anyone know a great 100% VG coffee

I haven't had any luck, but I'm still looking. I'm going to try a couple more Virgin Vapor coffee flavors soon (I really didn't care for the Kona Coffee Milkshake), and maybe HHV. Velvet Cloud has one or two flavors with coffee, but the coffee is sort of a background flavor (like Nightshift, I think).
 
I'm subscribing to this list, also want a dark roast starbucks type coffee. I'm about to finish 60ml of mocha java from Heather's - it was really pretty good, not bold but rather smooth without sweet. I didn't realize they had a regular Java - I'm going to try that one and let you all know.

I am going to place order from mom and pops for some of their desert type vapes (caramel and 5 layer in particular). Suggestions for which coffees should I get while I am there? I'll post reviews later after I try them.

oh, and great conversation everyone, so nice to find people with similar passion!

The 'Java Smooth' is an amaretto bomb. The Mocha Java Smooth is much, much better. Too chocolatey for my taste, but still better than the regular.

OMG look at all the input! So clearly you see theres as much variation as there is tastes in actual coffee flavors
and cigarette brands...you're going to have to let us hear your feedback.
I consider myself a coffee snob, living in Kona hawaii, grinding fresh beans daily.
I cant stomache many of the flavors I see here..unless I just add a dab to another Coffee with cream base.
Ive personally collected more varieties of Coffee related flavors than any other eliquid!
That said..I mostly also mix my own with a Fav 2 or 3 varieties.
If you really dislike some, consider going to the eCF PIF for swaps.
All the best
 
I've tried a few:

Copper Creek - Coffee: my favorite, a little sweet, a little creamy but not too much
Virgin Vapor - Organic Dark Roast Coffee: its good but dark, and lacking sweetness. fun to try but not sure if I will be re-ordering.
Rocket Fuel - Cuppa Jolt: good but reminds me more of Cocoa COPYRIGHTDMCA than coffee

I'd recommend Copper Creek's to anyone looking for a good all-around coffee but be warned, it does a number on your coils. I ordered 40/60 but will probably re-order at 60/40 to see if it helps any.

What is your favorite Kona Coffee Farm? Do you like Makahiki Farms? :)

Tucson, it's a dry heat
This is sort of last minute, but for those of you wanting to try Flavorz by Joe's "Cup o' Joe" can get it at Smoke Evolution | Vaporizers, Clearomizers, eLiquid and more! for 20% off until midnight PST tonight. Use the coupon code "BLACKFRIDAY" to get 15 ml. for $7.99. Considering that my local shop sells Flavorz for $12 a bottle, that's a steal. Hope somebody can use this in time!

Need. Review. Soon!!

I'm still piecing together the ECBlends review. There were 8 total juices & needed some significant steeping time, but I've been taking a lot of notes as I keep revisiting them. I also have the HHV revisit coming up. Unfortunately I blew my budget & then some this month, some juices but a lot of hardware too. I'll probably place the Copper Creek order in about a week or so. Thanks for the interest! :)

Edit: I've also got an order on the way from High Desert Vapes with a coffee flavor in there.

I've never had a problem with a burnt taste, but I've only been to a Starbucks 2 or 3 times. I can see why some people like their coffee, but I'm just not a fan. I put my finger on it the last time I was there & they had my favorite coffee on, Sumatra. It had a wonderful flavor, but absolutely no body behind it. It was like drinking hot Sumatran-flavored water which I didn't find enjoyable what so ever. To each their own, though. If you're a Starbucks fan, that's cool & I'm sincerely glad you enjoy it. If not, there's plenty of other options.

I've had a similar experience, tried Starbucks a few times and was unimpressed each time. But as you said to each their own.

Excellent. Thanks. Take your time. No rush.

I used to love Halo's Twisted Java and Cafe Mocha, but their flavor is light on the coffee to me, heavy on the sweet. And I can't stand the smell of the vapor they produce. I used them outside.

It was my search for a great coffee vape (I tried many) that turned me into a DIYer. Then I had the long search for perfect coffee base flavors, which I have finally found. I use two. Nature's Flavors "Organic Coffee" tastes most like my morning cup: coffee, cream, lightly sweet. High Desert Vapes sells NF flavorings and other DIY stuff, and they have a premixed version of this Organic Coffee. I use this by itself for a plain coffee.

My most-used is Espresso by Flavour Art. It's pure and true espresso flavor, very concentrated and lasts forever if you DIY. I am not an espresso drinker and rarely vape it without other flavors added, but I use this Espresso in anything I want a true coffee taste. Mix with caramel, chocolate, vanilla, hazelnut, bakery flavors, whatever - and the excellent coffee taste shines through it all. I don't know of any vendors who sell it as plain espresso, but I am sure some of the fancy, boutique-y premixed flavors have this as their base.

I agree with you on that--I think Virgin Vapor uses NF flavorings (could be wrong), but I have some Organic Turkish Coffee from VV that was good on the initial inhale, but almost fruity on the exhale. I don't like that flavor so much. So I had some Big Willie's Vanilla Custard in a clearo (about 1/4 full) and decided to put the OTC in with it. AMAZING coffee flavor without the fruity aftertaste. I didn't taste the vanilla or custard so much because the coffee is so strong. The custard just seemed to cut the aftertaste but leave the rich coffee flavor. This so far is the only coffee combination that I have vaped that comes close to a real fresh-brewed cuppa.

What is your favorite Kona Coffee Farm? Do you like Makahiki Farms? :)
Sorry I missed this originally. makahiki is fine. Its the belt of the kona coffee country in Captain Cook.
Most of the farms worldwide are 3-10 acres only! So labor intensive.
Over the years, I've had so many friends and nieghbors startup and run coffee farms!
Lately I've been into Ka'u coffee. Its the southern end of the Kona district area.
In Captina Cook, I also like .... Brothers Coffee, they also have taken several international awards over the years.
Just the past 2-3 years My Nieghbor at Cloudrest Coffee in Ka'u has been my weekly supplier.
There's another GREAT coffee farm on Molokai! Muleskinner Coffee. No shortage of primo java around here LOL!
One of my farms- (mostly mac nuts) is so close to Cloud Rest, I have to drive by the driveway - so knowing I like her
coffee, and have watched them (like most in 30 years) plant, grow, roast, package, taste test, etc..its just in my grinder
more often than others. I prefer medium roast (max caffiene) or the peaberry. I think the website shots of the Mac nut trees in the background is the front part of a property I bought back in 1976...so quality plus convenience often dictates my busy week.
Any of the Captain Cook Farms (they jointly roast usually with Kona Coffee growers council) do a good job.
For me & my tastebuds, the beauty of local coffee is full flavor without a dark roast- medium, max. caffiene boost, max flavor without any near burn. I went through my Dark/French/Espresso roast stages years ago. Age maybe mellows us?:D
I've got to fly out tonight for the week- but hookup if you like, and I'll try to check in on tapa if time allows.
aloha no pumehana. Happy holidays (mele kaliimaka)
