What is the worst e-liquid that you've tried?

[donwuan]

Both my sis and I Recently ordered from Hopes e-liquids,,,, ry4, toffee, berry, coconut, vanilla...

I'm still trying to figure out ... went wrong with every one of the 8 bottles ordered,, they were rancid. Even my diy was better than this.

Pure acid, bitter but so damn sickly fake sweet. Horrid, horrid, vile nasty juice. I think it tasted like equal, like if you put straight up aspartame on your tongue.

Worst one by far, was berry berry good. More like very very wretched.

Eta, I didn't bin them, I still have them. It makes me appreciate my other bad juice. Lol

They are tied #1 with ecblends pepper like tobacco. Felt bad selling these off.

you know when I was still using cartos and 808

I thought that was very good on the prefilled

recently got it in juice in a T3 and I nearly threw up

I just received another "worst" yesterday.
555 Exotic by Backwoods Brew fresh from the mail is like vaping a Rose Bowl Parade float that has been rotting in a warehouse for a month, topped off with rancid peanut oil and High Karate... I will give it a shot in a few weeks but I have my doubts..

Hate to say it, and since the guy who runs the place is generally a decent guy, I'm not going to name names, but a local shop sells their own DIY juices, and they are simply awful. I've tried most of them, just hoping something.. just something accidentally came out good, but in the end, they use really cheap base that has a terrible hint of garbage flavoring (you can taste it in every batch, regardless of flavor, and they use cheap watered-down flavors, and not enough flavor.. so they all taste crappy as crappy gets. Some you can barely taste at all, and should just be labeled "garbage", "dumpster", "sewage treatment plant", etc.

I DIY and I will be the first to admit, my juices are not good enough to sell commercially, but I'd stack any of my DIY ADV juices against that crap any day of the week. What's the worst? I guess that would be their "root beer" flavor.. I'd rename it to "smelly wet sneakers with fungal growth and foot cheese"

I've had a few that are pretty nasty - TW Patriot Egg Nog, TW Red Label Ice Menthol, but they are positively exquisite compared to Enjuice's Brandy Alexander - seriously awful, actually has a mild taste of brandy alexander and would be ok were it not for the added catsick type flavour that completely dominates.

And just to balance things out i love the toffee apple from enjuice and the Orange Candy from TW's patriot range.

You know I am not a fan of backwoods brew I would not reorder from them although that's a personal preference

But you said you got it in the mail yesterday and on their site it recommends at least 7 day steep time
I know you said you would check out later but don't you think you should wait the steep time before you post it as a worst juice?

Regardless of what others say, I have found that if I find a juice totally unvapable from the mail, it usually doesn't magically transform into something remarkable later.. I get a real kick out of these guys on another thread telling everyone they need to let a certain brand sit up to six months and it will transform into a fantastic vape, but don't use it till then or you won't like it. Give me a freakin' break!

Are you talking about Ahlusion Rick's Request? Someone simply claimed it turned good after 6 months, but the general consensus seems to be that it's awful. I don't think anyone is recommending it

I agree with robin no buddy is recommending ricks request 1st

2nd Threads like this are for newer people looking for good advice on juice to try
there is so much misleading by folks giving a bad impression of good juice because they vape it out the mail
I would have tried a lot of juice quiker when I was new if I understood that was what was going on

As far as transforming happened many times
1 mom and pop famous 5 layer tasted really cheap at 1st if I had not seen reviews saying steep or knew about steeping
I would not have given this one a chance after 2 weeks totally changed 100% and was amazing but no coconut flav like there was supposed to be about 3 and half weeks in there it is

there are many examples

Like when I first tried juice over the cigalikes for the first time started with halo
got a bunch of dif flavs opened them out the mail and they were all nasty chemical taste

I emailed them they said well taste is subjective (probably why I hate that phrase to this day)
I said well they all taste the same with all the good reviews Ive seen I cant believe that would be the case
And they said everyone's taste is different

but a week later I seen some posts about steeping I tried it again and I was Shocked how could this be the same juice
I later found out its because the alcohol used in making them needs 24 hours to evaporate with Capps off

I I honestly see that every bad review of a good vendor when multiple juice is used
It always starts with just came in the mail yesterday or today
Its just not an honest review

And as One who have been misled by these type of reviews when I first started
Believe before some one starts publicly bashing a juice at least try the recommendations
and after that by all means please say all that needs to be said for all of us to know
the bad reviews are as important as the good just as long as its an honest one after recommended wait times

The thing is that no-one except the vendor should have to steep.

