My suggestion for most flavors except very strong flavors such as cappuccino, or cinnamon is to add the extra flavor option. My all day vape is ecblends ry4 with xtra flavoring and xtra vanilla. I also like their dragons tear, with extra flavor and extra strawberry. These two seem to be a very creamy smooth vape which I really enjoy. Without the extra flavoring it seems some of the juices flavor can be weak, I have yet to try sweetner which I will have to try on my next order.

Thanks for the tips... I didn't order anything with extra flavor or anything, so we'll see. I did do as they suggested, though, and only ordered the smallest bottles to start with. So I'll check 'em all out, after steeping the tobaccos a couple weeks, and see what changes I might need to make for the next batch :)

They have been one of my premiere vendors for juice. They must have some of the best flavor chemists around. To come up with the blends and flavor combinations that they have is pure genius! The ability to customize your purchase (even if it is a small bottle) is awesome!

They by far have the best Peach flavor available. Hands down, no questions asked! I've tried TONS. I also received a sample of Boysenberry wich is incredible as well. I would have to say that their fruit flavors are probably the most accurate in taste based on what I have purchased so far around various vendors. The best part: I'm not a fruit flavor person, but every once in a while, I like to break out of my usual caramel or vanilla or coffee or nut type of flavors.

They make my "custom blend" flavor which I call Double Hazelnut Coffee which is:
Coffee Your Way - eLiquid Flavor Base Mix: 50% PG / 50% VG,
Coffee Strength: Regular Black
Sugar Shot: Sugar
Coffee Flavor Shot 1: Add Hazelnut
Coffee Flavor Shot 2: Add Cream
Coffee Flavor Shot 3: Add Hazelnut
Coffee Flavor Shot 4: Add Cream

STEP FOR 4-6 WEEKS before vaping so the flavors will meld. Right out of the envelope, it's like vaping flavorless.
One of the main things that I have found with ECBlend is you MUST Step their juices. They even state that on their site. Each bottle is made on a per order basis. Unlike food (see the Stepping thread), these are flavor chemicals, it's not like adding garlic to tomato sauce for your favorite pasta dish. The chemicals need to react to bring out the optimum flavor!

A co-worker and ECF thread member got me hooked on their Dragon Blends. AWESOME! How do you get CREAM in a liquid is beyond me, but they are great.

I can't stress enough though: Let these flavors Step! I have found for MY tastes with ECB is to let them step for at least 2 weeks, and preferablly 4. Don't forget to air out the juice when stepping!

HUH? Air out? Sure, uncap the bottles and let sit overnight the first day you get your order. When you wake up, cap them up and store in a dim or dark location for 4 weeks.

I know... 4 weeks is a drag, but you get used to figuring out how to order in advance.

I took your advice and ordered extra flavor with my order from EC Blends:) I'm new to vaping and am waiting on my eGo Twist and T2 to arrive. I've ordered juices from several vendors mentioned here.

ECB has been a goto shop for me since I started ordering juices online 4-6 months ago. I love making my custom creations, howev I've deff made some that were not as good as i would thought. Hands down my fav flavor from them is Thin Mint Cookies, feels like a girlscout is slinging cookies in my lungs! Always xtra flavor, and let steep. Fast shipping and low prices, but I havent liked everey flavor i've tried, but the majority I have liked. I attribute this to my wildness in ordering every nontobacco flavor I have even the remoteset interest in. ECBlend rocks socks and is who I recommend to friends and has been the catalyst of converting many coworkers in my office to the world of vaping :)

I've gotten several from ECB... Just reordered a couple I really liked though.

I tried their 7 Leaf, one of the tobacco/almond/vanilla blends, the desert gold?? I believe it was, and they sent a trial sample of Dragons Leaf. I just ordered 30ml bottles of the 7 Leaf and Dragons Leaf.. The others WERE good, but I didn't like them as much as those two. The Turkish tobacco I got (I think desert gold) was almost exactly like a camel cigarette which I give them tons of credit for being able to mimic, though I was hoping it would be more of a sweet shisha (sp?) style tobacco like the Sahara from V2..

Good blends though and I'm wanting to try a lot more when I've got the extra $$

I got mine today. The dragon's leaf is good...I can see it needing time to steep to really bring out the flavors though. The White Peach a la Zoe is reminiscent of a favorite peach herbal tea I used to drink, and will likely strengthen with steeping. I may not make it a day without going through the Dragon's Tear bottle. I couldn't wait and it's so good straight out of the envelope! I have to restrain myself as I've heard it's even better with a little time. I have not yet tried the RY4 or the Dragon's Blood I ordered. They sent me a sample of Dragon's Nectar as well.

The Dragon's Blood is still my favorite, but definitely let it steep for about 2 weeks to get the best flavor. I have 15ml bottles of Dragon's Nector and Dragon's Apple from my last order that I haven't broken open yet, but I will be dripping them this weekend try them out. Also, if you like the Dragon's Tear, you should give the Dragon's Delight (pear & peach) a try, it's another of my favorites.

The dragons delight sounds perfect!! Absolutely going on my next order with them!

Got my first order from them yesterday. They sent a free sample of Dragon Nectar which I had to try immediately. Loved it! Funny story though, went out last night got a little drunk, was really really really craving an analog so I gave in and smoked a few. When I got up this morning and decided to change flavors I realized that the Dragon Nectar sample was 0mg nicotine~~!! No wonder I was jonesing so bad!! So I learned a valuable lesson, always read the label on any freebies~~! :blush:

I don't know but after 3 weeks using their stuff I can't feel no flavor at all.Weird.

I have had the same problem with several of the flavors. When I can taste them they are amazing, but some days i cannot taste them at all. It is definitely strange. They have an article about it on their site, this situation is known as vapor's tongue apparently. My taste has returned for some of the flavors, but my favorite flavors (apple pie and apple) seem to have no taste at all. And the new cinnamon apple flavor, all I taste is cinnamon. Maybe I just need to give the apple a break for a while LOL! This also happened to me with all of my fruity flavors. Just gotta switch flavors up and when you can't taste one, try a cinnamon or methol to shock your taste buds back into shape.
