Not that my opinion mattes to much and we all know that everybody has there own tastebuds but I figure I'll give a little review of my first giant step into the e juice world. I purchase from Gourmet Vapor, Halo, Joogler juice, Freedomsmokeusa and Rockstar vapor. The reasons I chose the vendors was reviews like these and a few had some good memorial day sales going on. I vaped these out of a joye 510 and a blu with a cartomizer.

Freedomsmokeusa - This was my first order. Great customer support and fast shipping. The juices were already steeped which is a big plus. I tried 9 different flavors and to keep things short I'll touch base with a few. All 9 flavors 24 mg 80/20 split. Every flavor ordered tasted like high quality juice. No weird chemical taste or anything like that. They even threw in a few freebies as well. The best was double mint gum, kickin apple and the new port. Even the flavors that I didnt care a lot for were just off taste and not a quality problem. None of the nine flavors tasted horrible. Will def order from again.

Halo - I'll start off with the packaging. Very professional. I bought the sampler pack and it comes with a halo tin. Some of these other vendors products look like they are being made in a garage (some might be) compared to the Halo packaging. The juices 7 flavors in all are ok. They have some interesting flavors. The torque 56 and the freedom juice both have great flavor. I didn't really dislike any of the 7 flavors. Shipping was quick but they seem to be a bit pricey over some of the other venders. I would order from them again if they are running a sale or have a coupon code.

Rockstar Vapor - Fast shipping and great prices. Thats about the only good thing I can say about them though. I ordered 5 flavors and can only stomach 1 and thats the chocolate carmel. The rest which include Mt Dew, Green Apple, stwberry and tobacco menthol taste way to much like perfume. The menthol taste like scope mouthwash. I have tried to allow for steeping but the flavor hasn't improved. Overall I can't get past the weird chemical taste they have and probably won't be ordering from them again. Taste is dif for everybody though.

Joogler juice - I bought 1 flavor which is the honey suckle. They have fast shipping even though they spammed my email inbox about 50 times after they had some kind of email problems. They have great prices and even though I've only tried one flavor it seems they have very good e juice. I will buy from them again.

Gourmet Vapor - I bought 6 flavors from them. Their shipping time was the slowest out of all the vendors I ordered from. Hawiian punch, red bull, blk amaretto, vanilla gorilla, wintergreen and perfect orange are the flavors ordered. They are actually kind of bland and the red bull tastes nothing like the real thing. None seem to have any weird chemical taste but none of the flavors just blow me away either. I'm going to have to do some more sampling of these to determine 100% if I'll order from them again or not.

I'm off to do some more sampling. I hope this didn't bore everybody to death and maybe it will help anybody thats thinking about ordering.

Def reply back and tell me what you thought about gourmet vapor. I'm hoping after they have some more time to steep the flavors will get stronger.

You're off to a great start as a vaper and a juice reviewer.

Thanks for the encouragement. The variety and all the flavors of the e juice is the best part of vaping imo. Being analog free is pretty nice as well. After watching reviews on youtube and reading them on here I realize that its a lot harder to give a review than I thought. Relaying what you really got out of the juice can be hard to do at times. Plus taste is so subject to each individual person its hard to tell if the people reading your review will understand. Its a lot of fun though.

ok tried my flavor own mint mocha royale. its yummy. super dark, thought the bottle was brown lol i liked the camel mocha mint cigs that were discontinued as a smoker and tried to mimic it. i taste mostly coffee light undertone of peppermint, tobacco barely there. not too sweet but some on inhale. im gonna take some and mix it with sweetener and have some sweet peppermint coffee. not trying to pat myself on the back lol not a lot of throat hit and i took some huge drags but some. vapor is not impressive

You may have a winner. I don't remember which supplier it was after looking through so many but one site was offering some kind of prize for the best "do it yourself flavor". Was it gourmetvapor? If not maybe some of these veteran vapers know what site it is. I was a bit afraid to go to far off the beaten path on my first few orders but now I think I'm going to ramp it up a little bit. I'm still trying to figure out what I like and what I don't like.

Me too, but its fun trying to figure it all out! i like the coffees, and tobacco mixes, and oddly fruity minty mixes.... this is 70/30 but i bet 100%vg would tone down the coffee and add increased vapor. thats the cool thing you go under your account and change it or add notes. Also, the name is on the bottle :)

i sure wouldnt mind winning a contest, but i dont think its that original
