    Folks here's the "lest we never forget Sir Digsby memorial juice parcel" revival thread, aka The Juice Strikes Back.

    We've taken 13 names but the list has now been closed. We won't be taking any more new names. Sorry. In all likelyhood there will be another list started but that won't be until several weeks away, so you'll have to be patient and come back and check later, there's no mailing list or anything like that, just first come first served.

    Please check this google spreadsheet to view the current status of the Juice Parcel

    I will update any relevant info in this document. So if you ever need to check where the parcel is at or anything like that, the info should be in the doc above.
    In the link below you can rate the juices you've sampled. Please do this once you've sampled the juices, it will be helpful for people browsing this forum to find interesting juices to buy in the future.

    Juice Review Form - courtesy of quintron

    * Would be cool if you throw in another bottle of juice so overall parcel juices don't deplete over time
    * Postage for each parcel to the next person works out around €6.50 There are two parcels in total so being on this list will cost you approx €13 in total postage costs
    * Make sure juices are nicely packaged so if a bottle cap comes loose in transit it doesn't soak all other bottles (parcels have juices in several ziplock bags already so no problem there)

    At some point in the not-too-distant future I'll add a squadron of tobacco vapes to this.

    SSDC must proclaim his love for SS-IM before receiving it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 267 ✭✭redkid


    Yea I'm in also. Sound.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,137 ✭✭✭artyeva


    is it alright if i get in on this one too? i was hoping to get to try a few tobaccos but the sampler box i got in the last thread was mostly fruity, which i seem to have gone off entirely. :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,026 ✭✭✭grindle


    I'll pansy the tobaccos I'm making for this to 16mg so no-one whinges in a big pansy-whinge style.

  • Registered Users Posts: 6,026 ✭✭✭grindle


    Yarrrr. Should be a few days before my juices are flowing though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 899 ✭✭✭StickyIcky


    I'm sure it will be a few days (or weeks even) before this 2nd round of juices is ready to go around.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,756 ✭✭✭Thecageyone

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,561 ✭✭✭rickyjb

    That's done there stick


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,756 ✭✭✭Thecageyone


    Just checked out the google form for reviewing, nicely done :) this will be fun.


  • Registered Users Posts: 616 ✭✭✭BrendanD


    Count me in PM sent


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,756 ✭✭✭Thecageyone


    Brendan can confirm I wrap stuff pretty well ;) how'd you get on with that lot?


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,085 ✭✭✭meoklmrk91


    Also so count me in, just a quick question, how long do we get to hold on the parcel, a week or so? Because if there are that many juices a couple of days won't be enough :D. Firing off a PM now.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,756 ✭✭✭Thecageyone


    Good question! I reckon I'll put my usual juices on hold once I get the parcel, and sample the box for that day or two so I'm not overwhelmed by flavours. I've enough tanks and cartos and clearos to have a few on the go anytime though :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 899 ✭✭✭StickyIcky


    Few days, a week. Best thing is to get a rebuildable atomiser or two (and wick and wire) and build a few coils. Try some juice, dry burn it to clean it off, then try another. Methol flavour lingers (as I discovered) so try and build your coil before trying another juice in it.

    Chime in here if I'm wrong here guys but that's the best way I look at trying so many juices.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,756 ✭✭✭Thecageyone


    That's what I might just do. Now that I can build a half decent coil - will make up a few and do just that. I have 3 drip-attys, they will be perfect for this. Because it seems once you get them right, the flavour is much better than clearos.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,201 ✭✭✭quintron


    I'll be using a 306 for anything potentially dodge (for my tastes) then on to the IGO or the Spiral! :) while I soak the 306 overnight or something. The missus will go mad. Can't wait! ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,756 ✭✭✭Thecageyone


    hehe, my missus is fit to crack with me. Keep saying "once you get into anything, you get obsessed" - sure ya could be worse. She vapes herself, we kicked the dirty habit together. But she's much more casual. I just like to research and look up on anything I get into. End up watching countless hours of youtube vids and reading articles and visiting forums ... sure why not. Beats watching tv.

    I felt like my vape-mail was making her envious so I got her some stuff too. Today I set her up with a lovely pink ego twist, with the 'vanity ring' as some call it, and a pink-ish vivi nova with a purple drip tip and filled it with her fav menthol.

    Not sure who was happier :D

  • Registered Users Posts: 616 ✭✭✭BrendanD


    Half way through the coffee really like that, other ones i liked was the orange de coco ? surprisingly did not like the bandanna one, and i thought that would be rigt up my street ;-)
    Brendan can confirm I wrap stuff pretty well ;) how'd you get on with that lot?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,756 ✭✭✭Thecageyone


    Orange de sangre? I was recommended that, and seen a few say they love it. Including the usual reviewers. But I wasn't into it, too mi-wadi-ish for me - think that was the dearest of the pack too. Glad you like it though.

    On the banana, bit much on it's own yeah, try a couple of drops mixed with other flavours, that's what I was doing with it. Came up with some interesting ones. It mixes well with the hazelnut, or some tobacco flavours.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,201 ✭✭✭quintron


    Well folks,
    I received the parcel yesterday and.. holy sheeeeeeet!!
    This is a TON of juice!

    My first reaction was:

    Followed swiftly by:

    When I had got myself together... I was like,

    Okay, gif's aside, this is a CRAZY amount of juice (66 bottles to be precise :D) and many many thanks to wingnut32 for including practically the whole wingnuts premium line of e-Liquids to this juice sampler parcel. Super excited to try out a whole bunch of those that I've had my eye on for ages.
    I'll add a few more myself and top up some that are there already etc.


    It. is. epic. :)
    Here is the opening shot:

    So, regrettably, I'm away this weekend but will crack into these first thing Monday!

    A reminder of the juice review form which is here:
    http://bit.ly/11hvYF4

    You don't have to use it, but in any case you can see the reviews at this link as they go up:
    http://bit.ly/13AdHtp


    It would be nice to have a bit of input from all (remembering, of course, that taste is 100% subjective) so that we can build up a decent picture of these juices, which in turn, will help inform others in the vape community, based on aggregate scores, VTF, etc, and how people are getting the best out of the e-liquids they buy.

    PS, does anyone know what mystery brown and mystery green juices are from the original sampler parcel? They have zero labelling..

    Okay, off to set up me wicks 'n' coils!

    (PS. just saw the new "all the juices" review site grindle posted up. It's amazin'!!

    Any chance of getting in on this?


  • Registered Users Posts: 267 ✭✭redkid


    Any chance we can get a copy of the list posted on here so everyone knows when and where it's going?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,137 ✭✭✭artyeva


    list as it stands at the moment is in the op of this thread.

    Hi Celly

    When this list is done and dusted there will be another list made. I wont' start to make the 3rd list up until this list is almost done.

    Hey Redkid

    Like artyeva says all the info you could possibly need is in the original post. I also put a google spreadsheet there which will be updated with who has what parcel etc. There's a link to that spreadsheet you can click on, plus a link to a review form where you can rate and the juices and write your thoughts on them.
