I just ordered two bottles of WTA. 24mg is kind of scary to me but 12 mg was much worse right now. I ordered RY4 WTA and Beetle juice WTA. I believe I like the sweet but not too sweet with a taste of tobacco. I loving Peanut Butter & Jelly from the local shop because it does have a tobacco taste along with another flavor they sell and it is sweet with tobacco. Anything to let me leave the analogs behind right now.

The order probably won't be here before Monday. I'll keep enjoying what I have and will eventually alternate. Oh I did check out the ejuice and all I have is 16 mg. I was wrong, they don't sell 18. That may be part of my problem, but WTA has got to help.

Thank you all!

Let me know what you think. I will say if you like the WTA and you don't find the ml you want (they sell 12, 18 and 24mg), it could be they are out of that particular ml. And they are very responsive to requests. For instance, I wanted the Gecko in 24mg and they did add that. Prior, it was only 12 and 18mg. I still need a higher ml even a year later. Hope you like it!

I will let you know next week. I should be able to tell if it is working for me in a few days of using it. I have the faith that it will help tremendously. I am so grateful you brought this to my attention! I must remember they take requests too. My plan is once I kick the analogs with the 24mg, then I need to ask for 18mg and start working my way down to 12. I think that will be a long process though.

I plan to see if I can alternate the WTA with the flavors I like from the local store. I am going to run by there today and pick up their highest mg, which is 22 I believe.

Thanks so much for the information and everyone that has responded, you are all helpful!

If storing juice for a long time, more than 6 months, I put it in the refrigerator in a ziplock bag..otherwise I leave it out in a drawer (no light)...nic strength below for those just quitting analogs..i went from camel full flavor analogs to 18mg nic vapor with no problems..

Nobody knows, really. :) Eliquids do deteriorate with time, their taste changes, the nicotine degrades and loses its potency eventually, but 2 years is usually considered OK. It if tastes OK and does the job, vape it. If if doesn't, throw it away. :)

And store them in a dark and cool place--light and oxygen are your enemies.

Just like fine wine!! If the shop wouldn't sell you a higher nic level then I would find another shop. That's like a liquor store only selling you beer because they don't think you are ready for booze. I found that 24mg juice was my sweet spot. If the shop had only sold me 16 I probably wouldn't have made it past the first day. You have to be able to find what works for you. We are all different and our bodies react differently to nic levels. Don't let the uneducated deter you from enjoying what you enjoy. The internet is full of choices if you don't have another local distributor. Hope you find what is right for you.

BTW......when you buy from a local that mixes on site, let it sit on a window sill for about a week to help steep the flavors. I wouldn't let it sit there any longer than that. The UV and heat from the sun help bring it together and taste like it was intended. Then move it to a cool dark place.
