This is exactly what I am talking about... another irresponsible review... come on dude... you gave no information on flavors, strength, steeping time, equipment used.... expectations... What do you normally like?
In any case... if you just got it, let it steep a week or two.
This juice wasn't made in a vat 6 months ago... it was likely made fairly recently...
....
Bluemist vaping is hit and miss for me... While I am not their #1 fan... I applaud what they do and I keep searching for a winner...
Things I like about Bluemist vaping...
1. Unique Tobacco Absolutes
2. They do attempt to use a variety of different flavorings so all the juices don't taste the same...
3. Decent quality base and nic...
4. Customer service is good...
5. Price is excellent...
Of the five I have tried, I liked Smooth and Hypermint the best. (They were all 16mg, 80%PG and Regular flavor. They steeped for one full month before I vaped them...) I got three in the classifieds...
Smooth is a really interesting flavor. It's menthol tobacco and a hint of chocolate... Definitely an "in your face" flavor... that I felt in my throat... The sum of these three basic flavors produced something a bit unexpected... perhaps as robust as BWB's casablanca... it was anything but smooth... good though... somewhat addictive... not too sweet... I would probably buy this again...
Hypermint tastes like a concoction of different mints and menthols... As promised, it cleared my sinuses... and gave me a killer throat hit. A bit on the sweet side for me... but a keeper nonetheless...
Caramel Tobacco is perhaps their best seller... I don't feel it would be terribly fair for me to review it since I suddenly feel repulsed by any kind of caramel flavoring... On one hand, I can see why it's popular... a bit heavy on the sweet for me... and I would have liked the tobacco to come through more. Overall, it is a good liquid...
Robacco - Worth a try... this might be someone's all day tobacco vape... I believe it is the seedman's tobacco absolute recipe... though I could be wrong. It has shades of BWB's Bacco... but a bit nuttier... I don't think think this would be my #1 tobacco... but it's still a keeper for me... I am thinking that it will grow on me... I reach for this one when I want a "manly vape"
Robacco Menthol - I have been on a relentless hunt for the perfect menthol... I was thinking that menthol would be the perfect addition to the robacco... and that it might have the potential to be somewhat like Puresmoker's silver leaf menthol (which is my fav)... but it didn't seem to blend... to mesh the way I hoped for... instead, The menthol tastes sweet and somewhat overpowered the tobacco... I am letting this one steep some more...
Overall, I am impressed with the quality and effort you get for your money with bluemist...
I wish that there was a flavor that I could connect with more strongly - but at this time... I haven't found my special go to vape from them... the flavoring is just a "tad" off for me... but it's almost there on everything I tried.
I guess the best way to say it is that there lacks a certain refinement in the flavor for me...
Refinement is something I think companies like Halo, vapors etc, nHaler Ocatne, eLiquidPlanet etc do well...
I think people who like BWB, want2vape and other liquids I like might want to give it a try...
I think that Bluemist would benefit from not offering so many options for vg/pg and flavor strengths... I think this leads to inconsistency in perception and they should offer the liquid in it's optimal form...
Personally, if it were a 70/30 PG/VG mix and about 1/3 less on flavor and sweetener... I would probably be a regular customer.
In any case... if you just got it, let it steep a week or two.

lasttango, now that's a way to do a review. I'm just sorry I stay away from tobacco flavors, I like something way away from those kind as I never liked the "taste" of cigs, sounds crazy I know.
Thanks.
I really feel like Bluemist is almost there...
...but I completely understand the disappointment of the OP -

You are absolutely right! I'm new to the ECF and should have posted more responsibly. Sorry if I offended - will let my palate "mature" a bit. The juices that I ordered may have been bad - there was something really wrong - possibly I stored them improperly?
Learned from your post and thanks!

no offense brother... your opinions matter... I just appointed myself to the ninnypickin' squad and aim to get reviewers to be more descriptive... and your palate may not need to mature... I am convinced that after 2 years, mine sucks ;-)
newer vapers are said to require stronger sweeter flavors... but who knows... welcome ;-)

My reactions to Bluemist are all over the map. Along with FreedomSmokeUSA, Bluemist was one the first vendors I ever bought juice from. I bought 14 juices and 8 flavor concentrates from them, mostly 3ml sample bottles, in two purchases last November and January. Robacco and Caramel Tobacco were favorites of mine at that early stage of my vaping journey. I "outgrew" them fairly quickly, however, since---as Last Tango notes---they lack a certain refinement, so both of the huge 120ml bottles of Robacco and Caramel Tobacco I bought in January 2011 are still 95% full. I agree also with LT that a bewildering array of (too many) customizing options may be counterproductive for a juice vendor.
Bluemist's regular pricing is quite inexpensive, and their big bottle sales and clearance deals are simply unmatched. However, I haven't ordered from them since January. Other vendors have won my loyalty and confidence with a higher ratio of hits to misses. My one interaction with Rob (the owner of Bluemist) was more than satisfactory, however, so Bluemist remains on my list of "good" vendors. I'm just not in love with many of their juices.
This thread inspired me to dig out some of the Bluemist sample bottles I bought last winter and try them atty-dripped again---Rootbeer Float, Coconut Cream, Blackberry Cobbler, Buttercream Cupcake, Bearclaw, Belgian Waffle, Peppermint, and Snow (menthol). All the juices still had a slight chemical taste, even after nine months of aging in the juice cellar. The flavorings used to make those admittedly old juices were clearly synthetics; the organic versions of similar flavor combinations now available from numerous vendors are cleaner tasting to me and better facsimiles of fruits and desserts. Best of the Bluemist bunch were Bearclaw, Peppermint, and Snow, which were pretty good, if not stunningly great.
I also revisited Robacco and Caramel Tobacco. I was immediately reminded of what I didn't like about Caramel Tobacco---the flavors are bold, but too raw and unrefined for my current tastes. I do, however, understand why it's one of Bluemist's bestsellers. Vapers who like a "flavor slam" will love it. By contrast, I was pleasantly surprised at Robacco's rich spiciness and nice tobacco bite, and I have returned it to my large club of active tobacco vapes.
For me, Robacco is the pick of the litter, although Peppermint and Snow might be very good used sparingly as mixers. A couple of drops of either could liven up some of the many juices that didn't move me and now languish in my juice cellar.
