Alright everyone, I wanted to share my story here in hopes of preventing other from making the mistakes I did. I got my first kit recently, a double kit actually ( 2 iClear16 tanks with an ego twist and a vision spinner bettery). First puff was with High Caliber juice- fantastic! Soon I wanted more variety. Went to the local shop and picked up a 3 for 12$ deal of Tasty Puff juice. Cleaned out my tank of blue raspberry, let it dry, and put in the Tasty's Chronic Hypnotic. First hit- I almost coughed to death. Dry, burnt, alcohol, horrid taste with close to no flavor. Hopeful, I kept puffing and priming in hopes of soaking the juice in, no improvement. First instinct- i ruined the wick or coil from something being wet that shouldnt be. So I fill the unused tank with Tasty's Joosy Fruit. Same horrible taste with a bubblegum aftertaste. Ok, so 2 ruined coils/wicks i guess? I pick up a bottom fed tank from the shop for the meantime and order 4 new heads (wick + coil etc). Fill up the bottom fed tank with Tasty's vanilla. This time, its even worse due to the lower quality tank, cant even stand the smell of the vapor. This is when i knew something was up. Cleaned all my tanks, filled up the iclear with the original juice, and oh no, still disgusting burnt alcohol taste even after an hour of puffing . Very confused, i recleaned everything and noticed something. All my equipment still reaked of the tasty puff juice (strong alcohol nasty smell). So my crazy Idea was to boil the heads, wick coil and all, and stir gently. After i finally got the remaining juice off I filled up my original iclear tank with the original blue raspberry and BAM, tastes great. So it was not until i boiled my equipment that i got the absolutely horrible taste of Tasty Puff's juice out of my equipment. Possibly a bad batch of juice, but doubtful since I tried 3 different flavors. Of course I figure this all out AFTER i ordered all the new heads :(. So in my opinion, avoid using Tasty Puff as a vape juice at all costs unless you want to boil your equipment!

Tasty Puffs is flavoring. Normally dripped on herbs or pipe tobacco, cigars, even cigs. I thought about trying it in my DIY e-liquid but glad I decided not to. I have tried Tasty Puff on filtered cigars and it was ok. I wouldn't recommend it for vaping though. But then again, maybe it works well for diy juice. I just didn't try it myself because it didn't "feel" right.

Its actually just alcohol based flavorings designed actually burn with a analog. Sold typically in headshops, and not really designed for nicotine in all reality. I tried it once, hated it, discovered you can light it on fire in a pyrex dish which made a decent (short lived) alternative to incense

Sad thing is that there are plenty of B&Ms out there like the one in my town that will try to convince you that it's a quality product and that you really need to get some. I could so totally see the owners of my local b&m and probably the one where the OP got his from trying to pass it off as e-liquid. It's not a always a fault to be ignorant but to take advantage of someone's ignorance just to make a quick buck is despicable and shameful. I feel for the OP and I'm thankful for his desire to help others avoid the same mistake.
