I haven't seen much feedback on Hurricane Vapor's Storm juice here on the furum so here are my thoughts. This is my first review so bear with me. I'd like to hear from others who have tried their juices.

I ordered sampler sizes of the Florida Orange Creamsicle, the recently released Sunset Cavendish, and Toasted Amber tobacco. The toasted Amber was shown as available when I placed the order but was not shipped and is currently on backorder. They did include a hand written note addressing this on my delivery invoice, and will ship it later with free postage. No biggie though that was the primary flavor I wanted to try..


Florida Orange Creamsicle: Really hard to describe, though you'd think it would be simple. I ordered this in 70/30 blend, @18% nic anticipating a good TH with the expected creamsicle flavor. The TH is in fact nice. Just right. The literal flavor is spot on but must be appreciated in the right setting. It is VERY subtle. I'm mainly a tobacco guy and was expecting something good but also something that I would probably have to put down after a few minutes from sweetness overload.. NOT the case. Again, it is a very subtle (and spot on) creamsicle flavor enveloped in a rich and velvety, but somewhat dry, delivery. You really have to take the time to roll it around and especially let it into your sinuses, to fully appreciate the excellent flavor. I re-orded a 30ML bottle this morning and am going with 50/50 blend at 18% nic this time as it may accentuate the flavor a bit more, which would be nice. I like it and I didn't think I would.


Sunset Cavendish: This one has me undecided.. It is an excellent vape but seems to be slightly lacking in flavor for me. The taste is fairly dry and mellow with a rich light tobacco undertone. Velvety is the word that comes to mind again. Slightly buttery. Minimal TH. Not particularly sweet, but no harsh or bitter tastes whatsoever. Quite nice overall and it is very satisfying if you are craving a good fix. Plumes of thick vapor from the 50/50 blend! Love that! On the fence and didn't re-order for now. Their flavors are interesting and play well with my device too. I seem to get extra mileage from these juices, which is great!


Also currently on order are Peaches & Irish Cream, (more Florida Orange Creamsicle -who'd a thunk..), and Galleta Dulce. As a primarily tobacco kind of guy and a former 25 year cigarette smoker, these would have been a stretch for me, but after seeing first hand how these juices have a kind of stealthy and subtle way of delivering their own unique experience, leaving me quite satisfied and wanting more, I'm quite intrigued and I went for it. I might pop back here and let you know how those work out. I want to state that I vaped my sample bottles right off the bat so a little steeping time may make for a little more flavor, which I wouldn't mind at all.

Edit: I went ahead and re-ordered a 30ml bottle of the Sunset Cavendish. It has really grown on me and the flavor is really beginning to come through after just a few days.

OK, I received my second shipment from Hurricane.
In the two plus weeks that have passed, Sunset Cavendish has become my ADV. It does gain a little more buttery flavor after a short steep but that is about it. I find it to be a very comfortable all day vape and never get tired of the buttery mild tobacco flavor. I'll be ordering a 3rd bottle soon.

I re-ordered a 30ml bottle of Florida Orange Creamsicle and it's in my daily rotation and now seems like an old friend. This time I went with a 50/50 blend at 18% nic. PLUMES of vapor and it still has a nice full TH. Very satisfying and not a sweetness overload. A great way to break the tobacco-only flavor habit if that applies to you. (It applied to me).

Next: Peaches and Irish Cream. Not a lot to say here. If you are someone who would sit down and eat a whole ripe peach just to eat it, then you will like this one. The flavor is exactly like that. A bit too peachy for me and lacking on the Irish Cream part, though it is definitely creamy. After a week steeping this is a very dark colored juice and even more sweetness comes forward. Not my fav but nicely done and should be a hit with peach fans.

Toasted Amber Tobacco: Wow, this one is regularly sold out and I was really excited to try it. For me, as a tobacco juice, it is just too sweet and aromatic. It has a thick dark syrup-ish aroma that permeated my vape kit that I carry with me during the day. Almost Nutella like in aroma with a color to match. I gave it to friends and they liked it. Not a traditional tobacco experience for me..

Galleta Dulce: I will admit that I have never eaten the Latin sugar cookie that inspires this juice but I have no doubt that they nailed it. It's a very rich vape with an explosion of flavor but you must have a big sweet tooth to handle it for more than five or ten minutes. A true desert vape in every sense.

Sunshine Cured Tobacco: I was given this by a friend who ordered a sample and just didn't like it. He described a heavy perfume/cologne note that he couldn't get past. I let it steep for a week and vaped it all day, as they advertise it is a good one for. The steep improved the perfumey presence but it certainly lacks the lush flavor of Sunset Cavendish and does retain a slight floral note. This is a very mild and somewhat unsatisfying vape for a tobacco, in my opinion.

