Hey Boys and Girls,
I just got my first purchase, Man what a quick turn around, order on Friday night and got it on Monday morning ( AZ-NC )Amazing. I ordered mostly small bottles so I can try different things before making a big bottle order.

I'll do a quick review and an update later on.

Let me start by telling you I have tested all on my silver bullet 6V and box mod 5V, different attys, from 3.5 to 4.5 ohm's.

1. Strawberry Kiwi Pre mixed specialty -18mg , 5ml, 50/50 PG/VG, WOW, what a nice smooth vape out of the bottle. Can taste both on the Inhale and Exhale, not too sweet just smooth and delicious .Vapor production is nice too, rich and thick. TH is not too strong. kinda mild to none. 9/10

2. Appletini Pre Mixed Specialty - 18mg , 5ml, 50/50 PG/VG. Very rich apple with a light perfumey taste. Vapor is great here too but the TH is almost gone. I quit smoking about 2 years ago and really not looking for the throat hit as much as the flavor but def needs some kick. I usually vape 16-18mg but i guess on my next order i'll bump it up to 24mg to get some TH. 6/10

3. Peppermint Mocha pre mixed - A little disappointment here. Had to drop about 10 drop to the atty to finally get some flavor only to find Mocha. Nothing Peppermint what so ever. Switched to carto and got the same results . Mocha is defiantly
nice and strong but thats not all what i was looking for. Vapor is great here as well, Throat hit was a bit stronger for some reason on the same MG (18 ). I will give it some time sit and try it again but for right now i'll rate it 5/10 .

4. Xtreme Tiramisu - pre mixed - hmmm, not sure yet how I like it, will need more messing around before I can set in stone. So far I can taste chocolate and coffee, more on the coffee side but too rich, almost feel like burnt almonds/chocolate .
I'm still vaping it and its not too bad but i'm not sure I can put it in my tanks, prob keep it as an occasional vape for 3.7v 510 atty. vapor is great and thick, TH is just right . 7/10

5. DoubleMint Gum - :2cool:, very nice bubblegum-bazooka flavor, a bit light and no Mint taste. I love it anyways cause its a smooth not too sweet flavor very pleasant but sure was nice to feel the Mint kick in it. Also something I will Vape here and there, not all day. Vapor is awesome, TH is there on the mild side. 8/10

6. Hypnotic Mist Pre mixed - Nice, reminds me a mix of coconut - strawberry cherry, not sure what's in it and not sure I care because its great, lol . very tasty inhale and exhale, still wondering what will it taste with the extra flavoring .
Vapor is nice and strong and Throat hit is a bit mild, prob be better with 24mg . I'll post again after I'll do a 3.7 run and see if flavor changed, good or bad. 9/10

7. Mint Chocolate Cigar - been giving it more attention and now running all of it in my tank and loving it. Throat hit combined with that mint flavor is just awesome. I can taste both flavors and its going to be big bottle order for sure. wow its so good. 10/10

Thats it for now. All in all, pretty happy, I was not expecting to love them all but I will be back for some bigger orders and other flavors for sure. I think I know where to Aim now.
Did not get any freebies to try even though I wanted to order the Peach-White and was not able to find it, I mentioned that on the remark section and was hoping for a sample, even something like 3ml because the peach is one of my all time fav , no big deal.

hey all,

First I must say that i'm somewhat disappointed. My sample 3ml bottles came short almost in every bottle. I had between 1.8 to 2ml vs 3ml in some and barely 2.5 in the other and only true 3ml in two bottles. It makes it a little harder to test new juices/flavors when its a small 3ml bottle that comes as 1.8-2ml . I pretty sure that the 30ml bottle was a 1-2 short ( i didnt check it like i did with the 3ml but it looked short ). I been buying juices going on 2 years now and know the difference.
What makes me even more disappointed is the fact I sent a PM and emailed through the site 4 days ago and no one responded.

Anyways here is the juice reviews, finally had enough time to go through all of them.


