People are getting all sorts of aggressive in here! Anyway, you may find that some vendors are not for you, good thing there are a whole bunch to choose from. I have tried a few from FSUSA and I thoroughly enjoy Maxboro, but that's me and MY tastes. I was not a fan of their RY4, I am vaping Wyatt Erp right now, but probably won't re-order it. The sample of Water/Razzle they sent me was not to my liking, but I enjoyed the TH from 24 mg. I was happy as hell they were nice enough to give it to me. Some people rave about certain vendors and/or flavors, some people think they are crap. To each their own.

So far in my limited experience, I LOVE Backwoods Brew. Some people don't care for it or consider just so/so.

Keep trying different flavors from different vendors, if you don't like something, put it aside and try it again in a couple of weeks, you may change your mind about it. Also if you happen to be in a pinch, even flavors you don't like so much still give you nicotine.

Good Luck :)

Just to reinforce the point about everyone's taste being different, a couple of people in this thread really like the Wyatt Earp. I ordered some, and while I can vape it, I'm not that impressed. But I really like the Cherry(100%VG) I purchased from them, and the free 3ml sample of Slow Screw was pretty good, too. But for tobacco flavor and TH, I was impressed by the USA mix from Liberty Flights. So I'm no "fanboy" of anyone, but I appreciate good service, nice people, quick delivery, and purity of the product. In fact, I might place purity ahead of flavor, so I will be ordering from FSUSA in the future. But to each his/her own.

Whereas I love Wyatt Earp and couldn't stand the Slow Screw sampler I got. Just proving the point :)

Purecig is supposed to taste sort of nasty like cigarettes.

I am very happy with FSUSA. I adore their oRYental 4 (a sweet caramelly tobacco) and their new Voodoo and a number of others.

Are you letting your nose get a whiff of the vapor? Most of taste is aroma. Cigs blow their smoke all over your face so you can't help smell them. With ecigs you have to remember to let your nose have some.

Their samplers are all 24mg. That's just the way it is. I try the free ones briefly in a cart or by dripping but I don't vape the whole thing. If I like it, I buy the juice in my own nicotine level.

I rate samples all the time I thought that is what they were there for.
To answer the OP, no a lot of people don't like FSUSA and lot of people do like FSUSA...there is a vendor for every vaper out there I think FSUSA has poignant bold flavors, less subtle than some, who uses flavorart flavoring. To some people that means "lots of flavor" to others it means "nauseating strong"

its all subjective

The one you can guarantee though with FSUSA is drama by page 3.

Can't we all just vape a peace PV and get along? I think we should all get together and vape in happiness and bliss. If people want to bring super minis with pre-filled cartos, I'm cool with that. If someone wants to direct drip premium juice into a Provari and vape that, good for them. If someone wants to vape cow piss off a stove top, I'm fine that too (not recommending anyone do this, just making a point)

BTW, I have never tried the whole cow urine on stovetop vape, but I might prefer that over some pre-filled cartos that I have tasted. Some of them are that bad IMHO.

::group hug:: unless someone smells like cow pee. :)

Cheers,
VMS

Different strokes for different folks. I love coffee-chocolate-caramel type flavors and have been vaping Tiramisu for an extended period of time. My husband quit 2 days ago (after 50+ years of smoking) and considers Wyatt Earp great. He does not like the flavors that got me to quit smoking. I don't do well with 50/50 mixes though I do find Wyatt Earp tasty.

So if it doesn't work for you, so be it! You don't want to test their samplers? Don't! But why choose to bash their product and free giveaway? There will be more flavors from all over the place that we each will not like. Should we all bash those flavors and places? I don't think so.

Well actually, isn't a big part of this forum reviewing products? Freedom to vape freedom of speach. If I find a product I don't like I will speak it loud and clear. I don't care if I hurt someones feelings because they are a fanboy. Get over it. They care about your money and that's it.

But ANYWAY, I was hoping for something like "yeh I don't really like FSUSA either, my choice is X brand for X reasons." OR "those flavors I did not like either but try X flavor from them I loved it"

Just trying to find some good liquid I am new to this and If I can express that I didn't find the taste of "pure cig" appealing maybe that will help somebody recomend something. So far I know "classic" by "the safe cig" tastes great. But want to try more similar flavors. :vapor:

LOL!

Op,

Try several different vendors. Here's a list of sites that offer cheap, small samples:

VaporsEtc - ( my friend loves their tobacco flavors)
MadVapes
LibertyFlights
BlueMist
VaporBomb


And check the Classified page. People constantly sell the juices that they don't like and some sell them cheaply.

I heard purecig was to die for and tried it. It was ok, at best to me. Nothing to write home about, Taste is so subjective that I pay little attention anymore to vape reviews of flavors. Once you find the area of flavor you like try other vendors out and get samples where you can. I have found a couple of vendors I like and their juice is very good. Keep experimenting. you will find the ones you like. good luck.

#1, flavors are never going to be spot on as we are vaping them (not eating them).
#2, complaining about a FREE sample is just wacked out dude.

#3, you are one of those customers that will not be satisfied period. Anybody who complains when they receive something for free has an alternate agenda (as can be easily surmised from the tone of your post). You could probably try every flavor they have and still have something negative to say about every one of 'em.

Go back to your prefilled carto's and move on.

Wow. You can "stand behind" your comments all you want. This is unnecessary bile and nothing more.

I have tried a selection of samples (being at least 5) from 8 juice vendors now and I have to admit that FSUSA ranks pretty close to the bottom in terms of my hit/miss ratio. I tried 8 of their flavors (including Wyatt and Dark Vapure) and only really liked the Thin Mint flavor. Hypnotic Mist is decent but not a re-purchase for me. That being said, I likely could have picked 8 different flavors and probably have had a better experience.

I recently sampled juices from VaporBomb, which appears to have many similar flavors as FSUSA, and I liked them a lot more.

I haven't tried the flavors you mention having liked, nor have I ever smoked a pipe.

But if you want my recommendation anyway, I can tell you that I love Dekang DK-TAB which I think has a deep, rich tobacco flavor.
If you're interested you can get it at Valley Vapor and Madvapes, and probably many other places.

If you are interested in non-tobacco flavors, I am a Tasty Vapor fanboy, because I think their juice is easily the best.
Well, at least the best of those I've tried over the last 19 months.
:)

True. On the other hand, it is fair to judge a juice based on how accurate it is to the flavor it claims to be. That is still somewhat subjective but it is far less subjective than "is it good?". You know what peach cobbler tastes like and I know what peach cobbler tastes like. If you vape a juice sample called "peach cobbler" and it tastes nothing like the real thing or even a somewhat artificial representation of the real thing, I think you can pretty objectively state that.

Of course, that doesn't work for a lot of unique blend flavors that aren't trying to specifically emulate the taste of something else. Also, a "peach cobbler" juice that fails to taste much like peach cobbler can still be pretty darn good, but that would also be 100% subjective.

I'm not sure how this whole taste bud thing works, to be honest.

I mean, I have tried Wyatt Earp from FSUSA and I think it has a very strong jalapeno taste.
Others have said it tastes more like licorice, and I'm like... what?

I like

Alien Visions E-Juice 100% VG My favorite is the Havana Gold 18MG (this is my go to juice)

I have just got in some Backwoods Brew I have only sampled the Cherry Tobacco but it is good. And have heard a lot of good things about there juice.

I also have some http://www.mstsbakery.com/ Order can take a bit long but well worth it. (No Tobacco flavors on this site)

Hope that helps
