Locally: Native Soul from All About Vapor. It tasted like the floor of a cheap Texas steakhouse, dirty and peanutty. :<

Online: Turkish tobacco and Longhorn by Halo. They're just so perfumey, like something you'd find at the bottom of a grandmother's thrift shop purse. Longhorn is like a sample card of Opium that grandma got from Dillards in the 90s, and it's stuck in a secret compartment along with her lucky penny -- Turkish tobacco, with its odd, metallic taste.

Yeahh I hate when tobacco flavors are perfumey, it's horrible. I'm slowly beginning to figure out that tobacco flavored e-liquids aren't for me lol :unsure:

I have not tried Turkish tobacco but I have had longhorn

And I can say even though I really thought it was nasty It was not purfumey
one thing is halo def uses alcohol in their process if you don't take caps off overnight you will get a chemical perfumey taste

^Probably the best "worst" review I've read anywhere. And accurate, too!

It was a blueberry flavor, I honestly can't remember from which vendor, must have blocked it out ...

Tried it in my first drip atty, gagged and almost puked. Threw away the juice bottle and cleaned the atty, set it on a windowsill to dry. The next morning my kitchen reeked of this rancid fruit smell. Tossed the atty in the dumpster, and noticed that even the feral cats who feed there stayed away until the dumpster was emptied. Somewhere in a landfill, a seagull is choking ... :laugh:

For me I'd have to say...Bacon! I think it's just not a flavor I like to vape. Also the smell is so strong. I got the concentrate to try DIY and the box I had it in still smells like the stuff!

I've seen that e-juice around but like you, I don't think it's something I'd want to vape lol not really a fan of the savory flavors XD

Thanks for the tip. I did actually air them out, though. It's not an alcohol taste that I get so much as a floral, powdery undernote that reminds me a bit of heliotrope, amber, and ylang ylang, three very common perfume ingredients. In fact, there's a flavorant molecule that has a heliotrope profile (although I can't remember which one it is), and I'd be a little shocked if they didn't use it in their base.

Haha, thank you. I realize it was probably a little mean, but, you know, I do really love a couple of other Halo blends.

I can't call this a bad flavor (because it's great quality) but I absolutely hated, loathed, despised The Duke from Indigo. It was like hot death to me. After I steeped it, it improved and became like molten death. With extra death.

I can only describe it as being a very bold, pure tobacco with no other component to dilute the flavor. It's bang-on for strong tobacco, really well crafted and... I hate it so much. I would rather vape an armpit.

From this I construed that I'm not a bold tobacco vaper, and I keep it on the shelf as a warning.

To date, wife and I have ordered from 7 online vendors and 2 locals. Of these, online worst has been eJuiceMonkey's. We got a large sampler pack from them and of the 9 bottles (1 was free) - nothing has panned out and has just a horrid taste. Cheap price and obviously cheap liquids/flavorings. Each has sat with cap off for days and then steeped for weeks. Tried one again the other day and just not for us. Locally was a B&M store which didn't tell us their mix - ended up being like thick sludge (was told after purchase it was 50/50). Tried it....tasted NOTHING like their sample buffet they have. Yes...sampler buffet, they have T2's loaded with their flavor and provide an eGo and a "condom" for the tester tubes. Found a few that were okay until we got home...these have sat for almost 2 months!

For the others: local (Tranquil Vapors) and online Diamond, HDV, Moon Mountain, Good Life, eCigCharleston we've found some bad but most were good. We've got one more online order in process...and I'm hopeful that it'll pan out.
