I just received a large shipment of different juices from vapor bomb only to find the only juice in the bunch that taste sweet is cinnabomb and fire and ice!!!

Watermelon
Peanut butter cookie
Peanut butter chocolate
Green apple
Marshmallow
Birthday cake
Blueberry
Strawberry pie
White chocolate

While the the aroma of each flavor is pretty much spot on, they is no sweet flavor that I get from cinnabomb!

While i like cinnabomb a lot, it does leave a bit of a bite and tingly feeling to the tongue!!!
I ordered cinnabomb on the recommendation of many ecf members and I'm glad I did!

I have ordered sweetner from ms. T! Hopefully the sweetner will enhance the experience of my new juices!!

Haven't had an analog in 10 days!!!!!! Yaaaaayyyyy me!!!!
 
congrats on the analogless 10 days!!! :)


I had the same problem with vb- I got the peanut butter cup and it was awful- i have not revisited it-

I got watermelon, and it was REAALLY awful- then after a few days steeping it got a little better, but is still not 'knock yoru socks off' watermelony same with the strawberry

I did order a few more flavors last week- fruit stripes gum, and another- I am hoping that steeping will make them good and strong- I wont touch them for a little while I hope- (being a new vapor I am running out of juices I can stand pretty quickly- lots of them are AWFUL!! )

But I agree- so far I have not found just the 'in your face' flavor I was hoping for. :( and I dont like cinnamon vapes- :(

You can get a free sample of sweetener below (just pay s/h). I haven't ordered it (haven't found a juice that needs it, but if I did, would order this). Other members have and said it works. The bottle is also enough that it should last a while (according to them, since it just takes a few drops.

Luckily I love cinnamon so at least I have that to keep from going back to analogs :)

I like the flavors for the most part just wish they were sweeter! I would be in love with most of the flavors if I got that sweet hit on the tongue!!! I guess i assumed the fruity flavors would just be sweet as well!!! So I'm stuck with one flavor til I get the sweetener in the mail :-(

Thank you for the suggestion!! I'll have to look into that!! Vaping surely is a little more work and takes more planning than smoking analogs. However I love that i have more flexibility in where and when i can get my nicotine fix :)

Or buy some ejuice sweetener at Tasty Vapor (Splendex aka sucralose already diluted 10% in PG) or at Mrs T's (same but says artificial flavor too so maybe some additional sweet flavoring like maybe ethyl maltol aka cotton candy flavoring since the sweeteners sometimes work best together)

With that free sample of Splendex, if you have a small bottle of eliquid that needs sweetening then 1 drop of splendex could be too much sweet. So consider diluting it to 20% or 10% in PG.

And just a note - if you vape or eat something really sweet then try a juice that is sweet but less sweet, you will not taste the sweetness of the second juice. I usually vape at least a pair of juices, one sweet and one not sweet so I can fully appreciate the flavors of both.

I ordered sweetener from ms t a few days ago however it hasn't been shipped yet according to their website.... I'm looking forward to having a wider range of vapes that satisfy my need for a sweet flavor!!! Perhaps at some point I will get into dyi juices! I have been reading many posts about diy. It all seems like a lot of work and inconvenience!!!

I still have so much to learn about vaping!!! It's been fun discovering the many options available!!!

Keep in mind that some (but not all) liquids need to "age" for a week or two before they produce full flavor. I too have received some liquids that were painfully bland. After a week or two they were very tasty. Many threads here will say the same.

At the moment I am vaping some excellent watermelon that I nearly threw in the trash when I first received it.

Did u find the flavor become sweeter after steeping? Most of the juices I have tried from VB have plenty flavor but no sweetness!!! I have come to realize that sweetness is going to be my biggest criteria for juices in the future!!!

Wow! Just as an experiment I just dripped a few drops of white chocolate into my carto I use for fire and ice!!!! Yum!!! I'm gonna have to mix the the two in a new bottle and try that out for a while!!! The white chocolate along is not sweet but the fire and ice adds the sweetness and a kick!!! I'm thinking I'm gonna love white chocolate when I get some sweetener!!!

i got monster from vb and it was good, then i added a few drops of red bull to it and i vape that stuff all day. i also ordered some other flavors that are off just a little. i hope letting them sit will help. Their blueberry is good and sweet, also their honey smoked wood became sweeter after a few days, but my wife hates the smell.

Yes, definitely sweeter in some cases. This is not a solid rule. Your mileage may vary. Basically I am suggesting to just give the liquids some time. Some liquids are mixed the day of shipping, and some were mixed then sat in a warehouse.

But please do keep us posted on your results of adding sweetener, if you go that route. IndyVapor just started carrying LorAnn flavorings and I am tempted to try adding some to my ever growing collection of "non-favorite" liquids.

I have and like this sweetener. It is more realistic IMO.
