Aren't you coming up on 3 years one of these days?!

I knew that gb was no more. Thought you had a large supply in the vault.

Soon, about 3 months before you.

Yeah, Dusty....I thought you had a stockpile to last at least 6 months. How much do you vape, 15ml a day or something? lol

I did.. the sad thing is that I placed my last order with TV in July or August last year. When the news went live in December, I had only about 10 ounces left and they were not selling any more GB at the time. :(

As for how much I vape, it's more like 5 - 6ml a day, depending on what device I'm using.

Oh, I see. Must have been particularly painful for Geoff at TV. GB was his ADV wasn't it? Have you told him about your new blend?

Yes, it was his ADV too. No, I have not mentioned my blend to him because he's shifted over to Burmanii as his ADV.

I think Dusty is just covering his bases, by having MLV make his juice locally, so that he never runs on a short supply...

Not just locally buddy, Ian and Marie are a 10 minute drive away from me!

I don't want to drop in on them too often though, so I WILL be picking up stock a 1/2 litre at a time. ;)

Based on Dusty's "seal of approval" I got a 30ml of Dusty's Blend (Double Shot) - I rarely buy a new juice in 30ml since I'm fussy and hate ending up with 30ml of a juice I don't like. I did a quick test drip when I got it and actually did a happy dance. :) Then I forced myself to let it sit for a couple of weeks.

I started off by dripping it on an IGO L and have now moved onto filling a Protank with it. It is fantastic in both. The IGO is obviously stronger, but since I can't bring it with me when I'm out, the Protank works perfectly. It may mute the flavour a bit - but DB is an intense flavour and still comes through like gangbusters.

It's been at least six months or so since I've had the original GB, so I'm going from memory - but this is pretty close. I don't remember there being a strong rum base in GB, more fruity and the cinnamon was definitely more "in your face". That being said - I'm loving Dusty's Blend. I'm getting a strong rum/fruit base with the cinnamon - this is strong tasting juice, with some complex flavour combinations and I'm finding it slightly addictive.

I'm a finicky vaper, and tend to swap out juices a few times a day when I get tired or bored with the flavour. The problem with the cinnamon based juices is it seems to kill my taste buds for other juices and makes it hard for me to switch over to another juice after vaping the cinnamon juice. But I'm enjoying the DB so much, I'm really not wanting to switch out flavours anyways.

MLV is swamped with orders these days, so I'm seriously considering getting a 120ml of this stuff and I *never* order in bulk. :)

Dude, that is an awesome review, Thank you! You're pretty spot on with the Rum being a strong component of DB since I asked Ian and Marie to bump that component up. I'm a spiced Rum aficionado, so I had to have it that way and like I've said before, this is not the same as Geoffs Blend, but rather my tweaked version of what I used to love with my old favorite.

That being said, I still find Double Shot to be WAY too strong for me, but my buddy that used to vape Atomic Cinnacide as his ADV loves it. I'd say that users that were used to Geoffs Blend should only get the Single Shot unless you would like to get the Double Shot and "cut" it.

There have been a few folks that have tried DB at the GTA meets, including another local juice vendor who was slightly ticked that he had not come up with this juice first. :)

All the resulting reviews are very positive. I'm glad that other folks are enjoying DB as well.

Now I'm curious as to what a single shot tastes like in comparision. The DS is strong - but I'm not minding the strenth (and I usually vape mellow flavours). I may order a 30 of the single shot and see if it lets the rum/fruit stand out a bit more in comparision to the cinnamon. I do know that a triple shot would probably blow my taste buds into oblivion.

What I liked best about DB is that it didn't need to take as long as the GB to be vapable. I remember the GB nearly killed me when I first tried it and it took a couple of months of unintended steeping (I put it away and ignored it because it was so damn strong) to mellow it out and let the flavours really develop. Once they did, it was an awesome juice.

Thanks, Dusty, for working with MLV to develop this one. I'm really impressed with the results.

See, when I first started working on this with MLV, I never took the Double or Triple shot into consideration. My goal was to come up with a juice that I liked in it's "regular" mode. So, the single shot is what I had meant it to be. Don't forget to report back with your findings. ;)

I'd love to try this, but it seems that the vendor is one of many who accepts Interac and other "Canadian specific" ordering methods only, which does me absolutely no good at all.

I'd be spreading the wealth to a lot more vendors if they'd start accepting plastic. **sigh**

It has to do with Canadian regulations and Credit Card companies not supporting juice companies that sell "Tobacco" products over the internet. Some of them do accept Paypal payments though.

MLV also supports Paypal as one of their options. When you go through their checkout process, you come across this: "If you would like to pay via paypal, select cash and let me know you wish to pay via paypal for instructions.."
