Juice Review Thread??

[zotzer]

When placing an order for a big bottle of Flaky Apple, I added some 10ml bottles of other flavors to try. I typically like tobacco flavors, but have been trying to venture out into some different stuff. One of the fun flavors I decided to try was Smores.

At first, it seemed very light on flavor. What I detected was good, but I couldn't taste much. One thing that I've discovered about vaping (3 months now, smoke-free) is that my tastebuds are still in flux. So, I whipped it out again this weekend.

It's absolutely delicious! Not an overly sweet flavor, the graham cracker is probably the lead, and it has a little bit of saltiness to it, which I really like. Vapor production is right on par for a 50/50, and throat hit is evident but mild (this is 24mg juice). It's a mildly tannish, clear juice, and vapes very clean and even in cartos.

I am glad I ordered it. Thanks, FSUSA, for offering so many options to suit just about any taste.

Lavender/Violet/Rose: these are similar in character so I'm doing all three in one. Good brutal th on these, with a nice flavor. Some people might be bothered by a similarity to air freshener, but not me. I use these (along with green tea) for when I need th. I don't always inhale this vapor, just blow big clouds, as the th is too much for chain-vaping (which is what I do for many hours of the day).

Maple Walnut: Not as sugary as one might guess, but very tasty. Walnut flavor comes through strong and excellent. Also strong th.

Tuna: Not horrible. Liked it better then the Roasted Chicken. Canned tuna taste that lingers in your throat for hours. Almost good, but something just feels off in an unpleasant way.

All these liquids are 12mg with extra flavor(except tuna). 90pg/10vg on the flavor range ones, and 50/50 (obviously) on the maple walnut. Vaped at 3.4-4.2 volts in normal cartos (Ikenvape mega 808, and Leo) except Maple Walnut in a slightly LR GoGo carto (most of the LR GoGos aren't very LR).

I LOVE FSUSA Peppermint Mocha, Cream Soda, and Pistachio Wonder (all get 4 -5 stars from me!) and have enjoyed most of the samples I've received.

For the July 4th sale I ordered Candy Cane, since I love vaping peppermint. It's pictured on the website as peppermint candy canes, and the reviews raved that it tasted "just like a candy cane".

I received bottle, opened it anticipating a heavenly peppermint aroma, but instead was smacked in the face with CINNAMON (I hate vaping cinnamon). I tasted a drop on my tongue...cinnamon red hots. Reluctantly I filled a carto and vaped it....gaaaaaah! Run away! Run away! I was vaping cinnamon red hots! And I'm sorry, but steeping will not magically turn cinnamon red hots into peppermint candy canes.

So, the moral of the story is, if you like vaping cinnamon red hots, go buy some Candy Cane.

I ordered some PureCig for the first time, and, well, it sort of tastes more like ashes than tobacco. Not sure if I'll get used to it or not. Am I alone in this my assessment?

I've never tried PureCig, but several FSUSA customers that post in this forum have. Hopefully, some will see your post.

I definately taste the ashes from purecig...but tobacco also. Tobacco on the inhale and ash on the exhale, kinda lingers a bit too. Weird I took to it right away and it helps me when I have a trigger moments. So I'm not questioning it, works for me.

I'm pleased to say that I today received two flavors that are very good right out of the box.

Vanilla Xtreme is a very strong vanilla. I knew it would be when I smelled it after uncapping the bottle. It's dark in color, but the taste is surprisingly "light" considering how flavorful it is.

Very Cherry was a great surprise, because I have tried other cherry flavors that simply had either no taste or a very sickening one. This one, however, smells like cherry as soon as you open the bottle, and has a nice "light" yet flavorful taste as well.

That said, do these taste entirely natural, like a piece of fruit or actual vanilla beans? Not quite, but so far they are by far the best of each that I have tried.

It will interesting to see how they taste and smell after steeping for a couple of weeks.

Thanks for the review! I have some vanilla extreme on the way and I can't wait!

Yes, you'll see it is very good right out of the box. Hope you enjoy it as much as I am!

As promised, a review of the new flavours I got yesterday (I also ordered all my faves, but I've reviewed them before).

I haven't tried them all yet, but I ordered (all in 18mg, 50/50, between 5 and 30 mls)

White chocolate (haven't tried yet - needs more steeping but smells ok)
Dulce - thingie i can never remember (haven't tried yet - smells amazing!)
Maxbro - now called Maxblend I think? (havent' tried yet, looking forward to it)
Vanilla Extreme (haven't tried but smells really good!)
King Kong (haven't tried yet but smells super banana-ey, yum!)
Choc Mint Cigar (haven't tried yet but smell is very enticing)

Doublemint Gum
Never thought I'd try this. I didn't like menthol cigarettes, and didn't think a mint vape was for me. But bloody Maureen banged on and on and on about it. So I ordered 10mls to shut her up.

This is an AMAZING vape. I really thought it would be like vaping moldy toothpaste (because to me, that's what menthol cigarettes tasted like). I was so wrong. It actually tastes like Doublemint gum! It was so fresh, and so minty. Sweet, but not too sweet. And I realised after I'd put it down, and been in the kitchen about 20 minutes making dinner, that my mouth still felt fresh, I could still taste it. I think this could be a good one for those "I can't taste anything" times. Great vapour production, too.

