Got it today, didn't wait to go at it. It's 0 nic for night or whenever. It's lightly sweet, but not overpowering. I swear I taste 'white cake', just the right amount of vanilla, butter (?), whipped frosting and something else...I'll figure it out this weekend and I really, really like it. This one's a keeper and getting a bigger bottle next time, and I don't eat cake much.

Great new 10ml bottle, easier to squeeze those drops out....nice.

I am glad to hear that the Italian Cake Flavor is good. I ended up getting it b/c one of the flavors I originally ordered was on back order (no biggie...with such great flavors to choose from it's a good bet I'll get something I will like). I saw Italian Cake at the grocery store once and have never eaten the real thing. Maybe if I like the vape it will be a good excuse to try a new desert.

Ok, here's the first few reviews of my mega juice order:

Tranquil: this was a free sample, so I tried it first. There's a hint of fruit, maybe apple? Slightly sweet, seems to be an herb flavor, thought maybe a lavender, maybe slight sage. Not bad, kind of pleasant. Not sure if I'll buy a larger bottle.

Blueberry Pancake: also a free sample. This one is GOOD! I can taste the pancake and the blueberry, and just a hint of a buttery flavor. Definitely getting a larger one of this.

Orange Crush: Can taste the orange, slightly sweet, almost taste carbonation in this. Would be nice for a light vape in summer, I think. Might get a larger bottle.

That's it so far, don't want to overdo it on the new flavors in one evening.

Finally got to try Crunch Berries! Here's the thing...I love the cereal. In fact I often go on tears where I will eat nothing but it for a few days so I was totally excited about this one. Here's the good and the bad.

The good news is that this juice tastes almost identical to the cereal. The bad thing is is that I'm not sure I like vaping cereal. Nothing wrong with the juice...they did a good job on it but I don't know if it's my thing. A little too savory for me. Definitely can taste the cereal part of it. Going to let it sit a bit and try it again. Plus it sticks really long in my atty.

I also gave Ryder a fair shake tonight and I really like it. Tastes a lot like Max/Boro but I think it's a bit more hearty and rich. Pretty good stuff.

I also tried Raspberry Tea which wasn't bad either.

Ok, here's more:

Butterfinger: good, can taste the peanut butter and chocolate, creamy taste. Don't know if it's a favorite, but good.

Lemon Square: a little tart for me, don't really like this one. Tastes a little orange-y. Maybe the orange crush was still in the atty. Will try it again later.

Appletini: okay, this one I'll definitely get a larger bottle of. Sweet, very apple-y taste, nice and light flavor. Yummmmmmm!

I'm only trying the samples right now, letting the 5 ml bottles steep a bit. They're in the cabinet (away from the kitty) with their tops off for the night.

I ordered a bunch of sample sizes, and here's the flavors I've gotten around to trying:

FruityLoops: I can't believe how wonderful this tastes. It's like a fresh torrent of Fruit Loops pouring into your cereal bowl on a Saturday morning.
Flavor accuracy: 5/5
Flavor strength: 4/5
Throat hit: 2/5
Vapor: 5/5

Life's Good: A cherry Jolly Rancher with a very cool exhale. Very tangy, sweet and delicious!
Flavor accuracy: 5/5
Flavor strength: 4/5
Throat hit: 4/5
Vapor: 4/5

Perique Black: Half cigarette, half cigar. Very ashy. Reminiscent of PureCig, but with a much bolder taste, and a hint of fruit. Yum!
Flavor accuracy: who knows!
Flavor strength: 4/5
Throat hit: 5/5
Vapor: 4/5

Tangerine Sky: A sour, yet mellow flavor. Quite pleasant.
Flavor accuracy: 4/5
Flavor strength: 3/5
Throat hit: 5/5
Vapor: 4/5

Fruit Basket: This is a hard one to pin down. There's so much fruitiness packed into that little bottle it's truly amazing. I taste some pineapple, cherry, apple, strawberry, and other things! Easily the most intense fruit flavor I've tried.
Flavor accuracy: 5/5
Flavor strength: 6/5
Throat hit: 5/5
Vapor: 5/5

99 Bananas: Circus peanuts, with a distinct alcohol flavor on exhale. Very intriguing.
Flavor accuracy: N/A (never tried the alcoholic drink, but I love me some circus peanuts!)
Flavor strength: 4/5
Throat hit: 4/5
Vapor: 5/5

Pepsii: Wow... spot-on flavor!
Flavor accuracy: 5/5
Flavor strength: 4/5
Throat hit: 4/5
Vapor: 4/5

Candy Cane: This is a beautiful vape, with a hint of cinnamon and peppermint. Think of the red and white striped candy canes. It makes my mouth feel cool and refreshed. Ahhhh.
Flavor accuracy: 5/5
Flavor strength: 5/5
Throat hit: 5/5
Vapor: 5/5

Fat Tire: I AM IN LOVE! It's got that alcohol taste like 99 Bananas, but much more potent. It's a light beer with a strong taste, if that makes sense. For some reason, this flavor makes me giggly.
Flavor accuracy: 6/5
Flavor strength: 5/5
Throat hit: 5/5
Vapor: 4/5

