Think you'll enjoy it Ms. Keyzy.
Ms. Kurora you're quite welcome.
Lady Eleanor would compare it most to a blend of wow and premium smilin menthol actually. Where the wow smilin is very heavy coffee (again taste is subjective, just need to throw that out again) with a very slight mint in the middle, and the premium is a milky chocolate mint mix, Java mint is a minty dark chocolate with coffee on the end. It's quite an interesting flavor.
As for Jammin....
On first sniff check, didn't get much smell at all. Decided to give the bottle a few good shakes and go back to it in an hour, which worked to it's benefit. Second sniff check could smell a light vanilla and caramel. Went ahead and filled a 2.3ohm wow carto with it, pulled out a trusty king diamond shorty, and vaped away. First thing that hits is the vanilla for me, then the caramel, followed by a very smooth tobacco. If Colonel Caramel is the anti-RY4, this would be the anti-Col. Caramel. While the two flavors share the same aspects, they are completely different. Th was all nic on this one, could very much tell it was a 24mg juice. This was the thinnest of the USA juices to date, putting it around a 30/70 mix or so, with vapor production to match (think in terms of your average wow juice). The one issue I did run into was a scortching taste when ran at 5v on the pt. Not sure if it needs to steep longer or if 10.85watts was too much for it, but will follow up on that in about a week. All in all, the flavor delivered what was promised, another good showing for the USA line.
Up next, Java Junction.

Thank you! Jammin sounds like it might be a must-have for me . . . (What IS it with that whole "clean and smooth" factor about these USA juices? They are about to ruin ALL other juices for me, even other USA made ones -- I swear either squirrels or Keebler elves must be involved!

Nice reviews, Morandir, as always. I'm continuing to enjoy them from my VG cave. Seems that with Stogie and Aces, I now have two good cigar flavs for my friend who's beginning the journey. I always like giving new vapers some choices to engage them, you know?

Aww Jeffree, I do so hope they bring out at least some of these USA juices in 100% VG for you soon . . .
Thanks for the warm nod, Eleanor! But I'm totally fine, stocked up for a year with my old VG favs. These new USA juices sound killer, though. A few extra bucks for domestic production and better taste seems a fair tradeoff to me. Why settle for silver when you can have gold?
Jeffree sir sorry you have to taste these vicariously through others, hopefully they'll be a vg line added to the usa flavors, or an expansion on the original wow vg line soon.
Java Junction:
Been vaping this all morning, figured it was only fitting since it's a coffee flavor. If you were looking for a nice light cup of coffee with cream and sugar, look elsewhere. This is more of an espresso type coffee with a slight vanilla undertone. The th is another slightly stronger than it's nicotine level, but not by much. Another 30mg type hit from a 24mg. Viscosity and vapor production tells me this one is in the range of 30-35% vg, which explains why java mint isn't as high in vapor production as peacemaker. Another strong addition to the USA line.

yeah thanks ! been looking for a strong coffee flavor so it'll have to go on my wish list !
Heh. That Java Junction sounds like what people used to call "Cowboy Coffee" (which fits the USA theme), or better yet, "Mississippi Mud" (too thick to drink, too thin to plow . . . )
No problem Ms. Nancy.
Lady Eleanor that's actually a good way to describe it. I'm a dark roast black coffee drinker, so needless to say it's what I look for in a coffee....
Last but not least Double Barrel Cherry:
Gave this one a few good shakes and let it steep for a bit overnight. First smell before hand reminded me of cherry nyquil, was hoping 24 hours in a dark drawer would help alleviate this. Glad to say it did, upon second smell reminded me more of a wild cherry pepsi. It starts with that flavor hitting the tongue first, though it still goes slightly cough syrupy in the middle, and on the end a hint of gunslinger type tobacco with an aces & 8's sweetness on the end. It's not perfect, but so far better than most cherry flavors I've tried (which usually taste of nothing but cough syrup imo). The odd part with this juice is the viscosity doesn't match the flavor production. Judging by the thickness of the juice would again put this in the 35% or above vg range, but vapor production wise it's closer to that of a high pg juice. Will say, never had a cherry flavor that produces a lot of vapor, so wondering if that has something to do with it. Th is very good though, another that hits like 36mg even though it's only a 24mg juice. Like Jammin will give it a few more days of steeping and return to it seeing if there's a difference. Oddly enough, even with the cough syrup middle, still like it. It's a very complex flavor, which says to me it will fall into the love or hate category for most. Just like Banana Breeze, not sure if I love it or hate it yet but can't stop vaping it. Another solid addition to the USA line up.
Just keep in mind everyone, taste is subjective. As Peacemaker has proven, no two people taste exactly the same.

Thank You Morandir hon! As always takin one for the team and it is much appreciated (((hugs))) Cannot wait to try some of these 
No problem Ms. Keelalagirl, will be doing a follow up on double barrel cherry and jammin on wednesday.
Had to get the Java Junction, it's on its way. Even tho I like my morning coffee with a creamer, I love vaping coffee flavors. Thanx for the review Morandir
As promised (though late thanks to work, all week gotten home after 8pm) have a follow up on Double barrel cherry and Jammin. Also will be including Java mint, because it's flavor has changed somewhat with steeping as well.
Jammin:
After a week of steeping certain flavors come out more than others. The vanilla has become much more prominent, and there is more of a tobacco kick. Still having scortching issues on anything above 8.35 watts though, haven't heard from anyone else having this issue so don't know if it's an isolated incident or not... Might have to order another bottle soon to find out.
Double Barrel Cherry:
Happy to say the cough syrup aspect I orginally tasted has pretty much gone away. There's only the slightest tinge of it, but barely enough to comment on. Now it goes more wild cherry pepsi like cherry, to cherry coke like cherry, to gunslinger tobacco, to the sweet after taste of aces's & 8's. It's become my second favorite of the new 5 USA juices, and has worked it's way into my top 12....
Java Mint:
This one was a pleasent surprise. As this juice has aged it's gotten more thin mint like and less coffee like. The coffee is still there on the exhale and the very end of it, but the inhale is pure thin mint now. If a loved one in the house takes this juice you're perfectly justified in stabbing them. No offense to Wow Smilin (Always been in the premium camp when it comes to Smilin) but in so many ways this flavor is what WS was trying to be. WS coffee flavor overtook the mint and made it instead of an andes or thin mint like the premium version, made it a minty coffee. That's not the case at all with Java Mint, it's like eating a thin mint and washing it down with a nice espresso...

Okay, Jammin here I come (after my next payday! 
)
Perhaps a Christmas present for myself?
And once again, thank you Morandir for being a guinea pig for us (37-legged or not!) and posting these thoughtful reviews!
