I have to say that I've heard the statement ''the closest thing to a cigarette'' used many times before only to find that it isn't. HOWEVER, the RY6 by Hangsen IS in my opinion the closest thing to a cigarette I've vaped - and by a country mile. It's one of my regular top 5 vapes when I'm feeling in the mood for a fag (and I've been vaping for a good couple of years) but generally the reason it's not my top vape is because that's exactly what I want to get away from and generally prefer a more creamy, sweat vape. For me this is best used when first going onto the vape scene as it's perfect for that. That said, if you're after something that tastes like a traditional cigarette then there's not much out there I've tried in a long while that's as good. Just my opinion and not that of POTV blah, blah, blah. All the best, Jason.
