If you are talking about tobacco flavor, I really like their USA blend and the 555. I have not tried their pre-mix,only the DIY flavor,that I mix with their 50/50 18mg. The 555 flavoring smells awful,but is a really nice vape. The USA blend, to me ,gives me the same taste,as a cig and I have tried a lot of Tabac flavors from other vendors,when I was getting off Cigs.
 
Aglet, I can't compare it to the famed Hawk Sauce since I've yet to try it. So from an objective standpoint, Faux Hawk is... mmm, a 7-8/10 for me. Hawk Sauce is "A Slightly Sour Berry, hint of menthol and Fruit Mix with Inspirations Drawn from the Pacific North West" per the description and Faux Hawk is "Everything you love about the original Hawk Sauce, but with a twist of raspberry."

I taste the sour raspberry flavor and it's pretty good, but I hardly taste any menthol and the other fruity flavors are kind of overshadowed by the sour raspberry. I like lighter, slightly sweeter fruit flavors so it's not my favorite although it's still good, but I imagine with a bit more steeping time the taste may improve. Bottom line - it's good, but it's not accurate to the description... at least not yet. Hopefully it will, though.

Thanks for the mini review there, I appreciate it. I should get mine this week, so I'll post up a review in the e-liquid review section as there is only one short 3 line review so far.

We'll see what happens with the hawk sauce, it was one of the first juices I found when I started vaping and it's one I always go back to - but it needs a long steep. I have some that has changed from the light yellow to like a deep caramel color and it's so much better at that point.

When they have it in stock, I recommend getting some. Thanks again.

I'm still steeping my juice. I'm going to wait another week or so before I will give me honest opinion. I ordered almost the whole tobacco line. I maybe missed one. I wasn't overimpressed by I want a non biased opinion. I just ordered Johnson's Creek tobacco juices to test.

So far I've only tasted Halo's Juice and LOVE most of the tobaccos. I'm trying fruit's and other flavors little by little. They are odd to me though. I like chocolates...

I'll be back :vapor:
 
Keep in mind that taste is subjective...I wasn't impressed with their RY4 (very, very dark and very strong) but I've been tempted to try their menthol tobacco.

If you're interested in flavors other than tobacco their Strawberry Ice, Blue Ice, Root Beer, and Absinthe are my staples. I go heavy on the extra shots personally, but that's just my preference.

How many 'extra shots'/15ml do you go for?

The only tobacco flavor from MBV I've tried is the Ankara Tobacco and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone honestly lol, it's pretty perfumey/pungent. I'm interested to see if any of they're other tobacco flavors are worth trying.

You need to steep those juices, they are made fresh to order and Tobacco Juices can take 2 - 4 weeks of steep time to come into their own. This also depends on the amount of PG/VG ratio you get, more VG requires a longer steep time and also mutes flavors and adds a touch of sweetness to juices.

How frustrating is steeping... I want to test everything...!

because MBV are so inexpensive, it is a great place to try flavors that you normally wouldn't. my favorite is Dulce De Leche, Root Beer is second so far. i'm just trying moo juice after a 1 week steep, it ain't bad! whipped cream is kinda yummy too.

didn't like most of the tobacco juices, which is what i mostly bought. i just loaded up USA Blend after letting it steep/sit for about 8 weeks, it isn't that bad. i've got it in a kanger evod, i may try it a mini davide later in the week. kinda tastes like a "lite" cig.

but i do highly recommend that you try some flavors that mightn't otherwise thought to. i'm thinking about quite a few desert flavors, strawberry shortcake and cheesecake. if they are even close to the dulce de leche, i'll be a happy camper. (but i'll probably get some strawberry flavore from the DIY section in case i need to kick'em up a notch! :smokie: )