Mint Chocolate Cigar - As I said before, very nice at high or low V but I found 4.2V to be just perfect, I added more mint flavor and glad I did. Vapor is amazing, thick and full . Just Excellent 10/10


Strawberry Kiwi Hit home run . Not too sweet on either flavor, blend just right. I did let it sit prob 3 days and more can just add but as is straight from the package is wonderful . very smooth and pleasent vape. Great vapor ( 2.5 tank carto at 4.8V - can't beat that with a stick . 9/10

Banana Strawberry pre-mixed - 24MG Not bad at all, Another Strawberry flavor mix that blend just right. The berry overtaking the banana a bit but still a good mix and smooth. Vaped it 3.7 and it was a tad weak, got it all the way to 5.2V and thats where I stayed - awesomeness .I think I went through the small sample bottle in a few hours. Vapor is great and rich . Can't ask for more . 9/10

Mango Chill pre-mixed - hmmm, 18MG in 10 l bottle . Was not my favorite. A little Perfume taste that overtake the flavor at 5.0V but a little better at 3.7-4V. I vaped about 2-3 ml and then mixed it with some Banana I had from a different vendor and it worked great but as is the Flavor was mild to low with great vapor. 6/10

Mango-Tango pre mixed - Much better Mango here, Got good flavor and great vapor but may need a little extra flavor . TH was good too (24MG), very smooth vape every time I hit it. wonderful on 4.0-4.8V and starting to lose it on 5.2-5.8V. Keep it on the low voltage and it will vape great. Vapor rocks. 8/10

Razbull pre mixed - lol, its a hide and seek game, sometime I go wow, taste like red-bull and sometime its sweet cherry . The good thing is no matter which one or both you taste its awesome smooth mellow vape, very pleasant .
Another one must have.
Big clouds of vapor, just right TH. Taste good high and low Voltage. Very impressed with it. 9/10

Menthol artic Not liking it at all, Its not even a bit Minty, more like a bad cigarette after taste, I'm not trying to sound mean but I tried it again and again, different times of the day, different Mods, different Volt, bad taste ( to me ) every time. I must say its not Awful, its got flavor to it and great vapor just not my cup a tea. Maybe hard core tobacco vaper will find it great. 4/10

Voodoo pre-mixed Have no idea what's in it but keep it coming. Just like the Razbull, its somewhat sweet( not too sweet) and smooth, keeps you guessing and wanting more. I really like it. Throat Hit was a bit weak but its probably due to the sweetens / fruity flavors and nice vapor. Very rich flavors that you taste inhale and exhale . very nice. 9/10


Peach White pre mixed I'm still Vaping it but so far its not bad. Can defiantly taste the peach and the vapor is really good. A little bit sweet and TH is weak ( 24MG), but its a nice fruity flavor. At 3.7V I needed more kick and 5.5-6 was way too much, anywhere 4.2-4.8 is perfect. Not done with it but pretty good .

Thats it boys and girls, Hope the reviews help some ppl, Vape on......

Hey all, I thought I'd toss my reviews of FSUSA in here. Unfortunately they are all in video form, I hope that's OK. If not, feel free to delete my comment :D. I can't wait to try more of your juices, they have been exceptional overall, and addictive to say the least! Can't wait for the big sale!

Ok, you want a Review?

Early on I dumped what would be less than 50% of what I was spending in actual cigarettes into finding the best flavors and hardware so when I found Freedomsmokeusa I wasted no time checking out what I thought I might like and even explored forbidden territory and tried weird stuff I wasn't so sure. Nothing ventured nothing gained.

