Hiding up a tree
I have only tried two from Five Pawns, Grandmaster & Gambit.

I was expecting these to be the most delicious juices I could ever imagine, but Gambit for me did not get anywhere close to my expectations. When it first arrived it was disgusting, I could not vape it, really harsh & tasted nothing like the incredible apple pie description. After leaving the lid off for nearly a week (to get rid of the alcohol taste), then letting it steep for another month it is still nowhere near to being decent. Far too sweet, too much caramel/cream mix without enough of the apple pie.
I was expecting to love this juice, but I am having to force myself to vape it just so it isn't money wasted.

As for Grandmaster, I first tried it in a Kayfun, out of the box it was very strong banana, but now that has mellowed somewhat. In a Kayfun it is a nice vape, almost savoury now.
I went a step too far with it, I loaded it into my 0.6ohm dual coil magma (clone) and when the flavour is increased (along with the vapour) it becomes a very odd beast, some vapes will be pleasant, but some will taste like 'summer in Cornwall'. For me it is best slightly muted (although still flavoursome) in a Kayfun.


*Summer in Cornwall - Mainly cattle farms, mixed with heat, the smell in the air is silage. Think of that taste you get when you stand too close to someone wearing way too much perfume, replace the perfume with silage, that is the taste of Summer in Cornwall.
 
I picked up some FP grandmaster, gambit, queenside and absolute pin. Was really looking forward to queenside, chucked it a 1.2 ohm kayfun and immediately vaped like crazy. I then nearly spewed and quickly washed that .... out, was disgusting. Grandmaster I would give a 6/10, absolute pin is a bit different 5/10 and gambit I really like but would still only give 8/10. Really disappointed in these juices. Not worth the money.

Castle Long is among my favorite top two flavors. A Kentucky bourbon flavor, with subtle notes of coconut, almonds, vanilla bean, and brown sugar. This is my occassional "evening treat" flavor.

Although not a tobacco flavor, it reminds me of my days as a pipe smoker when my pipe tobacco of choice was Borkum Riff's Bourbon.
