I wasn't a fan. We bought 6 flavors from them. I also bought an ultrasonic cleaner to steep them in. After around 20 8 minute cycles over the course of 4 days (also used warm water while cycling), the stuff tasted the same as when we bought it. All of them tasted almost the same even though they should have varied a lot.

All 24mg, 80% VG all with the flavor boost.

Coconut, Bananza Nut Bread, Honeydew, Mango Peach Tango, Piña Colada, Spearmint,

The only one that didn't taste like the rest of the was the Bananza Nut Bread.

I then let them sit for a week... didn't help. They tasted even closer to the same. Then another week, now at 25 days... gave up and threw them away.

I'd been fine with the same taste, but they all ended up not being something I liked, so we threw them away and went back to our old stuff. Cignot's basic strawberry and pina colada. Now with my subtank mini, the pina colada is like getting punched in the face... I barely taste strawberry anymore, definitely time for something new.
VW's 12 mg was so nic-harsh that it interfered with the flavor. I can only fathom that their 24 mg of any flavor would be like vaping cayenne pepper.

After a few sniffs (rancid banana baby food??) I chucked my Bananza Nut Bread, bottle and all, simply on the principle that I refuse to vape any liquid that approximates the color of used motor oil. Even the dark NETs I've tried haven't been such an ugly shade of brownish black. Just from the smell, I got the idea that that stuff would forever haunt any tank I dumped it into. BTW, their RY4 has provoked a similar reaction, though I haven't tossed it yet. Just haven't gotten up the courage to try it.

Their Honeydew is to my palate too heavy on the flavoring to begin with, I honestly think it could only suffer from extra flavoring. I liked the mango peach tango, though I'd also say it's a bit heavy on the flavoring, as tends to be the case with all their fruit/fruit candy stuff. Haven't tried the others on your list.

I respect Vape Wild's business model. Their prices, service, and raw ambition are outstanding. Problem is that the majority of their juice reminds me too much of strolling down the cold cereal aisle at the supermarket, past all the insanely colorful boxes of insanely processed, insanely sweet, insanely artificial kiddie cereals. I get where VW is going with that, and I think they'll do as well as those cereal makers. I wish them well and thank them for making affordable juice accessible to me when I was in need, but my own vaping destiny does not lie with them.

To be fair though, I'd give them another shot...just for kicks, I'd advise dropping the nic to something ridiculously low for you, like 6 mg, and forego the flavor shots. Definitely pick up some Vanilla Clouds and Bombshell Batter, those were winners for me. You might be pleasantly surprised how addictive some flavors can be when you can actually taste them through the nicotine.

I'm new here but have been purchasing things from VW for several months.

My favorites right now are Butterbeer, Snickerdoodle, Wrecking Ball, Strawberries & Cream, and Green Apple Envy (usually mixed). Vanilla Bean Ice Cream was also good as a mixer. There were some samples I liked which I ha

I did not like Fruit Bomb, Pina Colada (I have the old version prior to the reformulation), and Chocolate Mint. These were in my first sample pack which was 65VG, 3mg. I also didn't like Hooch much when it was the mystery #1.

My current order which was placed just before reading this thread contains Tiramisu (60ml), Butterbeer (2x20ml), Green Apple Envy (20ml), Apple of my eye (20ml) and Cinnamon Toast Crunch (20ml)

While filling my cart, I noticed that the 30ml bottles are overpriced compared to 20ml bottles. The cost is the same per ml for 20 ml and 60 ml and much more expensive for the 30 ml. Not a clue why they are priced that way.

Wow, I did get Buttery Nuts with flavor boost in my last order but forgot all about it while writing. I am liking it too.

They are getting rid of the 20ML sized bottles and have them on sale until they deplete their stock

I just received my latest order on Friday and had to try the Tiramisu. It's great so far, even with only a few days of steeping. I'm using it in my Ego ONE Mega tank with a 1 ohm CLR head. That tank is very picky about juice in my experience, and I'm very pleased to have good flavor! In my order, the bonus juices were the new Piña Colada, Captain Munch and they Feb 16 mystery flavor.

This is the only place I have ordered from so far. Super fast shipping and loved the mystery bottle and the vape it forward. Some of the ones I got have a peppery taste to them...but being a noob I Think I might have ordered mine with too high mg of nicotine (18) other than that I love the smells and flavors so far.

I noticed you guys have been giving Vapewild a fair shot. I've tried lots of Vapewild's flavors in the past month and so far have been pretty satisfied with all of them. Definitely some good stuff going on here. I've never really given my flavors a chance to steep beyond a week or nearing two weeks. Here's what I think so far so maybe you guys will know what to pick.