I should add that I tend to like flavors that kick or are so deep that I fall in and TH so take that into consideration when I rate these FSUSA flavors:

All Day vapes: Originally 24mg samples to 30ml, currently 36mg 50/50 30-120ml units

Cappuccino I love this stuff and in both cases I love this stuff. I love Starbucks too so I hope that says something.
I don't drink coffee because its a fad.. it's one of my favorite things and I would sooner starve than not have decent coffee.
Cappuccino Smooth This used to mean smoking camels too.. but I have to admit that next to this flavor actual camels would be a crime against humanity. Just sweet enough.. it couldn't hurt to have more coffee flavor in there but all the same it's perfect just the way it is. I love it! It's my primary all day vape 99% of the time and I am not even close to being sick of it. One last note on this flavor.. (and all flavors) If you buy a large 60-120 or even 30ml size make sure you shake it up before refilling your carto or whatever. It seems to be important to get that same flavor when it arrived.
Tiramisu This was the flavor that I first came to FSUSA to try.. loved it, still do. I got extra flavor 2x on this when I tried it and it was great.
Xtreme Tiramisu Duh.. more is better however I will cover one aspect that may not be so favorable at the end and this issue seems to be with all chocolate flavored ejuices from FSUSA. ***This is not a flavor related issue which is why I will not go into this here.. Extreeme Tira seemed to be very heavy on the extra chocolate.. which is super authentic but I think I liked the regular Tiramisu because it was perfectly ballanced in all respects.
Pandoro Pandoro is less sweet than you would suspect but it has a buttery aspect that comes in unexpectedly and ends up being so perfect making this a complete and contrasting flavor. It's a very clean burn in your atty/carto and it never seems to get tired. A smooth but powerful vape, excellent TH.
Torrone Ahhh... a subtle sweet rare cookie in the background with a sweet slap your face sting that never fails to wake up the face and taste buds. Excellent TH, and it vapes super clean in your equipment. can't get tired of it.
Almond Amaretto Oi! Similar to Torrone in clean powerful but a tiny bit more unified in flavor and sweetness.. good TH but with it's own amaretto background that holds it's position in the long run. This and Torrone are poweful and complex in a very simple but powerful way. I would vape this all day but... it seems to be best when you give it a rest for a while and come back to it (and torrone)
Caramel/Cream This is a good flavor that seems to do better as a mixer for anything. I don't know why but my quest for caramel type flavors is still a major quest. Of all of them this (with extra flavor) was good.. good enough to be in my all day vape category but at the bottom of the list. It's a good mixer but by itself seemed too weak. This isn't a bad thing as a lot of ejuices will mix and make more than the some of it's parts if you keep it simple.

Noteworthy Favorites: 24mg from samples to 15ml 50/50 at 24mg

These are strong, pure flavors that while I couldn't vape them all day every day they shine in the kind of vivid, consistent and pure quality of presence that makes you think it's the real thing. None of these taste fake or synthetic. If you don't try these at some point you will have missed out on some of what life has to offer. These were sensational to try and you always want to try it again later. So good!

Purecig Someone on this thread suggested to get this with flavor splash to make a good menthol. I say that would probably be the best menthol taste ever and anyone who loves menthol should give that a try. I found this to have that taste which is so hard to explain or define. It's like no taste at all and yet has this quality about it that reminds me of tobacco flavors without the dead rat taste. :) You have to give this a try.. it's an excellent and weird sensation.
Saffron tasted exactly like saffron but alone seemed kind of week but with a salty sort of taste (in exactly the same way the sweet flavors are sweet, this was salty... very cool really)
Tomato Exactly like tomato.. so real it was weird and very good. Where this really became of my my noteworthy flavors was when I mixed Tomato and Saffron. Bam! What a great combination and I suspect that other organic flavors would do well with it to make amazing sensations. Is it too weird? No.. surprisingly you would probably like it, it's like having a tasty lunch without eating.. so not my all day vape but a nice contrast to the sweet I seem to constantly fill my CE2 with.
Fireball Wow!, Bam! Boof! Kapow! hehe.. It's so frickin good and not overly hot. I got napalm once and it's just so powerful and tasty. If you were every sick of weak flavors try this.. if nothing else it wakes up that pallet and applies the cortical electrodes. Enough to wake the dead and make them grateful for being returned to the land of the living.
Pineapple This was good.. but I think next time I'll get extra flavor. It's authentic and pure.
Honey Meow meow honey! Strong, pure, authentic. It's too good not to have just a little around. Almost too strong to mix well with other flavors but beautiful and enjoyable on it's own.

