Appears you switched back to the OCC's, you running the 0.5 or 1.2?

Thanks for that song! I'm gonna give mojo a try.

I need to put another wick in the coil so I put an OCC in there for the time being. How often do you have to replace the coil?

It's a bit different with the pre built head in there. I can taste the mint more, the lime / strawberry less, but it's still very good, IMO. Less flavor overall.

Get a small bottle of it and see what you think first. I don't want to steer you wrong but SM may be my #1, surpassing even IOAR. :ohmy:

I brought out some more from order #2, and as usual I'm having lots of fun with flavors. Here's the report!

THE KIT: Clone (Bou) istick 30 @ 13W, Smoktech ADC II BDC tanks with 2.5 ohm factory coils
THE MIX: 50/50 12mg, steeped 3 weeks with regular burping and shaking, NO flavor boost

THE TASTING

Blubacco - This is a rich dessert-tobacco flavor. It has the same darkly-sweet tobacco base as their RY4Life, which seems to me to team up better with this distinct blueberry background. Nothing is muted here! Fans of the RY4Life flavor will like this, I predict, and even those that didn't like RY4Life will like this better. It's smooth and enjoyable.

Butterscotch Tobacco - This is brilliantly done, for my taste. The tobacco is clearly present alongside the butterscotch, but neither is too heavy. It's sweet, but not overly so. It's a very good ADV-type mix, and a very nice surprise for me. It's on my re-order list for sure.

Cha-Cha-Chai - It's brewed tea with chai spices. Not really sweet at all, but dead accurate! I've read lots of gushing commentary around these parts about this-and-that ultimately perfect chai flavor, but this one hits the mark with authority, and I wouldn't pay a penny more for anyone else's after tasting it. I will soon be mixing in a bit of my freebie "Sweet & Creamy" just to see what that's like.

Circus Bear - It's good! Sweet banana custard--not pudding--spiked with tart strawberry. It's lighter than I expected. Wonderful. I'm glad to have the 30mL bottle, and I'm looking forward to more steeping to see how it changes.

Havana Bourbon Tobacco - A lightly-sweet candy bourbon flavor, and I'm not quite getting the tobacco yet. It's probably the same base used in the Peach/Vanilla Tobacco flavors, which is a bit airy. It's pleasant enough, but I'm hoping it matures with more steep time.

Peachy Keen - A strong and syrupy candy peach with a bit of cream that might emerge more fully with extra steeping. It's not going to be a favorite of mine, regardless.

Peanut Butter Cup - It's good! Mostly peanut butter, but the chocolate background is there for sure. It's not as sweet as I expected, but that's a good thing for my taste. I can't do overly sweet for very long, but this goes down easy and tastes great.

Still Pending: Banchee, Bavarian Dream, Double Dutch Twister, Smurf Cake, Sweet & Creamy

I found this benefited the most of any VW juice by steeping - especially with the cap off from time to time.
The odd bourbon taste mellowed.

I got over a week on one and got bored. I keep trying new coil winds and wicks, experimenting. I'm quite happy with the rba and getting great dense vapor at 20-35W on a 0.8Ω twisted 28AWG coil right now.

That sounds good. I can't wait for my supplies to get here. I was talking to a guy at my local store about building and he said if I bought an atty, he'd help me build a few coils and wicks. They have a nice selection of authentic RDA's so I might get one today.

They have one called a "Doge" that is $40. They have the Lemo tank, too. IDK what to get but the RDA's appeal to me since I've got the Sub Mini for a tank.

Has anybody tried "So Berry Good"? I got it as a free sample and it smells great. I got the ? flavor to Vape Forward as well.

Before I started sub ohm, I used to get a little envious of posts like this (great dense vapor). But now, things have changed for me with the purchase of the little GS Airs. I am gettin great flavor and very decent clouds from these with stock coils and plan to build some. They wick suprisingly well, too and dont leak like the average bcc. I havent dripped or used my Rose in weeks. I have realized this is the level I most enjoy. That said, Im in a co-op for a sub tank and a Delta 2 :D

I've got to rebuild mine to dual coil. The prebuilt coils melted during a dry burn lol. Of the three RTA I have, I think the billow performs the best.

Ordered another 120ml of zebra gum and a 30ml of fruit bomb. Hopefully it's decent looking for a good fruit. I heard on reddit if you ask for a certain sample in notes they usually will give it? I tried for sweet complexity because everyone raves about it but I don't like banana that much. Either way this juice company is going to save me so much money it's unbelievable. Cheapest local house blends are 13 for 30ml screw that ha.

On my last two orders I requested certain samples and got them. Please and Thank You always helps ;)

Manoover, I always enjoy your reviews.PBC does better after some steep time. Im not a fruit fan but Im really likin my free Fruit Bomb. Tastes like fresh berries with a dominant blackberry flavor. Not to sweet but kinda muted more than I like in this Vivi Nova. I need more GSAs
There is no way you can stealth vape with these strong flavors :vapor:

Just wanted to say hello and thank everyone for all the VW reviews. Made it easy to take a chance on them... I'm looking for a new ADV that I can better afford.
Got 60ml of OCC, 30ml of Van Clouds and 30ml of Rice K.
I was impressed with the packaging, nice solid bottles in plastic bags and box = no leaking.
I had a question, on SC and Toffee DC, I asked VW about..and they sent me both as samples. Can't get better than that.
Shipping was long! USPS steeped my juice for 10 days. Can't fault VW as they shipped the day after my order was placed. USPS kept posting delays on my tracking.

I also got a ???? sample. It has a smell of Vanilla or cream to me. I'm dying to find out what it is but am trying to steep a few more days for 2 weeks total.
Has anyone figured out what ???? might be?

Thanks, Bikenstein. Hope you're staying safe playing with the lightning. You should put Blubacco on your list; I thought to myself "Bikenstein would like this one."

BTW, in addition to my new iStick clone, I've been playing with my new Subtank Nanos the last few days. Sweet Complexity at 30W on the 1.2ohm coils is pretty dam awesome, I must say.

FYI for Rachel: I've also been testing my Nautilus Minis on the new iStick, and have found 16W to be a very sweet spot with the 1.8ohm coils. Two tanks of On Cloud Custard are gone, with a used coil even...no sign of flavor or vapor loss, true voltage, no rattlesnaking. Firing for 2-3 seconds with a little primer pull at the end. I'll keep you posted.

Just because you said this,now i gotta go and put some sc in my subtank and crank it up to 30 watts just to see haha.I've not put sc in the sub yet,or went that high on wattage with it.Been running it on a .9ohm setup at around 12 watts,so i guess it's time to do some experimenting haha.

Your gonna like that subtank.I did not think i would because i have been using the tanks that i thought were well above what the sub could handle,i was wrong,i really like it,you can get very tight draw right up to crazy airy draw,plus the versatility of prebuilt heads or the rba base,it is quickly becoming one of my favorite tanks.I will be getting a 2nd one soon.

It makes a rich warm hit that's full of good flavor, but after a couple of those I gotta set it down for 10-15 minutes. I get definite over-nic flags with my 12mg liquid if I just sit there huffing away at it.

New order of juice just came in

Last order tasted abnormally strong so Vape Wild credited me enough for another sample pack.

Sent me two extra flavors the mystery flavor (banana dessert) and Strawberry Cotton Candy

Vape Wild has great customer service and their Mojo juices are some of my favorites from any vendor
