Well I too was a huge Spirit fan (over a decade from the blues for over half that time to meds to yellows) & because I saw this I just placed an order as well. I'm also psyched he's a local distributer for me!!!- Huge. I wonder whether he makes his own or what, but I'll ask & let y'all know when I do. Thanks for the Spirit heads up... I'm pretty psyched!
Oh & with a VG option too! Seems like I couldn't find that not too long ago, I'm glad to see its a trend thats taking.

Well I got it today & I was hardly impressed at all. I also got 555 & also horrible IMHO. I don't know for sure but if I had to bet my nards I'd say the flavors are from China. The Spirit tasted like a god awful dekang cappuccino my friend had & couldn't bear. Don't get me wrong analogues taste like ... anyway but I think I'd take that over whatever flavor this knock of was supposed to be. I'm sticking with USA juice & the PITA is that many US companies sell the Dekang stuff, so ya gotta really make sure it's actually US juice & not just an American company selling Chinese crap. Worst $30 I've ever spent. Gotta stop wasting $ looking for my new flavorite & just stick to what I know is the bomb. :(

American Spirit from Jeff @ Wordup e-cigs!!! I used to smoke American Spirit unfiltered cigs before I vaped and loved their tobacco flavor. This is some tasty juice. Very similar to the real thing.

I don't know what you're talking about, man, I LOVE the American Spirit juice from wordup. It's by far the best I've had. BY FAR.

I'm really sorry. I can't imagine what crap flavors you've vaped before to finally land on that as your favorite.... I'm sorry I just got queasy & almost gagged & yarfed thinking about that disgusting flavor for a only just a second typing this. I have a massive beast of a dog that I give a few squirts of an Omega 3 &/or 5 to give his coat a shine. The most common commercial source of omega 3 is fish oil, & that's the absolute closest comparison I can come up with for that fowl supposed American Spirit juice. There is no question in my mind its a Dekang flavor only for good US juice prices. He obviously realized a lot of folk in this country smoked spirits & decided to name a crap supposed tobacco flavor after it so people would buy it. I spoke with him personally about it a few months ago & he asked what brand I smoked when I told him he said he knew a lot a people that did & that he was trying to get a Spirit juice going.
The 555 I got is equally as disgusting. Luckily for me they didn't have sample sizes so I blew $30 on garbage instead a fraction of that amount. There are a ton of vapers out there that actually prefer Dekang juices & NYCjeff is obviously one of them. I am no longer with exception to LiquidXpress since they get their flavors mixed privately in the far east.

You gotta admit, when I smoked I could easily tell the difference between a Spirit & a Camel, Marb, or P-Funk for example. I LOVED Spirits. This supposed SPirit juice is nonsense. It hardly tastes like a spirit at all & was most disappointing to me.

Cha-Chang ! Went the mailbox today and i unpacked 1 bottle Am Spirit 24mg and a 555 24mg from wordupecig. Did a clean EVO atty dip & fresh charged batt on the AS first and BAMMM what a throat hit and WHOOOSH a huge cloud appeared. Man, whatta rush i got. I ordered the 70 PG / 30 VG mix indeed. Flavor was clean / fresh with a nice medium tobacco taste, not real strong but nice enough. NYCityJeff was spot on with the best by far, i took his recommendation. Definitely my new favorite. I'm with ya buddy.
Then it was 555's turn to baste. Separate clean atty and BAMMM again. I'm makin' smoke signals with this stuff, call out the Calvary, Damn ! No joke. Great flavor, and i mean yummers. TH was excellent also. LOVE this stuff ! Nutty and sweetly balanced. GREAT STUFF ! I was a AmSpirit and a Nat Sherman smoker for 10yrs and a Marl/Camel guy before that. I need that strong hit, bold flavor and tons of smoke. I'm happy as a pig in sheet. Took 3 and a half days to get from order date on sunday. No fancy packaging or bottles, just enough to get the job done right. I like it. 10 out of 10.:thumbs:

I do NOT believe wordup sells Dekang juice. These are Chinese bottles, yes, I've recognised them from other sites too, but not Dekang's. I've had other Chinese juice that's superior to Dekang (SLB for example). I've never tried wordup's liquid, but I'm considering getting some. Dekang's bottles are entirely recognisable. These are not them. And they're not re-bottled either, you can tell. They are probably from another China manufacturer, but not Dekang.

