And one more happy camper here.
Got the Mystic today and sure enough a little extra bottle of liquid happiness included.
What's better than free stuff to go along with the free stuff.

Awesome service, Halo ...

Thank you for the generous offer and thank you all that helped us win. Can't wait to return the favor.

Stay cool west coast pplz.

Tribeca got an A- grade from ECF member's (and RY4 expert) "billherbst" on his Big RY4 Roundup thread. (For Jef: he's a regular on the "natural tobacco" thread). He had it at the top A grade tier for a long time and just a short while ago downgraded to A- but as he says, he changes his mind often, lolz, though Tribeca has remained at the two highest grade tiers from the get go. I've been vaping Tribeca since the beginning of my vaping journey 6 months ago. I lucked out in that my local vape shop carries it and it was my first e liquid purchase after trying out disposables. For me (and after it steeps), it turns into an amazing combo of a smokey sweet, carmelized vanilla tobacco = perfection. This juice I will forever love as it was the one the got me off the cigs. The thing I love most about Halo's liquids is that regardless of flavor preference, they are all superbly blended and have excellent performance.

So Ecig which sample did you get? I've tried all their tobaccos except for Captain Jack and Freedom. Gotta try those at some point cause they are not a part of any of the sample packs.

The little guy is sub-zero. Have not tried it yet but it smells good.

I gotta say tho that I'm not sure I can get used to the aftertaste of the Mystic. Love the cool taste of the menthol portion but on the exhale, there's a lingering taste that I associate with corn(weird I know). I've tasted that b4 when I attempted diy but I don't remember if it's ry4 or dk tab.

I wonder if there is something I can mellow out that flavor with but keep the cooling taste. Maybe even sweeten it.

Tiki is amazing!!! At first it tastes like im licking the glaze off a ham. Yum!! Then the tropical notes come through with a hint of menthol at the end, and its more like a hawaiian roast on the beach. Its almost savory in flavor. Very slightly fruity yet still tropical in sweetness and spices i even detect a hint of clove. Sooooo good!! Everything in this is perfectly balanced. It's another win Halo, and i haven't even tried my Tribecca yet.

(Even though i said ham there is no pork flavor here to avoid confusion.)

I've never tried Mystic but I do love their SubZero for a real menthol punch and as it steeps it gets sweeter.....YUM. Kringle's Curse is my fave. It's a creamy, sweetish peppermint. I would say that you could test a small batch by adding sweetner but I don't know about DIY or the sweetners that would work. I use Belgian Cocoa and Kringle's to fix the juices that seem off to my palate.

I loved loved loved it too !!! I get the same flavor profile as you and I find it similar to Tribeca in some ways though it's a totally different juice but sort of the same vibe. Halo's juice blends are so beautifully layered and complex that I have a hard time describing them or pulling the flavor notes apart. Yay another WIN for Halo !!!

Sorry about the multi posting but I don't know how to use the multi quote feature. I clicked on the icon but nothing happened.

Happy Monday Halo Nation. New flavor is being bottled as we speak, not sure what day it will actually be available for purchase but I managed to sneak a few bottles and they will be on their way out to some of our biggest fans later today! Looking forward to your thoughts! Surprise vape mail is even better than regular vape mail I will also run a mini number game when the flavor is available so be on the look out for that next week!

From the Halo Chat thread

Next week from the looks of it :)

I'm going to let it sit a while and see what happens.
You're not lying when you say "punch".
I flinched backwards with my first puff of the sub-zero. I felt the cooling sensation all the way to the top of my head lol
Lingers really nice for quite some time too.
I'm planning on ordering some creme de menthe flavor to diy, maybe that'll go good with the Mystic.

Try Menthol Ice or Kringle's Curse!

Here's the skee-lo folks:

In regards to the most popular, TRIBECA, I had the unfortunate coincidence of vapor's tongue and couldn't taste a thing. Letting it steep for 2 weeks then we will see. I did however mix a tad in with the MYSTIC, because I got the same weird aftertaste (kinda like sucking on a nickel), and it seemed to help. Love the MYSTIC otherwise and I am sure a bit of steeping and it will be my new fav. As for the SUBZERO, woe! I love menthol/mint flavors and this one just tops the scale. I did experience the same aftertaste as MYSTIC, just more pronounced, so I really hope steeping will mellow that out. In all three cases I am confident that after 2 weeks and a bit of tinkering I will have a good rotation.

On another note, I have an Aunt who has been smoking 'cowboy' branded analogs for 30+ years and recently had a bad experience with 510 kit (cost and taste she says). I am planning to give her a drip atty and a nano clearo with the TRIBECA. Any thoughts on if the TRIBECA will work to aid in transition?
