I Think I'm in Love . . .

Oh my goodness, I just opened up my first order of VR juices today (just shy of 3 weeks old -- which is 1 week less than I usually steep!) -- and OH MY GOODNESS!

I got 3 KPB juices: No. 7 (not tried yet), Vanilla Blend (smoooooth yummy), Peachwood (AWESOME), and VR threw in a sample of Maplewood -- which just may be my favorite of them all!

(Thank you thank you thank you for the MAPLEWOOD!!! )


As I love good tobacco vapes, I am delighted to have finally tried VR ... just wish I hadn't waited so long!

And now I find you have added an Amaretto to your offerings . . . OH MY GOODNESS!

I. Will. Be. Back.

Personally ordered a sample of the Minestotta Menthol. Menthol was the only thing missing from my arsenal right now. Dripping atty now permanently set aside for that only. Good thing I tried the No.7 and plain premium first. :p
One of the more creamier menthols I've had. Minty at the end, slightly peppery. Not bad, and I don't like menthol. Gotta wait for the juices to warm up from the cold before I can acccurately review.

How do they make their tobacco flavors? absolute? steep? natural/artificial flavorings? After a couple years it seems like I have tried every "flavoring" - it's those flavorings exclusive to a vendor that intrigue me... heard a lot of positive about vr...

I'm not sure if you ever got your answer (I didn't read the whole 5 pages) but I can tell you that all of Dave's tobaccos at VR are naturally extracted. He told me himself (it's in their thread somewhere). Hope that helps! Been vaping since June of last year and there's still nothing that tops the Kentucky line IMHO.

My husband stumbled across Vermillion River the first week we were vaping, and that was where our first juice order came from... and the #7 was, by sheer happenstance, one of the first few sample bottles we got.

Well, I went through that. Then I went and ordered more. It's now an all-day vape for me, only rivalled on occasion by their KY Amaretto. I haven't found one of their flavors I dislike, actually... although their maple's a bit strong for me, and while I am very enthusiastic about the taste of their Butter Rum, it's a bit potent. :)

I can't wax enthusiastic enough about #7, though. Definitely my #1 flavor.

Just ran out of Vanilla Blend...I'm so glad I can buy it locally.

Anyone else a fan of the caramelized cappuccino? My latest bottle of it seems to be much less "caramelized" than usual. :(

Next time leave a note asking for a little more caramel flavor. Dave will usually make little customizations like that. I know that for the cafe coffee, he'll adjust the cream and sugar to your liking. So awesome!

Too funny!

I had some around (Kentucky blend, applewood and vanilla blend), samples I had forgotten I ordered several months ago so just got around to trying them. I immediately put in another order for the Kentucky and Vanilla...I can't believe I waited so long either LOL!

I ordered a sample pack from VR and the number seven was one of them. All six are wonderful, but I've found myself rationing the # 7 blend. I plan to pour my last ml or so in my stardust this weekend. VR Premium Blend (+ flavor variations) and BWB Virginia have been a godsend for this recent ex-smoker.

It's funny that you mention the VR Premium and BWB Virginia. They have very obvious differences, but the flavor profiles are very similar, and they give me a great sense of tobacco satisfaction. They both taste how I always wanted my analog cigarettes to taste, but never did.

I have to give a quick shout out to the KY Amaretto and Vanilla blends I received with my #7. Both of them are outstanding, and I might even prefer the Amaretto over the #7. Uh oh!

Ooh yummy, I've got 30ml of Amaretto (along with 60ml of my Maplewood) steeping right now! :) :drool:

Nice!
The Maplewood is great as well. It tastes like the Premium, but the caramel has been pulled out and oooey gooey maple syrup was added in its place. Good enough to slather all over you pancakes!

I really like the Maplewood, but to me it doesn't taste like maple syrup. It tastes like the glaze on a maple bar (which is to say, really good).
