That was also my impression of the Cupcake City. I think so far I've been vaping such strong flavors that my tastebuds have become accustomed to heavy hitting flavors. Think I'll hang out with the afternoon tea awhile and let them settle down so I can enjoy my next shipment!

MariahPoo I'd love to know your take on T'was Brilling. Have you gotten a chance to give it a try, lol :)

Not yet I am waiting on more clearos in the mail.

Glad you got them. :) I have been interested in footprints. But not the current version. I might just order the version with less "coolness".

Also Orange makes me creamsicle is a steeping one. I still have not tryed mine. I think I will wait about a month. But I hear the flavors balance very nicely after a month or so.

Is anyone trying & liking crunkberry?

This one makes me sad. Steeped for 3 days during travel, then 4 more once it got here. Tried it (dripping w/ standard eGo battery & atomizer) - nothing. Just... nothing. Like vaping air. Several days later I picked up a twist, and I thought aha! this will do the trick for that tricksy crunkberry. Tried it at 4.3 volts/2.2 ohms (or, roughly 8 watts), and...

No. Nothing. Airvape. If I try *reeeeally* hard, I can find the taste of a bowl of milk after all the cereal is gone...however, I wonder how much of that is wishful thinking, just based on the name and what I'm expecting it to taste like.

Maria....I tried to order version 3 of Footprints....They only give you the most updated one...If you do not like menthol, do not get it !!

Good to know! Thanks for the heads up. :)

I am trying crunkberry right now. I really like it but it is VERY subtle. I would like to order this one with extra strong flavor. It tastes just like all crunchberrys cereal complete with the milk! YUM!

Sounds like you are having lots of fun with your AiV juices :)

How long since you stopped smoking mayamason? Have your tastebuds had time to recover yet? Mine took about 3months until they were 100% and often blamed the juice as I couldn't imagine they would recover much more.

If not you can respond to Nicole's email (order confirmation) and she will prepare them with bold flavors for you if asked.

They are great people and have the best customer service I have come accross in the industry - they will prepare the juice with TLC and to your liking!

I stopped smoking 5.5 weeks ago. So yes, that absolutely could be affecting my taste buds. And I know their flavors are intended to be subtle, so mixing those two factors together is most likely the issue.

I will say that VV (or more specifically, variable wattage) is key to many of the other flavors I tried in this order. Once I put them on the twist...."oohhh. OH! THAT'S what other poeple are talking about with this flavor! I get it now!" :)
