LATEST SUCCESS STORIES
From Randy
Thanks for you passion and your site. I started out with Blu and Logic
which just didn’t satisfy my craving for nicotine. I recently purchased a Blue Star
system, as a beginner, and immediately got the throat hit, nic hit (at 24 mg …which
might be a bit much because I got dizzy) and satisfying smoke.Not that you endorsed this system, but aside from the expense of upgrading, my wife
and daughter will thank you for your website because I no longer stink of cigs…or
as my daughter put it “stink like poopy.”I will continue to review your site and explore other battery and tank options as my
budget allows.BTW, Blue Star Full Flavor 24mg 0.41 L OZ bottles have a distinct licorice or anise
flavor. Not a bad thing in my opinion.I’m not at the point where I’m going to buy a Cyborg or anything close to it because
I just can’t justify the expense. Maybe a month from now when I get away from my
pack a day habit, I can pick up something that makes my vaping experience a bit more
customizable.Brilliant website. Great insight and put in a humorous way. Invite me to your next
new years party lol.
From Ernie
In the 2 months I’ve been using vaping equipment I have used your advice
and and cut through all the crap and am proud to report I am tobacco free. I have
made my purchases based on my needs and some of your reviews. You do an excellent,
informed review. I have built my taifun and lite plus the way you’re instructions
showed me. Thanks for making my journey of a smoke free life after 45 years of
ciggs. Keep up the good work while I await my new zna dna30. Peace in the New Year.

From Phil (not me 🙂 )
Hi Phil –
I was looking through your success stories and testimonials and to no surprise at
all, they go on for pages and pages and pages! I’d like to get in line too and offer
you a big thanks for what you do here on Taste Your Juice. I’ve been a heavy smoker
for 30+ years and I’m finally beginning to see the end of this life sucking habit
and in no small part due to you. Your excellent and informative videos and articles
and most of all, your positive outlook and disposition toward vaping has encouraged
me to stick with it. I’m doing it for LIFE and I get the impression you are too,
which is a tremendous validation. Today I’m about 90% smoke free and making daily
progress. As many times as I’ve tried earnestly to quit smoking, I just never seem
to be able to stay quit for more then short periods. Now that you’ve shown me the
real potential in vaping, I’m confident that smoking will be behind me forever and
soon!Through your website and especially your excellent video reviews, I’ve made it
through most of the vapor learning curve and the future is looking bright indeed. I
especially enjoy the “hobby” aspect of Vaping in that it’s not only helped ease the
many difficulties associated with quitting tobacco, but also replaced it with
something technical, gear (toy) related and fun, for lack of a better way to say it.
A great deal of this new understanding is down to you and your videos and the
genuine and approachable way you address the whole vaping experience and everything
that goes with it.Okay, if unchecked, I can go on in an email like you can’t believe, so let me just
say, Thanks Phil! My life is changing for the better and I owe you a debt of
gratitude for the impact you’ve had on me. Please keep it up, people are paying
attention!Phil