It also encouraged me to drink more water. It's not something I'd vape with wine, or beer (but that's just me) or anything that might not be nice with minty fresh breath) but on it's own, or with a bottle of ice cold water? Good stuff. Would be a great summer vape (I vaguely remember summer)

One warning - once you've used it in an atty, don't use it for any non mint flavours. It really really lingers. Everything will taste like doublemint gum. I think I'll use it in cartos only. I also think I'll be ordering a bigger bottle.

Chocolate Covered Strawberry

I had tried this previously in a sample, but don't think I've reviewed yet. I love chocolate, but am not normally a fan of chocolate vapes. It's one of those flavours that seems to be hard to replicate in a vape. (To me) it always tastes a bit chemically, hint of chocolate maybe, but just not my thing.

Chocolate strawberry is completely different. I don't know whether it is mixing it with strawberry, or what, but this tastes exactly like what it says. It honestly tastes (to me) exactly like a fresh plump juicy strawberry dipped in quality chocolate. This one will be a favourite for a while, I think. I vaped it last night with a glass (ok, couple of glasses, for the pain, you understand) of Cab Sav. I was in heaven. Very smooth, mellow vape, full of flavour. Great vapour production.

Rating 5/5


Cocoa Butter

I ordered this on the recommendation of TT. I only got 5mls. I am an idiot.

I have struggled with this review. What IS that flavour? Sometimes I think it might be honey? Or is it caramel? Or toffee? Or butter? But no, it's not. I don't know WHAT it is. It does remind me a bit of some fancy chocolates I used to buy (you know the ones, invidually wrapped, cost about a million dollars for 100grams?) that had a really yummy syrupy thing surrounding a hazelnut. But I just can't name the flavour. It's definitely not chocolate - the name may imply chocolate, but this is cocoa butter, not cocoa.

It has great vapour production. And it is JUST SO SMOOTH. This will become a regular, for absolutely sure. Maybe one day I'll even work out what it tastes like.

Mint chocolate cigar. OMG!!!!!!! Minty and chocolatey and delicious. I know it's tobacco, but I can't taste that.

 

[maureengill]

Thanks Elphaba...I was on the fence about that one....adding it to my cart now....

I love Thin Mint, so I'll probably like this too. Just added to my cart.

 

[Misha707]

I ordered a big bottle on the sale, really sounds like something I'll like, so I took the plunge.

 

[Elphaba13]

Sounded like something I might NOT like, and I love it. Hope you all like it too, ladies! Next I'm going to have to try thin mint. My tastes are definitely changing. I like a much bigger variety of juices than I used to. Probably helps that I have FINALLY knocked off analogues completely (my husband smokes and I've been having the occasional one of his every few days, but I seem to have hit that sweet spot where I'm not even vaguely interested.)

 

[Elphaba13]

Max/Bro (think name has changed to max/blend now)
10mls. 18mg. 50/50
Vaped in Jessy S

Finally tried this just now. I am super impressed. This has a REAL tobacco flavour (not to be confused with lit cig flavour). It's not sweet. Just tobacco. Good TH, great vapour. Fantastic flavour. I really like this. I'll be getting a bigger bottle.
5/5

 

[Elphaba13]

On reflection, I think I would recommend this to anyone starting out vaping. It's probably the best analogue replacement I've tried. This has replaced Wyatt Earp and the RYs as my favourite tobacco vape.

Think that one is next on my wish list, thanks Elpha.

I posted these short reviews of samplers in another thread here but wanted to copy to the sticky to help me and others get a short idea of my impressions:

Specialty Tobacco Sampler Pack

Switchblade: Very pleasing robust tobacco flavor. A bit musty taste but it doesn't stick with you and is quite enjoyable. I like it.

Teardrop: Lighter tobacco flavor with maybe a citrus undertone. Good flavor.

Voodoo: Much sweeter tobacco flavor, not really sure what the sweet flavor is but I like it.

Upwoods: Sweet but not overpowering tobacco flavor. Maybe a little hint of something similar to hopscotch. Good flavor.

Outlaw: Tobacco with some spice. Reminds me a bit of Wyatt Earp, maybe a little tamer on the spice taste. I like it.




Breakfast of Champions Sampler Pack

French Toast: Lighter flavor, Close to the actual flavor. Tastes good.

Fruity Loops: Very close to the cereal. A tiny bit more fruit flavor. I like it.

Blueberry Pancake: Lighter flavor, Pretty close to the actual flavor. Very good.

Cinnamon Bun: Close to actual flavor taste with a little bite to it. Good taste.

Crunchy Berries: Perfect flavor, spot on to the actual cereal. I've loved this before and I still do. Glad to have another bottle, last one was about to run out.




Fun with Flavor Sample Pack

Bouquet: Robust flavor. Tastes about what I'd smell in a bouquet. Flower power.

Pineapple Express: Strong pineapple flavor. Quite pleasing taste, maybe a soda fizz to it. I like it.
