How long to steep GCD?

[rosehips]

I got a bottle of GCD from Nicoticket on a bunch of strong recommendations, but...the taste I got from it right out of the bottle was sort of like putting cinnamon right on your tongue. Harsh, powdery and kind of unpleasant.

Does this go away with steeping? How long on average should it take?

Mine was a strong cinnamon flavor also, I've had mine for 15 days but think I'll wait another 15 before I try it. Some of the old timers will chip in and let us know.

Yes, "in your face" cinnamon is what you get before steeping. I almost fell over my first time, it was so strong and so unexpected. It did not take long at all to calm down, though! It's delicious in the morning with coffee and is also a great addition to spice up other vapes.

Ah, does the dry sort of taste calm down as the cinnamon does? I really want to like this juice.

Yes, I believe the "dry" taste you are perceiving is part of the cinnamon experience. It all calms down in a short period of time. Most people really like this juice, myself included. But if it just isn't for you, there is a swap thread where you can find something that might suit you better. Give it a good shake and try it every few days for a few weeks and see what you think.
Hope it works out!

When I first got mine it was in your face cinnamon, I left to steep for about a month and the flavors evened out very nicely. Now I can taste just about every aspect of it roll, icing, and cinnamon.
