Am I asking too much for flavors to be rich?

Guys!! It is simple! When I started vaping approximately 6 months ago, I vaped store bought flavors, and had the same issue. I slowly began starting to make my own liquids. I will never look back. Its cheaper, funn-er, and you can make the flavors to your taste.

What is causing the lack of flavor? It can be two things; One, the flavors you are buying have low %'s in the mix, causing that blandish flavor. A lot of e-cigarette stores in my town water down their flavors with water, or use less flavor concentrates to make more money. Or two, they simply haven't sat long enough for the flavor to marinade and bring out it's true potential.

I started blending my own liquid about 2 or 3 months ago, and have never been happier. The trick is to make your liquid blend, then add some flavor until it tastes like it needs a liiiittle bit more flavor. Once you reach that point of where your flavors are a little less sweet/flavorful than you want, you let them sit in a dark cool area (such as a cabinet in the garage or a closet) for at least 2 weeks. The longer they sit, the better they get. It's in a way like a steak! Once it's marinaded longer, the final product will be that for satisfying. Gove it a try!

I've been vaping for a couple months and absolutely cannot believe I stopped smoking analogs!

If it wasn't for HotVapes and their mint crystal based Menthol, I would've never stopped. Having said that, I stopped at every vape shop in my area (DFW) and tried all of the flavors I cared for. None had any real flavors. Most of the places liquids tasted like chemicals with only a small hint of flavor.......

I guess I'm used to the mint crystal based Menthol liquid, the crystal liquid is so powerful and tasted like a real cig.

I'm looking to start vaping other flavors and I'm so tired of wasting money on liquid that just taste like crap...... When I need a part or cartos, drip tip etc I try to buy from big vendors online I add a flavor of liquid and it arrives to be another dissapointment.

Am I really asking too much when I want my liquid/juice to be rich and powerful in the flavor dept?


Anybody know a good place for awesome sauce?

I used to smoke menthol analogs like crazy ( newport//kools) So i understand your need for a stronger menthol flavor. Personally I recommend Heathers Heavenly Vapes. I have multiple bottle of their Angel's Kiss which during the ordering process allow you to add either none - heavy menthol flavoring which I found very satisfying. Happy Vapin buddy and from my understanding from lurking on this forum finding juices that hit the spot is kinda like a treasure hunt. Best of luck to yah and keep on vapin :laugh:

Hmmm forgot to also say that quite a few of their flavors have the option to add menthol too and from my understanding the PG/VG ratios have a alot to do with flavors (General consensus is higher the VG the more flavor especially sweet flavors, Higher the PG the heavier the throat hit.) Also depending on the setup that you are using you might benefit from a VV mod with allow you even more custom tailoring to the juice of choice. Many juices that I have tried taste better at varying voltages. Ok Im done Ill shut up now and go sit in the corner :blush:

If you've tried liquid from the 2 dozen or so vape shops in DFW and haven't found anything you like ordering it online will more than likely be a frustrating experiance.

Ive tried most of the highly recommended online vendors and their flavors and have never made a second order from any of them.
Funny thing about taste, even the juices Ive had that I didn't like from the local DFW places were better than anything Ive bought online IMO.

For strong flavors try Vapor Works, they have what I consider to be some rich flavors and he'll add as much flavoring as you can stand to vape.
