Here is the description for this flavor:

Straight from the Rocky Mountains of Montana, Big Sky Blend is our smooth tobacco blend with caramel notes. Nothing harsh here, ya'll.

I love tobacco flavors and was really excited to try this flavor out. After being blown away with the Dragon Breathe. Not sure what i was expected maybe a RY4 type with the caramel description. When I took the cap off I gave it a good sniff. I definitely smelled tobacco and caramel big time and I was already drooling. Loaded up the Boge and fired it up.

Now let me first tell when you when I like to vape I like to do what is called a french inhale. I take a deep drag then inhale, instead of exhaling right out I let it billow out of my mouth and inhale it from my nose. Dont know why I do that now because I barely ever did when I smoked analogs. So with that let me continue and you will see why I explained that.

I definatley tasted some very smooth tobacco as the main tone and it was quite good. It was followed up by a weird caramel and nutty taste. Now it wasnt a peanut, cashew or almond taste but a strange nutty taste I had once before. Im still banging my head against the wall to describe the nuttiness. IMO there was more nut flavor than caramel. Then when I french inhaled the smell was very weird and it instantly turned me off. It smelled like almost a praline type of scent but very strong. It was nothing like it tasted and it really messed with my head. It really put the juice off balance between what it smelled like after an inhale from the taste.

So now Im vaping it like normal without doing the french inhale. It tastes ok and for a tobacco flavor it is very smooth tasting. In fact if that weird praline taste was gone and more caramel was there I might have enjoyed this one a little more.

I would give this one maybe 2 out of 5 stars just because of that crazy nut taste and smell.I Did not enjoy this one but I know a lot of others do. Good try but this juice just isn't for me. Will let it sit a week and see how it steeps and give a go again before I really give up on it.

**UPDATE** - After spending a couple of days vaping this my opinion has changed a lot on this juice. I would actually give this one almost 4 out of 5 stars just because its a nice to change. Its different and a mix I would of never thought to put together. Pretty ingenious and its either you love it or hate I geuss. I went both ways lol.


*MY Disclaimer * - I am not a professional and only have been vaping for 2 months. This is just based on my opinion and it may differ with yours. One thing is I know what I like and do not like.

OK, So here's proof that Taste is truly subjective.

Big Sky Blend from Hellavapor is one that I really like!

When I opened the bottle and took a whiff, I was ready to drink it, it smelled so good!

I am NOT a tobacco flavor person, but I do like this.

You can definitely smell the tobacco - but I smelled the caramel and the "nuttiness" most.

On the inhale, I get mildly sweet tobacco with undertones of caramel.

THEN what? What is that I taste???????? The nuttiness? Is that Peanut Butter??????? Tasted like it to me. (maybe nutella?) I love LOVE LOVE peanut butter! I eat it by the spoonsful! I definitely taste peanut butter. It's so mild it's almost not there, but on the hold I get it even more.
I don't do the French inhale thing (I only do that when kissing DH )but I sure did like this Big Sky Blend from hellavapor!

Teri you got me so damn excited for this one I was actually mad that I didnt like it as much. The nuttiness is something strange and at first I thought it was peanut butter too but now you said Nutella so maybe it is Hazelnut. The smell was so ridiculously familiar to me it drove me crazy trying to remember what it was.

One thing I do like about Hellavaper is that all their flavors have a very smooth flavor to it. There is no really harshness to any of the flavor I got. They def got the levels of flavor nailed.

Did I mention that this is what I always wanted in a RY? At least, from all the descriptions of RY, it's what I always expected, but never got until now.

Awhhh... ya know me

I like the caramel in it. Many of them lack the good caramel flavor or have a weird tobacco base.

So I just wanted to post a follow up to this thread. I been vaping this juice for a couple of days in between the others. I must say that this flavor has really grown on me. That stinky smell I thought was prob the peanut butter for sure. Not sure where I was going with hazelnut but it is for sure peanut butter. It is super smooth I have to say and to anyone liking a tobacco flavor this is pretty satisfying. I know my taste bugs are all off from quitting the analogs but its slowly getting there.

Big Sky is definitely a tasty juice. I've really enjoyed all 3 flavors i got from HellaVapor. Just wish I hadn't LOST my almost full bottle of Dragon's Breath

With all the Dragons out there I get a bit confused, I'll have to give it a try!

Just like the Funky monkey. I didn't like it at first either. But it has really grown on me. Works like a great in-between juice for me. I cracked open the JCs Apple wintergreen last night. Tastes like a wintergreen lifesaver. I hope it grows on me a little more and maybe the apple flavor comes out after a few days. Biggest problem for me with hellavapor juices? I simple CANNOT stay away from the Icy Lemon Drop!

It was so hard to decide what flavors I wanted and I really wanted that. Will have to throw it on my next order. The Big Sky is a change up vape that Im really liking now. I been vaping so much sweet stuff so this is a nice change. Now I just need a good RY4 !!

Toweknee, I've found the same thing over and over. I'll try a juice and maybe not quite like it a first but the more I vape it the better it gets, kinda strange isn't it

Yea the Icy Lemon Drop is a top seller, I personally love it with a diet Coke..
I'm glad your liking the Big Sky Blend now, I think it probably had to steep a little for it to come around for you.

Anyway, thanks for the great reviews and as always vape happy!!
