First, a disclaimer. Taste is subjective. I may like it , you may hate it. AND, I'm no professional, I don't do reviews usually. In fact, I've done one, so it takes a bit before I'm willing to give an opinion. That being said, all these juices were tried on a 10440 Precise with a 510-808 adapter and Vapornine turbo carts.
Dealing with Don was a great experience. He answered some questions about his flavors for me really quickly and once I ordered they got here fast. Thursday night order I believe and in my mailbox Monday. I love his bottles! The 30ml ones have the little needle type droppers like Tastyvapor. All the juices are really light in color and smell great, with no chemically smell or perfuminess. All 4 were 21mg and 70/30 pg/vg.
Backwoods Brew - This is his version of 555. I hate to disappoint all the DK 555 lovers, but this might not be your thing. If you're hoping for the real peanutty earthy taste, you may find yourself not liking this. He says his goal with these juices is to emphasize the tobacco and have the flavorings in the background and he hits it perfectly that way. I taste the tobacco right up front with a little undertone of the nut. The nuttiness doesn't come close to overpowering the tobacco.
Applewood - Hard to explain this one. I think I expected an apple taste more, but what it really seems like to me is like an actual applewood smoke. It's got all the tobacco with a clean, kind of mildly sweet smokiness. And again the tobacco is right there with the other flavors hanging out behind the scenes.
Honey Flue Cured - This one was tied for my favorite. A great tobacco taste with a little sweetness that rounds it all off nicely. Nothing overpowering, just right.
Honey Flue Nut - This was the other star for me. Just like the honey flue cured but with a little nuttiness mixed in. I really liked it. All the flavors just seem balanced right. Nothing is trying to jump out and be the star of the show. They all just play together nicely and the end result is a nice mellow, slightly sweet, tiny bit nutty, enjoyable flavor.
All 4 of these juices had a great throat hit if that's important to you. Personally for me it's not a big deal. At 70/30 like he mixes them, they make decent vapor at 3.7v. Honestly, the vapor was very reminiscent of a real cigarette to me. The biggest thing to me was that all of these juices just looked clean. Nice and clear. And then you find out that clean look is followed with a really clean taste. No aftertaste, chemical taste or smell, or perfume.
I'll definitely order again. The customer service was outstanding and the end product reflects Don's dedication to what he's trying to bring all of us.
I might add, I'm not usually a tobacco flavor person so I was personally surprised by how much I liked all these.
I should add that you won't find a website. Get in touch with Dkrom68 on here or do a search for Backwoods Brew.
