Lol- I've tried ten flavors from there and they all tasted like different intensity levels of the same chemical. I almost stopped ordering juice online because of it. Now I'll only order something online if I've tasted it before. Even inexpensive juiceA figure 10, 30 ml bottles is a hundred dollars down the commode.

I'm in trouble with this Apple Pie Ala Mode I bought when checking out the new B & M that opened last week. I bought it Wednesday and won't make it through the weekend with what's left. It's mind blowing. Fresh golden brown pie crust on the intake and then a warm brown sugar apple flavor on the exhale. I believe they get it from The Vapor Hut.

Does the b&m have a website?

Its taken me a long time to come to terms with this but ......Grants Vanilla custard. After waking up at 3am to over pay for a bottle and hearing the rave reviews it was just meh to me. To be fair, I think i just dont like custard vapes and there isnt a custard vapen ive tried that i like. I just felt a huge sense of sadness when i took my first hit from the taifun and wasnt BLOWN away

I finally got a bottle of well-steeped Boba's and hated it. Tasted exactly how it's described, but not my cup of tea. Luckily it was easy to trade off.

I was sampled Boba's at the start of my vaping journey by one of those "You can't do this without the most popular expensive brand name stuff" people. Tasted awful to me, but it wasn't the juice's fault. After some trial and error I found I just really don't like tobacco juices in general no matter where they come from.

It may be something in their specific flavoring or base that doesn't jive with me, but I cannot stand anything by Virgin Vapor. I've tried several in widely different flavor profiles and they all were too strong, even harsh, and no amount of steeping could get rid of the alcohol smell and taste. But I know there are people who love them and vape nothing else. Strange.

+1 ...when I first started vaping I spent WAY too much money trying out all the "talked about" juice companies...VV always no matter what had a strong alcohol/perfume-esque smell/taste. Not fun.

I have yet to find a juice I can finish a 30 ML bottle of, even 15s.. I have a large stash of half vaped juices. :/

I had a similar experience till I discovered Trippy Drips on Facebook...vanilla envy and Budda cake are my ADV. I get 50mls of both, 6mg and 0mg nic. So yummy.

Coval Vapes. I ordered the sample pack. The dessert and cereal flavors (Strawberry Creamcake and Crunchberry) taste like the smell of wet cardboard to me. Churro is pretty good, but I get the same flavor from a mix of MBVs cinnamon roll/butter pecan. PBB Cream has some type of alcohol taste to it. And Raspas was just a peppery throat hit, no flavor.

I'm sure I'll get jumped on for this. I tried 5 different flavors from Ahlushion and the only taste I got from them was perfume. All you Ahlushion fans, please don't ask me what flavors, this was 6 months ago. And don't tell me what I should try. If I didn't like 5 of them I wouldn't be trying any others with an open mind.

Ok..so..I know I am representing Nicoticket with my banner but I have to say, I wasn't into any of their juices. CLS was really great for about a week but that was the first week I started vaping. Within that week I ordered CB, and 30 mL CLS, Betelgeuse, and Frenilla. They all had a very strange flavor that made them un-vapeable to me. Although, Kent Brooks is a true gentleman and I really credit his amazing customer service to what kept me on the vaping train at first (I really wanted to give up!) and I wish him and his business all the best! But even after a couple months of steeping all of their stuff has a flavor that I can only describe as "grassy". I know this is a total subjective thing though because there are so many people that love his products to death.

Another that I am currently underwhelmed by is Churro by Coval Vapes. Everyone raves about it but to me it is just "meh". I almost like MBV's cinnamon role more. The Coval has a funny taste. I might just need to let it steep. Hopefully because it wasn't very cheap.

Malty Toffee is another "meh" but I still enjoy vaping it when I feel like just inhaling some nearly flavorless juice :)

I tried Mother's Milk for the first time a few days ago and it didn't knock my socks off at all, even compared to other strawberry and creams that I have tried. Glad I went to a shop and didn't order a bottle blindly like I usually do.

You should try Beantown Vapor's "Oh-Face". IMO that is one of the few juices that has lived up to its hype. It is strawberry cream candy at its best! It leaves an aftertaste in your mouth that is mind-blowing!
