REVIEW: Vapor Station; Tampa, Texas, Phoenix

Tampa: If you read my posts in another VS review thread you'll know I tried the Tampa and was disappointed in the vapor production. VERY minimal upon exhale. I filled a second brand new cartomizer to see if the low vapor production was a result of a faulty carto and got the exact same results. Kind of bummed about vapor production because it's a great straightforward analog tobacco juice. Of all 3 the throat hit on this is the harshest and if I was really stressed and craving a tobacco this would be the first I reach for. The flavor is more like an analog cig than the others, a little "smokier" but still no ashtray taste. Straight forward cigarette tobacco flavor with great throat. Again, little vapor, at least in the bottle I received (I'll contact VS to see if this may be just a batch I received).

Texas: so far the best vape I've ever tried. Great tobacco flavor, good vapor, just the right amount of sweetness, no ashtray taste but satisfying as a "smoke" ...not overpowering. I can see this being my go to!

Phoenix: more complex flavor than Texas. A little sweeter, more vanilla I would say. Also has a hidden spice. When I'm in the mood for more "flavor" I can certainly see myself picking this up.

Overall I'm very impressed with the quality of the VS juices. I've tried V4L and FSUSA and so far VS is my favorite. They don't have any unusual "sweetness" or "perfume" taste that the others seem to have. I am steeping the FSUSA juices to see if those change for the better, but I would be content if Texas from VS was the only juice available from now on.

NOTE: When I first started vaping, my favorite carto was "Cowboy" flavor by a company named V2. After going a couple weeks without an analog and trying these other juices, I can say the V2 tasted "chemically" and "smokey" compared to these others. I also think the "Kamel" by V4L is excessively "smokey" (I would say on the verge of tasting like the way an ashtray smells).

Hope this review sheds some light on my take on vaping tobacco flavors.

Dude, you skipped their two best tobacco vapes: Frisco and Tennessee. Taste is subjective yadda yadda-seriously try 'em! I'm pretty sure Phoenix, Tampa, and Texas share a base (I taste something similar in these three) and Frisco and Tennessee share a different base; point is they're very different and very rich, Frisco being nuttier and Tennessee being richer.

I ordered the sampler, (10) 5mL bottles for $25, and got two bottle each of the following flavors:

Phoenix
Frisco
Tampa
Texas
VS4

The only one I didn't care much for was the VS4. With the others I was having a hard time deciding which one I liked best, but the Phoenix bottle emptied faster than the others.

Yesterday I ordered Phoenix, Frisco and Tampa, all 30mL bottles. This is great stuff!

I just revisited VS4. I don't know why it didn't catch me the first time I tried it, but now I can't put it down. It's almost too rich to be a tobacco vape, and I don't mean that in a bad way at all, there's just nothing burly or spicy or twangy or dry about it. I'd almost say it satisfies my sweet tooth with how vanilla-cream-caramely it is.

By the way I don't have much experience with 555's, but the one I have had was Backwood Brew's, and I'd say its about as similar to Tennessee and Frisco as brocoli is to chocolate.

I have tried the Cherry Almound its like a real cherry just not a big fruit vaper and it still has that VS flav to it just not sure what that is.....
I have the cocoa and cafe coming this is my second sampler pack from them I just tripled up on the VS4.....


Probably picking up a Vapor Station sampler pack soon. Doesn't VS use a tobacco base in all of their "flavored" juices?

Can anyone chime in on their flavors like apple, and banana, etc...?

Never been this satisfied with a tobacco vape ordered from VS. I'm definitely going to go back for more. I gotta say, I've been vaping these non stop. Phoenix is very complex beyond words & even I can't even sum it up for a review. The Tennessee is more of a calm vanilla/carmella texture that has a nice roasted leaves texture. More like a flued cured almost.

Not sure why I couldn't edit my original post but...

Eric at Vapor Station and his customer service is top notch. He did replace the bottle of Tampa which was not producing vapor (may have been damaged due to Florida heat who knows). TAMPA ROCKS! Great vapor like the other juices. Flavor wise, it's a real simple, straight up cigarette tobacco. Absolutely loving it! Wish I found this before I spent $ on so many other juices and striking out. Now I can probably completely give up those occasional analogs.
