New vs Old Opinions of the formula changes

[Lacit1707]

I'm not going to approach this with an accusatory attitude. I know that I have a narrow field for my eliquid pallette, and that's ok by me. That said, I didn't try a wide variety of the offered flavors until the huge sell off. I had tried Wakonda and loved it. I bought many (for me, a DIYer) bottles of CLS and quite a few bottles of GCD. I haven't tried the new "Virus", and only had a few bottles via the firesale - which I enjoyed a lot.


Re: the new recipes, I think the changes made are significant enough to warrant new names. If Kent chooses to promote the new recipes - and it's his business (both in terms of his company and his beeswax), cool. I appreciate the transparency around his reasons, thanks for that.

But the changes to Wakonda and CLS are enough that I personally don't foresee purchasing as much. I simply don't enjoy them enough anymore. Kinda like New Coke vs Coke Classic.

Kent, I suggest a Nicotickit "Classic" line. But it's your bag man! I'm grateful for the customer service, and loved the old eliquids! Seen quite a few lines I liked come and go. Really miss a local-to-me line that had an amazing black currant liquid. Few people like black currant liquids, so I'm left with fond memories of a niche product.

just wanted to say, totally agree! the new wakonda to old is just too muted...im not a huge custard fan im coming to realize but that one is even more noticeable as i mentioned about. they are still good, by no means bad, but when compared to the old recipe, night and day in the flavor department...

regarding the black currant liquid you are looking for. I know a few that you might be interested, one from a local vendor where im from, CT and not sure where the other is from, i buy it online... however, im not sure these are technically labeled as Black Currant but its definitely what they taste. PM me if interested and i can let you know the companies...

Got my order for Strawnilla in, but I think it's time for the new Radioactive...

I'm enjoying Sublime very much.
It's not as sweet as GCD, but I like the change.
I like having a less sweet option. It's also a nice base for mixology...add a little blueberry...Bam! Blueberry Cobler, with a crunchy cinnamon topping. Add some apple...Bam! Apple Crisp!

First one to put on my list of "Will buy again".
