I can tell that I've tried every flavor in the E-Cig sample pack, plus numerous other flavors and about eight from Janty and ... none have a cigarette flavor. None. Flue-cured flavor is my favorite, but make no mistake, this can't hold a candle to puffing a pipe or cigar. What's missing? Smoke. Why is that flavor so illusive?

Ned, thanks for just giving me some direction. I know it's personal blah blah blah...but come on you "chasing the burning cigarette flavor" people...what is your favorite flavor that tries to hit that spot?

thats assuming we are chasing the burning tobacco taste.... "effect" possibly but i much prefer the taste of my flue cured e vapour to my golden virginia rolls ups..

could i describe what flue cured tastes like.. no not really.. but it does taste of "something" i can vaguely associate with as a smoking "thing"..

normal tobacco flavour to me has pretty much no taste at all.. marlboro has no taste at all.. ruyan cigar does taste a bit like a cigar..

but there are many tastes i aint tried and to be honest cant be bothered to.. i certainly aint chasing my roll up taste thow.. he he

could i describe my roll up taste.. nope..

trog

ps.. one thing i can say is.. for reasons as yet unknown to me i still smoke the odd roll up.. its always a disappointment.. which is why i cant fully fathom out the reasons i still do it..

You're lucky in that respect. Of the flavours that taste vaguely of tobacco, I also prefer the French Pipe to my old filter cigarettes, but nothing comes close to the flavour of Golden Virginia rollups, which is why my husband won't change over :(

I'm trying cigar flavour next. Apparently, e-cigs.co.uk 'like smoke' was a bit like the real thing, but of course it's sold out.

if your husband is like many real smokers i know he wont change over cos he dosnt want to change over.. the reasons he gives for not doing so.. ???

but finding "valid" reasons to real smoke in this day and age.. gets harder thats for sure..

basically its a case of really wanting to before the change is made.. e cigs aint real cigs and never will be.. the "difference"will always be there and has to be "tolerated"..

my evil smokers cough gave me the reason to swap.. he probaby still feels perfectly okay as i did for many years..

if the site dosnt use paypal its the credit or debit card.. not much u can do about that.. paypal is certainly much easier.. but with e-cig china and bestecig china its yer credit card..

"we have sent your packaging from HK EMS, tracking no".. thats bestecig with the 27 dollar express option.. they seem quick to dispatch and i expect to get mine in about seven days..

with none express i dont know.. DX are lightening speed but they are in kong kong.. express takes longer than DX free air mail.. i doubt others will be as quick thow..

That's exactly it! He doesn't want to change. I bought him the e-cig purely as a gimmick and it was me who ended up smoking it :D

But we'll see if the weather gets worse and colder and he has to work long hours in the office :evil:
