caramel flavor-- am I missing something?

[erinspeed]

I have tried caramel flavor from two different vendors, and both had a...uh...wrong taste to them. I realize that taste is subjective, but these didn't have that warm, sweet, smooth soft flavor I was hoping for. Instead, I got a sharp, chemical taste that didn't even remotely remind me of what I wanted. Caramel is just sugar that is starting to burn (over simplified, I admit), so I'm really surprised that they both missed the mark so much. Anybody have a suggestion as to where I can find a top-notch caramel?

I never found a caramel that was anything like caramel taste until I got some Tasty Vapor Caramel Apple in a trade. It is excellent in my opinion, not sharp. Mine is sweetened, 24mg 65/35 pg/vg, and I drip it. It might be the higher vg that helps soften it too.

After I read your post I had to go get some out and have it again! Good luck!

Add me too to the list....Cant seem to find the right one.....The one that DOES come kinda close is "Caramel" from The Vapor Room....18 mg 50/50 mix....Give that one a try...see what you think...YMMV

Well, that makes a difference. I was going to stop by a local store (which I really want to stay around for my own benefit) and tell him that how his juice wasn't doing it for me. I guess ill cut him some slack. This is the first juice I have bought from him. As a business owner myself, i feel really strongly that I should get my stuff from a local guy's physical store. By the time I pay shipping, it ends up justifying his slightly higher prices. Plus he is a good guy. I was disappointed in this "caramel coffee" flavor, but I guess I'll buy something different next time. Maybe this time I'll listen to his suggestions. Serves me right.

I've tried a couple of carmels and also a butterscotch. They have a "turpentine" like taste to me. Guess I'll stick to the fruit juices.

I DIY and can tell you that you need to remember that plain caramel is bitter. Try to find a caramel candy flavor if you are looking for a sweet caramel candy flavor. Sounds a little crazy I know but I went through the same thing that most of you are going through when I first started vaping and this is what I finally figured out. Good luck to you all

I really like the caramel tobacco from madvapes after it steeps for about a week. The tobacco is very subtle and the caramel is nice and smooth. I have to order more, mines empty
