I would rather less packaging and saving on the cost of juice! The plastic box thing is difficult to recycle so will only end up in landfill, sadly. For me it's the contents that matter, and I do like gins addiction!

Is it the same price in Vape Lab as it is online? If memory serves it's either the same price or slightly cheaper, but not by much. There is certainly a saving to be made by not paying postage and treating myself to a bottle of GA every couple of months when I make it up to London doesn't break the bank. Sent from my HTC One_M8 using proboards Cool, cheers for that, so I'd like to add 'feeling slightly ripped off' to my first impressions. Hope the juice isn't as underwhelming.

I'm the same, but since quite a few people have mentioned how well packaged the product is I felt it needed saying that imo the packaging isn't anything special at all. Obviously it seems they must be talking about the tinned version which you'd think would be standard. Surely it makes sense to post an item in a tin for added protection than in some flimsy cheap looking plastic box.

Or maybe just stick it in a padded envelope like everyone else? But it is lush liquid, still waiting for someone to come up with the recipe......don't suppose Halcyon Haze would consider publishing it I'd make my own packaging then

Re-coiled and wicked my Heron this morning with Rico cotton yarn at 1.4 ohms
Filled it with Halcyon Haze and have vaped about half a tank of it so far.
First impressions I'm not convinced its absinthe. Definitely aniseed in there with blackcurrant and either a small amount of menthol or koolada.
There is a herbal note which is similar to what I get from afro dizziac and I get a slight after taste of apples.
Not getting any gin at all.
Its alright but so far not living up to the hype. Maybe a day or two vaping it will change my mind.

I've had the good fortune to find a bottle of the Gins Addiction hiding in the depths of my rucksack. It was a freebie from ukric at the Prestleigh meet. Quite fortuitous as I'm on a bit of a jaunt atm and only have about 1/4 litre of juice with me Anyhow I digress, a quick forum search turned up this old thread. I'm loving it! It's so refreshing a real palate cleanser, not overly aniseedy, a hint of lime and possibly even water melon. Ideal chaser for a jug or two of pimms! all
