I have said in quite a few threads that I've been searching for a juice to replace Puresmoker's Cash Tab. For the last month I've bought juices from some of the top sites. Most of these are pretty good but not what I would call a all day vape, IMO. I've been reading real good reviews on Vapor Station, Tampa in particular. It looked like this could be the one.
I ordered from Vapor Station last Monday and had the order in my hands on Friday. I ordered Tampa, 35 mg and frisco 35mg. Here's what I found;

Tampa- 35mg. This is a very clean tasting Tobacco flavor. It has a medium tobacco flavor that I compare to a L&M full flavor analog. Tampa has no funny after taste, no pepper, anise, perfume.. It has a decent throat hit, excellent vapor. Of all the tobacco flavored juices I've vaped in almost two years, THIS IS THE BEST! I can see that this will be my everyday vape. For those looking for a no nonsence tobacco, check it out. From 1-10. Flavor 9, vapor 9, TH 9. I gave this juice some good marks after searching and vaping some pretty above average juices.

Frisco -35mg. I really haven't put the Tampa down enough to give a real review yet. Frisco is another good tasting, clean, good vapor and TH juice. I vaped it for a few hours and this is enough to say that this is another special juice. I will review when I get to know it better. So far, I like it.

Vapor Station will be a top supplier in my house!

I'm really really wanting to try Tampa!! I've just spent too much money trying to get that analog flavor. I'm still smoking and think flavor is a big part of it. If analogs were half as nasty as these converted vapors claim they woulda never started, IMO. My latest bust was purecig. Now there's somethin nasty for ya!!

Give me a good reason to try it, lol.. Please.. (I gotta justify it in my head)

I agree wholeheartedly with this. Based on the tobacco flavors I have tried, I never would have chosen vaping over smoking if I hadn't gotten lucky with the Vapor Station tobaccos early on. They are still pretty much the only straight tobacco flavor I will vape. I was an ultra light vaper, so my daily vape was Texas (until I dropped to 0 nic), but I also had Tampa now and then, and it was somewhere between a regular and a light to me. Apparently someone somewhere decided that tobacco flavors should taste like lawn clippings and the bottom of a grill, and VS has managed to avoid that. I'm glad you found them!!

I just want to add this to my thread, Tampa has a Medium flavor, it doesn't taste like a analog. Many search for a analog flavor and feeling. You won't find it no matter who you buy from. Tampa is a great replacement however. Many juices out there have a good throat hit, but have a back ground taste to them. You all know what I mean. I can vape them once in a while for a throat hit, but can't do it all day. Vapor Station has the type that I can. Thanks Vapenstein, it was because of threads you posted that I even gave it a shot. My main point is for those that are new, don't expect Tampa to be a analog copy. You can expect a great tasting tobacco flavored juice with a good throat hit.

Yeah I agree. Tampa doesn't taste like a cigarette. It hits like a full flavor though. It tastes better than any cigarette.

There are some more cigarette-like juices:
Vermont Vapor Smoke
BlueMist Vaping Robacco
Vapors Etc Captain Jack (this is pipe tobacco, but it is more like burning tobacco than most)

Those three are more like smoking than Tampa, but nothing gives me as much pure, unadulterated "I need a smoke and I need it NOW" pleasure as Tampa does.

Vapor Station uses tobacco absolute. I do feel that tobacco absolute makes a juice that is more "smoke" like than juice using natural extract or artificial flavoring. Vapor Station's tobaccos are more delicate than most vendors who are using tobacco absolute and I don't get any smoke or ashtray from them at all. I think they have a really exceptional set of juices, the flavors are spectacular.

Cash Tab from Puresmoker was a little more harsh compared to Tampa. For those that are Vapor station regulars, which flavor is the most harsh of the tobacco flavors? also which one do you think has the most TH. I like Tamp's TH, not harsh but you feel it. I'm going to give the Frisco a turn tonight. I'll vape it for a few days straight. I like to do this as it gives you the best chance to know what a juice is all about. Thanks for heads up on the other Tobacco goodies Vapenstein! Will try them out. I hate to have only one juice I like. That didn't work out well when Puresmoker pulled the plug on Cash Tab. Still can't believe they won't say where they bought it from. Not a hint. Oh well, won't be buying anything from them.

Thanks, I'll try the Tenn next. Didn't get a chance to try Frisco last night. Worked late and of course Monday night Football. I've got 4 fantasy football leagues! Will try tonight. I did get to sample Marlboro USA Mix from Stricklyejuice. I ordered it the same day I ordered the Tampa. This juice is pretty darn good. It's a crap shoot with Dekang. This juice has a good analog TYPE taste and excellent throat hit. I'll keep a bottle around for the times I really get a cigg craving.
