I haven't gotten my e-cig yet (still waiting for delivery), but I'm already out looking to find a good "juice" provider. The only thing I'm disappointed with about with Halo is they don't offer a "sample" pack so I can try all of their flavors.

I'd hate to order such a large bottle of juice and have it turn out that I don't like it.

    I got my Freedom 12 mg today, ordered on the 29th, so that's fast enough shipping for me ! Anyway, I'm trying to love the taste, not there yet; lots of nice vapor clouds though ! (No vanilla taste for me yet, though I think I do detect the cedar-ish one)

    I'm gonna give it at least a week, perhaps switch to some other flavor for a day here & there.

    Love the packaging, as others have said. Very nicely done, with superb packing for protection during shipping.

    BTW, my sample flavor was 'Cool'. Kinda excited to try that one too ! :cool:[/QUOTE

    I am with you. After seeing all the raves, I am having a hard time even liking the freedom juice. Too much cedar taste or something. I wish they had samplers at the time, so I wouldn't had to get so much, only to find out I didn't care for it at all. I know I am in a minority here, but wanted to share. I realize how subjective taste is, that's why smaller bottles are better when you try something new.

    Honestly, I (and many others) felt the same way when I first tried it. I set it aside for a few days and tried some other flavors. When I came back to it, it did not taste the same as my first vape - odd but true. The first time I tried it, I thought it was very ashy like a real cig, but the 2nd time I got the woody flavor and then the vanilla started coming in on the exhale.

    Its strange, I know. :confused:

    I loved this stuff from the 1st vape and have not looked back... Ordered 5 more bottles of it today...

    But as you said, the flavor does improve with time... Not sure why but it may have something to do with vaping inferior juice for a long time....

    Someone on another thread said it tasted like you were vapeing one of those old-fashioned cedar jewelry boxes, lol ! That's kinda what I'm getting too ! After vapeing this for several hours, the cedar aroma/taste is even stronger now. I can only hope to experience it differently in a day or two; otherwise, I'll probably sell or trade it, since my husband is not liking it much better than I am.

    I am with you. I keep trying, and I just can't shake that cedar taste. It feels heavy and, to be honest, cedar is not a flavor I care to linger in my mouth. Have tried several times. Have to say yuck. Sorry

    SOMEBODY got my post mixed in with someone else's. How did that happen???

    I've tried this too out of curiosity.

    First, I don't see anything 'clean' or 'pure' about the taste. The taste isn't bad, but isn't for me. I could see if someone likes Johnson Creek, they may like this. But I hate Johnson Creek, and this didn't win me over. It's that background taste.

    Also, this stuff is thick. Very thick. Like runny syrup. And that's why the vapor is nice, because of all the VG. I'm also not a fan of VG.

    Like I said, the taste isn't bad, and I can see some people like it. But without the nice packaging, I can't justify using this over foreign liquid ($ wise).
     
    Try mixing it with a bit of their Cool Liquid. It gives an amazing original Tobaccol/Menthol taste instead of making it feel like you are vaping on a after-dinner mint. :p

    On the ref. to VG

    I have 3 bottles of Halo- Very good stuff!! I asked Johnny Blazio from Halo - before i ordered. I am 99.9% he said PG - But it Makes Soooooo Much Vapor that you would think it has and or mixed with VG - But he did Say PG. Its Very Clean and pure in my opinion!

    Being a menthol smoker I originally bought the Menthol Ice from Halo but got a bottle of Freedom too since so many were impressed with it. I just loaded my BB up with it and am trying it now. It's really nice. Very smooth, decent throat hit, and the flavor isn't an overpowering tobacco taste. Like others have stated, there's a hint of something there that I can't quite put my finger on. It's like vanilla but it's not vanilla. Sandalwood maybe? It's difficult to describe. This stuff is definitely a winner and I think it could be altered with a drop or two of other flavors, black cherry for instance. It's a great stand alone or base liquid. I like!