From Lloyd
Just wanted to say a thank you and hi all the way from the UK! I’ve been
smoking since I was 16 so about 8 years and I’ve been toying with vaping for a while
now but always had trouble with cartos gurgling and not being able to get consistent
vapour out of them which resulted in me always going back to smoking. Just before
Christmas I found my chest was getting worse and worse and looked more into vaping
and that’s when I came across this site. Just wanna say that your reviews have been
a massive help to me (especially the one on the aspire bdc… Damn it’s good!!!) And
since I’ve found the site I haven’t had a cigarette since :). Not only helpful
reviews but enjoyable too. So just wanna say a massive thank you for helping me kick
the habit and keep on doing what your doing
From Vlad
Hello Mr Busardo
I just want to start off by thanking you for doing the videos and reviews. I have
been using ecigs on and off for 3 years, however I always went back to regular cigs.
Once I started watching your videos and reviews I got inspired again. I have been
cigarette free for over two months. So thank you again. I have recently ordered
Russian 91% and it is my first attempt at rebuildables.
From Ross
ey Phil!
I imagine you probably get a ton of ‘fan mail’ at this point, so I’ll (try to) be
brief.Just wanted to thank you for all you’ve done and continue to do for the vaping
community. As a broke college student, my vaping budget is always thin, so it is
imperative that I buy wisely. Your reviews are of the utmost value to me. Case in
point? After reading the rave reviews for Halo’s midnight apple on ECF and other
places, I picked up the 30 mL bottle. And try as I might, I couldn’t get excited
about the flavor. Only then did I come across your review ‘7 from Halo’, and it was
spot on… I mean really accurate. Your reviews are thorough, fair, and
entertaining. Hell, I even watch some of them for fun and to broaden my
understanding even if I am not really considering a given juice or piece of
hardware. So that’s it, man. Keep up the good work, it most certainly goes
appreciated by those that encounter it.Best wishes for 2014 and happy vaping!

From Richard
Hi Phil, I am a vaper from England and have been vaping for about a year
ever since my dad died of cancer in January 2013, it was a lung condition that
finally took him and it woke me up finally to the damage i had been doing to my body
by smoking since i was 8 years old i am now 47 so 38 years of approx 30 cigs a day
!! I had tried a number of times to stop but i personally found it impossible, I
started vaping 11 months ago and have been on the “journey” which has finally
brought me to the Kayfun Lite+ which for the first time has brought me to a place
were i feel that i am a satisfied vapor.
Which brings me to the point of this email and that is YOU, who has been my constant
companion through the last 12 months and even though you dont know me it is you i
have took this journey with and i just wanted to thank you for being you, there are
people in life who are special just by being themselves and you are one of those
people, Thankyou Phil
From Daniel
Phil, my name is Daniel . I am a 28 year old police officer in the town of
Smithfield,Virginia. I first wanted to say thank you for all the reviews. It was
your reviews that led me to finding the right devices to make the switch. I smoked
for 15 years and tried everything to stop. I quit once back in 2012 but only made it
two weeks when my blu died. Anyways, I have been vaping for over a month now..no
analogs since! I have a k101 with a rsst genisis with a 18650. Works great…as you
already know lol.
From Chris
Just wanted to thank you. I just started vaping on Saturday to quit
smoking and I love it. Your site has provided a wealth of information. If it wasn’t
for you I wouldn’t know what the hell I was doing. I will continue to visit your
site and watch all your reviews.
From Derek
I want to throw a huge thank you your way. I have been a smoker my entire adult
life. I have tried the gum, the patches and 2 medicines to no avail because
frankly, I love the habit. I love the physical act of smoking, but hate what it
does to my body. I could hear myself wheezing when I laughed and especially when I
laid down to sleep. I have avoided returning to my career in law enforcement
because I couldn’t run around the block without having a massive coughing fit.
About 6 months ago, I tried the blu cigs, and saw potential in the idea, but
couldn’t quite put down the analogs because I never knew if the batteries were going
to last and honestly, the flavor sucked. I started researching a little further and
stumbled onto a few YouTube channels, including yours, that were REALLY helpful. I
appreciated the fact that guys like you and grimmgreen and riptrippers so readily
recognized each other and lead me to more places with great information. So, I
grabbed an e-go battery and a little top coil clearomizer and gave it a go. Today,
I am smoke free for the first time since I was a teen. No more wheezing, I can run
around the block without collapsing, and I am getting ready to take another shot at
getting back to a career that I loved. And I get to keep the physical “habit” that
has been the stumbling block in my past. And for the record, down to 12mg of nic
from 18, and honestly looking at cutting to 8mg now that I have the kayfun (that bad
boy is frickin kickin!).Thank you for what you do. I owe being smoke free to you. Thank you, thank you, a
thousand times, thank you!!!Gratefully,
Derek