TOTAL WINNERS:
-Cinnamon roll - cinnamon doughy-dominant with icing notes after some steeping. Loving it
-King Cake - comparable to cinnamon roll, less sugary, more cakey, almost "syrupy" taste
-Cinnamon Toast Crunch - comparable to the above, more straightforward cinnamon with cream/cereal backdrop)
-Tiramisu - a nice change from the cinnamon-dominant flavors. Very nice coffee cake flavor with chocolate overtones
-Creme de menthe (ordered 120ML of this one with a flavor boost. Basically no steeping required but cream notes round out after some time. It hits your mouth just like a mouthful of actual creme de menthe)
-(S+C)2 - SUCH a legit strawberry flavor, and soooo creamy. I can only describe this one as LEGIT.
-Circus Bear - just as good as (S+C)2. Strawberry + bananas + cream are blended together perfectly.
-Sweet complexity - flavor isn't as complex on my RDA as the description would want me to believe but this one is a winner. Mostly banana dominant. Rounds out nicely into other notes (a bit of cinnamon) as steeping progresses. Got this one with a flavor boost this time around.
-Strawberry Cotton Candy - very sweet fluffy candy-type strawberry flavor, not the same strawberry used in Strawberries n Cream.
-Vanilla clouds - this one definitely needs steeping to be worthwhile. Graham cracker and creamy/vanilla flavor dominant.
-Fruit Hoops - tastes just like fruit loops, I .... you not. And it's tasty as hell.

YUMMY:
-Summer Solstice - fruit flavors tend to be hit-or-miss with me but this one is pretty good! Pineapple and some coconut on top of some other stuff that unfortunately can't be distinguished too easily. Tastes simialr to Pina colada.
-Pina Colada - pretty straightforward & legit pina colada flavor.
-BaeBae Cakes - blueberry cake dominant flavor with pomegranate undertones. This one would be better steeped but I passed it on to a friend because it was pretty darn good and he needed juice :)
-Cherry cola - legit tasting cherry cola flavor! Hope to see this one come back.

Not bad:
-Wrecking ball - was expecting a banana flavor similar to that found in Circus Bear but was met with a more artificial candy-type banana.

If you don't want to wait too long with the steeping times get 65/35 VG/PG. I personally haven't found that big of a difference in cloud production between the two.

From what I hear, in general the flavor boost is unnecessary for most flavors and might make some flavors taste sharper, like cinnamon flavors. Most of the flavors are good enough as they are, but if you want a little extra of a flavor you like and think would benefit then go for it. It might help with MAX VG. Sweet complexity and creme de menthe are pretty damn good with the flavor boost. Gonna try (S+C)2 with the flavor boost next, as the flavor was never really sharp to begin with and is soooo juicy!

--------

And as for steeping, breathing is hardly necessary. Maybe it helps to breathe a sharper flavor for a couple hours but never more than 12 hours or you risk losing flavor! Instead of doing this I squeeze fresh air into the bottles 15-30 times every two days. I don't know if this actually helps or not, it might have helped with some of the flavors that were initially "perfumey."
And for adding heat, I'm not sure about how effective this is as I haven't had very measurable results, but if anything getting the juice warm for a good shake 'n' mix won't hurt anybody.

Summer Solstice 3mg is still my ADV

Tried snicker-doodle 12mg and I have enjoyed that. I hate that I missed out on the cherry cola, I so wanted to try that, here's hoping they do bring it back soon

My order should be here Monday from Vape Wild. If you're active military or a veteran you can enroll with your ID and get 15 percent off every order, nice plus there. I'm desperately searching for something similar to ECBlend Perilous Mint. I'm hoping their Candy Cane hits the mark. I also ordered creme de menthe and sweet complexity because so many positive reviews of it.

Just tried the Wreckingball, not bad and getting better with age. I only have two weeks on the steep.
Many other flavors too, just waiting on the steep. They smell good though, especially that donut :).

Always tough trying a new vender. I just threw out a couple of hundred ml of juice I was "trying" fun to talk about juice but I have heard so much of "this stuff is great" and I have not liked it enough to even keep for emergencies.

I have found I like these folks more and more after every order. In addition to what got me hooked the mystery flavors are usually good so anticipate ordering them when released at the end of the month. My old staples are Fruity Freeze and Cowboy Cooler is what got me hooked plus their twin mint gum my wife vapes pretty much exclusively. My other alway reorders Broke Down Slow Down, Long Beach Crush and Merica. I am continually finding new flavors and they have become my main vendor. I still order a lot from ITC but only two flavors. Also order two flavors from Mech Vapes. Great thing is they are all dirt cheap with great juice.
