“I stopped smoking Jan 11th of 2019. Haven't had an analog cigarette since, knock on wood. I started out vaping a Bo Vape pen. I eventually had to switch to something else because paying $4 for a little 2ml pod was beginning to get OLD. I only liked two flavors of the Bo pods: Gold Tobacco and Icy Mint. The rest of the flavors, imo, were terrible, tasting like burnt cough-syrup. But, of the two flavors I liked, the Gold Tobacco was best. Over the intervening time of giving up the Bo vape-pens and switching to another device, an Orion Lost Vape DNA Go, I've tried to find a tobacco flavor close to the taste and feel of the Gold Tobacco. I tried Mr. Salt-E's 'Tobacco', the I ❤ Salts 'Tobacco' flavors, Witch Doctor by Hometown Hero, a salt-nic called Sapphire that a local vape-shop mixes, another called The Prince by Salty Frog... and a whole lot of others. Each one has either been too harsh or just plain awful tasting.
So I received my shipment of Tribeca by Halo today. Loaded some into a fresh Orion pod (.5 ohm), let it sit about 15 minutes to prime the coil in the pod... and finally took a hit. I must say that it tastes a hundred percent better than the other 'Tobacco' flavors I've tried thus far. And I'll likely stick with it, at least until I can find something a bit closer to the taste of the Bo Vape Gold Tobacco pods. The Tribeca is good, though, I'm not saying it isn't. It's the closest thing, so far, that I've found to Gold Tobacco. It is pretty smooth, like others have said. And it has this vanilla/caramel taste you really get more of on the exhale, the inhale giving you more of the tobacco feel. But it has a pretty lingering aftertaste, like a lot of these tobacco flavors do, a taste like "diet" something or other. And as for the vanilla/caramel taste, I understand the difficulty e-juice manufacturers have in trying to "fit" the natural sweetness of the VG into a tobacco flavor. Even the Gold Tobacco I liked so much by Bo Vape has this hint of vanilla/caramel and nuts. It's probably the best option if you have to mask the sweetness of the VG to incorporate those particular flavors. But they can be a bit "thick". The Gold Tobacco by Bo, though, isn't so thick. Even the juice is thinner, physically. The Tribeca is pretty syrupy. Pretty thick... like Mr. Salt-E's 'Tobacco'. But the taste and throat-hit of Tribeca is miles above the Mr. Salt-E stuff. It is quality e-juice, that's for sure. But the aftertaste... uggh.
Like I said, I'll likely reorder Tribeca. But the hunt, sadly, continues for a better tobacco flavor.”
“I can't believe Halo wants a high price for there e-juice.
There is generic brands that taste way better than this. I gave it a chance but
this is a so, so. The taste is very weak and there is also a rubber perfume after taste.
The nicotine hit is there but thats all its good for.
I wasted more money here on a bottle of e-liquid that I will try for mixing.
Would not vape it alone.
Blaaaa !
I will most likely go back to my vendor that sells great juice at a cheaper price.”
“This is the best tobacco flavor I have found to date. The flavor is very strong and has a very good hit. It is hard to describe the flavor but it is very similar to a tobacco cigarette, including the cigarette aftertaste. I prefer adding a small amount of halo sub zero to it for a menthol cigarette flavor.”
