Ok I'm about 3 orders in here with Don. Was considering maybe another vendor but every time I try a different vendor I can't help but think I should have ordered from BWB.

I'd like to try something new but want some input. Here's what I've tried so far and my opinions:

Applewood- Best vape ever made. Already gone through about 120 ml. Will be ordering no doubt.

Casablanca- love it but not for all day, might get 15 ml.

Adirondack- Very good. Similar to applewood but without the apple or cedar flavor. Probably won't be re-ordering because I might as well just get the applewood.

Exotic 555- This is the only one I don't care for. It's got like a lemon pledge taste to it?? Maybe some ginger?

I'm considering the following: Mango, Cherry tobacco, or just some regular backo. Is the regular backo just super plain? Any other suggestions of stuff that is must try?

Well... First of all I wouldn't call any of Don's brews "super plain". I would say he likes to keep things under control and that he doesn't go ape chit on crazy flavors that are over the top or icky sweet. IMHO I think you will like the Backo for a no frills solid tobacco base juice. I like the TH and my wife has pretty much locked in on Applewood and Backo but can manage (unlike me with Casa) to pull herself away from them to enjoy some of Don's other fine brews.

I'm not a fruit flavor kinda guy but Don's Mango is OMG goodness for those times when I want to change it up a little. And if you can ever manage to get your hands on his RY4 then buddy.... you will be hooked.

I would however suggest you buy a 55 gal drum of Casa and just send me the remaining 49.996 gallons for being a nice guy. ;) :)

the Virginia is one of my favorites. its a great tobacco flavor with a tiny bit of sweetness (malty?) and great TH. its my all day vape. that and the 555E. i just cant put em down. :) :)

i also really like the honey flue. the honey flue nut doesnt taste similar IMO. same as the 555E and 555 dont taste similar to me. the 555 seems to have a corn chip taste to me! i know thats weird but its strangely addicitve. has anyone else noticed this? *disclaimer: i might be crazy lol

The 555 does have a corn chipness to it in a way. I couldn't ever really describe it but I think that is pretty close. It is nicely nutty though and does have a slight sweetness to it. I didn't like it at first but now that it has steeped for a couple weeks it is nice.

Honey flue and honey flue nut, the honey part does taste a little different on these two. Seems the same honey but maybe a little sweeter on the honey flue nut.

My absolute favorite is BWB 555 Exotic. The more it steeps, the better it gets imo. I taste very freshly roasted peanuts, very complex and rich. It's my all day vape now.

I also recommend the BWB Root Beer....I need more. DH loves BWB Virginia. Malty is very good as well as Applewood. One that needed to steep for me is Honey Flue. Now I really love it....can taste the honey. Next I want to order Honey Flue Nut.

Does anyone know how long BWB Cherry tobacco needs to steep? Mine is about 3 weeks old and I can't taste any cherry at all. Maybe it's just my old former smoker taste buds....dunno.

I have a lot of Don's juices and I'm very happy with them. Steeping really does bring out their true flavors.

I ended up with some applewood of course .....since don was out of the casa...i decided on three new flavors

cherry tobacco, strawberry and mango.....will report back with opinions in due course

also, do the fruit flavors require or benefit from steeping or only the tobacco ones?

The fruit ones don't need much steeping, give it a week and it should be at its prime. The cherry tobacco, in my experience, took 2-3 weeks for there to be a synergy between the cherry and tobacco, but when that happens it is SO fricken tasty. I hope you enjoy it.

im so glad im not crazy! my tastebuds totally hone in on that corn chip flavor. i couldnt get over how much i felt like i was vaping an empty taco shell. which is fine, i love tacos. and BWB. :D
