After trying various tobacco vapes, dessert vapes, wacky combinations and enigma juices...all from various vendors...i am happy to say that the bulk of my flavor adventures are done. i think i have finally settled down on my favorite vapes that can satisfy me in different ways.

no matter what mood im in, i can pull a juice out of my aresenal to satisfy it....without having a giant pile of bottles. my goal was to find a managable sized array of juices. i like having variety, but too much variety is unmanagable.

i will never completely stop sampling juices as its a fun hobby for me. but its a good feeling to have your tried and true favorites all lined up without worrying, "is there a better juice out there for me?"

so how about you guys....do you tend to settle in right away or do you have the tendancy to think that 'the juice might be greener on the other side of the fence'?:mail:

I settled in with my first try (lucky me!). But I will not stop trying; I just don't do it quite as often. Other than my mainstay, KBV Hummingbird Nectar is the only juice out of hundreds that I have ever reordered. But I will keep looking. I did revisit BMV Hypermint after a year on the shelf, and I like it at nighttime--I am indeed evolving! Yesterday I got a bottle of BWB Orchid Frost & BWB Berry Bliss. Both are very tasty for their fruitiness, but alas, two more tobaccos I just can't do. I have yet to find a tobacco that I can vape. Actually, my all day has a tiny hint of tobacco, & I love it, but every other tobacco has just not tasted good to me.

But I love trying one or two new juices about once a month.

Funny, I thought I had settled into that place a few months ago - I was vaping nothing but AVE's Havana Gold. It just seemed to hit the spot and work well as an all-day vape. Plus, I found that some other juices made me sick (bad stomach pain with certain flavorings), so I ordered 100ml bottles of it and figured that was it for me.

Then, something happened where the vendor happened to go on vacation when I was out of it, so I had to hunt down an alternative for those situations. I stumbled across Highbrow Vapor. While I am still a fan of Havana Gold and the AVE tobacco line, I am so impressed with Highbrow right now that I am quickly finding many new favorites.

So, I think it's nice to settle into something, but it's fun when something new comes along - it's always good to have a Plan B, and new vendors may come along with great products worth trying.

I love 2 try new juices just like trying new restaurants....some are better than others and i know which ones I can always fall back and depend on....so no I haven't stopped trying but I have stopped experimenting. I know I like tobaccos, coffee, drinks, and sweets. Don't care for menthols,florals,food,or fruits much if that makes sense

OMG.... I WISH I could find that all day vape! I've tried so many,, seems like a huge assortment to me and found some good ones, but nothing so fabulous that it makes me want to stop looking. I do know I don't like menthols, mints or tobaccos. I have a chocolate liquer(?) that's quite nice and seems to be what I gravitate to when nothing else is doing it for me... ahhhhh, the search continues!

Sometimes the key to finding that all-day vape is to be stuck with it for a while. I had always vaped Havana Gold in rotation with a bunch of other juices, until at one point I ran out of everything else. It was probably after a few days into it that I realized just how reliable it was - performance is important. It never clogged up any atties, never gave me heartburn, always had a reliable throat hit, and didn't have such a strong or sweet taste that I felt the need for anything else.

That's the thing with "delicious" flavors. Anything that has a very strong flavor, or one that is similar to a food, will eventually get tiring. If there were strawberry flavored-cigarettes, they probably wouldn't be as popular as Marlboro or American Spirits. It's just too much of a specific flavor to deal with throughout the entire day. A good all-day vape is something that is appealing, but sits in the background. I think that's why a lot of people gravitate to flavors like Eco-Pure and BWB Malty - they have very mild flavor, but one that's kind of hard to put your finger on, and their best trait is their vapor and performance.

Well ya if your stuck with it lol anything is all day vape compared to nothing!

LOL! But, of course, that's what you sometimes need! Having too many flavors around, I think, for me at least, leads to "box of chocolates sampler syndrome", where you always wonder if there's a better one in the box somewhere, and never really get to savor, appreciate, and enjoy any single one in particular...

Jp absolutely we get so spoiled! I was letting my juices dwindle down and some I fell in love with (maybe if we just give them all enough time?....) although am trying to use up about 100mls of dekang juices and it's killing me but it's giving my new orders time to steep and I don't want to jump right in....I have about 20 new ones! :D

Correction, I do want to jump right in but I know ill be sorry lol

hey whats up fellow Rhody vaporer. does Jam Entertainment happen to be about jambands?

i like your menthol crystal addition. im not a menthol guy but my girls a menthol girl so i think she might like it.

FTR the juices ive settled in on are Bounty Hunter, Line Rider, Renegade (NLV), BWB 555E and Halo Prime15. i have lots of others and i still like experimenting but those i find i cannot be without. well actually 555E, BH, and Prime. the other two are great but not integral.

i settled in, 5 volts/24 mg marlboro with a menthol crystal added... i like to try other juices here and there, but for an all day everyday for me it has to taste like a cig..im still not past that part
