I've been vaping a while and have tried maybe 40 different vendors. I diy and have maybe done 80 or 100 recipes not counting the modifications and tweakin. I've finally narrowed it down to about 30 or 40 favorites and only look for new juices once or twice a week.
I try to keep it simple so I will only have 25 or 30 different flavors on hand at any given time. There have been a few times I've almost ran out but I can always mix something up. I don't want to become a juice junkie like some folks.

I'm a BIG fan of NLV juice! :) They have nice full flavors, they work well with any device I've put them in, and somehow magically they don't clog coils as fast as other juice.
Probly the 60/40 higher PG mix makes it vaporize cleaner. I like a few of their flavors myself.

I used to buy juice based on other people raving about it, and had the same perfumey experience. Or total lack of flavor, or weird aftertaste. :nah:

I've finally found a small number of vendors that make juice I like, and only occasionally venture out to try something new.
I have the same issues with the perfumy taste. Can you list some of the ones you like? A PM to me would be fine if you do not want to do it in the public forum. I just blew 20 something dollars on flavors from INawera and FA that all have the perfumy taste to me. Flavor Concentrates is the only flavoring I have found so far that does not have the perfumy flavor, or aftertaste that makes them pretty horrible to me.
If not for the flavor concentrates flavorings I would still be smoking cigs and not vaping. Most juices are THAT bad to me.

Have you tried a peach flavor from them, or do they have one? If they have a really good one, I might be willing to pay that much, because I'm disappointed with both TFA and Inawera Peach. The TFA Juicy Peach is very perfumey, and the Inawera has a strong funky smell/taste, like peaches that are way overripe -- though it does leave a nice aftertaste.

yes they have a very nice peach with no perfumy or aftertaste. It is very good I still have about 15 mil left of it out of a 30 ml bottle. imho it does need some sweetening, but that is just me I like mine sweet. The blueberry and watermelon are my favorites so far. yeah I tried the FA peach juicy. pretty horrible to me. took a cup of coffee to rid myself of the flavor. My son does not have the same taste issues as I do with juices perhaps I can make up these flavors into juice for him?

note their flavors are pure with no sweeteners of any type.

I don't DIY (yet... I do have stuff set aside for the apocalypse), so it would just be juice vendors.

That would be greatly appreciated. I only DIY because I could not find any juice I could tolerate. Well I do like saving money too, but I started DIY as a desperate move to avoid going back to cigs. I would enjoy some more variety in my vaping.

Yeah, I went browsing all the different AFC driptips after I posted that, and came to same conclusion, that they won't help, that I really need a driptip with a very small hole. I did try a kayfun driptip, TD, and that worked pretty well, but.. I just can't stand the way those look, they remind me of baby-bottle nipples. :D I'm thinking of getting another "genie" driptip for it, a black one, because that one really does have a small opening, and they're also pretty dang tall, so that gives me some distance from the hot coil. I think that may be my best solution....

Andria, have you tried something like this one for a more restricted draw? ceramic, and I bet that picture is just laminated on and so it could be removed/painted over:

Are you talking about FA or TFA? FA doesn't have a juicy peach flavoring.

I posted Ahlusion LLC - Home because they have a 40% off sale going on, after reading the thread Sirius created, I wrote down what many folks enjoyed that I haven't tried yet, after ordering $400.00 worth for two Franklins and change, ended up with about 560 mls of FOOB juice. Great for Tootle Puffing or sub-ohming.

I don't believe I can remember an Ahlusion flavor I didn't care for. Lately been just buying Five Pawns, forgot how good Ahlusion is.

Does Capella still offer concentrated flavors drops? I really liked them a lot when I was DIY juice, used them pretty much exclusively. They also used to offer PG and VG and also mixed PG/VG to your ratio too.

Capelas I have not tried. does anyone have any feedback on their flavors as to perfumy or aftertaste?

Another flavoring that interests me is High Desert Vapes natures flavors organic flavorings. Any feedback on them?

And to stay on topic I will be tootle puffing any flavors I use :)

Yeah I'm used to that with TFA flavors, gotta use creams/vanillas/sweeteners to get anything that tastes good. But at this point I'm looking around wildly for a good peach.

Only two Capella's are really memorable to me -- their Sweet Cream, because it's exactly right -- add some to 2% milk, it tastes just like whole milk -- and it's diketone-free AFAIK -- and their Vanilla Custard v2 (diketone-free) which is just godawful, it tastes like PLASTIC. Ugh.

Andria

ETA: Dunno about that organic line at HDV, but everything I ever got from them was weak; once I started ordering extra flavor shot, it was decent juice -- their Banana Nut Bread is very good.

Thanks I have been wanting some cream flavoring maybe bavarian creme but afraid to try any so far.

The TFA DX Bavarian Cream is pretty good; doubt it wouild be good as a stand-alone, but as a component of a creamy background, it's excellent; I mix in some TFA Vanilla Swirl, their diketone-free version of custard, and between the two of them, it's actually quite custardy, without diketones. And of course I also add some of that great Capella Sweet Cream; those 3 are the creamy background of my strawberries and cream DIY.

Ahlusion makes good juice, IMHO. I don't order from them regularly, but what I have has been really good.
