I ordered The Lung Brewery's sample pack of their Fruity Years juices, 6 juices in all. Arrived about 2 or 3 weeks ago. I love fruit juices and decided to start sampling them yesterday (9 August 2015) afternoon. In this post I shall give you my impressions or the two I have tasted thus far. As always, taste is subjective. What I might like, you might certainly not and vice versa.
Tasted in a Chalice III bf dripper and a RM2 bf dripper, single coiled and wicked with ceramic wicking, both at 0.77 ohms (around 20W). All at 12 mg nic. The juices are said to all be around 60VG/40PG, with at least one natural in house extraction in each. These juices are available at www.skybluevaping.co.za
Reaper
This is described as: "A carnival of Strawberries and Peach, oozing with sweet and sour funfair, with a tart finish that will leave your mouth salivating for the next hit.".
My first experience with Reaper gave me a very unpleasant artificial taste. This persisted throughout the afternoon and evening. Left it overnight in the Reo bottle and tried again today. Better, but still something in there I do not like. Difficult to describe - almost a half burnt aroma.
I can identify neither strawberry nor peach. At most a sweetish fruit salad. My palate could also not pick up any sour or tart.
Good vapour, minimal throat hit.
The Reaper certainly does not suit my taste. Maybe you have had a better experience, which you care to share with us.

Described as: "An Intergalactic menage a tois (sic) of Jackfruit, Dragonfruit and an inhouse blend of CitrusFlavours. Your tongue will thank you!".
Some very interesting, and foreign to most of us, fruit flavours in this one. Jackfruit (the national fruit of Bangladesh) has a flavour comparable to a combination of apple, pineapple, mango, and banana. Dragonfruit has a flavor that's like a cross between kiwi and pear.
At first, also something artificial for me, but far less prominent than in Reaper. This morning it was perfectly fine. What do I taste? Certainly something fruity I have never tasted before. Very exotic almost perfumy sort of a taste. Certainly a bowl full of non-native fruit salad. On the exhale I get just a fragment of citrus and a refreshing bit of cool.
Again, good vapour and minimal throat hit.
Do I like it? No, I think I prefer a more pronounced major flavour in a fruit juice with the minor flavours forming a backdrop. This one, for me is like too many minor flavours competing and confusing my palate. On the other hand, it is quite possible that the Jackfruit is the main flavour and it is just foreign to my taste buds.
