Just got my first order in two days ago. Nightshift was great out of the bottle, but I hope more of the coffee comes out. The vanilla custard is iffy and light on taste, but I also put it in my ....ty clearo. Got summer sweet as a sample and like it a lot too. I think I'm gonna give the flavors a week or two to steep and then try them. I see the potential but I was expecting a bit more flavor right away lol.

No prob.. just trying to help out others a little, like others here at ECF have helped (and still help!) me along the way...


Yeah, that's weird they listed them as bottom-coil, probably an oversight in their copy & paste template.. they're definitely top-coil.. the hanging wicks sort of give that away, LOL


Like I mentioned, they're great for having a bunch of them when you're still trying to find your groove in the juice department... inexpensive, good quality & performance, great flavor & easily portable.. You can taste different juices side-by-side quickly & easily without having to wash out more expensive toppers every time you want to change flavors -- you can save that part for later on in your vaping journey :D


The original iClear 30 isn't bad, either.. doesn't hold much more juice (can't fill it to the 3ml line), but I think gives a slightly harder hit & a little more vapor... The swivel tip is nice, which helps a little more performance-wise, but is also metal... And will run you like $11-$13 each, LOL... They're nice enough, & a little different (both good & bad) compared to the 16, but also not sure it's worth it at more than twice the price

That said, I've got a handful of those :laugh:


Okay, okay.. back to VCV... ;)

Your right back to VCV

Well I kind of lied to everyone here....

I said I was going to wait until I get my ice beard 12mg nic and see what sample I get before I place another order....well I couldn't wait I just placed another one lol.

So I just order 4 bottles 15ml/12mg of:
Harvest berry
Strawgawb
Vanilla custard
Night shift
I also asked for a sample of either white beard or peach tea..we'll see. I figured if I gave them 2 flavors I want to try there is a better chance of them giving me one that I mentioned...maybe? Lol

I just couldn't wait...I wanted to use the Presidents' Day code while it still worked and I knew if I waited any longer it might not be active. I got 4 15ml bottles for $37.50 with free shipping so I didnt feel too bad about making the order.

Do you guys reccomend steeping any of the flavors I just purchased?? I have been reading more reviews about vcv and a lot of the members really like the way they taste but rave about them after they steep. I just wonder how much of a difference it really makes. I know if you go back in this thread quite a ways there is a picture of 2 bottles that someone posted and one is pretty fresh and another bottle that has been steeping for weeks. The color turned from a light amber to a dark dark brown. Pretty crazy, that makes me one to let a bottle steep and see if there is a big taste difference.

I have been letting a bottle of virgin vapor steep for a week now and I can't taste any change...still tastes and smells off to me

Short answer: Yes!
Long answer: Nothing wrong with trying FOOB, if you like it, vape on!! If not, Keep Calm & Let Steep!
Harvest Berry & Stawb-Gwab tasted a little soapy to me FOOB, week or two steep should do.
Vanilla Custard was decent FOOB, but gets creamier every time I try it, especially after two+ weeks or so.
Night Shift was also good FOOB, but also develops more with time.

Thanks for the info!!

I got my order of ice beard with 12mg nic today and it's pretty darn good. It took me a little while but the more I vape it the more the flavor comes out. And I'm really really impressed with all the vapor it produces.

I also got the sample of strawgawb I asked for and it's absolutely awesome!! It tastes so good and it's packed with flavor. I just can get over how much vapor vcv produces. I was worried one of the 5 flavors I ordered last night was going to be my sample I got today and it was but now I'm so glad I did order that 15ml of the strawgawb. I can easily see that being my all day vape.

Thanks again for the steeping advice...I hope I can hold back and actually do it lol

Coupon code! I immediately thought of you and how you shoulda waited one more day :p

It's all good I was still able to use the 25% off Presidents' Day code and I got free shipping because my order was $50(before the coupon). So I made out pretty good, just don't tell me it was for like 50% or I may feel differently lol

You're welcome. Filled a 3.5ml v-fate with some ice beard after dinner tonight!! Great stuff.

Once you build a nice stock of VCV juice, the steeping thing gets easier!! Order ahead!

What's "FOOB" ? Fresh out of the box/bottle?

well thanks for the heads up, last night I placed another order for 75ml of liquid using the President's Day code but I don't get a free shipping option. All of my VCV orders have been over $50 and I pay shipping each time.. hmmm :confused:

I believe on the last page before you click place order you can select free shipping.

the drop down menu only had one option when I checked out, USPS First Class. I just made a "test" cart since reading your reply and added $65 worth of liquid and it does show the free shipping option first in the drop down menu... I wonder what I did the last time lol

whoops? :oops:

This one is 25% off, too.. Seems that's been their max discount for every sale going back a while now


Did you join their email newsletter yet? That's how you find out about all the sales.. The sign-up is in the lower righthand corner at their site

If you did sign up recently, I think it might take a week or two for their email list to update

I did sign up for their email newsletter and I got the last Presidents' Day email...not sure why I didn't get this one?

The new code and the we need your help is also on their Facebook page

I also think after you place an order it signs you up for their newsletter also

Steeping can absolutely make a big difference..

Some worth mentioning off the top of my head are White Beard, Catherine the Grape & Nutty Cookie... their flavors developed over time (a few days to a few weeks) into something much richer, deeper & more complex

Steeping is not a myth! :vapor:

That's good to know. Like I said I will try my best to let them sit for a little while but I can't make any promises lol. I also mentioned in an early post here on this thread someone had 2 bottles of the same ejuice from vcv, the steeped one was much much darker then the fresher one. It was dark brown compared to a light amber. I'm definetly a believer on that.

The mail man likes to take about a week to deliver my vcv anyway so that is a little bit of time it gets to steep before I get it
