| Product | Picture | Description | Rating |
|---|---|---|---|
| Halo Freedom Juice |  |
The tobacco e-liquid to try before you try anything else. Very convincing tobacco flavor — reminds me of a Camel — with peppery background notes. | 5.000 |
| Halo Turkish Tobacco |  |
Could be even better than Freedom Juice. Great analog tobacco taste, dry and a little smoky. | 5.000 |
| Intellicig ECOpure Rich |  |
Tastes as clean as an e-liquid gets. The flavor is mild, and some other e-liquids bear a stronger resemblance to real tobacco. However, the clean taste and pure nicotine punch make it difficult to put this one down. | 5.000 |
| eLiquid Planet Essence Tobacco |  |
The Camel Turkish Royal to Freedom Juice’s Camel Light. Warm, mellow and slightly sweet flavors make Essence Tobacco feel like an indulgence. | 5.000 |
| Intellicig RiZe Flue Cured |  |
Superb Virginia tobacco flavor with vapor production and throat hit to match. An excellent Marlboro or Winston replacement. | 5.000 |
| Ares Black Clove |  |
Uses real eugenol to replicate the feeling of a real clove cigarette. Although the clove flavor is artificial, it feels absolutely authentic. Must taste to believe. | 4.750 |
| DKS Marshall |  |
The first e-liquid I’ve ever tried with the aroma of burning leaves. Zero-nicotine but actually has a little throat hit. Very nice. | 4.333 |
| Safe Cig Turkish Cartomizer |  |
A rich Turkish tobacco flavor with hints of coffee and dark chocolate. Becomes more complex as you continue using it. | 4.250 |
| Mister-E-Liquid Grey Matter |  |
An almost perfect representation of pipe tobacco, marred slightly by the addition of sweet flavor notes that don’t quite work such as French toast, cinnamon and butter. | 4.250 |
| Halo Smooth 8 |  |
Tastes like tobacco flavored with citrus peel. Also has a background ginger flavor note. Reminds me of a limited-edition Camel flavor I used to enjoy. | 4.125 |
| Volcano Tobacco |  |
A neutral e-liquid with flavor notes of coffee, roasted nuts and honey. Muted sweetness makes it a good choice for all-day use. | 4.125 |
| Halo Midnight Apple |  |
Tobacco flavor with a green apple top note. Reminiscent of a green Jolly Rancher, but not too sweet. Very enjoyable. | 4.000 |
| Halo HX3 |  |
An e-liquid that takes no prisoners. Tobacco, liquid smoke flavors and intense throat hit are counterbalanced by peppermint and a bit of menthol. | 4.000 |
| Halo Torque 56 Cartomizer |  |
Notes of pipe tobacco, dark chocolate, espresso and vanilla. Strong, refined taste and high vapor production. Vaping Torque 56 with a pre-filled cartomizer is a completely different experience than dripping. | 4.000 |
| Intellicig RiZe Kamel |  |
Notes of domestic tobacco, Turkish tobacco and bergamot. Very complex; seems to provide a slightly different flavor profile with each puff. | 4.000 |
| Prime Vaping Peach Tobacco |  |
A bit sweet, but a very nice interpretation of a peach pipe tobacco. | 4.000 |
| Intellicig RiZe Rustica |  |
A dry, ashy, very cigarette-like tobacco blend. To truly replace analog cigarettes, it could use a bit more flavor and throat hit. | 4.000 |
| Ares Black Cherry Tobacco |  |
While it doesn’t taste like the cherry pipe tobacco it is supposed to resemble, this e-liquid is rich and highly pleasurable. Similar to a chocolate-covered cherry. | 3.750 |
| Smoke Revolution USA Premium Cuban Cigar |  |
An odd e-liquid with flavor notes including coffee, chocolate, vanilla and bread or yeast. Not cigar-like, but enjoyable. | 3.625 |
| Ares Classic Tobacco |  |
Uses a combination of spice flavors to mimic the taste of real tobacco. Flavor notes include anise, clove and cinnamon. | 3.625 |
| Halo Prime 15 |  |
