I went through 2k dollars buying juices from every vendor under the sun, they all sucked. At least for me, I learned to DIY and suited the juice to my needs & tastes, have never looked back!

I'd also like to point out that just because someone is a for profit vendor that doesn't mean they make juice any better than anyone else, it's not exactly a science.

thanks for the help

ya i know jc makes the juice for blue, but is a special blend may still give it a shot.

have a bunch of fruity and sweet blends from mbv its more novelty, after a few puffs im done.

just got in 3 different flavors of tobacco from vape dudes in reg and menthol, hoping it calms down more cause its not smokeable right now.

one local vendors juice taste like soap,, lol eww.

im feelin a little discouraged i cant find the njoy flavor,, but i guess the only thing to do is try new vendors and grab a crap load of 10mil bottles..

That's it. Buy small quantities until you find something that works for you.

There was an very interesting article in New York Magazine about the development process of the Njoy King. It's a great read. Check it out here :

http://nymag.com/news/features/e-cigarettes-2013-5/index2.html

What interest me about how it came to fruition is how the flavor itself was developed.

"NJOY hired a master flavorist who’d spent his career in the tobacco industry and, using Marlboro as a model, tweaked the formula to get both the flavor and the nicotine sensation just so"

Many people who have tried the King describe it as unlike any other tobacco juice out there. It is absolutely unique in both taste and mouthfeel that goes beyond it's high nic level. It's very difficult to pinpoint the type of flavoring used mainly because its both flavorful and yet mild at the same time. What is obvious is that they charted a brand new direction that has yet to be matched by any vendor so far. Almost every eliquid on the market taste more like a leafy tobacco that provides an experience much closer to a cigar than a cigarette.

Njoy's flavorist correctly realized that a cigarette does not have that leafy tobacco aftertaste. Instead he set out to mimic the analog experience of burning paper and has largely succeeded.

It also seems that while they are not using whole tobacco alkaloids like "Aroma Ejuice", they are adding additional alkaloids beyond nicotine. Overall the expertise they brought in to develop the king has served them well.

Coincidently Aroma Ejuice is right down the street from Njoy and even has an Njoy staff member working there. The guy who works there is really cool and If he gets enough calls asking for a analog style, paper flavored tobacco eliquid, I'm sure he will see that coming up with such a product would be a good move on his part.

The demand is certainly there. Well at least from me, lol.

I am thinking I will eventually start doing the same thing. Any tips for someone that wants to try it?

Look at the DIY threads and read the stickie threads at the top of the forum first. Then read Hoosier's (member) blogs to get started.

You will need a bit of investment at first with base and enough flavors to play around with. You should start with the basics 1) the flavors you like (fruit, dessert, tobacco, drink, etc.) 2) a sweetener like EM and sucralose (get both) 3) get a good mixing program so you aren't just randomly guessing how much of each ingredient to add 4) start with 36mg nicotine until you are accustomed to mixing, then move up
