There was a Halo liquid that came in my first sampler pack that tasted like kerosene. I took one hit off it and threw it in the trash lol.
It was a clear liquid, I don't remember the name because I chunked it right away lol.
Halo is pretty awful, with the exception of Kringles Curse mixed with menthol which I vape from time to time for vapors tongue. Midnight Apple was horrendous to me. Nasty old dime store perfume. Just terrible.

Have you vaped it yet? I'll agree with you that out of the bottle it smells like solvent but at 7 watts it's an amazingly light, subtle flavor. I'm on my second 236ml bottle of 12mg 80/20 one shot.

One thing I've learned: Vape it first, if it's not great then steep, but vape it first.

I tried it right out of the box and tasted like turp/acetone,mineral spirits. It's been sitting for over a month and it still smells the same. Maybe I'll take a couple of tequila shots and try it tonight. Hope you're right....love a good pear!

I haven't tried any, but some folks say Pink Spot has some pretty nasty juices. You would think they would be top shelf because of the price! Anyone had any nasty Pink Spot?
I have tried several, chemical off taste/some perfumish. Surprisingly, Banana Nut Bread was spot on and actually quite tasty. Pink spot and Blue Spot sweet and fruity but non-descript. Pineapple.... Tastes like a sour dishrag..no pineapple note to be found..even after 2 month steep..same. Grape Lime Rickey..the worst..purple toilet bowl cleaner. Too many disappointments to try any more.

ETA: I tried alot of them in 2011 on my first short-lived vaping journey. I thought most of them were OK..so when I picked up vaping again I went back to them. I hadn't tried many other vendors before. Now in comparison I think they have a high priced not so good juice line-up.

With no disrespect for the vendors. there have been a couple that just make me shudder.

Early on I ordered some juices from Vape Dojo, their Myagi MIx was horrible just disgusting. Some kind of fruit/licorice mix that was gag worthy.

I also remember ordering some cucumber mint juice, I can't remember whose though, that just made me toss it in the trash. Yuk

I was also so very disappointed with VV's Organic Caramel Kona Milkshake. I hated it, after 2 full months steep, I hated it more. There's a chemical taste that has no caramel, no coffee, just blech. I don't get this since I read so many good reviews.

The other one I can say was horrible was Hurrican Vapor Storm Juice Cinnamon Roasted Almonds. Horrible weird chemical taste that doesn't change after steeping for weeks and weeks.

First let me state that I am a coffee lover, I drink way too much of it. I like many different coffees, from many different regions. Unfortunitly every coffee flavored E-juice I have tried tastes like a cross between three day old coffee and as the OP stated ..... I really wish I could find a good one. I no longer buy any, but will taste if in a new B & M that has one.

Had a friend send me juice that he diys.. well he loves his coffee flavors.. unfortunately he used a syringe that had made coffee juice when making blueberry and apple pie for me..

And I cant tell which is which when smelling or vaping.. just coffee.. which is unfortunate bc I hate coffee.. and it is real hard to get the flavor out of the clearomizer. ..

Coffee is just such an overpowering flavor.. cant even tell blueberry or apple pie are there at all & were made at 13%

I can has tapatalked this.

A mistake I have learned to not repeat. I never re-use syringes unless it's one I use just for measuring nic-liquid. Or bottles as sometimes some of the stronger flavors permeate those as well. You can contaminate juices easy just by re-using bottles. They are cheap enough to just throw away anyway. Syringes too.

thus far the nastiest for me has been The Darkness (not to be confused with Rick James’s nickname for Eddie Murphy) by Rocky Top Vapor. now since i started vaping i’ve only had e-juices from Apollo, and they make some mighty fine juices if i do say so myself. but a couple of months ago i felt it was time to venture out in the world and try something different. so i happened upon Rocky Top Vapor and figured since i prefer coffee flavored juices then i’d get what they consider their best coffee flavored juice, The Darkness.

omg was that stuff horrid! granted, it’s been a few weeks since i last tried it so i can’t really remember what it was i hated about it. but i do remember pouring it out of my glassomizer after a couples of hours trying to get used to it. i still have a full bottle of the stuff, so i’m tempted to try again just to freshen my memory and give a more in-depth review but i just don’t wanna waste a perfectly good coil head. i think i have an old CE4 around here somewhere that i washed out awhile back, if i find it i’ll get back to you guys.