Cuban Coffee: Spot on. Deep robust coffee flavor with just a hint of sweetness and nothing else to distract from the intended flavor. Exactly as advertised. Great if you are into coffee vapes. (I am, only on occasion) I have a friend who enjoys coffee and he says this is the best he's tried.

Saw the new release announcement and had to try a couple.

Cinnamon Roasted Almonds: This sounded great from their description of the Latin inspired street baked goodies offered by generations of street vendors in Miami. Having frequented south Florida on several business trips and tasting these street delicacies for myself, I had to order a sample bottle. I'm vaping this as I write, while also enjoying a hand crafted Pinot Grigio. Pretty blissfull..
Ok.. The predominant flavor, mailbox fresh, mind you, is cinnamon. Not "candy" cinnamon but the real experience of a fresh cinnamon stick in a summer drink or fancy dessert. No sugary fake taste here like I've experienced in most cinnamon vapes I've tried. Real cinnamon! There is a very nice and extremely smooth tobacco in the background, followed by just a hint of almond (just enough in my opinion) and an ever so elusive follow through of mellow caramel. No floral or chemical tastes hovering in the shadows. This is a true taste experience. Makes me wish I has ordered a larger bottle and allowed it to steep for a week to see what other magic it holds. Hmmm.. That's probably gonna happen.. Love this one!

Great reviews, thanks!

I ordered about 3 weeks ago Papaya Milkshake and Lemon Drop. Both at 24 mgs nic and 70/30 PG/VG.

The Papaya Milkshake was surprisingly delicious. At first I was taken aback, the sweetness was intense. But after a few vapes it really does mellow out and brings forth the more fruity papaya and cream flavors. I ordered 30 mls of this and it's going to be gone soon :( I've put it in Iclears and the taste doesn't suffer at all. I've dripped it in an RDA and it's just as good. Medium throat hit.

The Lemon Drop... I don't know what to make of it just yet. It's definitely sweet. I'm not happy with how this this juice was. I ordered the same PG/VG ratio on this as I did the Papaya Milkshake, but it's much thinner in consistency. Difficult to drip a juice this thin. The flavor of lemon is hidden behind the sweetness. Don't get me wrong, I love the flavors, but it's hard to describe what the cons are here with it... it rounds in on itself. That's the only thing that comes to mind when I describe it. Throat hit is minimal.

Next order I'll be going for their 30 ml sampler packs and getting a good variety.

I'm a big fan of Sunset Cavendish. Velvety is the word that comes to mind again. Slightly buttery. Exactly. There is a sweet spot, very hard to find, that causes Sunset Cavendish to hit a cigar note that is just perfect. It seems to be in the lower voltage range.

I have Galleta Dulce and Peaches&Irish Cream, and I agree - Hurricane nails their flavor profiles. The GD is a dessert vape. Peaches (for me) is also a dessert. Both are good, but are "spot vapes".

Toasted Amber was a "Tribeca experience" - great the first day, went right off it the second day. Sunshine Cured came in a sample - I liked it, but went through it too quickly to let it steep out. I'll risk a 30ml of it at some point.

Cuban Coffee hits me like a freight train. Oh yeah, they got the flavor, but to me it is monster strong coffee. :) I may try a "Frankenmizer Special" and mix it with some Galleta ;)

I was wondering about Cinnamon Roasted Almonds. Thanks for your review - it's now on my list.

Edit: I see they pulled Red Chile Guava..heh - SpinFuel raked them over hot coals for that one in July.

Mango Milkshake: I received this from Hurricane as an unexpected gift with a recent hardware order. Very nice of them! Apparently they noticed that my order was not tracking by the second day after shipment so they immediately shipped another order and emailed me with an apology. I would have never known. (Yes, they actually check up on shipments after they ship them. Can you say Customer Service? Wow!) Anyway, so they threw this one in. Thanks guys!
I'm not a fruity flavor fan but this is noteworthy regardless. Really nice, quite rich, and very authentic Mango and cream flavor. No noticeable tartness. I loaded a Protank Mini and enjoyed it in rotation throughout a full day. Not something I can usually do with fruit vapes. Very full and satisfying. Another great flavor match that should satisfy those who crave tropical fruits. I see it has been sold out recently so Mango lovers must be digging into this one.

I have only tried one flavor and I like it a lot... cinnamon roasted almonds...

I would really like to know what their tobacco juice is made from... can anyone tell me?

is it an absolute? a net? flavorings from who/where?

I won't buy tobacco juices blind... no way I need to try FA TPA FW etc again and again and again you know?

I see you bit and are enjoying the Mango Milkshake enough to write a nice review on it. I have no idea where they source their ingredients. All I know is that they are different and to quote you Lasttango, "Adult". Good on ya. After mentioning this flavor earlier, and how I'm not into fruit vapes, I find myself with an empty bottle of Mango Milkshake and it will be in my next order. :)
