Greetings; I tried the Longhorn by Halo, yuck! More like a perfume than a tobacco taste.

==> snip

Regards
Glenn

I just saw a thread on the New Users forum in which Halo was discussed, interestingly (at least to me) someone made the following comment:

The quality of the liquid is great, although have to let the stuff sit around for a while to achieve the proper flavor. It will taste perfumy right out of the box. Some flavors like menthol taste good right away. I still can't say I've tried anywhere near all of their flavors.

Good thing that Battlelance never took me up on my offer to send my tiny bottle of Longhorn on a trip to the Maritimes, i'll have to give it another try. BTW I do agree that it tastes like a quality e-liquid -- hard to explain what I mean, I don't think i'm just being brainwashed by the high price, it just seems like it is made of good ingredients.

Regards
Glenn

Greetings; Just fired up Paradise Vapes Key Lime Pie, my first non-tobacco-flavoured eliquid, hmmmm. I think I like it.

If you're a fan of Key Lime, it's worth a try (I think) :blink:.

Now if I can only work up the nerve to try my first successfully rebuilt PT coil -- I've done 2 or 3 that ended up in the .5 Ohms range -- I wonder what it'll taste like then. I used 3 mm Ekowool, and it comes out at 1.1 Ohms, meaning i'll have to use it on a mech mod.

Regards
Glenn

Edit: Still not 100% sure about Key Lime Pie, except I find that when I pour in a bit of it with a tankful of Musoka, it gives the tobacco flavor a nice tangy sort of taste. Really yummy. Also in my CV order this time around is Paradise Vapes Peaches 'n' Cream -- I have no idea why I ordered this flavor. Haven't tried it yet; I hope it tastes better than it sounds.

Just saw this, dunno why the forums didn't notify me of a post in the thread.

Anyway, I do really appreciate your offer, but I'm sitting on 60mls of the stuff right now so it would probably be a great PIF or giveaway in the Canadian PIF thread for someone who has never tried it.

The one thing I will say, is yes, most juice does benefit from steeping but I find with Halo, by the time we get Halo up here it has had plenty of time to steep. So if it doesn't taste good to you now, it probably never will, unless you're tastes change over time. When I first started vaping I'd never touch a tobacco flavour because it was just vile - now, I'll vape anything with tobacco in the name. Doesn't mean I'll like it (Halo Prime 15 for example, that stuff is just NASTY), but I can give it a try without being totally put off.

Whats everyones recommendation on juice with loads of flavour.
Ive tried the real dumah and ry4...ewwwwwwww....they taste like an ashtray totally not my thing. Its like whenu had buckleys cough syrup for the first time. U just can't get the taste out of your mouth. And evwrytime u think about it u can taste it, lol.
Im really liking the watermelon but the flavour is too faint. Same with grape. Id like something that has 'in yo face' type flavour without compromising TH and vapour.
If something like that exists, what do you recommend?

Thanks dude, any others?

I can also vouch for Strawberry Explosion..

I did not like it at first (perfume flavor) but after letting it sit for 2 weeks it became an awesome flavor. Not my favorite, but a good vape.

I also tried Electric Lemonade (really good, very faint flavor) and Grape Rocket (did not like this one at all)

I will be ordering Smurfette's Goo , looks interesting. Has anyone tried this one?
 
I've tried a lot of paradise vapes and I will give you some reviews on the ones I have tried. I am using a EGO T.

Muskoka blend tobacco 12mg: is my go to juice atm and I love it! Great flavour with nice tobacco taste.

Smurfettes goo 12mg: Really nice smell on the vapor with a pretty decent berry taste. Pretty popular with my friends

Bluewater 12mg: A lot of my friends like it I thought it was blah. Not enough flavour for me.

The real dumah 12mg: Buttered flavoured tobacco? What? Not my cup of tea

Cherry cigar 12mg: Eh it's alright the guy buying a new vape said it's one of his favs. I mean it's alright a faint cherry taste with some tabacco.

Key lime pie 0 nic: Faint key lime taste my wife likes it. I don't.

Ry4 12mg: caramel and tobacco it seems not a bad vape. I throw it in once in awhile. Definitely vapable.

A lot of people say to steep these Paradise liquids and I agree I have started to steep all of them and they are getting a bit better in taste but I still haven't found something with a strong strong in your face flavour. They all seem pretty weak to me. However the Muskoka blend liek I said is my go to vap I love the stuff.

I am picking up some 555 tomorrow we'll see how that goes.

Just opened up my Smurfette's Goo.. let it steep for just over a week but couldn't wait any longer. Upon receiving it, I opened it up to get a smell of it and it was amazing!

Been looking forward to it and I have not been disapointed!. It's great!. Still a little early but it might be my new favorite juice. If you like fruity flavors, get this!

I am tasting a strong raspberry flavor, some blueberry as well. I am impressed.

Just tried Paradise Vapes Cinnamon Danish, yum, I think this one is a keeper! My only reservation from calling this flavor 'awesome' is that it is true to its name, meaning it smells and -- to some extent -- tastes like the cinnamon in a cinnamon Danish, rather than just plain old cinnamon, which is what I would have preferred (like cinnamon toast cinnamon, or better still, Cinnamon Girl cinnamon).

I've read that at least one e-liquid vendor in the US has pulled cinnamon flavor off the shelves, due to new-ish health concerns about some possible harmful health effects of one of the things that cinnamon contains. I believe this is true of cinnamon in general, not just cinnamon e-liquid. At the same time, cinnamon is now thought to have a possible effectiveness in terms of preventing Alzheimer's (saw this on Google), so I guess we have to make up out own mind.

Cinnamon Danish e-liquid is dark and acidic, so it looks like a coil-clogger and a plastic tank cracker -- you've been warned!

Has anyone tried any vanilla e-liquids? That's my nexte-liquid taste adventure.

-- Glenn

PS: On my mech mod (unkicked), Cinnamon Danish is giving my gurgling and leaking like crazy. On my regulated mod, however, it's fine when I crank it up to 7 Watts. A lot more vapour, too.

.....Key lime pie 0 nic: Faint key lime taste my wife likes it. I don't.

Ry4 12mg: caramel and tobacco it seems not a bad vape. I throw it in once in awhile. Definitely vapable.

They all seem pretty weak to me. However the Muskoka blend liek I said is my go to vap I love the stuff.

I was so-so on the Key Lime Pie, until I mixed it in with some tobacco flavoured e-liquid, at which point I came to love it. It adds a lovely tartness and sweetness.

+1 for Muskoka Blend, it's my ADV for now.

How was the 555?

I'm thinking the same thing about steeping -- the Paradise Vapes stuff I've tried, apart from the Muskoka, tends to be very clear, which I believe is a sign of something that could benefit from steeping.

There's a lot of good tutorials on steeping, this is one I particularly liked in terms of info content: Steeping Tips and Tricks - YouTube