***Before I rate Chocolate I wonder if anyone else has noticed this issue.. while every Chocolate flavor I have tried is often so authentic it's exactly like the real whatever it is supposed to be but... I have found that Chocolate fouls up my atomizer coils quite a bit faster than any other flavor additive and it is in direct proportion to the quantity of chocolate flavor.
Something to note when you try these.. maybe it's just me but I try to avoid chocolate flavors for this reason... I rebuild my own CE2/CE3 coils so I am kind of a fairy princess when it comes to a clean coil.. I can slap in a new custom coil when I like.. and these Chocolate flavors tend to annoy me when I can't get through an entire 1ml without having to replace the coil. This is my only issue.. otherwise the authentic flavor is outstanding I just wish I could vape it without loosing coil longevity.
Some flavors are better than others and are not too bad.. Tiramisu verses the Extreeme version, I think Tootsie roll went down pretty good.. just something to maybe note and share your own comments. I don't want to doom these flavors because 99% are excellent reproductions and I want others to weigh in on this coil gumming effect. I am a very direct engineering person and probably don't know what tack is applied to an engineering issue.

Chocolate Candy Sampler Pack:24mg Samples

Babe Ruth Perfect, exactly like baby ruth
Budderfinger Perfect flavor replication.
Almond Pleasure Very chocolate flavored.. not sure I tasted almonds in there.
Tootsie Roll Bam, I swear they put a real tootsie roll in there!
SnickerZ It tasted exactly like Snickers.. you could really taste the peanuts. Very authentic!

First off and I know I am not alone: I found that Tobacco flavors started to sting too much, had too much of this byte that I didn't like. I found this happen to me as the memory of real tobacco started to fade and I realized that I enjoyed the sweet flavorful vapes and woke up to the fact that cigarettes actually tasted like crud.. especially looking back after a few months of vaping. I want to try RY5 as it sounds like this has the same RY4 taste but less of that tobacco sting to it. Otherwise, weirdly these flavors to reflect some of the brands they were modeled after.. I swear I don't know how they did it because the last time I had to smoke a real cigarette it tasted like the devils rectum. Weird as it sounds because I vape like there is no tomorrow.. I don't smoke. (after 27 years it's strange to say that)

Tobacco Flavors:All were 24mg samples except RY4 24mg 50/50 30ml

555 Tobacco A hint of what I remember from British Tobacco. Not quite enough of that odd flavor though.
Desert Ship Tobacco This has some sort of spice flavor to it.. mild with a tobacco sting. Meh...ok
Camtel Tobacco Similar to Desert Ship but without any spice.. it's a true tobacco flavor to be sure. Not bad if you like tobacco flavors.
RY4 Tobacco Seriously, even though I realize I don't like tobacco flavors anymore.. I never for one second regretted having 30ml of this (actually I think I went through a few bottles before I realized what was happening to me) Extra flavor on at least one bottle.. I kept suffering through the tobacco sting that I hate because the flavor was so so so good I couldn't help myself. No regrets.. I am going to order some RY5 as I think it looks like FSUSA made that one just for people like me.. god, it's so frickin good. If you have never tried it.. get a sample of RY4 and RY5 just to see which one you like best. You will never be complete as a vaper if you don't try the RY flavors.

I liked these flavors but they each were missing that extra something and I am not sure extra flavoring would fix this. They are good but... just that little something in each case made them juice I wouldn't get again. Other people really like most of these so it's probably just my taste verses other peoples tastes.

