Okay, so on Saturday my order came in from Honeyville. A lot of us are familiar with this new company cause they did a special that ALL sample size, 5ml, where .39 cents. So a bunch of us on the forum got in on that special, ordered a bunch of samples and may are still waiting for there orders to come in, some already have there order in but just haven't done a review here as of yet that I've seen.

So lets see how this company compares to the others, here we go...( vaping flavors as I make the report)

Blueberry muffin- Smells good right from the bottle! Good sign! vaping....yum...tastes like blueberry. Not over powering in blueberry tastes so if you like yummy mild flavors, this one is very good. Good th. 80/20@24mg Thumbs up!!!!

cowboy smooth- vaping.....oh..pleasent surprise when exhaling..minty..tobacco flavor upon inhale, mild, a good all day type mild tobacco and then when exhaling a slight mint or menthol taste to wrap it up. Oh I like that. good TH but mild on the throat. Not harsh. smooth! Oh i really like this one. If your a menthol or minty lover, this does not have a strong menthol/mint kick...mild and smooth. 80/20 @ 24mg. Thumbs up!

Carmel macchiato- I have visions of starbucks....vaping....ok the real thing is better but not bad...not bad at all! Has carmel flavor upon inhaling and mild coffee flavor upon exhaling. It works. Mild TH..kinda feel like I gotta suck harder than usual to get a TH out of it. Draw back. But not a wasted flavor, I'd finish vaping the sample but probably wouldn't order it again unless it's a .39 cent special of course, then I would!:p 80/20@24mg. Not a thumbs down but not a thumbs up either...soso!

Mimosa- vaping....oh man...totally yummy! tastes like a mimosa..I'm impressed. Mild, not perfumey, not acidy, good vape on the exhale. smooth TH. Lingering after taste of OJ and smells really good on the exhale. This is a good all day one too. 80/20@24mg. Thumbs up!

Plan 'ol vanilla- vaping....ewww....vaping again.....ewww....naw...don't like...tastes like the bottom of an ashtray. vaping again...slight vanilla taste but mostly tastes like an ashtray...ewww...don't even think that would be good to mix with something else unless one likes the taste of an ashtray. Going in the dislike bin for trading! good exhale vape, hardly any TH. 80/20@24mg. Thumbs down! That carto is getting boiled!

Apple Pie- vaping.....smells really good, like homemade apple pie....good start....vaping...oh yummy...tastes just like apple pie. I can taste a mild hint of cinnamon upon exhaling and it lingers for an after taste. Good TH...smooth....good evening vape for after dinner. Tastes the apples but not complete apple taste thats over powering. Oh I could vape this every nite after dinner and skip the real dessert...might lose a few pounds on this flavor. Not overly sweet, not overly tart and yet a good hint of cinnamon! Good vape on the exhale. Yup, that's a keeper! 80/20@24mg. Thumbs up!

I only ordered the 6 flavors from the .39 cent special. Overall, I'd say this is a good company. I made my order on 3/21 and it arrived in mailbox on 3/26. I heard they had over 18,000 orders to fill from the .39 cent special. So I'd say there delivery time was awesome! No order screw ups. The one common thing with all of the flavors except vanilla..aka..ashtray...they are all SMOOTH, good TH, good vape and flavors rights on target!

I just looked on their website and their sample bottles, 5ml are $1.69 right now, regular price says $2.99, these are the one's a lot of us got for .39 cents but $1.69, even $2.99 for a 5ml bottle is still a great price. As soon as I am done with this post I am going to do another order of the remaining flavors I didn't order. They have a total of 15 flavors, I ordered 6. Now I wish I had ordered one of everything when it was .39 cents!

Thumbs up on this company....recommend to everyone but not the vanilla..a.k.a. ashtray!

Happy vaping!

Was it something I said?
I'm just dipping into mine and will review them all myself.

In the meantime, can you share what you are vaping them in? I think model/voltage can make a difference and is a good thing to note in a review. Thanks!

Oh, and if you didn't care for the caramel machiato, maybe skip the tiramisu on your reorder, it is real similar. I love them both though so I can't decide which I like more!

I'm gonna try the tiramisu. The Macchiato wasn't too bad so I'll be interested in the tiramisu to see the difference between the two. Besides giving macchiato time to steep just might bump it up a knotch! Yum! I vape with a KR808d-1...rather new at this and new to giving reviews. Thanx for the pointers!

I would like to add that after two hours vaping the apple pie...it gets a bite too sweet to vape! lol...time to switch flavors!
Looking forward to reading more reviews from this company!

I recieved my .39 cent flavors today as well. I started with the blueberry and it was yummy. Next I tried the Apple Pie and that was as far as I got! Apple Pie is AWESOME!! I only got 6 flavors at .39 cents also and now I too am wishing I would have bought them all...

I am definately ordering me some more Apple Pie!!

Thanks for the review! I just ordered 8 flavors (apple pie, blueberry muffin, tiramisu, mimosa, caramel macchiato, vanilla blend, mint chocolate chip cheesecake, and waffles). Wish I had read the review on the vanilla first. Oh, well. For $1.69, it might not be that bad, and maybe since my taste buds haven't completely returned yet, I won't notice the ashtray taste. Oh, lord, I hope it doesn't taste that bad. LOL I just wish I had ordered before the $0.39 sale ended. Still, the prices right now are great, and I am trying to try as many flavors from as many suppliers as possible right now. I think I'm going to need an intervention for this juice buying spree I'm on!

