Got my KBV 555 today and it smells good, letting it steep before I try it and BWB's 555 Exotic. Got TVR 555 on the way, and now I have to go check out Vixen Vapors 555.
What is it about 555 that a select few,like us, keep looking for the perfect one? I just know that when I first started vaping it was one of my all time favorite vapes, but in the passing years trying so many juices, 555 kinda got lost for me.
But I crave it now, so I'm going to keep on hunting till I find the one that takes me to 555 bliss :)

I vape TVR 555 at 50/50 (currently 18mg). It's been a consistent, smooth vape (and I've had at least 120 mls of it). It's not in your face at all, but very unobtrusive yet flavorful for an ADV - for me, and my GF. That said, I sometimes mix this half and half with Bobas. This gives me a mild, sweet cigar flavor that I really enjoy. YMMV. If you have some Bobas, try it. In any case, TVR 555 is a keeper in this house :)

Been stealth vaping it at work all day and am now home for lunch, so I'm going to try KBV cinnamon roll for the second half of my shift. But when I get home the 555 is goin in the tank :D

That's great news. So there's another one I need to try.

I sampled my BWB 555 Exotic again a couple of days ago, and it has matured very nicely. It has now been steeping for at least a couple of weeks, so it is ready to vape.

Unfortunately, however, I'm going through one of those "dead taste buds" phases, so I'm using that as an opportunity to vape through some of my less desirable juices that I need to get rid of. I ain't waisting BWB 555 Exotic on dead taste buds.

I am really enjoying my KickBass 555. The BWB 555e is also good but very different than the KB.
I like my 555's by day and my RY4's by night (mostly)
I have ordered two new ones of each from two new (new to me) vendors.
Bee Liquid: #575 - Their take on the 555 and their RY4.1
Crystal E Liquid: 555 and their RY4

Still keeping a tank filled with my Spring Vapor Black Label 555 : )

I see a lot of posts describing a hazelnut taste to 555 tobacco. Is that the nut flavor for a typical 555?

I used to vape some local brand USA mix, which has a very nutty taste to it (love it) that a cannot point out. I've tried to make it myself. So i started testing nuts, like hazelnut, almond, walnut, etc. But none of these tasted like the nutty taste of that USA.
Then i ordered a 555 (3Five) from Inawera, hoping it had the same nutty taste. But unfortunately, the nut taste in that one comes from hazelnut (very much compared to FA Hazelnut). Hence the question above. If all 555 use hazelnut i can stop diving into 555's because that won't get me any closer to the nutty taste i'm searching for.

On a positive note for you 555 lovers, you should try Heather's Heavenly Vapes "Heavenly Tobacco". It is a light tobacco that is somewhat sweet with a nutty overtone. It's not a traditional 555 (to my understanding of what a 555 "should" be), and in fact HHV lists it as a Ry4, but I think a lot of 555 lovers would like it.

It is a quality juice that you might enjoy even if you decide it's not really a 555. Right now it's my favorite juice.
