I tried Nutty Cookie for the 1st time yesterday, and it really grew on me as the day went on. I'm getting a "sugar cookie" taste out of it. I can't really taste much nuttiness. I think this will definitely be a reorder for me. I love my cookies. It brings back memories of my grandmas Christmas cookies. Also even though I had ordered a 15 ml. bottle of it, when it arrived it came in a 30 ml. No complaints here-I'll always take more of a good tasting juice.

All over the place
Are there any vague rules-of-thumb for this? Like "fruit flavors generally need less steeping" or "for the love of all things holy, don't try most tobaccos without steeping at least XX days"....?

And FWIW, I couldn't help myself and dripped Maple Mountain right away. Fabulous, just plain fabulous. Subtle but very genuine flavors. Especially after tasting another maple this morning that was not so hot.

The only "rule-of-thumb" is that each juice will have its own "rule-of-thumb." :thumb:

I was going to recommend that one as a good one to hit right of of the mailbox. Some of the chocolates can have a sort of artificialness to them that I'm not fond of until they've steeped for a week or so. I've noticed it more with Mewlew's than the other two, maybe because it's a somewhat sweeter chocolate to me than the others.

I have been out of the reviewing frame of mind for quite some time, but this juice and vendor are worthy of my impressions.

-snip-

p.s. Burley Beard Tobacco is more paired down, and while decent, not all that exciting enough for me to review.

Huh. Our palates seem to jive most of the time. I find we have the same thoughts on most flavors. This just isn't one of them. And that's totally ok. :) I love your vocabulary and vernacular. Always an interesting read.

I really like Blue Beard. I'm horrible at describing what I like and don't. Same with taste. But I do agree with the Mann in that it smells exactly like Gold Rising. Also a great juice.

I'm on my second bottle of Blue Beard now. First was a 15ml, this one's a 30ml. It has a permanent spot in my vape cabinet. Along with Caramel Swirl, Burley Beard, and White Beard.

Can you give me an idea of the Caramel Swirl? And have you tried any other caramels you can compare it to?

I received my Night Shift 3 days ago. It's FANTASTIC. Taste is really good - tastes like a butterscotch ice cream to me. Love it!! They threw in a bottle of Monkey Business as well, definite Banana taste in that, but I haven't given it a good shot yet cause I'm loving Night Shift so much.
Today I got my other package with Mewlews Magic, Campfire and Blue Beard. Will be trying them all over the coming days!

I just got in my order from velvet cloud. The vanilla custard smells AMAZING.

The tobaccos smell spicy. Reminds me of a halo bella valente or a casa blanca type of spicy mexican pepper type smell. So keep that in mind if you are thinking about ordering them.

Absolute thumbs up for their customer service & the experience in general. Since the juice is mixed fresh I am going to let it steep for a few days before I try it out but I have high hopes.

Yeah, I think I raved about how good Julie was with my first order way back in this thread somewhere. She's got a way of making you feel like she thinks you're the most important customer they've got, which is great. Kind of freaks me out when I send an email in the middle of the night and she answers it in seconds, though. I'm not sure she sleeps. She may be a robot. A nice robot.

Anyway, I finally got around to trying the Watermelon Bubblegum that I've been afraid of for the last month or two... and, well, it's really not bad. I don't know that I'd throw it on my list of favorites, but it's pretty vapable. Not as sweet as I expected, and definitely more watermelon than bubblegum, but that's probably a good thing. If I had a complaint, it would probably be that it's a bit too subtle. Most watermelon bubblegum I've had slapped you in the face with the flavor (and the sugar), and this stuff is much more subdued than that. It's not bad at all, it just doesn't have the punch that a watermelon bubblegum would. I'm also just not a big fan of melon vapes in general, though, and this might be a good one for somebody who appreciates that kind of thing a bit more than I do.

One thing I can say in its favor is that, unlike a couple other melon juices I've tried before, this one doesn't take over my attys. I've got a couple here that, once they go in, just will not let go. Everything that goes into the tank for the next few weeks ends up tasting like melon. This one's kind enough to get up and leave when I tell it to.