I too got my order in today, and the only one I've been able to get to so far is the Carmel Macchiato. I see what you were saying about the TH, but honestly the flavor for me is not coming through as anything coffee, so much as... burnt popcorn. I get a hint of coffee on the exhale, but other than that, its... buttery - for lack of a better adjective. The juice itself and the vapor smell amazing though! I'm thinking it might be just my tastebuds tonight or my atty, so I'm gonna try with a clean atty tomorrow. I can't wait to sample the others I got though, I got the same ones as you and then like 2 more! After reading your reviews I'm definitely looking forward to the others :)

Yeah as a newbie, I too am on a juice buying spree!! I've got like 25 bottles of juice and out of them all there are only three that are in the trading bin, so that's not too bad. My problem now is I don't have enough empty carto's to fill with all the flavors!!! LOL...however I just ordered 4 5-packs of empty carto's from V4L cause they are having a 25% discount sale on anything you buy. So that will give me some more to fill. lol.....

You will have to let us know your take on the vanilla. I wouldn't take my word for the "ashtray" taste. I am a newbie and my taste buds might very well be off. I didn't let it steep like everyone talks about doing either and maybe that will make a difference in taste too. Then there is the whole difference in taste from one person to the next, subjective, so who knows, maybe for you it won't be an ashtray!!! LOL

last week I went through a "soapy" taste from Gourmet Vapors flavors so I'm sure it's just my taste buds being wacky at the moment! Let us know what you think of your flavors when they come in!

I don't get buttery, but definitely get the burnt. To me though it's a good burnt, like fresh roasted coffee or slightly burnt caramel. Really does show how subjective taste is, roasted coffee and burnt popcorn are pretty similar in the spectrum of all possible tastes, but one is appealing and the other notsomuch.

I found both blueberry muffin and apple pie delicious, but as mentioned above they get a little cloying after about .5 ml straight.

The mint chip cheescake is very good too! Blueberry is delish. The ocean is a good mild menthol tobacco and is yummy for a tobacco flavor. But hands down my favorite is the mimosa, spot on flavor, makes me want a drink!. I ordered 8 flavors and didn't hate any of them and really liked the ones I mentioned. Even swamped with orders I got my order promptly and correctly. Give them a try for yourself! :)

Great info!!! I placed my order on 3/21 also and am patiently (not really) stalking my mail-lady. I was able to get all the flavors so once I try them I will do my best to post my faves and not so faves. I am still new to this too but am finding SO MUCH info and support in this forum, I want to try to give back when I can...

Will keep you posted!

Jules :)


And I am SOOOOO looking forward to the Apple Pie and Blueberry! Can't Wait!!!

I'm still slowly making my way through the samples - I've gotten to the Vanilla Blend, Apple Pie and WAFFLES. The Vanilla Blend isn't too bad, but I can see what the OP was saying about an underlying ... nasty - but at the same time, I only got a tiny hint of that, and I kinda like it :x For me, I almost never vape vanilla juices by themselves, but usually end up adding them to something else to get the desired sweet :) The Apple Pie is phenomenal ! I got a little tart apple, hint of crust, and a nice cinnamon bit at the end. As for the Waffle...OMG. I have vaped almost the entire bottle. It's buttery, its battery, and there's a nice syrup flavor. I had to make myself put it down and save some for later because I knew I would be disappointed if I vaped it all in one day!!!!

I took a chance and ordered from Honeyville also, and from the sound of all this feedback, I'm glad I did! I didn't get in on the .39 special. Even at 1.69 it seemed worth it to try them. My order has not arrived yet, but I'll be happy to chime in a week or so with some input.

That does seem like a very long time. I ordered on Sunday (the 27th) and my package came in today! All neat as a pin, no leaks of any kind, bottles are full.

I ordered Caramel Macchiato, Blueberry Muffin, Waffles, Mint Chocolate Chip Cheesecake, Tiramisu, and Mimosa.

From a purely scent point of view, the only one that has some real power to the nose flavor is the Waffles. The other perhaps need to steep.

I could not resist tho. I had atty laundry day today, so I popped on a fresh atty and tried out the Mimosa. I agree with the previous posters. It is, in a word, fantastic! Light and delicate but with an authentic champagne/orange juice flavor.

I just received my order from them. I bought 1 of each flavor. Here is what I have tried so far:
Vaping them on my Buzz at 4.5v with a cheapy cartomizer from China (not Boge). All are 18mg.

Cowboy Smooth - nice flavor. Minty exhale. Nice vapor production. 80/20 mix. Very enjoyable.

Cuban Cigar - if you like cigars, try this one. Very strong but not overly strong flavor. 80/20 mix. Nice vapor production.

Caramel Macchiato - spot on flavor. The caramel blossoms in this one. Just a hint of coffee which was what I was hoping for. Coffee usually overpowers everything but not is this juice. Nice vapor production. 80/20 mix

They will definitely have a repeat customer. I will update as I go through the rest of them. I already vaped my cowboy smooth down to the last drop. I'm not a minty person but this one blew me away.
