viking vapor - no throat hit?!!

[mezzio]

sorry, dont know where to post this.

I got a huge shipment in from viking vapor today. Out of 25 bottles, 14 were excellent, 5 were tolerable, and 6 were just horrible. theyre all cheap trial sizes, so getting some bad flavors doesn't bother me... thats why i bought so many, to taste them all!

but my question is... does anyone else who has bought this find that there is little to no TH? I ordered everything with a 10% VG mix in 24mg nic... but there is nothing! is there a possibility he messed up the and maybe did 10% pg instead? or is this just the way their juice is?

Thanks!

Interesting, anybody get a TH from their straight PG Liquid?

I just got about 14 to try yesterday...some are pg and a couple are mixed 90 pg/10 vg. I've only tried 4 and the pg has fair TH on my 510, the vg mix (coffee, which is really pretty good) has no TH on a 901.

Awesome no TH even w/ decent ammount of nic? I have to give these guys a shot sometime.

I got TH from Viking, though I smoke menthol which normally gets a good TH. I have to admit I did not like Vikings juice, I found it a little too sweet and minty but I did get a TH.

Kat...I'm using 18 mg and there just isn't a lot of TH. Like I said, I've only used 4 flavors so far...coffee, bavarian creme, cherry smoke and hawaiin (sp?) mesquite...opps 5 flavors and apricot. Do not like the hawaiin mesquite - it actually has a Liquid Smoke after taste that is just weird! The other flavors are ok, just not great. I have hope though for the other 10 or so flavors I've got! Viking's prices are really good.

prices are great, i love the cherry smoke, kuluah & cream, and coffee... the flavor is awesome, its just the TH just isn't there. so from the sounds of it, it goes true with all of vikings juice... just no TH... does this even hold true with 100%pg?

Hoosier made a suggestion on one of the threads about adding a drop or two of everclear to increase the throat hit. Well, I just had to try it. So I got an empty bottle and put in some of the flavors i really liked the taste of and put in a drop or two of everclear and BOOM! Major TH! Do just a drop or two at first and sample then add to your liking. Really worked for me. I must admit, I have read alot of Hoosiers posts and the guy knows his stuff. Anyway....you might want to expieriment with it. I was to the point that I was going to trash a bunch of juice I had bought. But not now. A couple of my tricks I have found out is mixing a little red bull juice or atomic fire ball gives a great added kick, flavor and TH too. Easy on the atomic fireball. It doesn't take much.....just my two cents. Thanks for the tip Hoosier!......JB

There has been some talk about capsaicin but I've only seen the extract in vegetable oil so I would think that wouldn't be good. Also have heard adding menthol crystals can add some *pow*. I can't vouch for any of these since I dislike TH and wouldn't do anything to create/increase it.

This is a bummer. I just ordered some Viking Vapor juice because they got rave reviews and the selection is awesome! I too am looking for more TH and went with the highest the offer-26mg-since the highest I've used is 18 which is good at first and then the TH peters out. I got one mixed and one full PG. Hopefully it won't be as disappointing as you mentioned.

I just ordered some too. Based on the reviews.
I ordered menthol,kahlua and cream, butter rum, raspberry(ice) asked to add mint/menthol flavor to it, saltwater taffy, cherry smoke and a few others. I don't like a strong throat hit, not one to make me cough. But I do like a little sumtin sumtin!
