Ever had a not-so-good flavor you can't put down?

I just received "Dragon's Fire" from HHV. At first I was like "This tastes like horses smell with some cedar chips or sawdust mixed in" but now I can't put it down. :blink: Almost like my brain wants to analyze it some more, and now I really love it. LOL Do you have any weird juice stories?

Seems counter-intuitive but I had a similar experience w/ liquid amber ordered from parkes vaping. It was disgusting but tasted like something I remembered from summer camp when I was a kid but couldn't put my finger on...finally after like 6 hours of puffing on this horrid juice I realized it was evergreen trees... Also turns out it tastes nothing like the actual, original liquid amber from Flavour Art which is awesome and perfectly balanced, complex and just might tasty. My "all-day vape" is something I keep trying to figure out what it is btw, it's what keeps me coming back to it all the time...finally gave in and just vape it all day now but that's part of what makes a great juice in my opinion, that x factor u can't quite place.

This is funny. I saw the subject, and thought "Dragon's Fire after 2 week's steeping". And I still taste chocolate in it, even though everyone tells me there's not.

This weekend at the local vapemeet a new friend let me try PLUID... It was the most horrid, disgusting, terrible thing I have ever experienced in the world of vaping, yet for the last 2 days I have had an unquenchable thirst for the stuff...

Yes, much like the Colonel with his wee tasty chicken which makes you crave it fortnightly.

For me it Fuzion's "The Griffin". I can't even describe the flavor. I vaped a whole tank of it before I realized I didn't really want it.

I had a similar experience with Twisted tobacco from Copper Creek. Didn't really for care vaping it, but kept having a craving to go back to it. Can't conclude if I liked it or not. Weird!

That's exactly how I felt about it! It tasted like "memories". I want to try more juices that taste like memories.

M-type tobacco. I have a little 5mL that I think is too strong (1 drop!!!) and is currently about a week into steep. I put some in a carto when I made it. Nutty overload. I'm cautiously trusting everyone that it gets better and letting it sit... but I can't stop trying that cartridge!

Don't get me wrong: I don't like it. I have a puff or two and put it away. It's like it wants to be a good flavor and I don't have the heart to let it go. Does that make sense?

Vaperite VR4 - there's "something" in the tobacco part of it I cannot for the life of me ID. When I first tried it, it triggered a memory from way back - but I can't recall what the memory was...or even if it was something I ate? something I smelt in the air one day...in the country? in a pub? When? Where? How? What IS it????? And of course I have to keep vaping it because its illusory but just out of reach.

Whoo. I had a tobacco menthol from mr. vape that was a nutty nightmare. Thankfully, I ordered it as a sample so I didn't waste a lot of money. I must have taken the top off the bottle 50 times to smell it, gagging every time, and then I would drip. Vape. Gag. Drip. Vape. Gag. Put away. The next day I would repeat. I think I was hoping it would grow on me, but it never did.
.....And for some reason I still have it.

Now that's JC Original. For nearly a month I could not figure out the aftertaste. It was SO familiar but I couldn't peg it.

What was the smell? Vanilla wafers, those flaky rectangular ones with the frosting in the middle. Spot on. I would love to know how many actual chemicals the liquid and those wafers have in common.
