what did you smoke before you started vaping?

[V00D00]

I was wondering what everyone used to smoke before they started vaping, and also if you have found any eliquid close to it. I used to smoke Pall Mall Reds....I still havent found anything close haha.

 

[Skoad]

Marlboro Menthol (full flavor)... I havent tried to find one that taste just like it because after the first week of vaping.. even the smell of cigarettes was horrible. I surely didnt want to taste them.

I did however find a good menthol from V4L (Cowboy Menthol)...

Also I now vape 24/36mg

Liggett 100's which was a downgrade from Marlboro 100's which got to be way too expensive. I actually started smoking on Benson and Hedges Menthols.

Did I find anything close to my cheesey brand? No, not really but I have liked Cigrawr from RAWR and Tobacco Praze from Mom and Pop.

 

[MiamiMom63]

Benson & Hedges Ultra Light Regulars, but they got too expensive so then I started smoking Misty Lights. And no, there is no ejuice that tastes that skanky. lol.

Most vapors find that time spent talking about smoking is counterproductive. Juices that resemble smoking (if there are any) are also a reminder of smoking. I enjoy different flavors and don't think I could have stopped if it tasted like smoke.

Some have found a reasonable facsimile to there previous smoke, but it is rare to find a perfect match. Some smell like the tobacco but not like the smoke.

I am a former menthol smoker, specifically Kool Milds (blue pack). Hard to find an exact match but some comparable liquids are PureSmokers Tonic Menthol and Vapage Blue Frost

Hi Vooodoo. I smoked newports, for about 20 years, then on to marlboro blue for the last few.

No I never found a liquid that tasted like them. I am glad at this point I have lost my fancy for anything that tastes like a cigarette. I spent countless dollars and months in search for that flavor that tasted just like a burning tube of paper and plant. I finally realized that in my search there was no way that this could(and in hindsight nor should it) taste like that and so I began to search for flavors that I would enjoy, get my nic fix and keep me from ever taking myself back to analogs. I do have a menthol flavor in my daily vape, but it is by no means a "cigarette" flavor. Think something mixed with simple menthol and peppermint...... I Do enjoy a good tobacco vape every now and then but they are more like inhaling a good nose full of fine(unlit) tobacco rather than breathing in that charred tube of paper. I hear wonderful things about Heathers Heavenly Vapes .... if you would like a finely crafted real tobacco vape it might be a great place to start. Good Luck. Happy Vaping.

Marlboro Lights (gold i guess they are called). Haven't found a juice close to it - and to be honest I really don't want to. Hated the taste - funny huh - smoked em for 25 years. Now I just loving JC Tennessee and Domestic. Wish they would sell it cheaper in larger quantities..

Misty Menthols 100's was my last brand. Smoked Virginia Slims Menthol Lights for years. I don't try to find the "right" cigarette flavor because I much rather vape other more delicious flavors. I do vape RY4, French Pipe, and a cigar flavor with menthol from Highbrow Vapor. Recently I found that the Blackberry from Vapor Zone is my all day vape right now. I'm also dabbling with diy.

I'm going to try AVE's Boba's Bounty and Monkey Juice when they reopen their online store after their move.

My taste buds have changed quite a bit since I started my vape journey and now the flavors I loved at the beginning taste awful.

Parliament Full Flavors, don't miss them at all.

Set them aside for few weeks or a month. Their flavors may change, your taste may change, or you may just want a change.

I smoked Parliament Lights, but now I vape shortcake.

And some blueberry-mango.

Peanut butter! I haven't had that in a while....

 

[Srgrounds]

Marlboro lights for 30 plus years until eight days ago.

 

[zapatengo]

Doral Menthol lights were my smoke of choice. I kicked them with V4L Cowboy Menthol. Never did find anything that reminded me of Dorals though.

 

[dreezy562]

Newportz

All day vape is bobas

Also like coffees and creamy flavors

Got some mrs t comin soon.

 

[Srgrounds]

LOL, my mom use to smoke those, I used to steal a few here and there as a younger lad, it had the plastic filter on it, talk about bad. The doral that is.

 

[MattBott]

I smoked Camel Lights. I now vaping J55 from RAWR and love it (though it doesn't taste the same, in a good way). Though I've only been vaping one and a half days and this is the only "tobacco flavor" I have tried.

 

[kabonk]

Marlboro mediums a lot of them for a lot of years I always steered clear of tobacco flavors

 

[Genova]

American Spirits. Yellow pack. No, I also didn't search for anything that resembled the flavor of burning. Much happier vaping now. My counter below says 41 point something days since I quit but it was technically at 42 days nine minutes ago.

Congratulations, Srgrounds! Glad you found the world of vaping!
