This is *not* their original liquid and no steep will fix it (25 June 2022)

If you want the actual *original* Milkman liquid you will be sorely disappointed because this is a recipe that bares very little relation to it. They don't even seem to have really even put a lot of effort into getting it right either, probably because they know they can probably sell it on the name alone with customers assuming they have bad nicotine or haven't steeped it enough. Like Mother's Milk this was one of the old massively popular liquids that were only as good as they were and had a high quality "brand" base taste type, usually made completely using flavourings containing diacetyl and other things that are no longer allowed to be sold as commercial vape liquid. The actual base flavour manufacturers have tried and done impressive work but their lack of big breakthroughs except on specific flavours (and still never as good imo) suggests that it simply cannot be recreated without them, if it could they'd have managed it years ago I suspect. Sadly it seems that this is another once excellent liquid that is now borderline tasteless thanks to America's crazy new vaping regulations and liquid manufacturers facing an impossible task while also waiting to be shut down by more ludicrous and clearly malicious regulation. There's a few amazing DIY recipes available, people who are very good at mixing have put so much work into recreating the real Milkman flavour but it was such an unusual taste that getting it exactly right may never happen, some of the flavours could be anything as they all interact in weird ways but they are till close enough to be worth looking into making as it's as close as we'll likely ever see again. Just don't mistake the other "Milkman" made by One Hit Wonder Milkman for this, that's just a generic strawberry milk with insane amounts of sweetener added, the Milkman that came in the little cardboard boxes and nice bottles was made by Vaping Rabbit. I believe the original owners make very different liquid now with very different branding which probably tells you all you need to know, I can't help but feel that the word Original being added to the name as been done for several very specific reasons but for more morally dubious ones as it first seems, they know that the ingredients of the "proper" one cannot be made into or sold as a commercial liquid but they want you to assume it's because they have so many on offer that they're trying to make it less confusing when it's actually aimed at making old customers buy something that isn't what it seems (to be fair I'm sure they'd sell gallons of the stuff if they were allowed) Unless some lucky person is holding onto masses of older stock and really likes vaping it probably no longer exists except as a reference mixture in a lab or as an entry in a register of someone's trade secrets. The Milkman does still have some good liquids despite all that weirdness, their Vanilla Custard is a surprisingly decent one for a company that doesn't just make hundreds of varities until they find one people buy more than once (e.g. The Doughnut King, Chef's Flavours original concentrate of the same name was *very* good but isn't too hard to recreate, the change was so blatant that I don't know why they weren't just honest with people) and their blueberry and chocolate ones are still worth trying but the absolute best, genuine classic original liquid that you would see on the counter of every pop-up vape shop that appeared around your own house seems like it may be gone for good unless someone stumbles across some odd extra ingredient that adds that missing taste/mouth feel. The fact that they sell this as being the original liquid just seems a bit wrong to me, unless by "Original" they mean some random recipe they tried before someone stumbled over the big one (which I would bet money is how it happened, it was so unusual and would change sometimes that doing that by design just seems to me very unlikely, not even Suicide Bunny ever managed that unless you count the "special editon" version that was almost certainly a lost container of the stuff that had been steeping so long it might as well have been pure VG). People say they used to use their own super vanilla extracting super powers and magic etc, which might be true, but if it ever was it's long gone from there. Stick some nic in VG and you have a bottle of this junk.

Didn't live up to my expectation. (14 July 2021)

I remember back in 2015 when I started vaping, This had became my most favourite e-liquid. It used to have a rich creamy milky flavour which made me fall in love with this brand. I always had this stocked before I stopped vaping in 2016/17. Four years later when I re-started vaping, this was the first flavour I bought. And I am hugely disappointed. The current flavour does not even get closer to what I once used to. It lacks classic creamy and milky flavour. I barely felt any presence of those while vaping. Maybe there was a subtle taste which I was missing. Other than that in terms of clouds and juice it does a great job, The best result I've got mixing up with other flavours.

Disappointed (23 February 2021)

Unfortunately the best thing about this juice is the packaging it comes in, not good

Lovely taste, but makes my mouth sad! (02 November 2016)

This is an amazing tasting juice which produces lovely clouds. You can really taste the vanilla and the milky exhale is lovely.

Sadly, it's high VG content gives me vaper's tongue almost instantly making it hard to get through a tank of it, let alone a bottle.

Such a shame because they've got everything else so right with this one.

vapeable (22 October 2015)

not overly fussed with this liquid, very average. nothing special, nothing to really write about. its not a bad liquid, but not a good one either. not buying again, price is way over the top for product. doesnt taste like milk, more like a musky...nothingness....

I don't see the Hype (01 September 2015)

The smell from this juice is a lovely fresh bakery type smell, unfortunately the taste just doesn't come out. Maybe it needs some steeping to get the flavours, but right out of the box it's just not hitting the mark. A little harsh on the inhale at 20W on a Kanger Subtank Mini.

Don't believe the hype. (27 August 2015)

Presentation of this eliquid is out of this world. Easly one of the best bits of packaging I've ever seen.

First thing I noticed when I opened the box is that this comes in a plastic bottle. I've purchased eliquid for a third of the price and it's still come in glass bottles.

The aroma is intriguing but the flavour isn't even remotely close to what they've advertised. There's just an overpowering caramel, sour milk, something reminiscent of a bakery product and absolutely no fruit, all mushed together with no definition between flavours.

I've let it air out for 24 hours which has helped to tone down the flavour slightly but I think this might need a couple of weeks of steeping before it comes to life.

Considering how much I paid, and how much hype this gets, I'm less than impressed.
