If only they offered it by the gallon!

I think it's safe, but if they ever drop Catherine, I'll be sobbing uncontrollably for weeks.. :(

According to Stalker App, Peach Tea & Sour Skittles would probably go first...

Anyway, my VT was shipped 1 hour after I ordered it, per VCV & USPS.. 1 hour! :banana:

No way, Sour Skittles is awesome and really the only "fruit" vape from VCV that doesn't have the increased throat hit problem. Wish I could order VCV without the distilled water, maybe I should ask them.

uuuuhhhfff...Sour Skittles is the worst. I've tried it on two separate occasions and both times it tasted like shampoo to me and a couple friends.

Interesting about the TH.. I think that's more of a flavoring thing.. CtG has always done that to me a little (but I wouldn't consider it a problem for me).. Then again, I've read that H2O can provide some extra TH, as well, which could tip the scales in your favor.. Wouldn't hurt to ask, anyway, especially if you bought them in larger quantities...


Nah, I like SS, too, despite its relative mildness..

But according to what I saw on Stalker App, that & Peach Tea were the least popular fruit vapes -- just as VT, CP & CB weren't very popular in their respective categories...

I believe VCV axing some flavors is a good chunk of a popularity contest.. They probably also take any potential flavor overlap into consideration, whether it's existing or in the pipeline...


Speaking of which, I think Caramel Swirl is next in line of getting the ax for desserts, and possibly Nutty Cookie or even Maple Mountain (but MMB was more popular than I thought it would be)..

As for the tobaccos, I could see Caramel Tobacco getting chopped to make room for something else.. Ice doesn't do all that well, either, but getting rid of their only menthol tobacco would be crazy for a juice-maker..

None of those flavors did all that well, relatively speaking, on Stalker App.. And if/when any of these new seasonal flavors make it to a more permanent status, I could see them bumping off any of the above if VCV needs more room...


Unflavored isn't all that popular, either.. But keep in mind that it wasn't on the main page until recently, that the smallest size is 120, it's a fairly unique offering, and I'm sure it's wildly easy & profitable for VCV.. :D

Maple Mountain Breakfast and Caramel Swirl would not be missed. I love Nutty Cookie and Caramel Tobacco. Catherine is the one other VCV fruit I can vape without issue and it's quite good after some steeping. I think the TH is more of a flavoring thing too. But I'm finding I prefer my 100% VG without the distilled water, it's smoother to me, and throat hit is not my thing.

They say they add a couple drops of distilled water... I don't think that the water is for throat hit, it's to reduce the viscocity of the liquid.

Distilled water thins it out and brings some throat hit. I've seen vendors stating this, at one time I thought that was even on the VCV website. I've been running VCV against TVK which is thicker and the TH difference is noticeable.

I hate to say it but this has been the case for me a few times with VCV with different juices. Lots of inconsistencies in flavor depending when I order.
I've steeped bottles for months but no improvement in flavor. If it arrives weak in flavor, it will stay weak. :(


Finally, and this is probably a long-shot, but it is possible.. You might have just gotten a bad, weak batch... Out of all the flavors & bottles & orders I've gotten from them (vaping VCV exclusively since January -- and I vape a lot :D), I did get one obviously noticeably weak batch of Catherine the Grape... There was barely any flavoring in it, even after letting it steep for over a month... That one bottle represented less than 2% of all my VCV juices, so it is pretty rare... And I've yet to experience that again, even with subsequent orders of CtG...

I guess one's mileage may vary...

Looks like I got some really fresh stock this time, has anyone seen campfire this clear?
bottle on the left is less than a month old.

I didn't get the sample of mmb that I requested, but they did double my chocolate pudding to a 30ml

Which flavors? Nic strength? Any patterns?


And I've had a mild Vanilla Custard before.. But let it steep, and it only got better & stronger...

The lower the nic, the less/lighter color there will be...

(Now that I think about it, that's probably what's up with that vape shop photo from earlier...)
