After almost 3 years vaping, I'm gonna say this: Vape Wild is everything a vape vendor should be. They have an on-line customer service person who is actually THERE to answer your questions and solve problems. The shipping is fast. Everything was top notch.

USPS mis sent my package and Adam was able to look at my address to make sure problem wasn't on our end (it wasn't) and the package got turned around by USPS immediately and reached me the next day.

I also got a sample with my order...which is nice because it is one that I didn't order but probably WILL order next time out. :)

I'd say their entry into the online ecig world is very..........spot-on, and carefully and thoughtfully admnistered. (If only all the vendors were like this!) This is how it should be.

In the end, GREAT customer service is going to win the day, as more and more competition enters the market.

I would agree their customer service is really good and they respond quickly. They also sent a few free samples. I do feel bad but honestly i hated their tobacco flavors. The premium line all tastes like it has the same base just with an added flavor. They also have a perfumy undertone which i seem to get with many different low quality tobaccos from other vendors. Turkish is the best out of the lot, but even then i would rate it poorly. Reds and lights has very bitter taste, perfumy and very harsh if used for awhile.

I have had many great tobacco flavors from vendors like GEJ, HHV, ITC and Vapor Station. The quality is just so much higher for a few dollars more.

Yikes, I hope my results are better - I wonder if you drip rather than use tanks, I do drip, and I've found a similar experience with some lower priced vendors (perfumey notes that don't seem to alleviate even with steeping)....

I use a BVC / Eleaf setup and the flavor is amazing with most juices. Whenever i get that perfumy taste i know it instantly. Most others seem to love VW but that could be the mass interest with non tobaccos.

Was this straight out of the mail? If so, do you believe that some steeping could help, or is it just bad overall?

Welp, we'll see today, I got a notice that my delivery has gotten here - I won't judge too strictly out of the box, as I know most juices are better with at least 1-2 days steeping, but I also agree with the other poster who said that is it's absolutely gross out of the box, it rarely improves that much.

I liked "Tennessee" from Vapor Station and Silver RY4 from ITCVapes, not sure what you meant by "GEJ"
I actually switched out the VW stuff for Silver RY4 today. It's funny you mentioned it! Such a better vape in comparison. GEJ = Goodejuice (Patriot is amazing).

Tested right out of the box and after a week of my normal steeping. There was no change. I am curious what you guys think once you try it.

Got my free sample from VW today. I ordered Peach Tobacco in max VG. They also tossed in a bottle of Sweet Complexity 50/50 3mg. I've got entirely too much juice at the moment so I'll likely let these steep for a couple of weeks. Big thanks to VW for hooking it up.

Sweet Complexity sounds pretty awesome. Heck, I may have to try dripping some of it tonight.

A rich blend of banana, rum, ice cream, cinnamon, brown sugar, and vanilla. Complex layers of flavor, like a sweet dream come true.

I have Tennessee in my tank as we speak... pretty good stuff, I like it. This was one of my freebie samples from VS.

My ITC S-RY4 has been steeping for 2 weeks and still smells horrible to me.

Only tobacco I ordered from VW was Reds... the rest are fruits & bakery. My order "should" be here tomorrow, hopefully.

Well, I got my order in today. Ordered on the 19th, shipped the next day on the 20th, and received today. I got the sample pack and asked for a sample (well actually I asked for 3 but told them to surprise me with which one) and they ended up sending me all 3 samples that I requested! I was kinda hoping they would but didn't think they actually would so I am very pleased with the customer service and freebies! I opened them up to let them breathe and gave them all a sniff test, they all smell great and pretty much like what I would expect them to. The only one I've tried so far is the Mango Peach Tango in my Aspire K1 and iStick, tastes great so far. No weird harshness or perfuminess, I'm enjoying it. Juicy and smooth, almost tastes like there is some creaminess to it even though it isn't one of the flavor profiles listed. I've already recommended them to a few friends since their prices are really good and they have a lot of flavors.

Got my order today, and my first impressions are overall quite pleased! Packaging is very professional, all juices are nicely labelled and plastic-wrapped.

Kiwi berry: A

Very nice natural kiwi flavor, lighter on the strawberry. Maybe one of the best natural kiwi flavors I've had.

Dulce de Lech: incomplete

I can taste the cream here, but not much else...needs to steep some....no weird or chemical overtones though.

Zebra Stripe Gum: B+

Faithfully captures the essence of this classic gum, better than the MBV version, IMO. Stronger lemon-lime component.

On Cloud Custard: A

Very good vanilla custard, smooth, rich and tasty! Compares well with Gremlins vanilla custard, the hype is justified.

Strawberry cheesecake: B+

They threw this freebie in, very nice of them. Packs a ton of flavor, although I would have liked a bit more creamy cheese. Strawberry pops nicely over a rich graham crust note.

Peace pipe: B-

Not too bad, but lacks a deep tobacco backbone. I get a trace bit of floral too...this is a light and mellow tobacco...I am pretty choosy about my tobaccos, so maybe some steeping will improve things.

i noticed that overall, fairly light TH at 6 nic, not a big deal, I'm just used to a bit more oomph, even at that lower nic level, might be the nic they use?

All in all, great juice, especially for the price point. All juices are at 70/30 PG/VG ~ these guys are actually shipping some 30/70 my way because I let them know that's what I meant to order (I rushed through the ordering process like a shmo)...how cool is that?

