I actually went to the vape store in town I found on Aggies link she sent,
Quick nic Juice - Quality E-liquid made in the U.S.A. Better your habit... One drop at a time They mix as you wait, nice guys. I found 2 that I liked, one is more like an ultralight and the other a Marlboro red, the RY4 was a little too much but I also have one heck of a cold right now. What I am going to end up doing is mixing some of both and see if I get the taste I'm looking for. But, I forgot to get extra bottles... I'm sure I'll do some sampling here and there but the main thing at this point is to get off the analogs.
Every single vaper that began like you did, wanted to find a vape that was like our smoke when we first started. But then after finding some juice that was acceptable, many decide to try some different flavors along the way and found juice that was way more enjoyable than any cigarette could ever be. Also, when one has been vaping for a bit, they usually find cigarette tastes repulsive, since their taste and sense of smell starts to recover.
Right now I am currently vaping Captain Blacks Cinfull Delight, Virginia Extreme Fired Tobacco, and Miss American Pie. All I different tanks. Captain Blacks Cinfull is my favorite ADV, but love the other two, quite well, also. About 4 months ago I gave up on the juice roulette game and started DIY juice. I now mix my own and am loving it. What I love best about it is being able to customize the blends to my personal preference. Also saving lots of money while doing it. I still have a bunch of extract flavors that I haven't tried yet, but will get around to it.
Vaping is an ever on going learning experience, the more you know, the more one wants to find out and try. Finding the juice ratio's, nic mg, and flavors, is probably one of the most frustrating things about vape. It seems you have to vape a few duds before finding ones delight.
Vape long and Prosper!!