Good but lacking kick:Each one was 24mg 50/50 10ml-15ml

Pomegranate Taste like Pom... definitely but just not ka-pow enough! Needs much more tart!
Passionfruit Needs more tart, otherwise a good Passionfruit flavor.. almost like pineapple but tarter.
Wine, Red Quality flavor.. but again, just weak. This is probably a good wine flavor but I like deep flavors and I don't drink much ever. It's probably my taste demands that make this weak.. the flavor was there and authentic. How do you peg every red wine ever made? It's a good rounded flavor that they have created. You can't please everyone unless you reproduce 20-70 varieties of this.. unrealistic for the industry so all in all I still say 4.5 out of 5 stars for quality flavor.
HopScotch Ack! Too sweet! In a rare instance this flavor seemed to synthetic and that is super rare for FSUSA. I did not like. Others love this.
Butterscotch Too weak, not enough of what I crave in deep butterscotch flavor. I am still trying the various butterscotch and related carmel flavorings at FSUSA so maybe it's my taste or I haven't found the right one. This part of the flavor range isn't my priority.. and nearly all of these types of carmel/butterscotch flavors mix well with lots of things but alone just don't do it... maybe because of the simplicity of this flavor?

This last category is owning up to trying as many things are you think might taste good or just for the heck of it. Adventure always pays off but that doesn't mean that a lot of flavors just are not for you. Many of these rated very highly with other customers.. I like strong in your face flavor or I get all uninterested. So take that into consideration and I'll describe each flavor in the most clear reflection of my experience to maybe help you try one. .you might love it. It just didn't trip my stack index.

I tried it and felt an empty void: All of these were 24mg samplers.

Blueberry Coconut I tasted Coconut and blueberry in equal balance. I just didn't get a strong enough flavor...but the flavor was clearly blueberry and coconut. I am going to try Pinacolada in the near future as part of my Pineapple flavor quest, ongoing exploration into new flavors.
Billberry I swear it just didn't clarify itself.. I never got a sense of what this taste owed itself to. So I can't give you any sort of flavor report. It was mild sweet sort of berry something.. meh, almost tasted like Lychee if that helps.
Hypnotic Mist I didn't get it.. no idea what this flavor is, I vaped that 2.5ml and it never reached me.
Banana Taffy I discovered something important with this.. if you have alergy to banannas or mellons don't vape bananna essence! I tasted a taffy sort of.. very weak bananna then I got a terrible allergic reaction *my fault.. in my frenzy of trying new fun flavors only after I started to wonder what happened to me.. after a day or two I realized what I did and what's worse I was mixing it with other flavors so I had quite a few cartos to clean out before I could move forward.. chalk this one up to Doh!*
Italian Cake I thought it was just very sweet and little else. I didn't like it. no cake flavor I could taste.
Eggnog Not even close to eggnog. It just wasn't there.
Irish Cream Same lack of proper Irish cream flavor... it wasn't happening. no depth, just sweet.
Vienna Cream Just sweet.. but slightly more unique flavor than Eggnog or Irish Cream or Italian Cake. All lacked authentic flavor or any unique quality that would make them good. IMHO
Hypnotic Mist No.. not really hypnotic of interesting to me.. It was just another object passing outside my window on the road of sample juices.
Jungle Juice As much as I didn't want more this was a strong punch/genuine fruit flavor mix... so I think a lot of people who like fruit juices will like this one very much. It just didn't reach me for some reason.. but I don't like fruit juices that much unless they are super tart.. this was not overly sweet or synthetic. It was a nice juice, I just wasn't into it.
Butterscotch Almond Just not happening.. not sure I tasted almonds but then I couldn't care about that, I was searching for the butterscotch flavor and it did not have enough of that for me to be happy. yeah.. kind of weak on flavor but lots of others might like it. I give it a 2.5 star out of 5 or my Meh... award.

Lastly I should add that many of these trial sizes I was testing the first 30 days after I quit smoking.. and anyone new to vaping should understand that your tastebuds have a long journey of settling to go through.. it's a weird new thing that at first you don't notice until one day.. wow!@, what's that weird new taste?? oh.. that's what a hamburger tastes like.. no way!@ And from there it's a new ride, god only knows what you will think of things you have been eating all these years.

So, take my sample size ratings with that thought.. it was early on and weak (could be subtle but good flavors) didn't even register.. I moved on faster than a rabbit in heat looking for my next big thrill.

