🪑 Final Verdict
Sully’s by F.D.H. delivers smooth, sweet and bitter flavors.
This was my first time trying a juice from F.D.H. and after hearing so much about the flavors they offer I didn’t know what to expect. Each juice maker has their own style and signature so it takes a few flavors to know what to expect when you order your juice.
The first flavor I tried out of the 4 I ordered was Sully’s. I was thoroughly impressed with the consistency and flavor profile. I didn’t even know what the hell a Cherry Lime Ricky was, but cherry and lime is a combo you can’t really go wrong with.
The cherry lime flavors were enough to satisfy, but the slightly bitter and tart exhale of lime peels blew me away. To get flavors like this out of a juice takes skill and craftsmanship. The aftertaste is something similar to having a drink or having a cherry lime tart candy in your mouth, with a touch of sour. If I really search for something that could make this even better is maybe a touch more sweetness, but that’s a hard to balance without making it feel too dessert like and not an all-day vape. Bitterness is a personal choice, I can see some people not enjoying that profile, but when it’s this spot on and natural tasting I thoroughly enjoyed it. With the weather heating up this hit the spot but of course can be enjoyed any time of the year.
This flavor and all flavors from F.D.H. can be found on a private Facebook group.
