Don't toss it. There are plenty of people who like it. PIF it or sell it.


I'm gonna have to do that with mine too, trade it or give it away. Same burnt popcorn taste, STILL. YUCK.

Honestly, my experience w/ HHV wasn't positive enough to repeat it (I won't order from them again, not anytime soon anyway). It is ALL subjective, I KNOW that, everyone knows that....but for ME.....out of the 3 e-liquids I tried....MJS was TERRIBLE, Pirate's Booty made me sick to my stomach, and STILL tastes like perfume......and Blueberry Muffin was pretty nice, but actually ended up getting WORSE as time went on. Got a gunky texture to it in its original bottle, and the smell turned kind of icky.

Thank god there are so many e-liquid vendors out :) We all have such different tastes!

I love several of the HHV juices, just as Dragon's Fire, Serendipity, Heavenly Army, Shadow and Heavenly Tobacco. But I just can't get along with Mocha Java Smooth. And Blueberry Muffin is just ok to me - not bad but not great - although some people love it.

And I do like Pirate's Booty, but I don't vape it that often.

As you said, it's great that we have so many choices among vendors. There were many vendors whose juices came highly recommended, and I tried and hated them.

I haven't tried a "coffee" juice yet that didn't taste like burnt popcorn to me.

for whatever reason, on of the best coffee juices I've tasted is the one v2 sells, they just recently made it available in bottles (they held out only selling them as cartos for a long time). not sure they say it on their page, but be warned that their juices are 100% PG mixes, if that's a concern.

As others have noted, I don't think you have tried their go to flavors. No vendor has great flavors across the board. Even with the vendors that I like, I only really like maybe 10-20% of their flavors and another 20% are passable. I like HHV, but they do make a lot of stuff I don't like. 3 flavors (especially with one of them being coffee, which, IMO, no vendor does right) is not going to be a large enough sample size to completely avoid a vendor.

I will note that Apollo's coffee in their disposable ecigs was the best I have ever had, and I will bet it's the same stuff as V2 (those companies seem to use a lot of the same suppliers). I tried the stuff Apollo sells in a bottle but it's clearly not the same stuff (they must use a different supplier for their juices vs. their prefilled cartos), and I don't want to pay the added cost of pre filled cartos or disposables. Maybe I will try V2's stuff, or if you do let us know if it's good.
