Yeah I run 100% vg in my vivi too. HHV's 100% vg is pretty thin but bobas does fine too.

Indeed, but it is too mild for me. If you don't like strong espresso like coffees, and something mild, caramelly and creamy, the Christy's Cap is good. I need a lot more punch in my coffee---I think of this one as "cappachino even a non-coffee drinker would like."
Gamel strikes me as the perfect smooth tobacco taste that newbies getting off analogs but still wanting something that tastes a little like their analog would love. I thought it was rather mild. I smoked full flavor American Spirit roll your own when I was on analogs, so this vape would never approximate that richness. I have no interest in my vape tasting like an analog so I probably won't buy this one again....or I might add some peach or apple to it. I thought I wanted that, but I can see now that I want to get OFF tobacco, not back on it. I think at the beginning though, it might be somewhat comforting to a new vaporer.
English Toffee. It's dark brown juice and tastes like that burnt toffee taste some people like. ("cooked butter"?) I would not attempt to put this thru a carto by itself. It might very well taste good added to some cake batter or cookie dough juice by the drop though. (Vape dudes No bake cake needed something like this, IMHO). It might taste good with a pudding, rice pudding, or tapioca juice. Or with a nut like tobacco juice.
Bees Knees, mild tobacco with a touch of honey under (or over) it. I don't like honey so this was not for me, but it seems like it could be an all-day vape for a lot of people. I can't imagine anyone finding anything about this juice offensive.
Boba's Bounty - graham cracker-- but a tad peppery or maybe something added for TH?. The peppery bothered me. SOme people taste fruityness in this juice, I sure didn't. It is complex, I can taste the cola too.
Irish Creme, but not like Baileys. Tasted more like a french vanilla liquor after dinner drink without much creaminess. Interesting though. Might keep this one around, or add to coffee vape here and there.
Caramel Kicker, another darker juice. Definitely caramel, and does have that "cooked" taste (more like making caramel at home in a cast iron skillet, not the krafts creamy caramel kind.) I don't like caramel so I can't comment on good or bad. Seems like it would be a carto plugger upper.
Massive Chocolate Mint - if you like dark chocolate, and mint, and not overly sweet, I can recommend this one. If you like sweet candy bars like Hershey's, then you won't like it. I think it is like a peppermint patty and not overly sugary at all.
Strawberry Cooler - didn't think I would like a fruit vape, this has a tad bit of underlying tobacco in it, unlike pure fruit vapes, but the strawberry is VERY fresh tasting and not overly sweet like you'd find on a strawberry shortcake concoction. I will keep this one. I might add some lime to it once in a while.
This may sound wierd, but when I think bobbas bounty and gorilla juice, the word "carbohydrate" comes to mind.
As someone who has gotten off the bread/cake bus in food, I am not surprised that people like these 2 vapes. I'm sure Twinkies would be a favorite, or donuts, or waffles. I"ve just completely lost my taste for *heaviness* on my tastebuds and can't take that stuff. (It's hard to explain, but anyone who has gotten off that bus knows what I mean....that "feeling full" sensation is no longer at all pleasant.
) I would say that these most popular AVE juices *may* appeal to that heavier carb taste-bud----and I think Ben may have hit on something.....next to cigarette addiction, people have the carb addiction, too? So this is being addressed by some of the "baked goods" type juices that seem so prevalent. I'm finding I appreciate lighter flavors ( EXCEPT in coffee vapes)
What else does AVE get right? There is absolutely no perfumey taste in any of the juices. No chemical taste either. That's a big plus for me. So is the 100% VG.
However, I will be one who changes up the tastes a little bit, to suit my own pallate.
Unusual Experience with Boba's?
I have some Boba's sitting in a tank with a Boge carto that was in the back of my juice box along with a few other forgotten tanks since I have been focusing on cotton and SS wick rebuilds. The juice is about four weeks old and I only vaped it when it arrive.
On my first vape when it was all of a day or so old..I only could taste graham cracker and some other mystery flavors. None determinable or memorable, just that it was interesting and that's it. There was no WOW factor, but I wanted to give it benefit of doubt so off to steeping it went.
Today, when I twisted the same tank/carto, which was still half full, on to my provari I had an unusual effect on the first two vapes. Right off the bat the flavor was..... candy grape. I did a double take and rechecked to make sure it was the same carto/juice. It was. Two more vapes and that grape flavor had disappeared back behind the graham cracker.
The only rationale I could think of here is that in the carto material, the juice some how settle and one of the added flavors, in this case candy grape, concentrated near the coil and presented itself.
Now when I vape it and try to look past that graham cracker taste, I can make out the grape flavor. Its more of the candy side of the candy grape flavor than the grape side if you know what I mean. Its very subtle, but knowing the flavor make it easier to recognize it.
So now that I put this thought in your head... do you see it?

Does anyone else get a cinnamon, raisin, oatmeal cookie flavor from Boba's?? It's killing me that I can't figure out what is in it!! LOL I find it incredibly intereting that it tastes so different to everyone. It definitely has a little spice to it... i hadn't thought of graham cracker before... Fresh Boba's and Gorilla Juice both have a real buttery smooth flavor that I LOVE!! And over time it gets a little spicy. Weird!
Who pulled this up? LOL. Man, I started this awhile ago, but hey, carry on. I hope you all find info that helps and I sincerely hope everyone finds juice that is perfect for them.
We should talk.
We should talk.
I see people are chomping at the bit to get some Boba's when AVE gets it back in stock next week. I just hope they made a big enough batch!As for me, I look forward to trying some other flavors of theirs, and also reordering some Flue Cured.

30 mL Boba's goes alooooong way for me, but I know if my favorite vendor were to go offline for awhile, I'd be quite antsy! I do sympathize with those who are either out or just wanting to try it already.
Just ordered 200ml of Boba's today, been out for a couple weeks. I've been steeping Vapor Station Tampa, Tennessee, Phoenix, Frisco, and Texas for 3 weeks now. Been adding different flavors to my BWB backo lately. Need some suggestions for tobacco flavors to try. I like to mix it up day to day. I already have lots of Mom&Pop's and Goodejuice. Johnson Creek, Highbrow, Halo, Bluemist, NLV maybe??? I love anything tobacco. Getting a bit tired of sweet ones though.
What is behind Boba's Bounty? Boba's crimes ....................... Sorry, I just had to *stops trolling now*
Sorry, I just had to *stops trolling now*
I am tied up right now, but I will address your question soon, okay? If you could make a list of those that worked for you and why, and those that didn't work for you and why (obvioulsy Boba's worked really well for you, LOL). That way, I could better assess which may work for you in the future.

200ml of Boba's would last me roughly 5 years.
I was going through a lot while vacationing this summer(8 ml a day). High voltage and big clouds day and night at the beach.
You said asses......
Seriously though, I will compile a list and we could even move it over to a tobacco thread. I think I'm on most of them. Thanks Mann...
