Im glad you said something. I like vanilla, but i have found with alot of vanilla juices they tend to be very strong and thats not what im looking for. Thanks for the input. I do like coffee btw so i am goin to include cafe caramel in the sample!

Some juice is good if you mix it together. Vanilla is good with tobacco. Even coffee is good with tobacco. I even have a sample of orange that I mix with vanilla.

Vapor Bomb has coffee with cream and sugar. I haven't tried it but some people like it.

Do you not like blue mist cuz the flavors just arent good or little vapor production or what? Also, general question to those who have ordered from there. You have the option to add extra flavor, is this necessary? will it be flavorless if i dont do this, or is the flavor decent with out the extra? Also i was looking at some "fire and ice" combos by different companies, i would like to try that!

Its def not necessary to add the extra flavor option. Some are good with it but its not necessary. I get the cafe caramel without the extra and find it to be plenty flavorful.

Also I recommend to get them in 80/20. its thinner and will work better in cartos

And I def agree with swedish fish. Vanilla juices are hard to get right. I like vanilla but have found I dont like most vanilla juices.

i just didn't like their flavors...if you take a look at their reviews on here, it seems people either love or hate them...not many in between. extra flavor is definitely not necessary -- in fact, i'd advise against it. the fire and ice does indeed sound intriguing!

It's just like 50 people going out for ice cream and everyone orders different flavors. You just never know until you try it. I got very lucky when I started- I liked the first juice I tried and I still vape it. My sister liked her first juice (VS tampa) My mom tried about 100 until she found what she liked, now that's all she vapes.

That's the hardest and most expensive part of this because of all the shipping charges and wasted cartos and things.

I also don't like sweet flavors...yet. I have pretty much kept to tobacco flavors, though I have tried several sweet juices.

I started vaping on Oct 10th of this year and ordered a sample pack, all 24 mg, along with a kit, dse-801, that is where the sweet flavors came from initially. I had the opportunity to choose the 5 flavors. Among those choices was a menthol, ry4 and t 5 tobacco from myvapor store. Menthol didn't cut it for me. I did like the ry4 and the t 5 was ok, at first.

After a couple of days or so I started with some issues which later resolved themselves as a burnt wick, change in my ability to taste, and the nasty oily stuff that some new carts come with. I almost quit vaping too. I kept researching and resolved those issues and started liking the ry4. It has a nutty flavor but idoes not overpower the tobacco. It kind of reminds me of the smell of a pipe or cigar. The menthol just would not do it for me. The reason was that the atomizer had that oil, whatever it is, and it just happened to be the one I tried with the menthol. It took days, maybe a week or more before I could even bring myself to try it again. I have since finished off that 10 ml bottle and even started to enjoy it a bit.

The reason I tell you all this is because I almost went back to cigarettes mostly because I did not understand my gear well enough and I did not have a good technique. Once I understood how to use my gear things kind of fell into place. I am so glad I kept at it and I feel you will too.

A couple of questions for you. How long did you smoke, what kind of gear are you using, how much did you smoke, and what nicotine level is your juice? If you used a cart, which most kits come with, then I wouldn't be surprised if it was the coating on it which has tainted you as it did me. Did you blow it out and try to clean it before use?

Don't give up. Read about your gear, how to improve it, understand it, and your vaping technique. If you must smoke then do so, don't beat yourself up over it, but continue to experiment with your gear. You already have the gear so you might as well keep playing with it.

Like most everything else in life there is a learning curve we struggle with but when we get over that initial hump things get better and better. I kept reading about all these folks loving this and I just thought it wasn't for me. After that hump came the benefits and I became one of those folks too.

BlueMist has a LOT of juices. They def have some good ones, but their def not all good. Frankly I think some of them are gross. But they also have some I love. So reviews going both ways are expected. For the price, I think their worth trying. As long as you read some reviews and dont pick anything too crazy, I think you might get a few you like

I think the majority of your problem is the ecig you are using. Have you tried LR510 Atty's and direct dripping?
I started w/ a 510 2 years ago, and moved away from carts to DD'ing pretty quickly (Max Flavor)..
I recently bought a TW Tank, and it SUCKED! Burnt taste, and even if it did wick good, reduced flavor. No wonder you can't find a flave you like! I went to the new Ego-C system, and the tank wicks much better on the new "C" Atty. BUT, I have some LR510 Atty's and DD for home use, the Tank which for me get's 85% of the flavor through, I use when I'm mobile.

Also remeber that your tastebuds are going to change alot. A juice that you dont like in the beginning, you might like down the line. So if you dont like one, dont throw it out. Put it away, let it steep some and try in a few weeks to a month later. Some might surprise you. Steeping can really change the flavor of some juices. And some that you didnt like, you STILL wont like! ha

I got a bottle of adams apple from vaporcaststore which is a mentholated green apple. The menthol in this one is strong and smooth and the apple rounds out the flavor for me. It doesn't seem too sweet to me, but I do like sweet flavor. It has become my first all day vape.

So, I would recommend trying some menthol flavors.....and coffees too

Going with what redzone said, Its not totally bc of your PV, but I would recommend you get some cartos and an atty or 2 if you dont have any. Use an atty and drip to try new flavors and once you find one you like, then fill a carto or tank. That way you dont waste a carto if you dont like a juice.

@alanselo. I use totally wicked tornado tank attys with 650 batteries. The attys are low resistance. Im not very gear savy=( But yes i just recieved an atty from them and i CANNOT get that nasty factory taste out. I run water thru it, sprayed the interior with air duster and let in set in rice to try and pull out moisture and that factory taste, but alas, nothing. I like the tank system tho, thats why i use it. I dont wanna drip or wadd or whatever. Im on the go alot and that wouldnt work. I smoke(d) marlboro reds about a pack a day so tryin to replace the taste of that. But in my opinion, none of the marlboro flavors come close.

I dont know what mg juices you like but the cafe caramel I have is 16mg without the extra flavor. I have some extra empty bottles bc I make some juices myself so I can send you a 5ml bottle of it. Ill prob add another little bottle of something else too.
PM me your name and address and Ill send it on monday. I cant guarantee youll like it, but you might. I hope you do. You gota post an update on here or somewhere on the forum once you get them to let me know if you like them cause Ill def be curious to know.
And hey maybe down the line if you find something you really like you can return the favor
