I haven't read the previous 100 pages, so take this as a quick FWIW first impression:

I'd never heard of Velvet Cloud Vapor until I came across some at a Kiosk in a mall yesterday. I was looking for some low nic (for me means 6mg) juice to vape late in the evening, and this place had several Velvet Cloud flavors available for sampling. Unfortunately, the the only thing they had in 6 was a 120ml bottle of the Vanilla Custard and I wasn't ready to commit to that. But after sampling I bought a bottle of Vanilla Custard in 0 and a bottle of Night Shift in 12 because they'd complement each other. So now I'm sitting here dripping them alternately into an Igo-L. The combination is very pleasant. Neither flavor is overpowering, in fact I wonder if they might be too subtle for anything short of a dripper or a kayfun..

Dripping is the best with VCV - all their tobaccos and dessert flavors are so warm and juicy in a dripper. Yumm!

I saw Lushtrucker's earlier! :banana:


Anyway, anything catch anybody's eye from all this so far..?


I'm surprised I've seen Ice Beard go through only a few times..

It's a good juice, just wondering if people would rather get away from a menthol tobacco.. you know, since they have that option with vaping..

Fruits & desserts seem to be a lot more popular than the tobaccos, from what I've seen..


Vanilla Custard has to be their #1 best-seller..


Just saw: Brazil & the Netherlands representin'! :w00t:

I have White Beard, Blue Beard, and Caramel Tobacco. Haven't tried Ice Beard or the Vanilla Tobacco's (trolling for juice if anyone wants to send a sample).

Right now I have Campfire in the Cage Tank with Sophia. I'm testing bamboo wick and it's a winner so far. Really liking this combo of rig + liquid.

I haven't sent your package yet, if I can find a small bottle I can send you some VT. It's in 12 though.

+1
Getting an Igo-w pretty ruined all of my other toppers!
I will use my IBT's for road trips and such, but my V-Fate just don't cut it anymore!
PTII is pretty good with a micro coil and cotton though.

Can't wait to load some VCV in my Zenith V2 that's on pre-order!

Caramel Tobacco is still my favorite out of the tobacco selection.
I've yet to try it, but I've got some on a plane right now! :banana:

I think this is one of The Final 4 I might end up liking..

Also seems like it's a fairly popular tobacco, according to VCV Stalker App™...


I haven't really liked any tobacco flavor yet.

Of the 4 I've had, I think they're good -- for what they are..

Even had some re-orders of Ice & White (Burley & Blue were just one-shot deals)..

The thing with vaping is, an ex-smoker is no longer bound to only the taste of tobacco, which they had been tasting for however long.. But now they can vape new flavors, like all sorts of fruits & desserts & beverages?? Which is part of the reason why I think those are more popular..


On VCV Stalker App™, oftentimes you'll see the tobaccos grouped in orders, which perhaps means that those appeal more to only a certain sub-set of vapers...

Do you remember what state you saw Ice Beard?
 
I completely agree with VG blends having Throat hit. I am an evil person because I like vapor. I am not a west coast fill the room lung hit guy but I just like to see a nice plume appropriate to the way I am hitting my mod. I was using heavy nicotine to get throat hit on all VG juices and I have also found that quality VG blends can give good TH. So I am converting from 25ml and even 36ml in some juices down to 12 and 18. I have a lot of juice because I buy a lot of a juice when I like it so I need to get more of the same liquids in a really low Nic level to even them out which saves me some steeping time.

Sorry, sir, but that is NSA classified information..


Hang on, let me check my spreadsheet... :D



Hey, did anybody see mine go through?

People with their piddly 7-flavor orders.. They got nothin' on me! :laugh:


I seriously needed to replenish my stock..

Plus I'll be hitting zero-nic next week.. I need to make this transition as easy as possible with a boatload of flavors...

Yeah, I've used that little trick before..

It does, indeed, save on some steep time!

I came from smoking cherry flavored pipe tobacco cigars, so maybe that's why I'm not a big fan of the tobacco line.

Ever try mixing Harvest Berry with Burley or Blue?


Not sure if that would get you exactly what you'd be looking for, but probably your best bet for that...

I have some fairly steeped harvest berry now, and a sample of burley that is even older. I guess I could try mixing them up. Honestly I'm not looking to match the flavor. I had one the other day to celebrate a crash free weekend at the track, and tossed it before I finished it.

As I've said before, Burley is, well, burley! Sometimes the fruits are too much for me. Mix the two and boom!!
Currently vaping Summer Burley Sweet Beard now!

Summer Beard! :D

With 13 flavors on their way, many of which are either new for me or haven't had in a while, I'll probably end up getting back into some more mixing soon.. And I'll be able to do it strictly to taste, as everything is zero-nic which makes things easy...


I mixed them 1:1 the burly just over powers the hb. Oh well. This burley was a sample, and the hb wasn't a favorite either. I'll still vape it, but might wait until my unflavored comes in and cut it down some.

Yeah, the tobaccos do that.. You could do a 4:1, yet still taste a lot of tobacco...


Anyway, it sort of surprises me that Summer Sweet is pretty popular, per VCV Stalker App™

Harvest Berry is really popular.. Obviously not sure what volumes people are buying it in, but it has to be #1 or #2 in terms of ordering in the fruit category...
