I thought i would say some things about the t-juice concentrates i have tried so far :
Red Astaire: this seems to be everyone's favourite but honestly didn't do much for me. It's not unpleasant , it reminds me of Tunes the throat sweets , cherry and some kind of menthol/medicinal vibe. I don't mind the taste of tunes but I wouldn't say they were delicious , as with Red Astaire
Melipona: Melipona not melanoma ! I like this one a lot . It tastes like vanilla , but also has a slightly burnt caramel sort of things going on .
Jack the ripple: This one is my favourite by far. It is supposed to taste like raspberry ripple ice cream i think, and for me it absolutley does. I saw a review where the reviewer said they enjoyed it , but didn't get the raspberry ripple at all. Well i think they have it spot on . It's delicious and has a very hearty throat hit !
I still have yet to try my Vamp vape concentrate , but it smells delicious!

I love my Red Astaire Not keen on the Ripple though, I find the smell really strong and I don't really get any flavour from it at all. I also have Minty the toff which for some reason smells and tastes exactly the same as JTR, may be I'm mixing them wrong I don't know but I don't get any raspberry, toffee or minty flavour from any of them. Starting to think I got a bad batch or something

umm that is a bit weird ..... have you got the concentrate for mixing? If so you should be mixing them at 15-20% i think , maybe you could try increasing this by increments of five? I don't know .

It's OK for a stopgap while a proper custard steeps IMO. There are better out there but the 3 day steep is very useful if you're running dry and have to wait 3/4 weeks for a decent one.

I'm another one who just doesn't get what all the fuss is about with Red Astaire. Personally I think High Voltage is better for that 'tunes' type of juice.
Melipona & Jack The Ripple are two others I'm not a fan of either.
Vamp Vape is nice but i quickly get bored of it.
I do like Afro Dizziac but for some reason the concentrate doesn't taste the same as the pre-made I tried last year. The pre-made had a much more cough candy taste to it, where as the concentrate tastes more of herbs to me. Not unpleasant but the pre-made was better.
I also like Hermano Rubio, but again get bored of it quickly.
At vapefest last year I bought 10 concentrates and overall I'm unimpressed bordering on disappointed.
I just find them weak even at high percentages and not very good value for money.
I'm in the minority though as most people rave about them.

Red Astaire - my evening vape. Minty the Toff- a good daytime vape JTR - nice when I'm in the mood for it. Vamp Vape - very nice, must try some more!! Tangerine Dream - just trying some of my first batch now, not quite sure what to make of it. It has steeped for almost 3 weeks, but although it tastes of orange, it has another difficult-to-pin-down taste too. Can't quite decide if I like it or not. I might leave this one another couple of weeks just to be sure!

custard always manages to find it's way into the conversation somehow!

Mr red Astaire My one true love . Soft berry flavour with a seductive aniseed undertone. Then a hint of menthol to add a bit of spice
Jack the ripple My cheeky bit on the side . Mmm a lovely creamy raspberry , them bam . Next comes a sexy hint of creaminess followed by IMO a light tobacco undertone. Not an all day vape but good for a little dalliance
Strawberri A fruity explosion on the palette . Soft strawberri with an underlying creaminess . It caresses your taste buds with its depth and flavour
Primo Verdi My stress buster, pure Tabacco without the ashtray effect . My dirty little secret at 30mg . Th secret to avoid succumbing to the devils spawn of a Samson Rollie !!!

I have Tangerine Dream steeping, two weeks now,still smells like parma violets, very perfumey, not nice at all. I just need to be more patient and wait a while longer to try it i guess :/
