kit,
Don't think I can help you cause there is no flavor so far that I dislike.
I like vanilla the best cause it seems to have the strongest taste.
However, I have heard peeps say "Oh, no strawberry (or this one or that one) has the strongest taste."
Thanks nerdy have you tried cherry heard that's nice is it true they damage the atomizer quickly though? :x

Kit, I bought a "flavor pack" of all E-Cig flavors and tried them in an e-cigar. The only one I'd order is flue-cured tobacco. Most of the time, I had NO IDEA what flavor the vapor was supposed to be. Subtle doesn't do those flavors justice. More like ... wimpy beyond belief. On a "nice flavor" scale of 1 to 10, all were 1s. Except "green tea" and "rose." Those were -1s. "Ginseng" was -2.

Flue-cured tobacco was the only one I'd use again. Very sweet tobacco taste.

BTW edit: The 7-day lifespan of the atomizer means you don't need to worry about shortening its life by two hours if you use flavored liquids. You want flavor? Drip about 10 drops of pure vanilla extract (and I mean no additives except alcohol or propylene glycol) into your whatever liquid. Now, that's vanilla vapor!

I've got agree with Bob, the flavours in most of the carts is wimpy to say the least, there is a subtle hint of what it is supposed to be, and I do mean subtle ! Don't expect a named flavour to resemble the actual item it's named after, orange isn't, coffee isn't none of them are.

I buy flue cured, regular and cigar carts mainly, they taste ok for most smoking. I also have a flavour I call melange, it's the squeezings from all my used carts and has a unique flavour all of it's own which constantly changes, currently it has a caramel, raspberry taste to it, I added some of both flavouring to some carts, it was a bit strong so they got squeezed into the stock bottle, much more subtle now. For mixing I still have some tasteless liquid left over, not much though, I missed out on the deadline to get more juice out of China, before the paranoia of the Olympics hit. I hope they have a decent stock held for when the ban is lifted and everyone orders again.

I wonder how many juice makers there are in China ?

From what I've been able to glean from various sites and sources, it seems there maybe one or perhaps two in China. E-cig seems to be one of them although I'd wager they buy theirs in and perhaps mix it. Ruyan is the other that has been mentioned, again I think they will be mixers not makers. I've read fleeting mention of there being a maker/mixer based in Spain, but nothing concrete to validate that though.

To be honest I think all the e-smoker bits and bobs all come out of a small group of makers and are assembled only by all the companies in China that are selling these devices. So what we get is basically all the same thing irrespective of the brand name on it, but with the pretty packaging and paint job on the case designed by the end sellers or in alot of cases the stock packaging. I maybe wrong here and welcome any comments especially from the suppliers

Michael: I've posted the exact link before, but ... (at least some if not all) E-Cig cartridges are made and exported to China from CUBA. Ah ha. Cuba has tobacco. China needs tobacco-based product. Who better to supply it than a Communist-state buddy? Of course, that portends the end of cartridges if Uncle Sam figures this out. The EU just lifted its sanctions on Cuba, but the U.S. stands to lose E-Cig liquid stuff made in Cuba because of a trade embargo.

The Spain connection is FreeSmoke and it supposedly comes from the Canary Islands (under Spanish rule).

Go figure on why ...

Bob, off topic I know, but I have a few of the last cuban made Davidoff cigars in my humidor right now ! Back when I had the money, read 80's, my choosen smoke at any time were davidoff cigars, typically the Davidoff 4000 at $40 a pop they weren't cheap, but I didn't care back then, caviar on whole grain toast was also my breakfast of choice as well, sevruga of course, the tipple of choice was champagne, people used to say open champagne for an occassion, I always used to say open champagne and make an occassion, and I certainly did, used to love popping down to the bottle store for a six pack of moet in my convertible xjs, maroon with tan connolly. Ah those were the days, was I a yuppy, you better believe I was !
