Hangsen is low grade stuff. There are better ones available, and many well priced.
Hangsen retail RY4 is currently in the group graded
B on
The Big RY4 Report Card. That grade was given based on a small sample bottle of Hangsen RY4 I got from Liberty-Flights two years ago, along with Hangsen RY1, RY2, and RY3. That bottle of RY4 didn't knock me out. However, I recently purchased a 50ml bottle of Hangsen RY4 from VaporBreak, and it's
terrific. Either my palate has changed or Hangsen has altered their RY4 recipe. Probably both.
In the next update of
The Big RY4 Report Card, Hangsen retail RY4 will be moved into the
A- group.
The only reason it doesn't get an
A grade from me is that---like Jimi D.---I too prefer the Hangsen Essence DIY concentrate. Mixed at 20/80 pg/vg, it makes one of the smoothest, most delicious Classic RY4s I've ever tasted, and I've vaped a few RY4s---about 130 so far.
I don't know what the OP got, but "harsh" and "spicy" are not qualities of the Hangsen RY4 I'm vaping. Not even close.
