Chris,
Maybe a sample pack of the 6 VT flavors, 5-10ml bottles? $30ish at 5ml bottles, maybe $50ish for 10ml? (kind of guessing on the pricing) I have ordered juices based on recommendations that turned out not so great and some that I instantly loved, but the ones that I really didn't like seemed like a waste. There were more dislikes than likes. I don't mind paying a bit of a premium for good juice if I know I like it. I would rather spend $5 on a 5ml sample bottle and find out I don't like it than $15 on 30ml and not like it. Not sure how the deeming Regs affect the bottle sizes.
And yes bigger bottles, 120 or 250ml would be great for sales IMO especially since the TFV8 seems to be a big hit, and it's a juice hog from what I have read. More product with less packaging should allow for some volume discount in price too.
And IMHO, ditch the dropper bottles for the VT brand, or at least offer a choice. I am sure the droppers are great for those that drip, but filling a tank like the Starre (not easy to fill with the dropper due to design), or a subtank plus (huge volume taking many "dip into bottle, squeeze, release, pull out of bottle, squeeze into tank) cycles is, for a lack of better wording, time consuming and can be messy. I would much rather the standard plastic bottles with the little pressed in tips. Or the york caps on the bigger bottles.

It came today!!!  I'm so happy.  I love it.  I'm in love with it.  Except, probably not going to use the iSub, maybe.  Not sure yet.  My SO thinks no, but if I want to vape more than one juice, that's the only other TC I have - I borrowed my husband's Herakles + for a while when I was using his IPV, but the coil is burned and he's out of coils.  Only drawback is with the Crown 2, if I tip the mod quite a bit from vertical, or lay it down on it's side for any length of time, juice does leak out the air flow area.  I'm hoping if I close off the airflow when I have to put it in my purse, if it gets horizontal, that will take care of it.  I think my SO likes it, too, BTW.  The size of it.
BUT MY JUICE TASTES SO GOOD NOW!!!!!  It hasn't tasted this good in a long time.

$43.95 for 120ml

I like it!  I am definitely in the "Crank it up" camp

The temperature range depends on what you like, and the mod you use, also it depends on your juice, some juices like it hot others don't. You will find what is best for you. I could recommend you start at about 370f, and go up or down from there until you find what you like.

Comp is fine  got him on skype now
Comp had issues  his lab was destroyed all his stuff was broken flavors dumped out   hes getting back on track and will be here soon

You may have talked me into it Tam.  I have to get a couple of things worked out but...
Warning...turn down the volume if you don't like loud, aggressive guitar intros a la Five Finger Death Punch.  If you do, then crank it up!
 

And the more you participate, the more you learn. Then, when you see a new vaper post a question and you realize, "Hey! I can answer this and help him/her.... " that's what makes this forum so wonderful but the people in it more so.   

Well almighty father Chris, this is an awesome website, it only took one day for my order to ship, there's an excellent selection of juices which I will be looking through again soon, and whether it comes within these next 4-6 days or even 2 weeks, this is a 5/5 service. I was just looking for help, and honestly I didn't realize this website was a store as well :P but the community wasted no time in being welcoming and very helpful. It's nice to see what may have started as a simple nicotine alternative has grown into such an active friendly community! I mean, I've never heard of any website for people to nerd out over their different brands of cigarettes...

First, I like the internal spiral fin design which not only spirals your vapor into your mouth for smoother airflow but also blocks spit-back from devices that are prone to do that. Second, it's minimalistic in design...looks like a smooth cylinder on top of your tank.
They're strictly MTL, though. There's a little bit too much restriction for the DLers IMO.

I placed an order on his website about 1.5 months ago and I have not heard or received anything. That is completely not like him. 

It has been a long time since I wrote a review on an e-liquid.  This is largely in part because I was absent from the forum for so long, but it’s also because I have started to mix a lot of my own.

This review is on Eden’s Empire, from Vapor Talk’s Black Label line.  I will say ahead of time that this was sort of a bonus from Vapor Talk courtesy of @Christopher, but the fact I’m writing a review has nothing to do with that.  I’m writing the review because I want to.  I don’t write reviews on every e-liquid I have vaped because a lot of the store bought liquids I vape are house blends and aren’t available online.  This one is available and it deserves a review. 

As always, these are my opinions only.  Each person has their own preferences and their own tastes.  What I like and what works for me won’t necessarily be liked or work for the next guy or gal.  That being said, I’m not telling you to run right out and buy a bottle for yourself, I am merely giving you a review in order to help you make the decision for yourself on whether or not you would like to try it.

As I mentioned, I have started mixing a lot of my own.  Probably 90% if what I vape is mixed by me.  I really don’t pay attention to new lines or flavors that have been released.  In fact, I really don’t even look at liquids when I peruse vape supply websites.  I don’t need to.  But when the opportunity to get my hands on a bottle of Eden’s Empire arose, I jumped at the chance.  I’m glad I did, because Vapor Talk has done a fine job with this one.

The details – Eden’s Empire is a blend of wild strawberries and whipped cream.  It is available in zero, 3mg, 6mg and 12mg nicotine and comes in 30ml glass bottles with droppers and child safety caps.  It is a 65VG/35PG blend and for me, that particular PG/VG blend in combination with the flavor is one that I decided I would place into my “flavor zone”.   In other words, I wanted the flavor to be the start of the show and I was less concerned with blowing big clouds with this particular liquid.