Cocoa Chaos: It's a much more genuine chocolate taste than other companies. Like hot cocoa made with dark chocolate.
Flavor accuracy: 4/5
Flavor strength: 4/5
Throat hit: 3/5
Vapor: 5/5

UpWoods: Oh boy, how do I describe this... Think of Wyatt Earp with less tobacco and licorice, then throw in some fruit, honey, and a hiking trip. It's like that, but even harder to pin down. The most complex flavor I've tried.
Flavor accuracy: who knows!
Flavor strength: 4/5
Throat hit: 4/5
Vapor: 4/5
 
I'm new to this experience and have only tried a few juices so far so take my reviews with a grain of salt. Also, all the flavors I'm reviewing here are 50/50 and I got them with the extra flavor option.

Appletini: This is my absolute favorite by a mile. That flavor is dead on and and very smooth. It's very difficult to put down once you start. You may even have the overwhelming urge to want to drink the juice because you wont be able to get enough (don't do that! :laugh:). I will be ordering a huge bottle of this tonight.
Flavor: 10/10
Flavor strength: 7/10
Throat hit: 7/10

OrangeCreamsicle: Another good flavor that is fairly accurate; however, I feel that the flavor doesn't come through as strong as I would like. You will most certainly want to add extra flavor, maybe even 2x Extra if you prefer a stronger flavor like myself.
Flavor: 8/10
Flavor Strength: 6/10
Throat hit: 7/10

JungleJuice: I'm having a hard time putting my finger on this one. There's definitely a fruity flavor that may be a bit overpowering at times, nevertheless, it's not bad.
Flavor: 7/10
Flavor Strength: 9/10
Throat hit: 8/10

Cookies 'N' Cream: There's definitely a cookies and cream flavor there that is fairly accurate. It's not my favorite, but it's good. Not too overpowering or harsh.
Flavor: 7/10
Flavor Strength: 7/10
Throat hit: 7/10

Fruity Loops: I have to be honest and say this is probably my least favorite of the juices I've tried. I find it to have a rather pronounced perfume like flavor with an undertone of Fruit Loops which doesn't really suit my tastes.
Flavor: 5/10
Flavor Strength: 8/10
Throat hit: 7.5/10

I've been vaping the peppermint mocha all day, and this is going right up there in my favorites next to Wyatt Earp, PureCig, both RY's and Cap Smooth. Already have a 60 ml because I was that sure I'd like this one, but I'm going to get another big bottle to steep, because it's not gonna last very long! Best juice so far out of my mega order. :)

received a sample of "lifes good" I must say, this is pretty good...Haven't had much of a variety in juices, but it really does have a distinct flavor of jolly ranchers. Vapor production is great, filled my entire car up with vapor, kinda looked like a hotbox going on. throat hit is perfect for me, not too strong not too weak. overall I would purchase of this in the near future. I like this one!

First off, thanks FSUSA! Order arrived as per request. Hand signed invoice was a pleasing personal touch, nice to see a company that takes the time to show they are "human", and appreciate their customer! ;v)

Only 2 short reviews, both done on a 5v pass through, using 808D cartomizers.

*Wyatt Earp*=50%PG-50%VG, 30mg nic. Juice is a dark brown, and fairly thick, from the 50% VG i assume. So made sure to fill my cart well, and give it a good 30 minutes to "wick", or soak in. This stuff is a sock knocker. Amazing flavor sure to kill that tobacco craving you may be having. It has a deep, rich, smoky inhale, with a sweet RED MAN chewing tobacco exhale, with a hint of black licorice. When i say a "RED MAN" chewing tobacco exhale, i mean it in a good way, not the spit flavor, but the essence of the chewing tobacco itself, sweet, almost maple like. Being 50%VG, it DOES mildly lack on the throat hit, but surprisingly DOES NOT disappoint on the flavor end. Vapor production is great. An all around great juice, perfect for that morning espresso. Definitely WOULD order again!

*Cucumber Melon*=Mixture of PG/VG unknown, but 24mg nic. This juice is amazingly clear, not overly thick. I personally like clear juice, as i use carts. Carts seem to gum up with darker liquids. This was a 3ml sample(thank you!). When i saw the name of the flavor of the sample, i had one of those "wtf?" moments. Cucumber melon? Really? But i loaded a cart regardless, and gave it a whirl. WOW! In real life, i love cucumber on salad, or just to dip in dressing. I also really love melons, any kind really, easy pervs. ;v) This juice is smooth, has a very clean and distinct flavor, completely encompassing both the cucumber, and the melon. It's a little odd to get used to using it, but it certainly is a great flavor if you are looking for a flavor that doesn't "stick to the roof of your mouth". The throat hit is above average, but mild, and the vapor production is perfect.

Whoever invented these flavors certainly deserves a pat on the .... from me.

On a 1-10 scale *Wyatt Earp* at it's 50-50 mix, 30mg nic gets a 9.5.