You're right about the unmistakable bottles with Dekang & I honestly don't know because I'm pretty sure they mix & re-bottle it (DIYFlavorShack uses the same bottles & anyone can get any bottle- US plastics, for example. But they don't have the same Dekang bottles or generic images). I do know he was waiting for an international order before he could restock the sample sizes & the flavor reminded me of something from China. Don't get me wrong the juice did create a lot of vapor & being that I got 100% VG I should hope so, after all I could put a drop of pure VG into an atty & produce massive clouds because as we all know vapor production & sweetness are the two primary characteristics of vaping VG. My great issue is with the flavor. I gotta try em at 3.7V to see if it gets any better for me. I guess being a 6V-head I prefer HV juice brewed in the states, but taste is subjective & as I've found changes with time... so who knows I might just dig it someday. My consistent favorite over months has been nHaler's HV 555 though & its unlike 555 from the far East & Loranns IMO. & since y'all really thought it tasted like a Spirit then I had to have gotten a funky batch or something. I'm not risking ordering another one & will just stick to what I actually like, I'm all done with gambling & losing $

I think this is my 3rd post in the forum. I'm wet behind the ears here and won't receive my first e-cig until tomorrow. I'm deep into learning mode, neck deep.

This thread is fascinating to me. Such diametrically opposed impressions of the same juice. I mean, very strong opinions, and polar opposites! Very strange. It tempts me to buy some.

Just placed order, so I can't review yet, but got order mixed up and placed direction in "contact us". Very shortly received phone call from Wordup!! A most pleasant guy and was just suprised at the level of service. I really hope I like the liquid because he has definitely got my business ..


Yeah, his customer service is beyond reproach as far as I'm concerned. I love the stuff.

Well, obviously, I highly recommend it, and at least one other poster in this thread agrees with my assessment.

Tried it again & never mentioned how much I love how the greasy-... fish oil taste takes forever to get out of my atomizer. I'm never touching it again. I'm gunna see if my buddy has a similar taste preference to the two of ya that actually think this tastes... good & try to make some of my wasted money back, if he despises it as much as I then its going to whoever wants it here.
Also, a couple of months ago I got a creepy immediate call back from him too & it wasn't the first e-cig store that did that shortly after I posted an e-mailed question, you can call that tremendous service if ya want. When I placed my order for this preciously revered garbage the main page mentioned '6ml sample sizes available' & when I tried purchasing it the 6ml option was nowhere to be found, thereby forcing me to buy the next size up. I explained this all in a message that went along with my order & I know he got it because along with my order was his standard hand written letter (he does with every order) mentioning how he hoped I was happy with my order despite not having the size I wanted. To compare, Dawn at DIYFlavorShack not only hand writes a note on every order, she includes bonus items with many of them & when I asked her questions about different flavors she had she sent me numerous 6ml samples for free & in a separate package (this should by no means be an expected standard just her awesome way of hooking my up hard after several emails back 'n forth). Of the dozen sites I bought juice from she provided THE BEST customer service, & in my opinion if I'm sending en email, I prefer an email answer unless I specifically mention not minding a call. Not to be overly critical, but that's my experience with a high bar set by a juice company that nearly every customer she has can totally agree with me on (check out her link in this forum & try & find one bad customer review). That said, a call back & hand written letter could be pretty cool, but hardly compares with Dawn- who actually makes her own juice.
Okay, I'm sorry just WAY disappointed with the juice flavor & price considering its rebottled cheap crap from the orient. I swear I'll stop bashing it now...:rolleyes:

I apologize if i started an uproar here. I can only say what my experience is and all of us have different taste buds and favorite flavors and expectations of what it should be and what is not. I have bought alot of juice i did not like or care for, then moved on to find something else, but others gave it praise on their reviews, go figure. I found the wordupecig juice review on this forum, took the chance, and it agrees with MY pallete, maybe some others it does not. I just read a review on the awesome taste of Tasty Vapors tobacco juice today, and i will also buy some of that. May like it, may not. We all are rolling the dice out there with these juices and flavors, always on the quest for our perfect vaping experience, i know that i am. I know that i am NOT smoking stinkie cigs anymore and that is my goal. Thanks for understanding.
