I really like bobas bounty but i'ts just a headache for me trying to keep this stuff wicking in the gear I have because of the 100%vg. I have diluted it with water and it works better but that takes away some flavor.

So any of you guys that like bobas know of something else I might like thats a similar taste (or better) with a mixture of pg/vg?

I havent tried a whole lot of juices, so if anybody has any recommendation like "if you like bobas bounty, you will really love...."

I would suggest Bounty Hunter and Gold from litecigusa. While a different flavor from Boba's, I would put it as "if you like Bobas, you will probably like...". They have similar rich, sweet, and flavorful profiles, and are 65% pg. I haven't had anything that matches the graham cracker of Boba's though.

Another one I would recommend is Smooth & Mild from The Plume Room. It's more tobacco than Boba's, but the flavor profile started to really remind me of the flavor and mouthfeel of Boba's. The exhale flavor also started to remind me strongly of an aspect of Boba's kicked up a notch.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions, will be looking into those and seeing if i can find reviews and pg/vg ratio and/or if you can request a higher pg concentrate!

I was wondering if anyone would suggest BH. That kinda works out very good for me because I have been using litecig for all my supplies, and I saw that they carried NLV juice but dang nothing under 30ml. I am making a list now for a future supply order so if I can get smaller bottles (or samplers) to try out from nlv and like them I could put the juice in with the supply order:)

Gold is my guilty pleasure! I agree with Jerms about this one, though not so much with BH.

If you're interested in DIY there is a thread for Boba's clones. I've yet to gather all the ingredients for one but its on my to-do list.

http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/diy-e-liquid/353176-my-bobas-clone.html

I've played around trying to make one with what I've got, and though I've not come close I have some made some pretty good flavors. Can't go 100% VG because of my nicotine base mixture, so they'll have PG in them.

I gave up on Bobas for the same reason. I'm still trying to find an ideal setup.. the RBA I got was slightly more maintenance than I was hoping for (I gave up almost immediately). The T3 is kind of "airy" and the Vivi is a bit muted. Have had the best flavor/experience from cartos and now I need to find a carto/tank that keeps me going all day without more drips.

Would anyone consider HHV Heavenly Tobacco close enough?

I like Heavenly Tobacco, more than I like Boba's, but the two aren't similar.
