Hello! Just getting into juices and would enjoy some suggestions. So far my ShoppingCart has:

7 Leaves
Vanilla Tahiti
Cocoa
Coffee Espresso
Menthol Artic
(and 808 blank cartos)

All are 100%PG and 12-mg nic. I've found I much prefer PG to any PG/VG blend. Not sure what other flavours to try! Yes, stuck-in-rut LOL. My only prior adventure has been licorice...a keeper.

TIA!

LOL You'll probably end up with a hundred different suggestions. It's really hard to try to say what someone else will like because everyone is soo different.

I'd say you've got a good list there to start with. You should get a sampler with your order and that will be where you start getting hooked on other flavors...David at FSUSA loves doing that to all of us. LOL

Are you mainly looking for tobacco flavors?

As Free said, it'll be tough to give you a good list because taste on these is so subjective.

The other thing that could through a wrench in your plans with FSUSA is that a lot of their specialty juices are 50/50 blend and cannot be ordered otherwise. I have heard second hand that this is because of flavor concerns, but I cannot verify that. All I know is that each and every 50/50 juice I've had from FSUSA is better and more flavorful than any other pg/vg mixture or purity from other vendors. I've also tried 60/40 and 70/30 from him and they are all excellent.

That being said..there are a large number of juices that you can completely customize to your liking..

(without necessarily distinguishing between "specialty" and "non-specialty")

Here is a good list of flavors that most people seem to predominantly like...(also, I will be doing a review of 13 different flavors tonight or tomorrow that I will put a link in this thread for)


1. Hopscotch - Butterscotch to the max. This is the closest flavor I have had that replicates the taste of the actual food (and that's saying something because every FSUSA juice has been spot on). This is amazingly flavorful, sweet..but not so overly sweet that you can't vape it pretty consistantly.

If you've ever liked Butterscotch, this is the vape for you!

2. Jungle Juice - I got this as a sample in my order and it is the best citrus mix vape I've ever had. It is emulating a fruit punch with alcohol basically and while it is 98% fruity there is a slight bite of the alcohol at the exhale. Very nice vape, probably one of my all days coming up, the slightly sharp after taste is really refreshing and cuts the sweetness perfectly.

3. Bubblegum - Of all the flavors I got, this was the one I thought that I might not like. I was expecting sickening sweet and a predominantly sugar flavor. I was totally wrong, this is literally like vaping a piece of double bubble... amazing!

So far those are my faves...some other nice fruit ones

Lemon Sicily
Banana

Thank you, everyone!

MistressNomad, I can't say what it is, but PG/VG blends aren't agreeing with me. :-( How I found FSUSA was looking for someone with 100% PG juices. They have a huge selection! And, I was looking for a company who sourced US.

Free2BMe, the only tobacco I've tried is "Regular" that came with my 4081. Like it, but not at 6USD per carto. Not sure if 555 is considered tobacco, but I like it from the 808 cartos I've been using.

Stiffle, aye, taste is subjective :) Never imagined I'd like licorice; actually found it quite tasty. The Jungle Juice sounds interesting. Look forward to reading your additional reviews. I've been reading the different review threads and that's what got me to thinking about different flavours.

Thanks again. I'm going to keep an open mind about trying different flavours!

....are my favorites so far. The rest are excellent that I've tried but I don't care for stuff with chocolate. I can't taste the chocolate yet (taste buds still shot). I keep trying them though and have a stash so that possibly, one day, my buds will finally fall back in love with chocolate.

Just be sure to get small bottles until you figure out what you like. I'd suggest 10ml. Those give you enough juice to really try one out. Then when you know for sure what you want, go for the 60 or 120ml bottles as their more economical. And be sure to check back here often to see if there is a Sale going on. FSUSA is very generous with Sales!

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You! Everyone :) Ok, so I'm changing my ShoppingCart to 10mL rather than 5mL. Hadn't planned on getting very large bottles, as my tastes are certainly changing, even throughout the day. But getting 10mL makes sense for taste-testing, too.

For some reason, juices with VG give me a mouth-feel of sticky/gummy/oily. Not my favourite experience. The plumes of vapor are nice, tho. Guess it's a matter of finding the right ratios.

Off to play with my ShoppingCart :) Beginning to feel like the Sorcerer's Apprentice. Next is to see if they have Tobacco Absolute and I've missed it.
