When I started considering an E-Cig, Flavors never occurred to me. I would NEVER smoke a tobacco cigarette that was flavored... BLECH.

Now I have read a number pf posts by people who thought the same as me, but discovered that they actually LIKE flavors. Even the "mint" (menthol) flavors.

Go figure.

So I ordered a Cloves, and a Vanilla and the company is sending me a Grape and a Caramel Machiado to try.

Did you think that you would never like them and now you do? What flavors? What brand?

I never thought that I would enjoy vaping coffee, candy, fruit or anything that was not a tobacco flavored juice but I was wrong! My absolute all day favorite vape is Atomic Fire Ball from Tasty Vapor. This is just an awesome juice. If you have not tried this one, it is a must! It is a 10! Still searching though for the best menthol for the morning cup of coffee and the after meal vape.

i swore when i started vaping that i would NEVER want flavors i ordered marlboro and DK TAB and rich flavors (All tobacco flavors) i got some English toffee and cappuccino and after about 3 days i started to not want the tobacco flavors and started wanting the flavored ones. NOW believe it or not i love the flavored ones and only smoke the tobacco flavors if i run out of the others.

ive since ordered the atomic fire ball and the bananas one( dont remember the exact name) and 2 sample packs all from tasty vapors.

there was no way anyone was going to convince me that i would like the flavored juice when i first started this, everyone was saying that you will change your mind just wait.. and sure enough i did.

get a sample pack from somewhere of a flavored type and give it a few days. you wont want to go back.. ill bet on it.

Flavors can be great, and make the whole vaping experience become far better than smoking. I like some flavors, but I keep them pretty low, and sometimes just vape unflavored. I tend towards the flavors I like in soft candies, like toffee, vanilla, pralines and cream. Thought I would like the fruit flavors, but I don't really...too sharp. I have found that a good flavor in a VG juice can kill my cravings for candy too, which can be rather high sometimes. I make my own DIY juices, so I can make the amount of flavor whatever I want.

My favorite was Lorann's Bavarian Creme, but they have been out everytime I think of trying to order more. Eventually.

Premade flavored juices are a bit of a crap shoot. Do some digging here, and see what others like. Vaping is not as much like smoking, as it is like eating a dessert by inhaling it, along with nicotine. More like hookah than analog, IMHO.

I'm pretty new to all this. I've only been vaping for over a month and I could not get myself to like flavors! I was a menthol smoker, and menthol is the only thing that I can vape and feel satisfied and content with.

The thought of vaping fruit or coffee or... the thought of vaping "food" in general really grossed me out (vaping cheese cake? eeew!) LOL

I kept reading about all these "delicious" flavors that people absolutely love and I just didn't get it. I ordered a few "flavors" when I started.... and a few more as time went on.... but I still didn't get it. I'd try them, and within minutes I was reaching for my favorite menthol.

To me, vaping should be what smoking was to me. I was a one brand girl, period. I smoked my brand and couldn't smoke anything else. Even when I was desperate and HAD to smoke something else, as soon as I could get my hands on my regular brand, the substitute pack was given away or tossed out.

Recently I started asking more questions about these "flavors" and reading all the reviews in the E-Liquid Review section here. The way people described some of those flavors had me drooling.

I love cinnamon, caramel, coffee... I really like a lot of delicious tasting things. Why can't I vape them?

One of my friends on here helped me with the whole "flavor thing". I'm now waiting for 2 deliveries of flavored e-liquid! (Atomic Fireball being the first one I thought I would like because it's cinnamon)

I'm so over my cigarettes, the thought of smoking one makes me nauseous. Why do I have to only be happy with menthol? There's a whole world of flavors out there and vaping is supposed to be about choices and variety!

Hopefully, tomorrow after the mail comes, I'll be joining everyone else who figured this out already, and a lot faster than I did!

Maybe my favorite "go-to" "all-day" menthol juice will last a lot longer now that I'm finally expanding my vaping vocabulary :)

Only time I like flavours is if I add a bit to an existing tobacco flav to compliment it. Other than that, I'm a tobacco flav vaper all the way. Have tried vaping just flavour w/no tobacco and I prefer the tobacco taste.

That's why I ordered "Cloves". I figured that it might be a nice additive to a tobacco flavor.

thats actually how i started, i mixed mine, i order the 25mg or 36mg nic level juice, i know its strong but i get the cigarette feeling/taste due to the high nic level and i dont have to vape as much to get satisfied. if its too strong just take a smaller hit.

i found that if i get the lower nic level stuff like 16 or what ever the hit was inconsistent and id didnt feel it all the time.. with the 36 you get a BIG TH yet still get flavor and again just take a smaller hit and you wont have to worry about the amount.

also you can mix it will the 0 nic to reduce it and get more.

Actually I always thought the flavors sounded much morepreferable to the tobacco flavors fromt he get-go - and I loved almost all of the ones i got. Some of the ones I didn't care so much for I have come to like, some I've mixed with others to get new flavors and some are still in my 'hmm not sure' pile. I never throw anything away :) Sometimes your tastes change, so its worth it, imo, to hang onto to everything.
Now I'm look at tobacco flavors, finally, thinking I might give em a chance after all :)
Anyone looking for flavors can do no worse than browse the E Liquid review forums btw - it will show what's popular, true, but it also will give you a list of suppliers you can look at to give you ideas of our own :thumb:
