For anyone with experience with the SC chocolate... does this stuff mellow out any with steeping? I'm getting massive TH with a 2.8% 50/50 12mg mix, and I mean MASSIVE. Tried to smooth it out with a little VG and a bit of SC cherry, but it's still almost killing me with the TH. I've steeped for 3 days, cap off. Any suggestions?

I've used that flavor quite a bit and I have not experienced that at all ever. What nic are you using? Have you mixed it up without the nic base to compare. The only reason I ask is some bases are more peppery/strong than others. Have you used other SC's? If so then its not the alcohol (some could be sensitive to alcohol in the base---its relatively rare on these but I have heard a person or two say that) but if you have used other SC flavors with success then its not the alcohol.

Please tell exactly what equipment you are vaping with. PV, battery, carto, clearo, ohms, volts, ... Everything so there is a clearer picture.

It's the "standard" SC chocolate.

The mix tested fine plain and I'm using a few other non-SC flavorings in the same mix with expected results. I'm running it through an A7 rda (silica, freshly coiled) and a Kanger eVod both at ~2ohms on a Provari @ 3.7-4.2 volts. Oddly enough, the TH doesn't seem as fierce with the rda. I'll rebuild the Kanger head tomorrow when I have time and test a bit more. The only other VZ flavoring I have is the regular non-SC Vanilla Swirl and it's great, no irritation at all (in fact, I quite love it).

This is my first experience with SC stuff, so I hope I'm not one of the rare sensitive ones. The impromptu chocolate/cherry mix I whipped up as a tester sure is yummy.

I'm interested to see what turns out to be the problem. Is it at all possible that it could be the nic base as Shilo mentioned?

Keep us posted if anything changes with a new coil and I really do hope it gets better for you. All I get from that flavor is nice tootsie roll type chocolate.

Fresh wick and shiny new coil smoothed everything out considerably for the eVod. I lost count of the dry burns on that sucker, so I suppose it was due. To celebrate this revelation, I've got 6 more VZ SC flavors inbound: Black Cigar, Melon, Banana, Coconut, Pear, and Bavarian Cream. Good stuff, good stuff. :)

I haven't tried these yet, so please post when you mix them. I would be interested to read some reviews :thumb:

Got my new Gourmets today have not mixed up but looking forward to it. They all smell sooo good but the Mocha Coffee I put its own baggie as I usually have to do with all coffees--- I can smell it a mile away...lol
We'll have to see if it is as good or better than the Nature's Flavors...
