I've got my first big bottle of nic juice and a handful of flavors and I think i have a snes of what i would like for a regular all day vape. Now i need to find a flavor supplier where i can get some good solid flavors NOT SWEET.

I got some pure mnthol and that seems right. But the chocalates i got are all very cloying and sweet i'm thinking dark chocolate expresso and peppermint. (i did get some good peperment from FSUSA but too pricey--there cocao is pretty tasty too.) i thing they get there stuff from flavor art--so who would i go to get flavor art? or is there a better source? Links please if possible.

For DIY i'd go with TPA Bitter-sweet Chocolate, it is definately like coco..i dont get any sweet from it but please be careful with it, to much can make your juice harsh (did for me anyway). TPA double chocolate dark for me is also a very dry dark chocolate flavor, limited sweetness unless mixed with other sweet flavors. (hit up onestopdiyshop.com for these, 1.50 for 6ml sizes)

Of course if neither of those flavors do the bitter chocolate trick for you, swing back over to purevapes.com and pick up a bottle of bitter wizard in their flavor art sample section. I have never used bitter wizard so i cant say it will do what it says, but its an idea.

From their selection, it would appear goodejuice is reselling flavorings from various companies, including PA and FlavorWest, and maybe FA and others. Tough to discern since they don't tell you.

Bitter Wizard actually adds bitterness, if you want to reduce the bitterness you need Magic Mask or Vape Wizard, but they can also reduce the strength of flavors that you might want in the liquid, so be careful and use sparingly.

The Perfumers Assistant=TPA but sold as Flavor Assistant Professional? BTW i also like the hot cinnamon flavor (not the redhot sweet candy flavor which i have accidentally ordered twice.) what is that called in the flavor world. cinnaman ceylon is so faint and cinnamon red hot tastes like candy. i don't like vaping candy.

Hey - didn't see in this thread so here's my suggestion - check out ecigexpress.com - their prices are amazing -
They carry:
-FlavourArt
-Perfumer's Apprentice (under Signature Flavors)
-Flavor West
-Lorann
-Tasty Puff
-Capella Flavors
-Tobacco (FlavourArt & Others)
I love FA flavors and most are available (all eventually) in 10ML bottles, filled to the brim for $3.99 - unbelievable, if not the best price on the web!!! - BTW, FA espresso and apple pie are incredible IMO - peppermint is one of my faves and the cocoa is really good - happy mixing

Thanks for the tips... ive filled up a couple of shopping carts at a couple of sites but got derailed looking for a mod as my ego batteries are getting kind of old and i am down to two. (except for back-up dead bat supposedly getting replaced by the vendor) . ive been vaping a very bland chocolate pre mix with some vanilla and peppermint i put in it but it's pretty blah. The first true DIY mix i made tastes pretty yuck. overdid the menthol and can barely taste the chocolate...i can see there is quite a learning curve here. I think i'll start my first seriou DIY mix with something simpler--ultra menthol FSUSA style (which seemed to me to be just nic plus menthol) and which i used as the base for my semi-DIY exercises) then i will have a vapable base which will keep me from slipping off the straight and true and back to analogs due to nasty juice (which happened to me earlier on in my vape path)
anyone else that shows up--keep throwing those vendors at me. I haven't made the buy yet.
