'ADV'.. haven't quite managed that yet.
of course the vendors are going to use the term ADV with every juice, it covers up the likely truth that you probably won't get through the first bottle before getting sick of it.
I like the words' taste is subjective".... translates as 'tastes nothing like'

My ADV is lime. It's actually an AIVEDV juice. Oooops sorry just started a new term. AIV = All I Vape EDV = Every Day Vape

It's good to hear what in the vaping world annoys people. When reading some of the above posts and thinking about them, there are quite a few misconceptions and inappropriate terms have crept in to the vaping vocabulary. The one that makes my blood boil is the term "premium juice". WTF ! ! ! I sure wish somebody could define what makes it "premium". Probably Greg gave the most appropriate explanation, fancy packaging/labeling and ridiculously over priced. When I see "Premium juice" for sale I don't bother reading any further as it's generally someone trying to recoup some of the shed load of money they've spent on juice that they've found to be no more than expensive shit.

I think my explanation was far more eloquent than yours

Diplomacy is not my strong point Greg. But I ain't about to change my ways now.

ADV= homebrew RY4, preferably Inawera but sometimes have to settle for TPA RY4 Double. Been like this for must be three and a half years now. Trekked around the last couple of vapefests trying too many flavours, but nowt comes close

I make a batch of my ADV - which depends on my mood - usually about 400ml - then I mix up a small batch of a custardy loveliness and sometimes another - it maybe menthol or as of last nite, it's Kentucky bourbon flavored. I vape my all day and then if I get bored will reach for one of the other two, then go back to my all day. I've tried many different manufacturers eliquids, and can honestly say that I couldn't tell a premium from a hole in the ground, but I could tell a cheapy - no depth of flavor, and usually a nasty aftertaste - so I only mix my own - but occasionally I've been known to enter a few giveaways and had a chance to try other's juice ranges - and am yet to be impressed, I'm glad to say, as my way is so much more affordable. I've met juice snobs who won't vape it unless it's a US import, and I think - each to their own - which in my case is my own!

Oooh, b.t.w.
Today, as most days (ignoring the LIME) I am on my ADV which is genuinely my ADV.
But some dodgy shop didn't flog it me, I made it....
It's called "Black Honey Creme Tobacco".....
Unsurprisingly, it contains Black Honey and Bav' Creme... but that's only part of the secret recipe.
But the AAEC Tribune on Friday published what one relative of DJS believes is the recipe, which has been safely tucked away in a family scrapbook for years. The blend of 11 herbs and spices is kept in a vault says the company DJS and no one - except the company DJS of course - knows what it is.

Ha! I wish I had the ingenuity to invent recipes djs thank heavens other people do though I accepted that I dont do 'ADV' (beyond always having T Juice's Jack The Ripple in my daily billet box) I always rotate at least 3 tanks a day, and after a week I'm bored with them so I rewick and move on to another batch of flavours.. But have a growing list of lovely, favoured DIY juices and haven't bought a ready made eliquid all year. I have, in its place, bought a humongous amount of concentrates and its almost worse than my avid vape gear collecting but least its really good value!

I suppose my ADV is actually a tad longer than that. It could be an AWV, or an AMV, but as I started on it three and a half years ago, it should be called an AYV.
I know that sounds a bit far fetched, but as I smoked for 49 years and in all that time I reckon I only smoked 4 different brands of fags, I have a long number of years to go before it will be time to change my AYV for something different!!!!

I tend to also stick with the one home brew juice, strawberry Custard, but when i do have a change its usually Apple Pie and custard! I like Custard!! I use the Strawberry Custard 99% of the time, and don't get fed up with it at all.. I must have also tried most of the for sale juices, and they are a tad bland for me.. prefer my own, and not to mention the difference in cost!

During these long hot sticky summer days that we are so used to in Scotland (??????), whilst lying on the lounger, outside the caravan above a sandy beach, then there is nothing better than vaping some refreshing fruit ejuices. I make up a number of these before we head off in the van and invariably return with some unused. So come the autumn and winter, I am at times, seen to be vaping these fruit juices, while I shelter at the shed door watching the horizontal rain and sleet as it sweeps across the garden. They are still nice and yes they are still refreshing, despite the weather, but overall, once I am back indoors, I am quite content to return to my all day favourite.

I suppose My ADV is My Home-Brew NET........just split into diff. types of 'baccy for a bit of variety!! Sometimes I think about trying something different...........(tho' NOT BLOODY MENTHOL!!!..)& then I see how much others here must be laying out on concentrates!!! So, I'll stay boringly unvaried......but £SMUG!!
