I'm interested to know if anybody else hase experienced inconsistencies between different boatels of e-liquids? I've just opened a new 20ml bottle of RY4 and there is very little taste to it.

Yes it's always happened. Sometimes the odd rogue batch, and I seem to recall sneaky suppliers radically changing the flavour recipe in the distant past. I once had some TW chocolate that tasted of nothing, so I presumed I couldn't taste chocolate until (some months later) I decided to give chocolate another chance and mixed some from scratch and realised the premixed had been way out.  I had a delicious bottle of something from a different UK supplier once, and when I reordered it was so different to the first I was shocked. The poor supplier had the bottle returned for another which turned out to be exactly the same but from a different batch... so my guess was that the first bottle was the one that was different to the norm. I was gutted! I didn't have the heart to return it the second time but to his credit, he did offer.

There are often very slight discrepancies between batches anyway Sad

Hope so! At least there's a shop you can take it to, and you can prove you're not suffering from madness when they try it!

Scott,

I haven't noticed this with the concentrates so it's probably just an off mix. I hope you get that sorted.

My experience here is that it has been happening alot lately. I have a feeling this is why TW is ditched the Decadent Vapours, Red Label and now Patriot Range....and going with their own line.

Well, I've found inconsistencies with everyone I've bought juice from, some more than others of course. But the odd rogue bottle has always cropped up. Consistently good is rare in the case of e-liquid.

So... this can only be good news!

well rather relying on people making liquids for other companies and your own production is big and inconsistencies occur but if your making it all in house and can make it all form one stored mix or recipe then this should be a non issue hence why i think the move to in house manufacturing of tw liquids is an awesome move and should cut this issue out

+1 Kenneth. Consistent eliquid would be amazing. A lot of what I have kicking around in terms of eliquid is the stuff I couldn't vape because it wasn't good for one reason or another. There's not a lot I don't like (maybe some of the concentrates and a couple of eliquids), but it's mostly below par, didn't vape well, flavour too weak etc. Some I re-use by mixing but much of it will never be vaped. I'm sure that's the case with everyone. I should add at this point that its from a range of suppliers, NOT solely TW eliquid!

If we add up that in cost, it's a lot of waste. Nice to think that could soon be a thing of the past. If TW are a pound or two above competitors for similar 'quality' liquid ranges, but they have a consistency lacked elsewhere, then I pretty much know who would get my custom. No point amassing yet more 'dud' bottles, it's a false economy!  Smiley

If anything i would expect the flavour premix to be much cheaper than anywhere else or any other ranges.

If you look at the concentrates they are double the ml for the same £ you pay on other ranges so really £ for ML its an absolute winner all round