I drink strong dark coffee and I love strong deep flavors in general. Contrasting that I also love what could be described as flavors with light overtones that make the flavor what it is.. Torrone and Almond Amaretto could be flavors that fall into that category. FSUSA makes the most authentic flavors and has the widest range of experimental (and each one has a unique something that tends to make it worth a try) you can find anywhere. If it were not for these fine folks I think I would be less happy with vaping all together and it pains me to not like a flavor because I am an all or nothing type of person. My support isn't something I take lightly.. and once i support something I am in 100%. FreedomSmokeUSA deserves in all categories to be the biggest supplier and the supplier that sets the market trends for the vaping future. God help is if they get anything less.

Only 1-2 other vendors (that make their own flavors) even come close to the quality and none are even in the same class when it comes to flavor (ok, maybe 1 other vendor) but then there is price..my god, what else do I need to say.

FSUSA outclasses everyone else by some astronomical quantity, worth every penny and I haven't even scratched the surface on the variety they offer. Now that i have my beloved flavors I get the largest quantity of those to stock so I'll never be without them.. then I have a more conservative budget to try new flavors.. but you can see I have given it a good go to get settled in as quickly as I can and enjoy vaping to the fullest extent the law allows.

Karl will shut the heck up now.. obviously I love FreedomSmoke USA! They Totally Rock!

I rebuild my own CE2/CE3 coils so I am kind of a fairy princess when it comes to a clean coil.. I can slap in a new custom coil when I like.. and these Chocolate flavors tend to annoy me when I can't get through an entire 1ml without having to replace the coil. This is my only issue.. otherwise the authentic flavor is outstanding I just wish I could vape it without loosing coil longevity.
Some flavors are better than others and are not too bad.. Tiramisu verses the Extreeme version, I think Tootsie roll went down pretty good.. just something to maybe note and share your own comments. I don't want to doom these flavors because 99% are excellent reproductions and I want others to weigh in on this coil gumming effect. I am a very direct engineering person and probably don't know what tack is applied to an engineering issue.

Chocolate Candy Sampler Pack:24mg Samples

Babe Ruth Perfect, exactly like baby ruth
Budderfinger Perfect flavor replication.
Almond Pleasure Very chocolate flavored.. not sure I tasted almonds in there.
Tootsie Roll Bam, I swear they put a real tootsie roll in there!
SnickerZ It tasted exactly like Snickers.. you could really taste the peanuts. Very authentic!

First off and I know I am not alone: I found that Tobacco flavors started to sting too much, had too much of this byte that I didn't like. I found this happen to me as the memory of real tobacco started to fade and I realized that I enjoyed the sweet flavorful vapes and woke up to the fact that cigarettes actually tasted like crud.. especially looking back after a few months of vaping. I want to try RY5 as it sounds like this has the same RY4 taste but less of that tobacco sting to it. Otherwise, weirdly these flavors to reflect some of the brands they were modeled after.. I swear I don't know how they did it because the last time I had to smoke a real cigarette it tasted like the devils rectum. Weird as it sounds because I vape like there is no tomorrow.. I don't smoke. (after 27 years it's strange to say that)

Tobacco Flavors:All were 24mg samples except RY4 24mg 50/50 30ml

555 Tobacco A hint of what I remember from British Tobacco. Not quite enough of that odd flavor though.
Desert Ship Tobacco This has some sort of spice flavor to it.. mild with a tobacco sting. Meh...ok
Camtel Tobacco Similar to Desert Ship but without any spice.. it's a true tobacco flavor to be sure. Not bad if you like tobacco flavors.
RY4 Tobacco Seriously, even though I realize I don't like tobacco flavors anymore.. I never for one second regretted having 30ml of this (actually I think I went through a few bottles before I realized what was happening to me) Extra flavor on at least one bottle.. I kept suffering through the tobacco sting that I hate because the flavor was so so so good I couldn't help myself. No regrets.. I am going to order some RY5 as I think it looks like FSUSA made that one just for people like me.. god, it's so frickin good. If you have never tried it.. get a sample of RY4 and RY5 just to see which one you like best. You will never be complete as a vaper if you don't try the RY flavors.

I liked these flavors but they each were missing that extra something and I am not sure extra flavoring would fix this. They are good but... just that little something in each case made them juice I wouldn't get again. Other people really like most of these so it's probably just my taste verses other peoples tastes.

