What I'd be most interested in are, sour apple flavors, strawberry flavors, blue raspberry flavors, caramel flavors like ry4, ry5, caramel cappuccino, and possibly any fruit flavors that really pop, and have a sour/jolly rancherish bite. Is this something FSUSA is good at? I watched some you tube reviews about this place from DogandClay, and I must say im pretty excited to try the strawberry kiwi at the very least. Has anyone else tried it? :) Is it recommended to get extra flavor with all juices? Do they need to steep a long time, or good right out of the box? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks guys!

Hello Pazazu,

For fruit flavors, my favorite is Just Peachy. I also like coconut cream a lot! My husband is into the strawberry flavors. He's not tried strawberry kiwi, but he loves strawberry cream and strawberry banana. I like the ry4 and ry5, but prefer the ry5. If you like caramel, definitely try the hopscotch! Also, you might want to try Applewood. It has a slight hint of a tobacco taste, but it taste more like green apples.

I never order extra flavor, but I know some people do. You will need to steep the liquids, but the time depends on the size of the bottles. For example, samples and/or 10 ml. bottles are probably fine right away. 30 ml. bottles should steep for a few days. 60 ml. and 120 ml. take longer. I typically stock up, so when I run out of a flavor, I already have bottles ready to use.

Let us know which flavors you decide to order!

I went ahead and ordered the ry5 and the strawberry kiwi. I like the idea of a sweeter ry4. While I do love the ry4 flavors I've tried, I must say the tobacco is my least favorite flavor in the blend lol. I'd love to find a flavor that is like ry4 without the tobacco, maybe a caramel cappuccino! I got the ry5 with extra flavor, and the strawberry kiwi normal. I'll let you know hwo they turn out once I try them :) I'm thinking of starting to do you tube e-juice reviews for fun, and to help my favorite vendors soon too :)

I recently started vaping their strawberry cheesecake it is delicious lots of strawberry flavor but not much in the way of cheesecake,which I like,it's there just a lot more strawberry. as vaporgal said just peachy is fantastic as wells as hopscotch another real good one is gummy bear, I speak to A LOT of people here in Tucson that vape and a large percent of them love gummybear.

Thanks Tomb, i'll check them out. I got my FSUSA order today, not impressed with the ry5 or strawberry kiwi straight out of the box, its gonna take some steeping. The ry5 is just horrible, and its got a chemical smell that makes you want to puke lol. They sent me a caramel apple sample as well but haven't tried it yet. I had to break out my secret stash of my favorite ry4 aka liquid crack just to get this smell out of my protank. Hate doing that cause it kills clearomizer wicks very fast.

A comment about the Applewood. DH and I don't do any fruit flavors (or many other flavors that vary much from butterscotch and caramel) but FSUSA Applewood is one of our base flavors. We usually mix it with Butterscotch Almond, or Butterscotch, our other two base flavors but I sometimes vape it alone AND it isn't too appley. DH loves it alone and he hates Apple flavors that he's tried. I would describe the smoked note as more woody than tobacco. We don't do tobacco flavors any more after first few months vaping. We shudder to imagine running out of FSUSA Applewood. Last week we got in 2xx ml (120 0 nic as DH wants to start reducing nic percentage, slowly) of it without discount and couldn't pass up just ordering 2xx more ml with the MD discount code. Hope it will last us till next sale. We can substitute other brands of Butterscotch, although we'd rather not, or DIY, if we run out of it but we have found no other juice brand or DIY recipe that we can substitute for FSUSA Applewood. It's magic. I refer to it as our "beloved Applewood."

The Apple in Applewood mellows some with steeping but we sometimes use it after a couple days steeping. Last week we used it fresh from package and it still wasn't too appley for us.

Well just an update, after a 1 week steep the strawberry kiwi is not too bad. I kinda like it. The ry5 is still not good, I think they must be using a bad caramel flavoring. I even cut it down with a bit of usa mix, and its still got a chemical taste.

I'll probably stick to the fruity flavors from FSUSA, it seems every vendor has their niche flavors that they hit really well, and others are not as good. I'm not going to bother with the ry5 anymore, in my opinion, if I buy a product, and have to let it sit for an entire month before it hits useable form, its not for me. If that's the case with e juices, they should be pre-steeped, and ready to roll out of the mail.

I agree, I have a bottle of ry5 I bought months ago and the last time I tried it it still had that strange chemical taste

ive never really steeped in my 30ML bottles.....they are good to vape out the box but steeping does improve the taste....if im completely out then i vape right out the box and then let steep so my next refill will be good to go......also i transfer my juices into little 3ml bottles to put in my vape kit for traveling which gets it moving around a bit........
