Goal:
To show that vaping can be enjoyable even if you are on a budget. All items reviewed were purchased out of my own pocket to spend my money like yours.
I promise to review every product honestly, sparing no feelings and taking no prisoners. Such is the Wyatt Derp Way.
Hey there homovapiens and welcome to another edition of Budget Buddy vaping.
I recently purchased some eliquid to review from VaporAlley - Stroll down the alley for great products. The juices I purchased for the purpose of this review were Apple Pie and Dry Blend. I want to note that all the eliquid sold at VaporAlley - Stroll down the alley for great products are only available in 10ml size bottles and are all mixed at 75/25 PG to VG ratio. I'm vaping 18mg strength eliquid for these reviews.
It is important to note that juice reviews are entirely subjective as every person will taste things differently due to difference in taste-buds. If we did have the same taste-buds, we might be related and you might owe me some money, that's just how it works with relatives.
The reason I've decided to do juice reviews at all is to inform you as to whether the juice tastes, to me, accurate for the description of the juice and to inform as to whether the juice is priced well for budget vapers.
Both juices are being vaped at 3.7v on an eGo style battery with the juices themselves being loaded into a Dual Coil cartomizer. Each juice has been vaped for two days to give them a fair shake as some juices either grow on you or take some getting used to.
Apple Pie 18mg 75PG/25VG:
The liquid inside the bottle definitely gives of a hint of apple but not much else.
The inhale of the juice does give a subtle taste of apple but unfortunately no taste of any type of baked good for the crust flavor of the pie. I also tasted a strong nutty flavor to the inhale, which I would best describe as the taste of burnt peanuts.
On the exhale, I still tasted a strong burnt peanut flavor along with a potpurri like flavor. No, I haven't eaten potpurri, at least not in a few months (okay days), but that is how I liken the additional flavor on the exhale. I can say there was good vapor production due to the 25% VG mixture.
All in all, very slight Dekang-like Apple flavor but no payoff for Apple Pie flavor. I will just have to settle for a 50 cent apple pie from McD's for now.
Dry Blend 18mg 75PG/25VG:
The liquid inside the bottle gives a scent of nutty type liquid similar to Dekang 555. There was no description listed on the website to tell me exactly what Dry Blend was to taste like. Based on past experience, I deduced it was to be close to a Pipe Tobacco or Cigar flavor so tobacco like flavor is what I was hoping for. Or the juice could taste like psoriasis which was unbeknownst to me as there is no description.
The inhale of the juice gives a very unpleasant burnt peanut flavor, worse than that of the apple pie juice.
On the exhale, I still tasted a strong burnt peanut flavor along with a parmesan cheese like flavor to it as well which makes the exhale even more unpleasant than the inhale. The exhaled vapor from this juice leaves a lingering order of burnt peanut and parmesan cheese in the room that I'd been vaping it in. The exhaled vapor's scent lasted for around 30 minutes to 1 hour depending on whether I opened up the windows or not. Again, good vapor production due to the 25% VG mixture.
All in all, very unpleasant flavor.
Price feedback:
The juice on Vapor Alley's website is listed at $3.99 for 10ml. Shipping costs for the site are $3.00 to ship so you would pay $6.99 or $.70 per ml for a sample bottle of eliquid. If you found yourself liking the juice, you could obtain 30ml of juice with shipping for $14.97, which broken down brings the price to $.50 per ml.
Shipping time was fast as I received my order within 4 business days of placing it during the Christmas Holiday.
To sum things up, I would NOT recommend the juice based off of how the juices tasted to me. I would recommend the site though for the pricing of their accessories, especially the pricing of their mod batteries. The current coupon code for the site is "ecf" for 5% off your purchase. If you would like to give the juice a try anyway, it is a great price for sampling.
In closing, I would like to say thank you to my fellow homovapiens. Please keep the peace out there and let's keep vaping for a better tomorrow.

sadly I didn't win, and it looks like they didn't use the winner's banner either