Good but lacking kick:Each one was 24mg 50/50 10ml-15ml

Pomegranate Taste like Pom... definitely but just not ka-pow enough! Needs much more tart!
Passionfruit Needs more tart, otherwise a good Passionfruit flavor.. almost like pineapple but tarter.
Wine, Red Quality flavor.. but again, just weak. This is probably a good wine flavor but I like deep flavors and I don't drink much ever. It's probably my taste demands that make this weak.. the flavor was there and authentic. How do you peg every red wine ever made? It's a good rounded flavor that they have created. You can't please everyone unless you reproduce 20-70 varieties of this.. unrealistic for the industry so all in all I still say 4.5 out of 5 stars for quality flavor.
HopScotch Ack! Too sweet! In a rare instance this flavor seemed to synthetic and that is super rare for FSUSA. I did not like. Others love this.
Butterscotch Too weak, not enough of what I crave in deep butterscotch flavor. I am still trying the various butterscotch and related carmel flavorings at FSUSA so maybe it's my taste or I haven't found the right one. This part of the flavor range isn't my priority.. and nearly all of these types of carmel/butterscotch flavors mix well with lots of things but alone just don't do it... maybe because of the simplicity of this flavor?

This last category is owning up to trying as many things are you think might taste good or just for the heck of it. Adventure always pays off but that doesn't mean that a lot of flavors just are not for you. Many of these rated very highly with other customers.. I like strong in your face flavor or I get all uninterested. So take that into consideration and I'll describe each flavor in the most clear reflection of my experience to maybe help you try one. .you might love it. It just didn't trip my stack index.

I tried it and felt an empty void: All of these were 24mg samplers.

Blueberry Coconut I tasted Coconut and blueberry in equal balance. I just didn't get a strong enough flavor...but the flavor was clearly blueberry and coconut. I am going to try Pinacolada in the near future as part of my Pineapple flavor quest, ongoing exploration into new flavors.
Billberry I swear it just didn't clarify itself.. I never got a sense of what this taste owed itself to. So I can't give you any sort of flavor report. It was mild sweet sort of berry something.. meh, almost tasted like Lychee if that helps.
Hypnotic Mist I didn't get it.. no idea what this flavor is, I vaped that 2.5ml and it never reached me.
Banana Taffy I discovered something important with this.. if you have alergy to banannas or mellons don't vape bananna essence! I tasted a taffy sort of.. very weak bananna then I got a terrible allergic reaction *my fault.. in my frenzy of trying new fun flavors only after I started to wonder what happened to me.. after a day or two I realized what I did and what's worse I was mixing it with other flavors so I had quite a few cartos to clean out before I could move forward.. chalk this one up to Doh!*
Italian Cake I thought it was just very sweet and little else. I didn't like it. no cake flavor I could taste.
Eggnog Not even close to eggnog. It just wasn't there.
Irish Cream Same lack of proper Irish cream flavor... it wasn't happening. no depth, just sweet.
Vienna Cream Just sweet.. but slightly more unique flavor than Eggnog or Irish Cream or Italian Cake. All lacked authentic flavor or any unique quality that would make them good. IMHO
Hypnotic Mist No.. not really hypnotic of interesting to me.. It was just another object passing outside my window on the road of sample juices.
Jungle Juice As much as I didn't want more this was a strong punch/genuine fruit flavor mix... so I think a lot of people who like fruit juices will like this one very much. It just didn't reach me for some reason.. but I don't like fruit juices that much unless they are super tart.. this was not overly sweet or synthetic. It was a nice juice, I just wasn't into it.
Butterscotch Almond Just not happening.. not sure I tasted almonds but then I couldn't care about that, I was searching for the butterscotch flavor and it did not have enough of that for me to be happy. yeah.. kind of weak on flavor but lots of others might like it. I give it a 2.5 star out of 5 or my Meh... award.