Buy Prime 15 and use it quickly. For the first few days, this is a sublime tobacco e-liquid. Becomes overly sweet and takes on caramel flavor notes when it matures. | 3.500 |
| Smoke Revolution USA Classic Tobacco |  |
Spicy tobacco e-liquid with black pepper flavor note. Slight sweetness on the inhale. Reminiscent of Marlboro. | 3.500 |
| Intellicig RiZe Reds Blend |  |
Tastes very similar to Intellicig USA’s Flue-Cured Tobacco, but the flavor is far less pronounced. I prefer Flue-Cured. | 3.500 |
| Halo Torque 56 |  |
Extreme tobacco flavor with plenty of throat hit and vapor production. I prefer Freedom Juice but this is a strong contender among tobacco e-liquids. | 3.500 |
| Johnson Creek Tennessee Cured |  |
An interesting tobacco e-liquid with a bit of smoky depth. Burnt caramel, vanilla and mesquite flavors. Lacking in vapor production. | 3.375 |
| Mister-E-Liquid Kamel Hump |  |
Not an especially realistic tobacco experience. Sweet citrus notes are at the forefront while a bit of peppery spice lingers on the tongue after the exhale. Interesting, but nothing spectacular. | 3.250 |
| Safe Cig Traditional Cartomizer |  |
If you’ve ever tried a typical Chinese tobacco-flavored e-liquid, you’ve probably had a flavor like this one. Good for new e-cig users to use as a baseline for comparing other flavors. Not recommended for experienced vapers. | 3.125 |
| Halo Captain Jack |  |
Has an aroma so similar to English pipe tobacco that you’ll think you’re smelling the real thing. Doesn’t taste quite as convincing, though. Flavor notes include caramel, vanilla and chocolate. | 3.000 |
| Halo Tribeca |  |
Inspired by the RY4 flavor and improves on it in every respect. Warm and complex with flavors of caramel, butterscotch and coffee. Doesn’t taste like tobacco. | 3.000 |
| Prime Vaping Nostalgia |  |
Malted chocolate with a base flavor made from real tobacco. Unfortunately the chocolate and tobacco flavors compete with each other and neither really “speaks” in this e-liquid. | 2.875 |
| Johnson Creek Domestic |  |
Johnson Creek’s usual tobacco base flavor with a hint of salt. Fairly boring. | 2.625 |
| eLiquid Planet Essence USA |  |
A dry and spicy interpretation of the classic USA tobacco flavor with a bit too much “barnyard” taste. | 2.625 |
| Mister-E-Liquid English Meadow |  |
Very sweet and fruity for a tobacco e-liquid. No real tobacco notes to speak of. | 2.625 |
| Virgin Vapor Organic Tobacco |  |
A strong ashtray taste mars the experience of using this e-liquid on its own. Might have potential as a mixer with something sweeter. | 2.500 |
| Highbrow Vapor Highbrowbacco RY4 |  |
Caramel and butter flavor notes overpower what I think might be a pretty good tobacco base. Strong “Chinese tobacco” flavor profile. | 2.500 |
| Smoke Revolution USA Tobacco Blend |  |
Tastes a bit too much like the “barnyard aroma” of an unlit cigar. | 2.500 |
| eLiquid Planet RY4 |  |
RY4 is a classic tobacco e-liquid from the early days of electronic cigarettes that I have never found particularly enjoyable. Flavor notes include caramel, honey and nutmeg. | 2.250 |
| Johnson Creek J. C. Original |  |
Flavor notes include nuts and honey. Neutral, slightly sweet and fairly boring taste overall. | 2.250 |
| Volcano Tobacco Pure |  |
Uses real tobacco as a flavoring agent, but tastes primarily like butterscotch and caramel. | 2.000 |
| Halo Bella Valente |  |
Cigar-flavored e-liquid that mimics the “barnyard” aroma of an unlit cigar too well. A bit unpleasant. | 2.000 |
| Intellicig RiZe French Pipe |  |
Has a bit of a pipe tobacco scent, but doesn’t taste like pipe tobacco at all. Without the name “French Pipe,” I wouldn’t know what it’s supposed to taste like. | 1.750 |
