Hello my fellow Hoosiers! :)
After vaping for a year and trying lots and lots of juices and vendors, I have built up a pretty good arsenal of juices and vendors. However I still sometimes feel like maybe something is missing and I just don't feel satisfied (easy now, try to stay out of the gutter this is ecf, lol) so I am going to try to list the vendors I have tried, and I would like for u to give me some direction as to who to try next. Ok here goes

Hoosier vapes, vapalicious, Vapealicious, freedom smoke USA, mad vapes, highbrow, Altcig, gourmet vapor, kickbass, DIY flavor shak, prime vaping, vaperite, clouds of vapor, neon vapor, vapors choice, mount Olympus, vaping zone, blue mist, vapure, Dekang, mountain oak vapors, and proli a few more that I can't remember or find right now.

I have found a few treasures, and I have at least one vendor that I like almost every single flavor I have had from them, and most of u know that is Altcig. (u guys remember the Rasberry shortbread cookie from the Kokomo meet, right?) but as for the rest of them it's been hit and miss.

I need a few more hits!! Lol :p
pie am a failure so far at mixing and DIY for myself, unless it merely involves adding some sweetener or tart and sore. I don't vape tobacco, or methol, or coffee so I stay in the dessert, bakery, fruit, and tea type vapes. And after a year of vaping I have still not found a good real apple!! But that's another thread.

So....what do u think guys, who should get some of my vaping allowance??
thanks for helping me, and if u need juices from any of the above listed, I would most likely be willing to trade, I vape 18 mg.

Hmm, well I'm a fruity/tobacco vaper so not too well versed in the deserty stuff. But, I also really judge a juice by it's "mix qualities." Is it 50/50, is there too much or too little flavor, stuff like that beyond just the actual taste.

That said I really like Vapor......com lately. Not overly flavored, 50/50 with interesting flavors. Maybe they have something that suits your palate.

I also dont see Pink Spot in your list. I haven't personally tried them but I know they are a respected vendor that many people rave about, and I believe have deserty stuff.

Me? I'm still just a fan of the one-dimensional DIY 10mls at a time nice and fresh. :2cool:

Thanks for the suggestions guy and keep them coming. I have tried highbrow X, and I do like some of their stuff. I have never tried anything from vapor bicth, vape dudes, freedom or ecig express. I am in Peru, about 20 min north of Kokomo, ingerri, I see u are in the nw, whereabouts?


Hoosier, are u saying I am a juice junky? Lol, I am shocked that I have tried more than u have tho, are u serious bout that? I am guessing that must be because u went to DIY before u tried a bunch of crap juice. Hmmmm, maybe I should just pay for mixing lessons instead?? ;)

I have so many bottles of juice around that I'm always finding treasures that I forgot about. Found a cherry experiment this morning in a candle holder and I'm vaping it today. My best cherry yet, but it's still not right. The next challange is to find where the notes on that experiment are. Sometimes they roll out from under my car seat and hit my foot when they are ready to be vaped. You a juice junky? heh...

Well, I've been at it long enough that I'm allowed to wear an onion on my belt and yell at kids to get off my lawn.

Tasty Vapor was fairly new to the game when I started vaping and I found the first juice that "worked" for me there. Ms. T's started off shortly there after and my oldest son found a juice from her that worked for him.

I started mixing my own because I was disgusted by the majority of tobacco flavored juice out there and I wanted one to taste like a Cuban Cigar that me and a friend use to enjoy when we were hanging out. It took me 5 months working at it nearly every single day of each week before I figured it out and during the process, I found plenty of other flavors I could make, and make well.

Frankly, it is such a rare thing for me to find another's juice that is even close to what I make myself and I have yet to find one better... Well..Ms. T's blueberry muffin is one of the rare ones that a vendor does better than myself...so finding one better is really, really, rare for me. So rare that I start to think it is impossible, but I know that is impossible.

I do try other juices at meetups and I give kudos to those I think do a good job, but I still tend to like my stuff better.

There was some joker at the last meetup that was trying real hard to convince me that people would pay me good money to sit in a classroom and have me teach them how to mix. I'm sure Steve really believed that, but I'm not of the nice teacher mentality. (Just ask my sons, they learned well what I taught them, but it takes quite awhile for the manner, in which I teach the best, to be forgiven. I'm more drill-sargent than teacher.)

Yes, you have tried many more vendors that I ever did. I've been mixing my own for 2 years or so and many of those vendors did not even exist back then.

Ops I guess I should have said, I won't buy from Mrst, between the high prices, the long wait time, and the "everyone is stealing from me" mentality, I chose to give my money to other vendors. I do hear good things about her juices tho, but if I want something that is similar, I would buy it from Dawn at DIY flavor shack, she has super fast shipping, always gives goodies, and is mostly sane, lol :)

Drill Sargent aye Hoosier? Hmmm, I tend to get my dealings hurt, so maybe I will pass there, but I do read your blogs, maybe u should write a book? :) Or start your own site? Or corner or whatever, heck maybe even here in our lil neck of the woods? That is if u would want to, maybe I should ask first. I know there are several members on ecf who have some great skills, we are very lucky to have Hoosier as one of them.

I have also seen some good reviews on Alice in Vapeland, anyone tried them? Today I am vaping some tasty pineapple milkshake from Altcig, man it's good. Gotta love anything with ice cream :wub:

I have had a hard time finding juice I like well enough to vape everyday too. I have pretty much vaped BWBs espresso for the past 2 years.
I recently tried some from nitelitevapor that I fell in love with. Its called Gold-its suppose to be a tobacco flavor but to me it tastes like graham crakers with caramel. I also like their Bounty Hunter and Vanilla straight. Price is great-30ml for 10$. 130ml jug for $40. Only problem is he only takes orders about once a month and sells out of the Gold and Bhunter in a matter of minutes AND it takes 3-4 weeks sometimes to get your order. But, they are very upfront about it on his site. Its worth the time investment to me. If you come to the Greenfield meet, give me a hollar and I will make sure and bring some for you to try.

I haven't received my order yet, but I love the system at ecblend.com - make your own mix. I'm hoping it's like DIY, but with an expert helping you get it closer to right. The reviews there are very positive. You might like their soda fountain or banana split creators, and the sample prices are beyond reasonable. I'm also very fond of thevaporgirl.com 's chocolate pecan fudge.

O yes the vapor girl, doesn't she have a sweet potatoe pie vape? And the plume room, I have heard of them too.

U know what I really wish?? I wish there was a juice site like amazon, or amazon like, where u could get different juices from different vendors in one order. That would be awesome!! Then u could try several different vendors but receive them all at the same time. I am sure that will happen at some point in the future, but for now I guess I will just have to pay shipping from all of them :(

Um, I'd have no idea... (I haven't purchased a fraction of that collection.)

Hopefully those experienced with purchasing dessert/bakery juice from vendors will chime in.

Can't understand why all the postings are reply with quote so chose short one!! I have been a steady fan of Classic Grape from S.I. but when I ordered the KGO vv from Hoosier ordered some juices. Loved the French Vanilla Coffee (good strong flavour) and Big Red Gum (almost sweet, almost perfumey) but thought Strawberry Champagne a lot tasteless so let it seep for a couple of weeks. Lovely flavour now.

All u Juice conniseurs, are u telling me they get better!!! The road stretches endlessly before me!!:)
Cheers from Tassie and enjoy your vaping!!

That would be a great idea especially for overseas but, dear me, how would I choose!!!!!

I here by bestow upon JudeaB the honorary title of Hoosier.

She now knows that South Bend isn't south, French Lick isn't what non-Hoosiers think it is, and also knows what is made in Batesville and is proud of it. Her knowledge of Hurryin' Hoosiers, Boilermakers, and Fighting Irish is now only second to Indy Car racing.

She now has to live with the fact that the Hoosier's official song is "On The Banks Of The Wabash, Far Away", but only knows the words to "Back Home Again In Indiana" and always tries to sing it in Jim Nabor's voice.

Welcome to the club JudeaB!