The testing – I have a very specific method I use if I’m going to be reviewing a liquid.  I take my reviews seriously because I know very well that someone may decide to purchase a liquid I have reviewed based purely on what I have written.  Reading a review obviously isn’t the same as sitting in your local vape shop and sampling a liquid to see if you like it.  As a result I keep my testing methods the same no matter the liquid in order to paint a picture and inform the reader of exactly what was going on from a technical standpoint while I was conducting my testing/review.

In order to have consistency between all of my liquid testing, I use similar setups with each liquid.  I always use a mech mod with a freshly charged Samsung 25R and I always use an RDA.  Though the specific mech and/or RDA may change from liquid to liquid, I always clean the RDA and build fresh coils that measure out to approximately .5 ohms.  For this liquid, I used my Arthas mech mod and a Twisted Messes V1 RDA.  The coils were basic kanthal A1, 8 wraps around a 2.5mm jig.  This clocked in at .49 ohms on my ohm meter.  They were wicked with Cotton Bacon.

The Experience – I’m usually very picky about my “dessert vapes”.  I have a few that I like, and I generally like to have an adult beverage with them.  I am usually hesitant to try anything with cream in it, be it sweet cream, Bavarian cream or, as with this one, whipped cream.  I have only come across a couple liquids with cream flavors that I actually enjoy.  They usually aren’t my thing.  I’m more of a rich, decadent, chocolate brownie type of dessert vape guy.

This one can be added to the very short list of liquids with cream flavors I actually enjoy.

This vape was extremely pleasing to my palate.  As I took my first draw, I immediately had the taste of strawberries dancing across my tongue.  As I inhaled and the vapor moved across the back my tongue, the whipped cream seemed to take over, but not in an overbearing way.  The exhale simply reversed the order of the flavors I tasted; whipped cream at the back of the tongue, strawberries at the front as the vapor escaped my mouth.  Interestingly, the whipped cream was the prominent flavor I noticed with the aftertaste.  The aftertaste also left me wanting more. 

Another drag, another exhale.  I waited a moment after the second drag so I could really analyze the aftertaste.  While the exhale did indeed present the flavors in reverse order of the inhale, for me the whipped cream is the dominant flavor left on my tongue after the exhale is complete.  It’s almost, but not quite, reminiscent of strawberry shortcake or a Belgian waffle with strawberries and whipped cream.  The strawberries are definitely there.  The whipped cream is definitely there.  But I did detect a little something more.  Maybe it was all in my mind.  Maybe I was trying tricking myself into thinking it tasted like strawberry shortcake.  Maybe I need to make a run to the grocery store to pick up some strawberries, whipped cream and some shortcake.  I’m making myself hungry.

Now, seeing as how I like to pair my vapes with adult beverages, I was stumped.  I’m generally a bourbon kind of guy.  Bourbon probably isn’t the best alcohol to pair with strawberries and cream (or at least the cream).  Fortunately I have a wife who works for BevMo (a large liquor store chain in the western United States) and I have a lot of options around the house.  Digging into the liquor cabinet and the Bevridgerator in my mancave, I was able to come up with a concoction that really enhanced both the strawberries and the whipped cream.  I made a strawberry vodka margarita with whipped cream infused vodka.  This pairing worked wonderfully together and it was definitely a refreshing combination in the blistering Southern California heat we are currently experiencing.

If there was one drawback for me to this liquid, it was the PG/VG ratio.  Most of my liquid ratios are in even “10’s” amounts (i.e. 50/50, 40/60, 30/70, etc.).  It’s a personal preference.  The ratio usually plays a factor in what tank I’m going to use or how low I’m going to build my coils if I’m dripping.  My normal cutoff for going with a higher or lower ohm coil setup is at 40/60 PG/VG.  The 35/65 ratio had me questioning which direction I wanted to go.  I think I would have preferred a 40/60 or even a 50/50 PG/VG ratio just to kick the flavor up a small notch, but the 35/65 ratio works with this liquid.  As it turns out, I can go either direction successfully.

My score – 9 (out of 10).  While I wouldn’t elevate this to “All Day Vape” level, this easily rises to the “go to” level if I’m relaxing in the mancave after dinner.  All in all this was a very good vape experience that didn’t assault my taste buds.  Neither flavor canceled out the other.  They are nicely balanced and complement each other very well.  I would recommend this to anybody who likes strawberries and whipped cream or strawberry shortcake.  Nice cloud production can be achieved if clouds are what you are into, but for me this was all about the flavor, not the clouds.

@jasonculp  that is very cool

Cool!  I am glad to know that.  I will be mixing up a 120ml tonight.
I really hate to say, that you are only seeing a small part of it.  I have all of my Vapocolypse stash (mods, tanks etc) in a locked gun cabinet, and keep my nicotine in the freezer.
I redid my office a few weeks ago (at my wife's urging) and put all of my vape related stuff in these 2 built in desks (to the right of my desk).  It makes it nice so I can close them off so nobody sees them, and I can also lock the side my mixing stuff is on.  It keeps the cat and grandkids out of it.  I glad she made me do it, as I am really enjoying it.


 

17 flavors and a Gallon of VG.  I not really sure about the VG, but it was pretty cheap, and it tastes good.

I've been using that brand for over a year and have been completely satisfied with it.
