My impressions on a couple juice offerings from a fairly new e-liquid vendor, Highbrow Vapor.
Boy, was I surprised!

Very good review.
I have 4 bottles of Highbrow that I received yesterday and I am impressed with these as well. I am letting them steep a bit before a final verdict, but so far I really like the Orange de Sangre. Very authentic orange taste.
My S.O. has latched on to that bottle, I tried to get it back to let it "steep" , but she is having no part of that. LOL

Thanks...I was really impressed with Highbrow.
I just placed an order for more of the chocolate mint and RY4. I'm going to check out some of the other flavors as well...maybe I'll give the Orange de Sangre a try.

I just got 4 bottles, based on the rave reviews in the RY4 thread. I gotta say, the RY4 does not taste anything like RY4 to me. It tastes flowery. The Orange De Sangre is delicious, I really like it. Have yet to try the watermelon and the creme brulee. The watermelon smells great.
Sandy,
RY4s tend to fall into two groups: "classic" RY4s and "custom" RY4s. RY4s in the classic group all share a similar flavor profile. RY4s in the custom group are distinctive, atypical, and decidedly individual, differing both from classic RY4s and from each other as well. Highbrow's version is definitely a custom RY4. In my Top 10 rankings on the RY4 thread, five are classic and five are custom.
Here's a quote from my review: "It may not be to everyones liking, since it is far from a classic RY4..." You can't say I didn't warn you, LOL.
I don't taste anything "floral" in Highbrow RY4, although I have in some other RY4s. Could it be that the cocoa liqueur flavor tastes floral to you?
Bill - I taste rosewater. Not a nutty flavor at all 
Maybe it needs to steep a bit; it's brand new.

Sandy,
Funny you should mention Rosewater. I just got some Rosewater eliquid from VaporStation during their recent inventory clearance sale. Not that I was hot to get some---heck, I'd never even heard of rosewater in any context before, much less in a vaping juice, until seeing it on the VaporStation site many months ago---but it was so cheap for 15mls ($4 during the inventory sale) that I had to try some. It's, uh, interesting...
I just vaped some VS Rosewater head-to-head with Highbrow RY4, and all I can say is nope, no resemblance for me. I'm not saying you're wrong, because 1) other rosewaters may exist that you're familiar with while I'm not, and 2) the mantra about taste being subjective, which is as close as we come here on ECF to a universal truth.
I hope steeping works a little magic for you. If not, what the heck, it'll be just one more unlovable juice (we've all got lots of those...) to condemn to the juice orphanage.

I just gave a carto of Highbrow RY4 to Tim from Hot Vapes in Chicago to try. Will let you know what he thinks!

Is RY4 supposed to have a nutty flavor? I'm just asking, because like I said in my review, I am not a juice connoisseur by no means.
BUT...for me, the Highbrow RY4 has become my favorite, as a matter of fact I'm vaping it right now with my Don.
thanks TUC for your reviews, Just ordered me some RY4 , i am a big fan of Freedom smokes USA RY4 and liked the rafalicius although they do a number on my CE2's , if they made them in a mix instead of 100% VG , i would order more.
maybe bill can answer this question with his knowledge of RY4's, Because of the above mentioned and not being a fan of Boba's bounty, will I enjoy this RY4 as much as the above mentioned ? thanks guys , also ordered Ikenvape RY4 and BWB casablanca .

I was really impressed with the service... packaging...
The liquid I got was the menthol tobacco...
It was a high quality juice...
It burned perfectly in my atties... plumes of vapor at 80% PG...
The menthol was perfect. One of the best menthol throat hits I ever had...
My only problem was that I wasn't a fan of the tobacco base they used.
It reminded me a lot of Perfumer's Apprentice's DK TAB flavor... which is a bit on the nutty side.
I like PA flavorings a lot... just not a fan of the DK TAB...
It tastes almost identical to Vapesafe's ASTROBACCO... if you remember that tobacco flavor.
I think it will be incredibly popular juice... just a personal preference.
I will definitely try highbrow again...
I really think they are making good liquids...

I was just on Vapesafe's site. I heard good things and was going to place an order. Only problem is when I go into their juice section all I see is one flavor,Watermelon(yuck,not a watermelon fan) Am I missing something or is that really their entire "selection"?
I am in love with most of the juices I have gotten from highbrow. After some steeping the Vanilla Bourbon bean and blackberry limoncello (had them add a hint of chocolate) have turned into some top notch flavors. I haven't had the RY4 but it does seem interesting. Highbrowbacco exotic was amazing straight out of the envelope along with Apricot. I use the Hazelnut cream as an additive to several other tobacco juices I really like to add a creamy richness. Every one of the flavors I have tried of theirs have been unique. They are definitely among my favorite vendors. Totally worth the extra bit of price.
Don't know what happened, try this link E Cig Juice @ *_Highbrow Vapor_* - E Liquid Store, Shop our Store for Ecig Products.
TUC, I think he was looking for that "Astrobacco" that Last Tango mentioned . . . made by a different vendor (Vapesafe).