If the people who make the liquid know that it needs steeping for, say, two weeks before vaping then this should be done at their end before mailing it to the customer.

At a bare minimum any steeping requirements should be explicitly stated on the web site - but even that's not really good enough imho. It's a bit like selling a 12 year old single malt whisky and saying "keep for 12 years before drinking".

It should be sent out when it has matured, not before.

Edit: I realize I'd posted on this thread before saying that my worst was a knockoff Liqua. MY OPINION HAS CHANGED AND I NOW HAVE A NEW "WORST JUICE." Wahhh.

I just ordered a bunch of juices from VaporRenu (VaporRenew? FlavorWest? All the same thing, right?): Gummy Bear, Yumberry (Strawberry, raspberry, pomegranate), Strawberry Limeade, Extreme Ice, and Dragon Splash (dragonfruit, orange, pineapple). All at 6mg, 50/50.

THEY ALL TASTE LIKE I'M VAPING MEDICINE.

They all have this weird, sickly sweetness and chemical taste to them that I hate and it just lingers in my sinuses, ick. Strawberry Limeade, in addition, had the taste of vodka and/or tequila in it too. Ugh, and that was after a week and a half of steeping. Man, and their version of Extreme Ice was mad cold, which was cool (bahaha... get it? okay.) but after a while it gave me a headache and it tasted like I was vaping a tube of Colgate. Throat hit was decent at most for all but soon went away after half a dozen drags, but vapor was pretty good. That's all I can give them credit for.

Yeah, never again.

although im a fan of "most" of the MBV flavors i have gotten, theit RY4 was just plain bad. this was before i knoew there were so many variations of RY4's so after vaping the greatness that is Apollo RY4, i thought i had found a cheaper version with MBV, so i ordered 4 50ml bottles... no amount of steeping could have made that palatable "for me" tried cutting with PG/VG, tried adding flavors to it, but i could always taste a hint of black liquorice in it. i would rather circumcise myself with nail clippers than taste black liqouice...

tried to pawn it off to some friends that vape, but they al said it was nasty as well, so down the toilet it went, and thanks to the really big RY4 thread, i now know what to look for. MBV RY4 aint it...

A local B&M 'all natural' 100% VG watermelon and coffee. Tore my throat to shreds, 0, I mean 0 flavor. Steeping, standing on my head, devices, nothing helps these nightmares.

 

[MonicaRae]

1st time ordering I somehow found Chi-Town vapers I didn't know any better & thought this was what juice was supposed to taste like. Watermelon menthol, port menthol, the list goes on. They all have the same base chemically unsettling nasty taste to them. Only thing I use some of them for is to mix with others! Most are just taking up space UGH

So I can order it and wait for weeks for it arrive instead of ordering it, getting it right away and letting it sit a bit if it's not to my liking yet? I'd prefer to make that decision for myself.

Although, I do agree that it would be helpful if all vendors added steeping recommendations, if any, to the description.

 

[State Of Zen]

Fruity Juice Gum from Mt. Baker Vapors. I have also tried a few of their other flavors and didn't like them either. Maybe I'm just sensitive to whatever they use in them.

 

[leex1]

I might get some heat for these two, but Gorilla Juice from AVE and Smooth Criminal from Ahlusion. Tried it in everything cept in a RBA, and both did not impress me. Both steeped for about 2 weeks.

The Gorilla Juice tastes like what feet would taste like. Can't explain it, just not right for my tastes. Hoping Bobas Bounty isn't anything like this. Still steeping that one.

Smooth Criminal is just too subtle and I can't get much flavor out of it. Smells good though, just can't get any flavor when vaping it.

You know what when my son gets a new toy especially the more expensive one's
I don't think I should be responsible to put it together should be on the company

Am I going to wait till they change there ways ?

I just started vaping 100% VG juice recently. The first night the TH was super harsh. I was surprised because I thought with no PG it would be wimpy with no TH at all. Wrong! This stuff packs a wallop. I got used to the different throat/mouth feel in just a few days though. Flavor-wise, the stuff I bought was really full-bodied and tasty! It convinced me that you don't need PG if the juice maker knows how to craft a good juice.
