| With 1 to 2% of the final mix (10 to 20mg/ml) being Nicotine and 98 to 99% being things like Propylene Glycol and Vegetable Glycerin, except for a few odd
'who knows what' chemicals we add for flavor, I think that a traceable source path for the PG and VG is the most important.
DIY mixing has become really popular for mixing your own flavor and strength, I do it so I know where my PG and VG came from (at least I hope so).
But, to each his own

| Electosmoke.com has Halo that is made in the US and will soon have up by next week the Elec Premium juice that is very good, just tried the RY4 and Peach Tobacco and love them! If interested in the Elec, sure you could send a PM to get some before it goes up. Elec also has a 20% off purchase with VTRON01. Lecig also has US juice. I haven't tried any of those but hear they are good. He also has coupon codes but I will need to find the one for this month. Not sure about anyone else who sells US made. | |

| What scares me most? Is the people preparing the ingredients, the cleanliness of the facilities, and the expertise and knowledge of those overseeing the operation.
Maybe just a tongue slip, or a typo, or just a bad quote of some hearsay knowledge, but a mistake on a 'high school chemistry' level about what is involved in mixing and preparing diluted e-juice is more of a concern for me than whether it came from India, China, or the U.S.
I've read 'Experts, Qualified in the field of Mixing Chemicals' say things like "mixed to exactly this Specific Gravity" when they probably meant 'Viscosity'.
Those two parameters are not related to each other when it comes to most liquids. Specific Gravity, except for a few liguids, changes very little over a range of temperatures, while Viscosity can change drastically. Mixing to either of these doesn't prove anything about purity and mixing ratios. Some thick liquids float on top of water. Some thin liquids sink.
(Galileo knew this)
Does your mixologist know what he is doing? That's what matters to me.

| Want a FREE ROCKET TIP?
Now is the time to order about 6 months of e-juice (or ingredients to make your own).
Fall or Spring. A few days in a hot USPS truck, Cargo hold, or sitting on a UPS dock during the Summer, or freezing in Winter could 'Taint' your order. Mild environmental temperatures will be easier on your order. I might be in the market for some more next fall

| Esmoke, "Assembled and tested in the USA"... from Chinese components?
"E-liquid made and filled in the USA"... again... from Chinese components?
"1 cartridge is equivelant to approximately 30 cigarettes."... say what?
I'm not judging the company one way or the other, just pointing out a few things that make me go Hmmm. | |

The USA juice is 100% USA.
The folks are esmoke are good people and actually do have the largest factory here in the US that I know of | |

| I have had Vapebig.com juices before great juice. Aaron runs it and lives in Florida met him at Vapestock was a real good guy. Sherryl over at Vipvaporcig is based out of California another really great company. She has like over 125 different flavors with caffeine addive along with others to choose from. $5 flat rate shipping. Hope this helps RY4
Vapebig.com Coupon Code " Welcome" amount of discount varies buy purchase price. Over $40=free shipping.
VipVaporCig.com does not offer coupon codes at this time there prices are pretty low to start with.

| Two that I know to be tasty and personally use daily and exclusively that are made in the USA are E-Liquid Emporium and Pink Spot Vapors. You can Customize everything on the E-Liquid Emporium page and the Pink Spot has a proprietary PG/VG Mixture but it is amazing stuff.
Hope this helps;

| I agree with Devon on the Pink Spot juice I did not care for their Peanut Butter Cup flavor though. Perfect Buns is great.
