I just received my Kanger Evod in today. This Is my first experience with an e-cigarette, besides the disposable ones.I also received two 15ml bottles of ejuice. One bottle is "USA Blend tobacco E juice Baker Vapor" and the other is "[FONT=PT Sans, sans-serif]RY4 E Juice Baker Vapor". My question is, why do both taste/smell like syrup? I mean it smells like i have a maple scented plug in air freshener in my house.I bought different types but they both taste/smell like syrup. Its driving me crazy. I had to empty the reservoirs out and run water through the tanks to get the taste out. Any suggestions as to why its doing this.? I do not want any fruit, coffee, or syrup type. Thanks[/FONT]

tobacco is a hard flavor to nail. i havent found a tobacco flavor that i really liked yet. best bet would be to try and find a local vape shop and sit down and try their flavors. even the fruit and coffee flavors. i didnt think that i would like fruit flavors at first but they are some of my favorites. good luck and im sorry you dont like your flavors.

Well, I have juice that taste like apple pie, banana nut bread, licorice, Cappuccino, Mary J, Cavendish, whiskey, and some flavors I haven't tried yet. Not all juice is going to please everyone. And the longer you vape, ones taste and preferences usually change. Most go in search of a juice that taste just like their camel, Marlboro, or Newport menthol. Most never find it. I did accidently make a recipe that tasted just like a camel straight. Was trying for a Vanilla latte. It blew my mind. But, I have discovered that I do not appreciate that flavor no more, so didn't make another batch, and didn't save that recipe.

Finding what juice flavors one likes, in what VG/PG ratio and nic level on prefers, and from which vendor, is probably one of the hardest things to do. What I prefer may totally disgust you. My favorite ADV is Captain Blacks Cinnful Danish Tobacco. Freaking awesome vape. But you can't find it anywhere, nobody sells it. Why? Because I DIY juice. Grew tired of playing Juice Roulette, and started making my own. I can customize my own juices and tailor them to my taste.

Try a sample pack from several vendors, find what you like best. Change up the VG/PG ratio and nic level, till you find your zone. MBV does have some flavors that I like, they also have some that I have flushed down the toilet, even after seeping for a month or two. The empty bottles were more valuable to me that the crap juice that I'd never vape.

Keep in mind that what you like today, may not please you in a few months. When our taste buds begin to recover, and we can taste and smell things that we haven't for awhile, our preferences can change. That is why we often hear, Why does xyz juice taste like crap now, the batch I bought last month was fantastic, now it taste like poo poo. Well, the juice didn't change, our taste changed.

Good luck on your search, and welcome to the forum

Vape long and Prosper.
 
I know I am still a newbie but I had the same problem. My first 2 juices were Classic Tobacco & American Standard by VapeDudes. When they first arrived in the mail they both smelled massively like maple syrup. I filled two clearomizers and then quickly unfilled both. It made me feel like I was drinking syrup so badly I couldn't even take the smell anymore. They have both been steeping in a dark closet for almost a month (after keeping the cover off for 2 days and shaking every two days). Two days ago I decided to unearth them (while waiting for my Heather's Heavenly Vapes package to arrive) and they both still smell like syrup. The American standard only had less of a scent so I decided to try it again & it still tasted like maple syrup!.. So I am not sure if they are always going to have a maple syrup taste to them but, after a month they didn't seem to lose much of the maple taste. Maybe in another month or so I will try them again but, right now I am in LOVE with HHV Legend, Heavenly T & Dark Horse! They all taste very close to my Marlboro Lights without any maple syrup taste.
