Hi, welcome to the forum. The short answer is no, not really. The problem as I see it is twofold:

#1. in order to mimic the real cigarette flavor you'd have to be burning the bottle of juice or something. Nothing's burning, hence no burning tobacco flavor.

#2. after trying a bunch of flavors MOST (not all) vapors generally agree that most of the juices out there taste better than what they used to be smoking before so there wouldn't be a huge sustainable market for it among long-time vapers. MOST (not all) will even say they smoked a cigarette some time later after starting to vape only to find the taste was so horrible that they couldn't finish more than a couple of drags.

Now for the good/bad news: There are literally thousands of flavors out there to try and the chances are excellent that at least one of them will become your "all day vape" and you'll end up happier with it than you ever were with your usual brand. Of course (here's the bad news part) that means you'll be on the internet shopping for juices until you find it.

Good Luck to you!:)

PS: perhaps it would help to lurk around the juice sub-forums to see what people are really liking juice-wise.

Some that I use when wanting something that tastes like a cigarette are Virginia, Hilton, Winston. Freedom from Halo tastes good also or Truepure if you like menthol which i dont but love truepure. But nothing will taste exactly like a cigarette. I actually found the vanilla cartos from smoke tip keep me from smoking a regular cigarette and when I do not want a sweet flavor I try one of the above listed. You can get an adaptor for the 510 which make it easier for beginners to use cartomizers that way you are not always having to refill the cart on a 510 and easier to try different flavors.

What Rosa said!!

You'll find that there is no REAL tobacco tastes out there, and from the sound of things, you got something like an RY4 flavor in your pre-filled cartridges. Do you LIKE the taste? If so, when you do your first liquid order, I'd suggest making sure you have an RY4 in there somewhere. It's a very popular flavor. Kind of sweet, with a carmel undertone to it?

The only liquid that I've had that tasted like a cigarette to ME, was Do-More-Eh from Vapables.com. But, it's a popular one, so it's hard to find it in stock.

I'd do as Rosa suggested and take a look at some flavors you think you'd like. Don't try to mimic the taste of a cig too much. Hard to do and yes, I had 2 puffs from a cig and almost PUKED!! I thought that I'd be smoking the FILTER if I touched one, so I was REALLY shocked that I was one of THOSE people that couldn't take the taste! I smoked 1 - 1.5 packs a day and NOPE!!

The most popular juice vendor on this site is probably Tasty Vapor. His Atomic Cinnicide is probably his most popular flavor and it's AMAZING, but very strong! It's like vaping Big Red gum before the flavor falls out of it! Give his site a look-see and see what you think you might like!

It's a HUGE learning curve, but it's a tasty one!! Good luck and welcome to the Forum Family!! :)

I think we all kind of went through the "Where's the cigarette taste" thing when we first started. But I can't tell you what a revelation it was to me the first time a tried a real flavor. It totally changed my concept of smoking. In a million years I never would have picked apple as a flavor, but I bought it by accident and it was just Wow. Give the flavors a try, you'll never look back.

I'm still on the search for the tobacco flavor as well. Not easy! So far it has been difficult to even come close to it. I agree with others that the other flavors are great, but I really did like the taste of tobacco and wish I could find something to emulate it. My favorite cigarette-like flavor so far is Hilton from Vapor4Life. When I first tried it, I didn't find it to be all that special, but I went back to it after a few days and, wow, it made a difference!

I started ecigs with the Greensmoke and their tobacco flavors did have a hint of something that I think is part of the puzzle, but I wouldn't say it was really a true tobacco flavor. I wouldn't recommend getting their product, however, because it is a bit limiting and their are definitely better options. I wish I knew where Greensmoke got their tobacco flavoring--I'd experiment with it myself!

I'll second the cartomizer suggestion. You can buy a tiny adapter which screws on your 510 battery and which you can then screw on a cartomizer. 10 bucks, more or less, will get you a 5 pack of different flavors from Vaper4Life. They have 3 sample packs of tobacco and 2 of menthol. If you like the taste of a particular cart you can then buy straight juice in that flavor and fill your own 510 cartridges. Or you can stick with the cartomizers if you like their convenience. They are starting to make 510 cartomizers too although V4L doesn't. I don't suggest V4L because I believe they have the best tasting tobacco-ish flavors but simply because they have those handy sample packs. Also because quite a few folks here do like the V4L flavors so I'm at least recommending a "good" company. They also have sample packs of 5 other types of flavors if you want to look for a non tobacco flavor.

If anyone smoked Parliaments (spelling on that one?) do try the Parliament from v4l... they are perfectly what I remember them tasting like. Unfortunately I don't care for that flavor...

Yeah, and I've YET to find a V4L flavor I like. They either taste like dirt or like perfume. :nah:
