Hey guys there's only ONE vendor in Alaska that sells pure VG juice, and they are really awesome, and they custom make flavors for you too, however there's only about 100 flavors they use and they are fairly generic (like your basic fruits, tobacco's, mints etc. the most unique they have is mt. dew and green tea). So I'm getting a little bored, and was wondering what you juice connoisseur's have had good experiences with preferrably with only VG vendors as they most likely set up their juices specifically for VG flavor. Now I'm not looking for most potent flavor, because I drip most often and I've actually had many PG's that were waaay too strong, to the point they tasted like concentrate, I'm more looking for unique flavors that are pretty complex.

I've had really good experiences with quite a few vendors, but I think my favorite so far has been Virgin Vapors, they are pretty pricey but worth it all the way. They also have the interesting flavors I'm looking for like "in vino veritas" which tastes just like aqua de giorno champagne (my current all day vape), and "hummingbird fuel" which tastes like a really sweet flower (don't knock it) dominated by a raw honey taste (organicy honey if that makes sense).

*Any recommendations would be oh-so-appreciated, and I'm not a "loyalist" to any vendors by far so don't hesitate recommend anything, hell I even like that "thick" feeling while vaping VG, and that could be a basis for recommendation too, if you happen to think the VG alone from a company tastes good I'd love to hear it. I've actually made my own menthol crystals recently from menthol I grew in my own backyard so a high-quality nicotine VG would be awesome as I haven't tried any yet.

Thank you so much in advance :D.

Well I was going to recommend Virgin Vapor, but you are already there! I love In Vino Veritas too. Whenever I pick up a 1/2 ounce bottle of it down at the B&M, it doesn't last too long. :vapor:

I haven't tried them yet, but Tetra Vape is a new 100% VG site that just opened. A few people have ordered from there with some luck though. I'll link you since it is too new to be on Google. Tetra Vape – Welcome

Wow, that vendor you have sounds great! I like Velvet Cloud, some of the gals and gents on here have been raving about Free State Vapor as well. Does it have to be 100 VG? If not, I really like Ahlusion, and you can get 90VG there. I believe they require a bit of a steep but I've had plenty of flavor with 70VG. Nicoticket is also releasing some max vg flavors - but I believe there will still be a teeny bit of PG present - in case it does have to be all VG. Those are who I've had luck with :)

Heather's Heavenly Vapes has some 100%VG and PG-free excellent flavors.

AVE juice (Alien Visions, not the impostor one called Alien Vapor) has a few as well (Boba's Bounty, specifically, for me.)

I have a few dozen flavors from VV that I have bought a few times of the last couple years that I like, but my most recent order this past November, they were (it seemed) just distilled water flavors as if they left out the VG lol) Scared to order from them anymore.

My Velvet Cloud Vapors are good because they're also 100% VG but after steeping a month, all 6 different flavors are very sweet and eerily too similar to each other, that I'm baffled and probably won't order again from them.

Just to throw this out there, I also do direct dripping frequently, but still, let most juices set around a week up to a month before the flavors are happy. I can't think of any vendor juices that are perfect right out of the mail box.

Good luck:)
 
I would suggest you check out Guilty Pleasures Organics. They only make 100% VG juice with all organic ingredients. Tasty stuff to be sure.

I prefer very light flavorings so I use their juice as the flavoring in my DIY juices. I use about 1 ml of their juice in 5.5ml of my finished juice. I also add about 1 ml of my NET I make.

I combine a bit of Sweet Orange Kisses with a bit of Seductive Brew Coffee and a bit of Caramel Chocolate Tango and that, as described in my my mix above, is my ADV. Love this vape!

And to think it only took a couple years to figure this out...

Best of luck to you!

Velvet cloud is my second favorite :), man you guys are really on the same page as me. I like the "homemade" and pure vg vendors, I like Free State vapor and ahlusion from the research I did, much appreciated :D

VC for the win! Is highbrow...highbrow? As in expensive and high-quality type juice (I don't mind paying for high quality at all), that's another to checkout, now I'm getting too many ideas lol.
Highbrow is definitely high quality, but medium price point.
They have several very popular juice flavors - Cheesecake Torte and Cappuchino Diablo as well as all their fruits. Many of the extracts for the fruits are grown locally right near or on their own property. If you go with 100% VG, ask for extra flavor in the comments and use the code "HIGHBROW" (without quotation marks) in the coupon box to get 10% off.

I've heard alot about boba's bounty, fett's my favorite characted too :p. I don't know if the hype is because it's a decent "mystery" flavor and everyone wants to know what it is or what. What would you describe it as? (please try :D)

Yeah I think VV is being overrun by popularity and they are mis-mixing every now and then, my advice is to only order from the absolute line, I ordered probably 3 dozen bottles all-together with no mistakes. Yet the first cotton candy (made with ethyl/non-organic flavor) I got tasted like it had a shot of vodka in it, not too bad, but it worried me. I wouldn't let that one put you off just stick to absolute.

Ooh that does sound good, you almost lost me after oranges with coffee but with the caramel in there it sounds like you've got it down to a science. Sounds like I found a person that knows what I mean by tasty vg, I think I'm sold on Guilty Pleasure to throw my menthol crystasl in, mighty thankful brother.

Perfect description Nanny22. My favorites are caramel cake & crème brulee. There's a peach, can't remember it's name, that I see lots of people like and Grandpa Dave's Pomegranate is one using fruit from their property. Happy tasting!

I keep forgetting that I tried Highbrow several times (over a year or 2 ago) and liked theirs. I've been meaning to try the cheesecake torte and limoncello (blackberry?) and a few others, but after I started DIY I haven't gotten back to them.

Lol, describe Boba's Bounty? Ok, but, I'll mention first, that the taste and smell (which go hand-in-hand really) depends a lot on the nic strengths (I've ordered it in 12, 18, and 24 mg nic just to be sure :))

In one order, all 3 strengths, out of the mailbox, and each one, upon opening immediately and sniffing and tasting, I got different "dominant" flavors. The 12 mg immediately smells and tastes like a lovely honey graham, but the others didn't. The 2 higher nic strength had more tobacco up front. I've never extracted my own tobacco and not sure if AVE does either, but I'm thinking it's why I like Boba's. I do get a nice tobacco taste under or over? whatever else they put in there. It could be a nice honey flue cured or B & M type tobacco that they use? dunno lol It's lightly sweet but not off-putting like the VCV's became (unfortunately) after steeping.

Boba's also seems to have a whiff of a dark fruit (possibly dried black cherry, prune or raisin but just ever so tiny hint of it.) I have about 5 verions of it that I've been DIYing, and like them all, but I still buy the real thing every now and then. Crazy eh?

[I'm still vaping the VCV's because the flavors are all kind of maple and brown sugar, custardy, sweet vapes-- but can take only a few drags and have to put them away for the day so they'll last me about a year or 2 lol. Same with VV. They were sooo thin that I had to add straight VG nic base and my own DIY organic flavors to adjust them correctly lol.]

Good luck and happy vaping :)

How "100 VG" do you need to go? Just the base or 100 VG flavorings as well? As someone who is extremely allergic to PG, check out Lori's blog for her listing of VG vendors, including some weeding out of those who are completely 100 VG and those who only have some flavors in their lines that are 100 VG.