Lastly I should add that many of these trial sizes I was testing the first 30 days after I quit smoking.. and anyone new to vaping should understand that your tastebuds have a long journey of settling to go through.. it's a weird new thing that at first you don't notice until one day.. wow!@, what's that weird new taste?? oh.. that's what a hamburger tastes like.. no way!@ And from there it's a new ride, god only knows what you will think of things you have been eating all these years.

So, take my sample size ratings with that thought.. it was early on and weak (could be subtle but good flavors) didn't even register.. I moved on faster than a rabbit in heat looking for my next big thrill.

I drink strong dark coffee and I love strong deep flavors in general. Contrasting that I also love what could be described as flavors with light overtones that make the flavor what it is.. Torrone and Almond Amaretto could be flavors that fall into that category. FSUSA makes the most authentic flavors and has the widest range of experimental (and each one has a unique something that tends to make it worth a try) you can find anywhere. If it were not for these fine folks I think I would be less happy with vaping all together and it pains me to not like a flavor because I am an all or nothing type of person. My support isn't something I take lightly.. and once i support something I am in 100%. FreedomSmokeUSA deserves in all categories to be the biggest supplier and the supplier that sets the market trends for the vaping future. God help is if they get anything less.

Only 1-2 other vendors (that make their own flavors) even come close to the quality and none are even in the same class when it comes to flavor (ok, maybe 1 other vendor) but then there is price..my god, what else do I need to say.

FSUSA outclasses everyone else by some astronomical quantity, worth every penny and I haven't even scratched the surface on the variety they offer. Now that i have my beloved flavors I get the largest quantity of those to stock so I'll never be without them.. then I have a more conservative budget to try new flavors.. but you can see I have given it a good go to get settled in as quickly as I can and enjoy vaping to the fullest extent the law allows.

Karl will shut the heck up now.. obviously I love FreedomSmoke USA! They Totally Rock!

Awesome review dude. I seriously enjoyed reading the whole thing while I vaped on various FSUSA juices.

Ook, the latest batch of samples for me go as follows:

Candy cane: 8/10, good peppermint that seems to have been slightly watered down with a very sweet flavor, maybe a vanilla. Very good flavor tho, not nearly as "powerful" as the wintergreen I've reviewed here earlier. Worth ordering a big bottle if you like peppermint, and the other minty flavors here at FSUSA are too powerful.

Strawberry Banana: 6/10, Very similar to a lot of the "specialty" fruity flavors in that it's more sour than it should be. Can't distinctly taste either strawberry or banana. Tastes like a mix between a spree and a smartee candy. not a bad flavor, but the low rating is because it's not what I expected, or was looking for. Would really have liked this flavor to be a little sweeter and taste like a strawberry banana smoothie

Cherry Bubble pop: 9/10, very nice. It's more like a cherry cotton candy than a bubble gum but I do like it. The cherry taste is faint, but the flavor is good. It's like a light cotton candy flavor with a good TH. I'd recommend extra flavor and a week of steeping with this one, but I will order it again.

Hazelnut: 9/10, No other way to put it, it's nice. Not too sweet, not too "nutty" like the nut mix. Would make a nice all-day vape for people who like nutty flavors.

Creme Brulee': 8/10, It tastes great, Could be a little sweeter. Would be a 9/10 if it wasn't such a dark, thick juice. It's as dark of a juice as they come, and will overpower an atty or a carto easily, and if you use it in a ce2 it's thick enough to over-wick, causing a nasty gurgle, juice in mouth, and other potential problems. I also think that it'd be very thick in a boge carto and perhaps not wick properly.

Pepsii: 5/10. It does kinda taste like a soft drink, but a flat soft drink, and most of us do not get along well with flat soda. It's also a seriously dark juice, but not nearly as THICK as the creme brulee. If you want the taste of flat soda in your vape, go ahead and get it. But until they find a way to replicate some of the fizzy-ness of a carbonated beverage, I will avoid anything that's supposed to taste like soda. It's vapable, otherwise I would have given it a lower score. Not good enough to "like" it, but not bad enough to throw it out.

All testing done on a 3.4v ego-T with a SLB LR atty.
