Their flavors are hit and miss like everyone else. I do know that Hangsen uses clean ingredients. I trust their quality. :)
Early in my vaping I didn't care about any of that I now do some research and read up all I can and it still amazes me how many people will get a new tank and dump the juice straight in without even washing. Vaping is supposed to be a healthier option for us but we do need to make sure that companies stand true of their claims on their juices. I'd be very happy if a full report was required before any juice could be sold.

AFAIK many liquids used in ciga-likes / disposables are made by them. Large scale custom jobs, so to speak.
As Jimi D. said, in that league you can't afford not to use 'clean' raw materials.
Point is what you make out of it. Even with perfect ingredients one can make a spoiled dinner.
So their stuff is a mixed bag. Some good, some so-so, some aren't my thing at all.

I vaped Hangsen premix tobaccos on occasion and liked the Highway, Desert ship and No5. They are nice flavors but thats my taste. I have a couple other Hangsen flavors cream, kiwi and grapefruit they are ok but real sweet. I now DIY my Hangsen juices and there is a definite difference in the sweetness between my DIY juice and premix, I can barely vape the premix anymore from being so sweet and having my coils last longer from not gunking up as fast is a bonus. Just be sure your getting genuine Hangsen juice since there is clone Hangsen juices out there.

HS is one of the easiest and best DIY tobacco concentrate manufacturers. I practically vape HS DIY exclusively but I'm tobacco vape only nowadays. I've gotten away from all desserts/fruits over time. Everything is too sweet for my taste buds.

If anyone likes HS premix tobaccos then DIY is just a tiny learning curve with their concentrates. A simple 5-7% blend of flavor + your preferred pg/vg + nic = easy street and super cheap.

They are a great starting brand. Heck, my second bottle of juice EVER was Hangsen's Cherry Cola and I would still buy it now!

Take a look at their website and you'll have a good laugh at all the flavors they mix for e-juice... Some of the highlights are:
  • Hot Dog
  • Wasabi
  • Pepper Soda
I'd love to get ahold of some of these and make a video of my experiences with them xD

Depends on what flavor you are chasing. I don't like "ashy" so I can't recommend any of those. Not really hangsen's specialty either way. I like the ones that taste like a fresh opened pack smells. Desert Ship and Deluxe are 2 flavors I absolutely cannot live without. They are both medium bodied/slightly sweet and really smooth. Deluxe is the sweeter of the 2.

Thanks will try the desert ship I think, I am more into one that tastes like a light to medium cigarette. Not into the sweet tobacco for vaping.

Sweet is a very relative term with many of HS tobaccos. I personally can't stand sweet vapes. Probably one of the reasons I can't tolerate 95% of premix on the market. It's a subtle sweetness on the exhale. Kinda like being able to taste the "sweetness" of an unlit cigar or fresh opened pack of smokes.

One thing I do from time to time is "dirty up" the tobacco using an absolute. My favorite is TA VA from Inawera. Not weird or overpowering. Just nice and earthy with a touch of ash. I have a bottle mixed @ 4% that I just add right into the tank I'm using. Like 10 drops in a tank or something like that. Super versatile and since you can mix right into a tank, if the results are bad the worst case is you dump 2mls of juice and move on. Or just vape it cuz it's only a days worth. lol.

Bob, what strength do you mix the Hangsen Desert Ship and Deluxe flavors at? I just ordered 10 ml of each to try out.

I think the ry4 is pretty good. Not overly caramel sweet like tfa double ry4. Much closer to a real cig taste with just a hint of sweetness.
I have had RY based juices. Is nutty butterscotchy maybe a bit of cloves or somesuch but not like real tobacco.
I tried all the tobacco flavors that 4 different vapeshops had and none were like real tobacco. some even seemed to have a bit of prune flavor :shock:

I just in the last week tried some Capella medium tobacco flavoring. No good.

I am referring to their diy ry4 concentrate.
