Thank you vcv I got 4 30ml bottles today and they have me 4 samples to try!! Excited to try them all. Peach tea, white beard, vanilla custard, and sour skittles. I have had skittles and vanilla before but hey I can't complain.

I got white beard yesterday but I still need to try it
Wow! That's awesome.
Don't rush. It'll taste like grass LOL. But I really like the earthy flavor, in a weird way.
I don't (intentionally) mix them all that often -- yet
Vanilla Custard tends to tone down whatever you're pairing it with.. Was mixing it 50/50 with Monkey Business, and still too fudgey for me
Honestly, there are so many potential combos that would probably be good, it's not even funny.. and even if you were to exhaust all 2-flavor combos, you could start doing 3 flavors, LOL
At some point I'll dive into mixing tobaccos with fruits & also with desserts.. bet there are some really good ones with those!
BTW, seems iClear 16's don't play as well with VCV tobaccos for some reason.. they work better in the 30's, at least in my experience
Also, re: your other post... Keep in mind that sometimes you just get an under-performing 16 (or any clearo, for that matter).. I'm using one right now.. Hasn't been used much until recently.. Not sure if it's the head, the rest of it, or both.. Doing a side-by-side comparison with a good one, and having similiar issues as yours: not as much vapor, heating up too much too quickly -- even sounds off (too loose & airy).. Just rinsed & dry-burned & reassembled everything tightly, then filled with a different flavor -- still the same.. It's the only one in that color (red), and bought it with some of the rest at the same place at the same time... At this price, and with as many as I have, bound to get a lousy one, heh... Going to switch out the head after the juice is gone, and try it with unflavored... If still relatively sub-par, then there's something wrong with the construction quality with the tank itself.. Thinking that part of the tank somewhere just isn't tight enough & might have to toss it
Like I said, it happens sometimes.. especially at only $5 a pop.. all my others have more than made up for it if it turns out to be garbage
I still need to order that and more white beard...I got distracted(Problems of a juice junkie) LOL
Is it just me, or does White Beard gunk up coils relatively quicker?
I swear I was dry-burning that thing forever...
Grass? That's just the extra flavor shot of cow urine..
Blue Beard definitely has more of the earthy flavor than White, IMO
And Burley? King of earthiness! I should break it out, since I'm having a beer right now
But Blue is certainly doing alright with it at the moment...
Shane: This is your 1st VCV tobacco, correct? Take a few toots now if you just want to see, but odds are you'll have to let it steep for a week or 3.. Probably have to spare a clearo during that time

I've had a LR 306 dripping atty from Empire Mods for like a month, haven't cleaned the thing once, no issues
Can't beat it for 5.99. I'm about to order like 10 more, can't imagine what I'd do without it.

I gotta try dripping some time..
Might be too lazy for it, though...

It's soo easy, I much prefer it. I'm too lazy to clean and dry burn and rebuild coils

I have the 501 long barrel from Empire Mods. They are great little dripping attys and they last for a really long time. I keep one on an ego style battery and a bottle of Night Shift close by at all times.

Yeah, but you have to keep squeezing juice in there.. Too much work...
Pretty sad, knowing that there's better stuff out there, but too lazy to bother with it, heh.. I just want to vape!
Heck, I don't even build my own coils..
Speaking of which, have you seen the Rip Trippers spoof..?

I don't have problems with White Beard gunking coils. Mewlews, Candy Bar and Campfire (the darker juices) are a different story. They aren't among my favorites though so I haven't vaped them in quite awhile.
I don't get any grassy notes from White Beard. Burley Beard, however, definitely has a pronounced grassy flavor and a funk that I found off-putting at first. Now I love it. I don't think there's another tobacco out there quite like it.
This evening I was too lazy be fooling with a dripper so I revived an old Mini Protank 2. I was even too lazy to make a coil for it, so I just did a quick cotton "tune-up" on a brand new stock head. Having gone through most of a tank of a roughly 50/50 blend of Vanilla Custard and Night Shift now, I've concluded that the flavor is NOT too subtle; in fact it's just fine. I could see this stuff being my late-night vape for a while.

White Beard was in the clearo that's been giving me troubles, so maybe it's the head, who knows, still have to experiment with that one.. But had to dry-burn it sooner than usual (like, VCV chocolate level) & for a looooong time
Anyway, my WB was way too grassy when I first got it, but that also tamed way down after about 2+ weeks..
And yeah, people should probably work their way up to Burley.. Might not be for everybody
Mine's been steeping for a couple weeks now.. Need to revisit it soon.. Was enjoyable when in the right mood, but I don't think it will ever become my #1 VCV 'backy..
I operate under the assumption that smaller toppers (MP2, iClear16) oftentimes just give better flavor.. sure there's some sort of physics-related explanation for it
VCV desserts have been falling out of favor for me lately.. Still enjoy Nutty Cookie, just not vaping it as often as I used to.. Also have a Vanilla Custard that's been steeping for over a month now that I haven't touched yet, and probably won't get around to it for another couple weeks.. smelling dern good, though -- like, a lot more intense than my last bottle..
Just been vaping the fruits & tobaccos & unflavored more these days
Anyway, welcome to the VCV Fan Club...
I'm too lazy to drip too, so I got a REO bottom-feeder. Makes dripping on the go soooooo simple! I love using the regular atties on it.......simple, no fuss, love the look, and Monkey Business tastes amazing in the LR 510 vs a mini Pro tank. Try it, Gato.......come to the dark side.

You forgot to put the
at the end of your post.. A Reo has been on my radar for a while..
Two things probably have prevented me from hitting the buy button:
1.) Can't enjoy different flavors all day when away from home like you can with clearos, unless you want to carry about a bunch of juice bottles
2.) Would actually like to use one 1st for a week or something
Maybe someday yet I'll be a'squonkin'!

I like how you described the differences. For me, White Beard is creamy; Blue Beard is more fruity and earthy; Burley Beard is grassy, earthy and down-right funky.
