I'm really into T-juice at the moment - here are the five I've tried:
Red Astaire - what can I say that hasn't been said already? A perfect blend of fruits and berries, but not too sweet and a lovely cooling hint of menthol. I don't get the aniseed that others mention (which is good because I'm not a big aniseed lover) but this has such depth of flavour and it never gets boring. It's been my go-to juice for the past six weeks, it's what I always take to work with me. With a new coil and a clean tank, this is as good as vaping gets. You haven't vaped until you've tried it. 10/10
Minty the Toff - like a butterscotch mint, but for me there's nowhere near enough menthol to make it work. I find it cloying and although the flavours are very pure (no hint of chemicals) I just can't get on with it. Not for me, but if you liked the sweets as a kid it's worth a try. 4/10
Strawberri - a very good strawberry flavour, sweet and intense. The description mentions raspberry as well, but I don't notice this myself. However, I find the vape too dry. I think this is due to the high PG content in the premixed juice, and could be sorted by buying the concentrate and mixing my own. Something for the future! The score is for the pre-mixed juice - I reckon it'll go up with a more even PG/VG mix. 7/10
Forest Affair - the jury is still out for me on this - I've only vaped it for an hour this evening so I think I need more time with it to decide if it's suitable for extended periods of vaping. It's berries - lots and lots of berries. When I first sniffed it I was unsure, it was very potent. However, the taste is really pronounced and very nice, like a purple fruit pastille with extra blueberries. The only thing is it's really sweet. I'm just not sure I could vape it all day, but it's got bags of flavour and is unlike any other juice I've tried. Definitely one I'll spend more time with, so the score could go in either direction! 7.5/10
Jack the Ripple - it's raspberry ripple ice cream and it's almost perfect. I find it's quite muted in the inhale, but as you finish taking it down the raspberry hits you, not too strong but sweet without being sickly, and then as you exhale you get More intense raspberry but with cream and a hint of vanilla. It's a stunning juice. Again, I think I'd prefer it to have more VG but I could vape this forever. I don't know whether a hint of cool would give it a bit more of an ice cream feel, but flavour-wise it's just lovely. Highly recommended and I'll be getting more of this, in the largest buckets they do! 9/10

All I get with jack the ripple is an after taste of tobacco, which instantly turns me off of it! Strawberri and red Astaire are daily vapes for me.

Avoid Melipona . . . and the jury is still out on Javajava for me. Red Astaire Afro Dizziac Minty the Toff ( I like that it's not overly minty ) Jack the Ripple ( though having a break from Raspberry ) Forrest Affair ( prefer Capella Harvest Berries ) Those are my favs of the ones I've tried so far Kibbs.

Thanks Perps, Next time I do a concentrate order I'll bear that in mind.

Colonel Custard arrived today - I've been vaping it at 8 watts in a iclear30s. The flavour is not as strong as I hoped, but it's a pleasant enough vape and the custard is definitely there. It only arrived today and there's an occasional slight under taste - not chemical, but not quite right. I'm hoping it'll clear as the juice matures. Because it's quite a mild juice I think it's got the potential to be an ADV - just got to see how it goes when it's steeped.
I'm certainly no pro when it comes to custard flavours, but it's a good and easily available juice that can be vaped any time of the day. Just don't expect something with the depth of a mrs lord juice, or even RA - this is a ronseal juice, it does what it say on the tin. 7/10

My replacement Red Astaire just arrived along with Quintessence and an RA concentrate. Quintessence is a strange one. I couldn't actually remember the description from when I ordered. Apparently its: Brandy (a little) Grapes (not yet) Herbs (hell yeah and lots of 'em.) Thinking about it, to me it sounds disgusting and... well actually its quite nice. But regardless of how some of the T-Juice sound, I'm gonna work through them all. That's about as full a review as I can give for Quintessence. I find it really difficult to describe something that I haven't tasted before.

daveyboy37 - I've got quintessence as well. But I haven't tried it yet. I'm going to try a coil in the dripper once masterchef is over

Quintessence is a unique flavour, I've never tasted anything like it. I'm dripping it in my igo-l (my first go with a dripper - finally a coiling success!), and I'm getting a fruity juice (grapes and maybe a little apple) with a big hit of parsley, and a hint of mustard grass or something a little peppery. Herby vaping is a new one on me - and with the dripper it's just a massive hit.
Do I like it? I don't know! I keep vaping it, so that's a good thing, but it so unlike anything else I've ever tasted. It's very savoury, maybe it'd make a good morning juice, but for me it's best in small doses. Unratable at the moment! ?/10
