Great site and a wealth of information. I've been vaping for a year or so after giving up smokeless tobacco and pipe tobacco. My meager stash of mods/ devices include 2 Kanger Subtank minis, 2 aerotanks, Itaste v2, VLS Ragnarok, eleaf mini, and on its way is a Kanger Subox. I use the Ragnarok mech with a subtank/RBA at home and beat up the little eleaf mini with an Aerotank at work for stealth. Still working to find juices that I get along with which has been a struggle as I'm fairly picky.

Thanks for the links and welcome. I'm a bit Leary of ordering juices that I can't sample, I've driven the local vape shops crazy you literally trying everything they offer only to by another bottle of in-house blend strawberry or blueberry. Coming from the world of pipe tobacco to vaping was a huge transition. The "tobacco" flavored offerings I've sampled honestly left me underwhelmed. I've sampled a large amount of Johnson Creek, and all the local shops' "tobacco" flavored juice.

Yeah I understand your trepidation, I've ordered plenty of juices only to realize I'm not a fan, and never will be a fan, of the specific flavor.

I always recommend MtBakerVapor for newer vapers, as they offer REALLY low prices on their juice, making it easy to order a "sample order" of 5+ 15mL juices for a nice low price (under 30$). ITCVapes is also a good budget e-juice place.

In terms of tobacco-esque vapes, I quite like the Coumarin Pipe e-juice from MBV, and Dirty Dutchman by ITC Vapes. Coumarin has a cavendish/sweet/"Captain Black" kind of pipe tobacco taste, and the Dirty Dutchman has a more straight-up cigar tobacco flavor going to it (along with some sweetness from the caramel). Both are very nice flavors.

Howdy @SUPER K, welcome to ECF!

Maybe I can help point ya in the direction of some new e-juices. What kinda flavor profiles are you interested in? (ie: Tobacco, fruit, chocolate, dessert, custard, etc.)

I like tobacco but haven't found a suitable ejuice replacement, so I've made due with fruit flavors. I can't stand cream, honey, maple, or other flavors that many love.

I'll check out Mt.Baker and see what they offer. Thanks for the quick replies and help!

No problemo.

Also check out the Silver/Gold RY4's from ITC Vapes. It's a very straight-up tobacco flavor, not much sweetness at all. Reminds me of Camel Turkish Silvers/Golds/Royals (kind of dry and woody). Great cigarette.

Man, the websites are almost overwhelming with all the bright colors and vague descriptions. This may be a dumb question, but how much do simple flavors really vary between brands? How different is Mt. Bakers' blueberry from my local shops?

Eh, probably not the biggest difference in the world. In all likelihood they're using very similar flavorings to get to their blueberry. I doubt it'd be the exact same, but it'll likely be similar.

Hi Super K from a fellow newbie here.Have been vaping for some time now and found out in the end after spending loads on crappy eliquids that mixing my own is far better both on my pockets and being able to tailor the juices to my liking.It didn`t take very long to find a few mixes that i just love to vape.Have started making epipes now and surprisingly find myself using them quite a lot.
