I can't look at this bottle without imagining Michael Jordan shooting hoops with anthropomorphic cartoons... Space Jam's kitschy 90's art took a little while to grow on me but I have grown quite fond of it.

Andromeda is the flagship (starship?) and genesis of Robo Fuel's armada of juices. It is described as a blend of fresh blueberries and pomegranate. The open bottle smells as described, with emphasis on blueberry

Flavor: elegant, refined and delicate. I am not a huge fan of the cloyingly sweet "candy cloud," flavors of ejuice---I tend to stick towards more coffees, vanillas and florals, so as always taste can vary. On the inhale, I got a blueberry taste that (to me) tasted less like candy and more like the real thing; very slightly sweet and with a delicately bitter floral note (maybe violet?) . I can see how some people would see this as perfumey, but I didn't find it quite so. It was more like a taste of the SMELL of fresh blueberries. On the exhale I got a little more sweetness and blueberry, but that was wrapped in a creamy pomegranate. Very easy to vape, possibly ADV material; not cloying, nuanced and pleasant.

Vapor: Excellent, almost vindictive. Robo Fuel are a mess of wizards. Space wizards! Or, they're liars. Because I verified the PG/VG content by emailing them and it is apparently 50/50!? Vapor production was stellar; always very saturated with surprising clouds. I have a hard time believing this is really 50/50. Quite enjoyable, and on my Nautilus+BVC, I had no issues with wicking or dry hits. Satisfying, quality vapor.

Throat hit. Present, but unremarkable. At 12mg nic, I expected just a little more but I don't really care much about throat hit and it wasn't a deal breaker for me.

A very high quality juice from Robo Fuel. It may become my ADV, as its clean flavors refresh the palate instead of weighing it down. Not the most exceptional flavor, but colorful enough to be very enjoyable. The only real drawback is probably its high PG content. Tank and clearo users should be fine, but caveat emptor to Drippers. However, I did have a friend say that 6mg nic was gnarly throat-rape, but that 3mg nic was very drippable.

I look forward to sampling more of Space Jam! (Cue up the Jock Jams)

I love love love Turkish tobacco flavor, and when I sampled this in the Frisco store I thought it could become my ADV. Promptly bought a 30ml (at a very reasonable price, might I add).

Breathed for around 4 hours, steeped for a week. Color is a pinkish orange; viscosity is very watery. The juice smell was very warm and earthy, with a figgy/raisin undertone not altogether unlike the smell of a pack of Camel Filters.

The flavor: strong, bold and ferocious. Slightly sweet, earthy and surprisingly clean on the palate. I would say it has a "lightly toasted rolling tobacco" flavor that is savory and sometimes hints at popcorn and cumin when it's hitting right. A little peppery for 12mg nic, maybe the nic quality is a bit bunk? The flavor was good but sadly tasted nothing to me like Turkish tobacco. This is definitely still a solid tobacco flavor, if you like their Broadstreet you will probably like this.

Vapor: simply godawful. The biggest drawback to this juice is that it is 70/30 PG/VG. The vapor production is therein handicapped and relegated to cute little poofs. On my Nautilus+BVC at any wattage, at any air flow all I could get were thin, sometimes dry-ish puffs of vapor. I am by no means a cloud-chucking, drip-killing glycerine jockey. But man, vapor production was just genuinely unsatisfying.

Throat-hit: nigh ungodly. At 12mg nic, I certainly didn't expect this. Somehow the flavoring mixed with the high PG and nicotine coalesced into vaping cactus needles. I like a lot of throat hit, but this was more in the realm of irritating and close to offensive. It was stronger and gnarlier than a 60/40 cinnamon menthol at 16mg nic. It must be noted, however, that when I was vaping it out of my iClear 30, the throat hit was nicely muted to a more comfortable level.

While I am not particularly PG sensitive, the great flavor was outweighed by the poor vapor production and goofy throat hit. If you use clearos, I think this juice could still be enjoyable. Its low viscosity ran straight through my Nautilus; it vaproizes very rapidly.

If I recall correctly, DFW Vapor will let you tweak the ratio when you order online. I have been diluting it a bit with a Coffee juice and it has been a bit better. I am also going to try adding some VG, as there is now room in the bottle to accomodate. I will amend my review at that time.

