Okay, I'm trying to find the one juice that I would love to vape all day. So far, being new to vaping and Halo, having just gotten my Triton tank about 2 weeks ago, I haven't had a chance to try all of the flavors. So far just Torque 56 and Turkish Tobacco.

Torque 56 is a nice vape, and is surprisingly addictive. It was far sweeter than I thought it was going to be though. I was expecting something completely different for the description. At first I thought I had mistakenly gotten the Midnight Apple mislabeled, since that was what I was tasting direct for the mailbox. After a few weeks, the sweet is still there, although a bit diminished.

Turkish Tobacco is also sweet, but has that cardamom zinger spice to it. It's my wind down in the evening vape and quite soothing.

From reading the descriptions, and reviews, all of Halo tobaccos seem to have a sweetness to them. But taste is subjective and it's difficult to sort through them. One reviewer said Torque was ashy before steeping. Not in my case.

Being off the analogs only a few weeks now, I really don't want a sweet tobacco, unless it hits like a cigar and the sweetness is more or an afterthought.

So, I'm just polling opinions from those that have tried most of these non-menthol flavors. I know that I'll be staying away from Midnight Apple and Tribecca and Tiki juice, since those will be more sweetness than I'm looking for straight up. Feel free to pipe in, and I thank all of those that take the time to do so.

Given what you said you're looking for, try Bella Valente (really strong tobacco / cigar flavor) or Longhorn. Longhorn is a touch sweeter, and not as strong, with some sort of very very subtle chocolate / cherry finish. Bella is awesome, after steeping, but I can't vape it around anyone. The smell is STRONG and doesn't resemble the flavor at all. My girlfriend (who also vapes) describes it as "feet". But the flavor is wonderful.

I was going to give Freedom Juice and/or Longhorn a try. They discontinued Bella Valente (as well as Smooth 8), but they do have a new mystery flavor coming along, but not certain if it'll be a tobacco juice or not.

I'm still enjoying the Torque 56 and will keep that in my rotation. I didn't pick up the sample pack because it included a few things I knew I wouldn't be interested in at this time. I still enjoy Turkish, but it's a bit light, although it is soothing. Just light.

Thanks again, Yinzer.

to me, Prime 15 was always the least sweet. It plays well with Tribeca and Torque when mixed, too.
Just sampled the Prime 15 and out of the 6 flavors in the Halo Tobacco Sampler I'd have to agree it is definitely the most 'dry'. My tongue is a bit burnt but I'm getting basically a roasted almond flavor with just a whisper of sweet. Maybe a tiny hint of salt too.

Someone said once it reminded them of peanut butter, and now that's always the first thing I taste with it when I switch to it. Power of suggestion, because a few drags in and "nutty" doesn't stay as the biggest flavor to me. Definitely a dry tobacco.