On a 1-10 scale *CucumberMelon* whatever mix it may be, 24mg nic gets a 8.5.

On a 1-10 scale FSUSA gets an 11, good folks, amazing email communication/updating, you've found a new customer here. Thanks again, and keep up the gooooooood work!

Figured I'd do a quick review of all the flavors I've tried from FSUSA so far. Everything I order from FSUSA is 50/50 24mg and put through Boge non-LR 510 cartos on a fully-charged eGo 650mAH, unless otherwise noted.

555 - Very nutty aura to it, like a hazelnut, slight hint of popcorn on some vapes. Didn't need to let it sit/steep, tastes good right out of the package. I give it an 9/10.

RY4 - Has a slight hint of caramel taste to it, but also a strong chemical taste, almost as if I'm vaping a Dekang juice(and I hate Dekang juices, honestly). Not sure if it was a bad batch, or if I'm simply just not liking it, as it does seem rather popular among the vapers out there. I've only had it for a few days, so I will let it steep for a week and give it another chance. At this time I'll have to give it a 4/10. *I'm told by several people that this one gets better when steeped for at least a week*

Wyatt Earp - Received a free 3ml sample with my first order. Smells sort of like a freshly cut lawn that had a few tobacco plants in it(wierd, but that's all that came to mind when smelling it haha), but the taste actually wasn't bad at all. The best I can explain this one is...it's almost as if you've gone back in time 20 years and are smoking an unfiltered full-flavor tobacco analog from that time, before they started shoving more and more chemicals in them...but doesn't have the harshness you'd get from an unfiltered analog. I give this one an 8.5/10. *I'm told by several people that this one gets better when steeped for at least a week*

Watermelon - Has that candy watermelon flavor to it, sort of like a jolly rancher, rather than a real watermelon taste. Hasn't been too bad so far, I could see this being one of my go-to juices. Is a little thicker than most of the liquids I have here, but my cartos seem to wick it just fine. I give it an 8/10.

Thin Mint Cookie - Definitely smells and tastes like the name, didn't need to let it steep at all. Another juice I would consider vaping on a normal basis. Vaped on a Boge 2.0ohm cartomizer. 8.5/10.

Cappuccino - This one doesn't have much of a smell to it, but maybe that's just me. As for taste, I'd say it was more like a lighter blend of coffee rather than a cappuccino(folgers morning blend came to mind while vaping). I could see myself keeping a bottle of this around for some morning vaping. Vaped on a Boge 2.0ohm cartomizer. I give this one an 8/10.

Vanilla Tahity - Received a free 3ml sample with my second order. Smells a bit like a vanilla air freshener, wouldn't say that was a bad thing since I like vanilla air fresheners(lol). As for the taste, it's a very mellow hint of vanilla. It's hard to decide if I like this one or not, as I was expecting a stronger smell/taste, due to being a huge fan of vanilla. I'll let it sit for a week or so, and try again. This was vaped on a Boge 2.0ohm cartomizer. For now it gets a 6/10.

Cocoa Chaos - Haven't tried yet, has a nice smell of a baking-type of cocoa/chocolate. Very dark and looks a bit on the thick side, a bit worried that it might gunk up my cartos so I'll use it on a non-LR before putting it through my new LRs. Those of you with MAP tanks or clearomizers may want to be careful with this one, the darker liquids I'm told can stain tanks/tubes. Will update once I've vaped it.

And we can't forget...FSUSA - Great company to deal with, prices are reasonable. I especially enjoy reading all the thank you notes they write on the invoices, and the free samples they throw in are pretty cool too...had it not been for that, I would have never ended up trying the Wyatt Earp. Great customer service, definitely deserves a 10/10.

Note: I had the idea of mixing half of the cappuccino with half of the vanilla tahity for a "french vanilla cappuccino" flavor, not sure how well it will turn out but I'll let them each steep for a week before trying. I'll be sure to post an update about it.

Also, I'm not one to throw stuff away, so whatever I don't like even after steeping will be tried again either by dripping or once I get around to ordering a 5ml MAP tank mod.

johnnydotexe - FSUSA doesn't add any artificial sweeteners, etc., so there shouldn't be a chemical taste in your RY4. Take the cap and dripper off and let it air overnight. The next day, shake the bottle well and then let it steep for at least a week. As you might already realize, most of FSUSA's liquids need to steep to develop full flavor.

I'm glad you're enjoying Thin Mint Cookie; it's one of my favorites. Also, as you figured out, it needs no steep time.

Concerning thickness of the juices; no need to worry. FSUSA juices don't clog up cartomizers or atomizers. :)

Thanks for the info. I went through my last post and edited/updated some things. Anything I didn't care for that much will steep for a week before being tried again, and will also either be dripped or thrown in the MAP tank to give them one last chance. This way I can find out if they just needed to steep, or if they just weren't that great out of a carto.

I agree about not clogging atty's or cartos. WE is a dark juice and I have been using it in one 808 carto for so long that I have worn the color off of the end of the carto. I now have a copper carto that is also half white.
