This is good news though…thanks for sharing! Richard and Rhi are great folks.

Just wondering if emailing an order still applies? Haven’t ordered from Nomz for a while, last time I did, I was able to order through their website in 24’.

At this point I wouldn’t recommend Nomz at all…

@Wings4Life I have never placed an order via email but used the method @Lynda_Marie posted above. Sounds complicated, but once you do it once, it’s not, and I’ve ordered from them over 6 times since their CC payment company forced the change.

Not even with the “15 step mare’s nest”? Or an email? This is sad.

I would say “purchase at your own risk”
We got burned on a Mix-Along prize, which comes out of ELR staff pockets…
Won’t go into it further until the dispute case is closed:

I get it. The few orders that I’ve done with Nomz went well. I usually order from BC, but there are a few SSA flavors that I want that aren’t available with BC. If there are any alternative vendors that have a good selection of SSA flavors, then please point me towards them.

I’m sorry to hear about your dispute with “Nomz”. I know you have had no issues with them in the past and that there normally really good. Hopefully it will be resolved favourably towards you. Would be interested to hear what’s happened after it’s resolved. Good luck.

For context im in the UK.
Not sure if this helps but Nomnomz seem to have two parts to their company.
One is in Northern Ireland and one in England.
Northern Ireland is likely to be beholden to the European Union way but the England part wont.
Ive never had a problem with them and always arived within a day or two shipping across English land but on my last order i added some weight to it with 5ltr of VG and for some reason the order shipped from NI and it sat at the NI mail centre without moving for a whole week.
It might make a difference which Nomnomz you order from.

Nom Nomz in Ballymoney (30 Church Street) has closed down but their online store and the Coleraine location remain open.

I don’t have any suggestions for alternative vendors, which flavors were you looking for?

Basically the SSA Tiramisu and the Bakery Orange, but the Bakery Orange seems to have disappeared from their site since last week. I’ve been using the FA Tiramisu for years, and want to check SSA’s and Nomz;s versions.

I don’t have either of those, otherwise I would send them to you as I am de-stashing alot of flavors…
My gut feeling is there will be alot more disappearing…

Thanks, I appreciate that. Yeah I’m staring at least 100 bottles of flavoring like most of us.

I’m pretty sure @McDuckie can give his opinions on those. He was trying all of them at one point to make a certain recipe. I distinctly remember him mentioning the SSA.
Note: @Frunkster gave it kudos on the Flavor notes page and he’s picky, lol.

Yep the Tiramisu by SSA is a good starting point, but it needs help to become the full package.
As for the mention above about flavours going AWOL - I have noted several of my go to flavours are no longer available & it is making ordering things very problematic, a couple I really can’t be without are now no longer stocked & nowhere else in the UK to get them, those 2 being OOO Condensed Caramel Milke & OSDIY butterscotch malt, I’m going to have to do what you guys are doing in revers & order some stateside, the import taxes kill it though.
Maybe time to start networking with other mixers round the globe for some kind of pool, so we can all access the flavours we need, the laws are changing here in the UK soon & I suspect it’s going to get very problematic sourcing certain flavours & even some brands.
It’s always been an issue, liek the A-Sense brand from poland & Pure Flavours from Germany, also the Hangsen flavours which I rate very very highly, almost imossible to get your hands on & not just in the UK

Thanks, yes I definitely rely on the notes in the flavor list. Appreciate all the input in those. I’ve been making the same mix for a friend for years that starts with the FA Tiramisu, a cookie, a cream, a caramel and MF Dark Chocolate. The juice is too rich for me, but my friend loves it.
I placed the order with Nomz around 24 hours ago and haven’t received the invoice yet.

I wonder if Ta’ima (did I spell it right?) might be a worthwhile try?

Any invoice yet? Give it some time, since they are doing it manually.
