One Hit Wonder- Milkman

I didn't contact them actually. Because it's happened to me with so many juices before. Where I don't like it straight away but after a few weeks it's a completely different taste
 
Shame @Chezzig, its awful when you are disappointed in a juice you were so eager to get! I agree with @Deckie though, taste is extremely subjective. I love Milk Lab Frappe, would have bought Deckie's leftovers anytime, but I bought 3 x 100 ml bottles of it last week! As much as I love vaping, its very frustrating to find the juices you like, as you end up with a drawer full of juice you are never going to be able to stomach. But hey, when you find I juice you do like, its heaven! On the plus side, you might get a dripper much sooner than you anticipated! As I mentioned to you before, a dripper makes a huge difference to the flavor. In my opinion, some juices are meant for tanks and other for drippers.

In my opinion it is better to find a local brand you like, because they are more readily available and most times cheaper.

@BiddyBubbly agreed, and yes a bit disappointed.. but hey ... I have juices I LOVE ... and a drawer full of juices I cant look at lololol. And still in search of the OMG Juice that I know is out there.

I might just be getting myself a dripper ..very soon!! ill be sure to ask for your advise when I do :)
 
@Rob Fisher I haven't ventured down that ally as yet but I'm pondering ordering a 30ml btl of Tropical ice from Vapour mountain but consider ordering 1 30ml a waste so I'll wait until I can justify it.

Order a bottle of XXX as well. Have you tried Foggs Milky Way? If you don't like them I'll buy them off you. :D
 
@Deckie , this juice is in the flavour profile that I love.. NCV Strab is so spot on in flavour its scary.. But this tastes burnt, like an Ashtray burnt.. which I shouldn't be tasting at all.
Funny, story. I got exactly the taste you are describing with my bottle from vapecartel a while back. It's still steeping in my drawer however.
I had exactly the same experience:confused:. I loved NCV StrawB and thought Milkman would fit the profile. After reading the compliments here I jumped in and bought a bottle. The first vape was :wondering:. It did not taste right. I know that taste is subjective and at that time realised that I liked subtle flavours and not strong flavours with Witches Brew and Crème De La Crème being the only exception.

I let the bottle steep for 6 weeks and now its really mellowed out and very vapeable. I`ve used mine in a dripper and the Bellus tank as well. Check and compare with other vaper`s who have the juice to see if it is a problem with the batch or a "taste being subjective" thing. Maybe a good steep will do it justice.;)

Thank-you for the advice @Blu_Marlin , will try steeping it and see what happens :) Will also see what others think and may even get @RipeAvo to taste for me.
 
With Great excitement I received my Milkman bottle yesterday from @Sir Vape (great guys to deal with) . Decided to try it last night, put it into the tank, took a few pulls and Uuuuurrrrrg tasted slightly of strawberry syrup and a burnt, ashtray taste, thought Id burnt out a coil, changed that and the same thing....Kept trying to vape it to see if the taste would change, so much so that my tounge is sore this morning. I eventually gave up and decided to give it a try this morning when my taste buds were well rested.

Same thing.. even changed my tank this morning to a take that normally gives me amazing flavours.
Same thing... yuk, yuk yuk!!!

There is definitely something wrong with this bottle, so disappointed :-(

I remember this from my first experience with milk man, tasted like burnt/cooked strawberry and plastic :p

I think it really needs to steep, at the volumes they are producing it's possible the juice arrives fresh, quite a few people have told me it improves if you leave it for a few weeks.

Not knocking the juice, everyone has different tastebuds and luckily there's a lot of choice out there.

A recent Strawberry discovery for me was Complex Chaos's Strawberry Desire, surprised there's not more hype around that one!

There are plenty underhyped juices.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one... how was it after it steeped @method1 ?

Awesome, will definetly have a look at that.. have you had NCV Strawb? That is exactly like strawberry nesquick :) Is strawberry desire Similar?

Very interesting read this thread. Because I think Milkman tastes fantastic wheras NCV Strawb smells awesome, but tastes very muted.

I think builds and setups come into play here

Haha everyone uses the "nesquik" analogy but to me I haven't had a juice that tastes like nesquik yet including international juices.
From the CC juice I get more of a strawberry custard.

As for the steeping, I sold mine before letting it steep, I did have a toot or two of a friends that had steeped and although familiar it did seem quite improved from my previous experience of it.

Im going to use the NCV Juice again tonight :) I must say it, also depends on the time of day you vape.. some juices sometimes taste amazing to me and other times they yuk.. so strange.
 
@Chezzig sorry to hear about this. I can't see it being the juice itself. We have sold a load of these from the same batch the last couple of days and no reports back that it tastes different. Like others say tastes are really subjective. Let it steep for awhile and see how it goes and keep us updated PLEASE. I know it sucks hyping yourself up for a juice and laying out the money and you are like huh!!! Done it many times myself so I get how you feel. Give it some time and if it still does not gel with you, you can def sell it on as the juice is always in demand.

Also pop us a mail on your next order and we can run through some profiles prior to your purchase and we will add a sample or two of some of our juices for you try as well.

Thank-you @Sir Vape .. I actually want to order " The Raging Donut " tonight or tomorrow morning.. Im nervous, is it good?
 
I see mentions of "burnt-plastic" here. I had that exact taste with The Vaping Rabbits Milk Man. That juice needed to steep like 2 months after I bought it before it tasted very good
 
There are plenty underhyped juices.
As are there overhyped juices. I have gone through so much money in my quest for the ever elusive ADV and have been disappointed so many times. It really is a subjective thing, but I have found a couple of juices now that I like. The only juice that I absolutely love though is Charlie's Chalk Dust - Honey Badger, but it's too expensive to be my ADV. It just hits the spot every time.

I recently discovered Five Points juice range, local Cape Town mixer. It's hitting the market soon, all I'll say is.. watch out, it's a good one.
 
Morning @Rob Fisher. Orion Northern Star, this I can just vape & vape all day and every time I have a pull, I'm happy. I did try Hazeworks Startup & Creamy Clouds Lemon Biscuits - I found the lemon too raw and not enough creamy biscuit - but close enough. I seems us old wise owls are more fussy than most but maybe we've earned the right to be.
You have not earned any right to be that way.
You paid for an item to provide the tastes it said it provided , and it didn't - thus there is a problem with it - this anomaly is not because of your age. Your wisened up taste buds should be telling you spot on what's right and wrong with it. You've earned the experience to have a say, but you don't deserve to have any bad tastes being produced from something you bought from some vendor. The only time you would have earned some different - otherworldly tastes is if you're DIY mixing your own concoctions :D like Hilda [7de Laan]

Please notify me how I would be able to get this in the greter schemes of Cape Town :D
 
One Hot Wonder? :confused:
Usual click-bait... I expected an underwear model in severe state of undress with a VERY skimpy top at least, or a typo.
Turns out to be the latter :cool:
