blu Electronic Cigarettes to Feature Johnson Creek Original Smoke Juice
This is an exciting day here in Johnson Creek. We’re proud to announce our new partnership with the good folks over at blu electronic cigarettes. Later this Spring, all of blu’s starter kits and cartridges will be shipped with custom flavors made by us right here in Johnson Creek.
Read the formal press announcement here.
Many of you have heard of blu, but some may have not. Either way, you may be asking with all the e-cig options out there, why them? While it is true that there are many brands of e-cigarettes available today, we believe blu offers a premium product with great features – and does so at a better price than many lesser competitors.
Johnson Creek Original Smoke Juice was started in order to create the best tasting vapor available and to do it with premium ingredients. Throw in expertise, passion and friendly service to get the core of what we’re all about. As we began exploring the possibilities with the team at blu, we realized that while some e-cigarette companies are content to let their hardware run on bad-tasting import liquid, devils or angels, the folks at blu share our same values. We know they’re excited to offer their customers greatly improved flavor, vapor and quality by using Johnson Creek Original Smoke Juice. We’re just as thrilled that our customers who rely on the first American-made, quality e-liquid brand will have the convenience that blu offers.
We know some of our most loyal customers get worried when we start changing things and we love hearing your thoughts on how we’re doing. But don’t worry, you’ll still be able to order all the great Original Smoke Juice and Red Oak flavors you’ve grown to love right here at johnsoncreeksmokejuice.com.
We’ll all be working hard in the coming weeks to get everything perfect for this unprecedented joint venture. In the mean time, you can learn about the blu electronic cigarette on their website.
Otherwise, head over to our shop to pick up your favorite JC products while you wait for the next revolution in e-smoking.
As always, thank you for your time, your business, and your support.

Blu Cig Review and Comparison
Okay, so i got my Blu yesterday. My initial reaction to it: whoa!
the pack for it is pretty sweet, i also like the USB charger for it. its all very compact and the packing is very trendy and cool looking. but the big thing is how this little devil performs.
major taste! the menthol flavor taste SO friggin much like a camel crush (my old brand) the ease of draw is amazing. i know people are complaining about how sensitive it is (its very sensitive) but it makes the draw super awesome, you barely inhale and it hits you.
the throat hit is very nice, better than my pilot when it was new (ive had it since march and its working, just not very well, time for new hardware) but to really let it HIT you gotta take a somewhat longer drag, no biggie.
vapor production is awesome. its the same amount of vapor that an analog would produce in smoke.
The atomizer is huge, lol. very pointy, cos it breaks thru the seal in the carts. the band between the battery and the atomizer has four holes, looks like the pilot in that sense, but it also has 2 holes on the atomizer where it screws into the batt. i dont know if thats making the difference or what, but i noticed it.
Its pretty small, the smallest ive tried. its smaller than the mini fogger or the pilot with the short battery.
The pack is genius! I have a tendency of misplacing my e cig (never for very long ) and now its just like keeping up with a pack of ciggys. alot easier. everything fits perfectly and you can still store a fully charged battery in the charging slot, just dont screw it in (the case still closes)
Now, comparing it to the m401/402, the 901, and the janty mini fogger... i like the blu better. As far as throat hit, ease of draw, and taste. especially taste. It definitely feels the most like an analog. the pilot laks in the flavor department, and the 901 lacks in the throat hit, the mini fogger is some where in between. but the Blu, in my humble opinion, blows them outta the water.
The battery life is pretty average (1-2 hours heavy vaping), the cart life is pretty good too, i was vaping away last night and its still the same cart this morning and going strong. im kinda antsy to try the other flavor carts i got. i got the java jolt and the vivid vanilla along with the magnificent menthol (its pretty damn magnificent)
My only real complaint is that its sound/wind sensitive. i was hoping it wouldn't be. my pilot is, and i cant go to concerts with it. i was hoping to go out to loud places with this thing, but i dont think thats gonna be any different.
All in all i would def. recommend this to anyone. a newbie or a seasoned vaper.
Its got a year warranty, 30 day money back, and its only 59 bucks. if your thinking about the blu, go ahead and go for it, theyre probably still backed up so youll be in for a wait at the moment... but its worth it.
Later days,
Ro