Without a doubt, these guys are added to my favorite circle of vendors: In the Clouds, ITCVapes, and Keystone.

I ordered my sample pack on Thursday November 20th around noon and it shipped out the same day. It arrived today (Monday November 25th) and I couldn’t be happier with the prompt service. Vape Wild is a class act when it comes to service and that alone is reason enough to keep these folks on the short list. I am in California and some in state vendors take longer than Vape Wild to deliver so for them to get the package to me from Dallas this quickly is a great testimony to their commitment to the vaping community. I received two bonus 10ml bottles with my order for a total of 80ml for $21.68 shipped. I tested each of these tonight on a Dark Horse RDA with a dual coil .8 ohm build with fresh Cotton Bacon wicks. I’m not a reviewer normally but my thoughts so far are below. All samples are 30/70 with 6mg nicotine. I had ordered flavor boosts for all of these but I cannot verify if the samples I received included the boost since no markings on the bottles confirmed that to be the case.

Buttery Nuts: 6/10 pre-steep. I’m getting a sweet buttery flavor on the inhale but the nutty flavor is a bit muted. It almost has a buttery popcorn flavor. I am getting an odd coolness on the exhale that I’m not sure about. This one has potential. I like it, but it needs to steep.

Nuttin’ Better: 6.5/10 pre-steep. Dominant buttery aroma. It is a smell that I very much enjoy so I want to like this one. This is slightly better than Buttery Nuts and has a similar flavor profile. Buttery on the inhale with a nice nutty flavor on the exhale. I think a few days in a cold dark closet will bring this one up a few notches. To be candid, I haven’t had much experience with nutty flavors and I’ve realized that they aren’t an ADV for me. I can see them getting rotation as a nice after dinner vape.

Cinnamon Roll: 8/10 pre-steep. This one is a nice cinnamon toast crunch flavor with cinnamon on the inhale and a cooler creamy note on the exhale. This is very reminiscent of one of my ADVs from Gemini Vapors called 100 Grand, but a tad less sweet. It isn’t quite as good as the 100 Grand, but for the price of this I’ll gladly substitute this one. Very enjoyable.

Sweet Complexity: 9/10 pre-steep. This is as good as everyone has claimed. I get different flavors on every hit…often a dominant buttery banana flavor on the inhale (sometimes cinnamon) with a hint of rum on the exhale. I cannot recommend this one strongly enough. Someone has mentioned bananas foster…that is a good description. I’m ordering a larger size of this.

Bananza Nut Bread: 5/10 pre-steep. I wanted to like this one but I’m just not feeling it. I get a very odd chemical nut on the exhale that just doesn’t agree with me. I can tell that Vape Wild does nuts and butter accents very well from the other juices, but I think this one needs to steep a bit more in order to smooth out the transition to the nutty exhale. I normally love banana type vapes (Gemini Royalty is my favorite ADV) but this one tastes a bit too artificial for me. I’m going to give this one some time.

Dutch Apple Pie: 6.5/10 pre-steep. The initial hit had some chemical notes on the inhale and exhale, but the apple on the inhale tastes like a fresh apple. It is definitely not a candied apple and that is a good thing for its intended flavor profile. I’m getting a hint of cinnamon on the exhale but I’m not finding the pie crust. I think the chemical note I’m finding is intended to be the pie crust so I’m going to give this one some time. There is potential here.

Tiramisu: 8/10 pre-steep. I’m not normally partial to tiramisu, but that is mostly because I’d rather order something else from a dessert menu (give me a chocolate covered brownie a la mode any day!). This was a “freebie” included with my order and I must say that from my experience with tiramisu, they’ve nailed this one. This one has a rich coffee exhale that I quite like and that is saying a lot since I’m not a coffee drinker (Diet Dr. Pepper in the morning!). I have a bottle of Philip Rocke Grand Reserve that has a nice hazelnut coffee profile and this is a close second to that one. At its price point, this is excellent.

Raspberry Cheesecake: 7/10 pre-steep. This was another “freebie” included with my order. The raspberry is subtle yet forward on the inhale with a hint of creaminess. The exhale has a similar profile with a tart note to it. The attempt at cheesecake hit me as a bit odd (artificial?) on the very first inhale but settled down after that. A short steep is likely to blend this nicely and I expect it to round out.

All things considered, Vape Wild is a huge win. Compared to my first Zamplebox, these guys blow it out of the water! Vape Wild obviously puts a concerted effort into formulating their product. A mild amount of steeping would benefit each of their juices, but nothing I received was patently bad out of the bottle. The greatest disappointment for me was the Bananza Nut Bread; I’ll give it some time. Thank you to all who have recommended these folks. The success of this first order guarantees that I’ll be trying more of their flavors and ordering larger bottles in the future. Vape Wild is an example to the industry on how to run a business and build a product line.

Just dripped some of the Sweet Complexity sample I received. It's... okay. I'm not big on cinnamon vapes and this juice carries just a bit much cinnamon flavor for me. I was hoping the banana would be a little more forward. It's not bad but it's definitely not something I'd order. I'll likely let it steep for awhile since I have a scrillion bottles of liquid on hand. It tastes fairly clean though and smells righteous.
