OMG! I love refreshers! I didn't even think to try any of that flavour!
I've just started to try out my original vip mixes and I'm pleasantly surprised by the 555 and coffee. These were really good and flavoursome (Too much with 555 i think) when I direct dripped into an atty, but were really muted when using a carto. Now, after having a few weeks to steep I have tried these 2 again and they are really, really good! The 555 did have too much flavour, but I've reduced it by half and it's perfick! The coffee tastes very rich, but if I vape it for too long I lose the flavour and it tastes of a subtle acrid type smoke. Very strange, but great again the next day!
The menthol seems to have reduced in strength over time? It was great initially, quite different from pre-mixed but good all the same. Before, the smallest 'drag' would be rewarded with a hearty TH, but now I have to tug for a good few seconds before getting a muted TH. Tastes good, but the change is quite significant...?
There is much more to this mixing than meets the eye - I have quite a lot of flavourings now (ViP, TPA, Hangsen and supermarket) but am only getting on with a few of them. I don't think I will ever become fully self sufficient mixing my own, but it can be fun so will continue in small doses and keep myself stocked up on the fail-safe pre-mixed that I've found.

Having made a few mixes with VIP flavors (sic). I have found that they are quite strong, which is good, coz you don't need so much. They can taste a bit odd to start with, but I am now firmly in the steeping camp. After 2 days the flavours have mellowed and are rather nice. Ihave used: Honeywood tobacco USA mix Cake mix Coffee Will deffo buy more.

Haven't had Sherryl's base I must be honest King . . . it's either Nicvape/Cige or HC that I use . . . only because I try and keep my VIP orders under the threshold and the flavourings tend to take that up. No other reason.

if you are falling off the vaping wagon ...i would suggest vape what you know will hit the spot ...its easy to fall prey to the fags if you dont have the flavour that hits the spot

yeh i went back to premix and wasnt any different. seemed to my whole experience with vision ego and me being to pig headed to switch back to something different. i syringe filled an era cartos with some my mixture and totally wipes the floor with them and have no desire for an analogue now .
flvour wouldnt be enough for me to switch back anyway....well unless it was bacon