All things considered, an okay vape at a decent price. Definitely better than emergency juice, and thenwith a little tweaking it could probably shine.

Oh Eclipse, you magnificent bastard!

Space Jam's foray into the world of tobacco flavors, Eclipse is described as a Cavendish tobacco and vanilla bean mix. The bottle is glass, and has these kitschy 90's graphics that I didn't like at first, but grew on me quite a bit. The bottle also comes with pretty solid dropper which holds ~.5ml per drip.

The first thing you'll notice when you open your bottle is the unbelievable fragrance! I let it breathe for about an hour, and my whole room was perfumed with a creamy, amazing smell. Loaded into my Nautilus with BVC's, it has a deep amber color and is slightly viscous.

The flavor. The flavor. THE FLAVOR. On the inhale, there's a definite tobacco spiciness, a little vanilla (think the smell of vanilla extract), and a strange note that I couldn't really place--if I had to describe it, I'd say it was a vaguely floral plum note.) On the exhale, I get a peppery tobacco flavor (which could possibly just be the nicotine, 12mg) with hellacious vanilla and a little sweet-salty custard note tucked into the background.

Delicious, no chemical/plastic or otherwise off flavors; the vapor had a delicate dryness to it that wasn't cloyingly sweet or overly mouth-coating. Also noteworthy is the smell: I had quite a few people compliment the smell of my vapor, and it filled my room with a comfortable, spicy scent.

Vapor was beautiful; thick and dense clouds of saturated vapor without sacrificing flavors. At higher wattage, the clouds take on an almost wet feeling. Throat hit was solid and present, but generally unremarkable.

Now, there are a few minor drawbacks that keep it from being a perfect vape. After chilling on my juice for a day or two, there was a considerable change in the flavor. The tobacco moved into the background, the vanilla moved forward, the floral note disappeared and there was huge spike in sweetness. More vanilla, and SIGNIFICANTLY more buttery custard, and the flavor tended to linger in my mouth a lot more. The pretty smells were toned down. After confirming the PG/VG content (50/50), I have come to the conclusion that this juice is a coil-destroyer; after 4 days in a fresh coil, this juice absolutely murked my BVC. My Nautilus sometimes needed a little assistance with wicking, and occasionally got dry hits--but that is mostly the fault of my coils. On a RDA or bottom-coil, I am sure it would perform without issue.

Altogether, I am completely impressed with this blend. Remarkable flavor, great balance, and certainly differentiates itself from other vanilla/tobacco blends. I wish it had retained its original flavor through steeping, but the flavor afterward is still quite pleasant in its own right. Certainly a solid vape, and well worth the premium price.

Initially, I was drawn to this flavor because of its core concept: Firey cinnamon, cool menthol. Simple contrast that should create something nice. Tried it in the shop, loved the flavor and picked up 30ml for about $12.

Flavor is intensely spicy, as the name implies.. Think fireball whisky without the alcohol taste, but most of the burn. If you're a huge fan of cinnamon candy, you will like it indeed. However, the 'ice' component is wholly uninspired and to some extent, missing.

Artisan Vapor Company makes a serious menthol by the name Ice, and I was a little disheartened by its seeming absence--especially compared to what I tried in the store. I have since chalked it up to nic concentration (16mg) and steep time, as a week of steeping brought a smidge of mint back in.

Small side note: dry-mouthville! While it can be expected to be mouth-drying as cinnamon and menthol are great at that, I usually needed a glass of water if I was vaping for more than a surreptitious hit or two.

Vapor production was adequate for 60/40 PG/VG. Throat hit was downright gnarly.

All in all, not awful. If there was more contrast between the flavors (Read: ICE!) and I had ordered 12mg nic I think I would have enjoyed it more.

Solid juice. Surprising throat hit! Nice honeydew flavor, reminds me a lot of artificial Melon flavoring in boba tea. Not cloyingly sweet, closer to actual melon flavor than say, melon starburst candies.

If memory serves, Artisan Vapor Company utilizes a 60/40 PG/VG blend. Cloud production was average, but smoke was reasonably dense.

One small drawback was that it dried out my throat like nobody's business, and it tends to lose its flavor somewhat quickly when out of the bottle compared to some other juices i've used. If they made it in 40/60 or 30/70 PG/VG, this could be my all day vape.
