Help the new kid find a juice

[amcdowell]

I agree with PoliticallyIncorrect...it all depends on taste buds...Me and my gf smoked marlboro reds and we started with 18mg cowboy. well, I think it weaker and she thinks it's stronger. after looking up how much nicotine was in the reds, it turns out the 18 mg is stronger than the actual cig. I'm prolly gonna try the 24 when I get the chance

Thanks for the warning! (Oh boy! Another thing to figure out.)

You mentioned in your first post that you were dripping and using clearomizers. Be careful with cinnamon flavors in a clearomizer. It may cause it to crack, or even melt. There's a thread that discusses this issue further, with an ongoing list of flavors that can cause problems.

Just to echo the sentiment you just have to keep trying. I'm just over a month in and have tried about 8 vendors looking for my adv. I have flavor ADD so I find it's best for me to pack up about 3 clearos with diff flavors and rotate throughout the day. Currently I have on rotation Ivapes Blackberry Lemonade, Fuzion Vapors Vacation, and TVRs Cinnamon Danish Swirl.

In case anyone is interested, over the last week I received about 20 sample bottles. Some are still steeping since it is hard to tell but what I found was interesting.

The tobacco's are mostly OK. One or two I like but some are just too harsh.

Cinnamon is not for me - wow, it is strong but too strong for me. I can see why some would like it though. Maybe after it mellows a bit.

What really surprised me is what I did like. I was ordering some liquor flavored ones and on a whim got a Brandy with blackberry. Now, blackberry is ok to me, this stuff just rocked me. I already have a 50ml on order. A french vanilla was also amazing so I have 30ml of that coming.

Anyway, thought I would let you all know since you were so helpful. Turns out just ordering a bunch of samples was a great idea at lest for me. The variety really helped me narrow in on what I do like. ECBlends.com, was a great way for me to do this. $2.50 for 4ml and they have a massive selection with customization. Price and variety made this a good choice. Now I know where to focus in.

Thanks!

My favorite is Vanilla bean ice cream from perfume apprentice. I make my own juice,but find steeping isnt necessary with this flavor. Just mix it and vape it. It also is good mixed with some orange for a creamsicle flavor.

Hey new kid, sorry I hadn't seen this thread or I would've responded sooner. I am glad you went through with it though. Congrats on finding more of what you are looking for!!!!

Hey nk, give Heather's Heavenly Vapes a try. I suggest their Purity Line of tobaccos. Gandalf, Pirate's Booty, Huntsman, and Dragon's Fire are all winners in my book. They have a really good sampler pack for $8 plus shipping. They come fully ready to vape and are immensely tasty. There is nothing overly sweet about them, though they have sweetness; there is also nothing smoky or ashy in the mix, though there is a presence of tobacco. They may get better with steeping but you may not find out because they tend to get vaped very quickly. I would also take their descriptions of the flavors with a grain of salt. They can come off sounding completely different from how they actually taste. I am not saying that their wrong in the way that they describe their flavors, but the juices have a very predominant quality that is not only beyond description, but also very unique and remarkably refreshing. If you would like to get extra tobacco extract you can--if you are so inclined to want a tad more depth (just ask for it in the notes). Also, when ordering bigger bottles, not the sampler, you can specify your own pg/vg ratio. I have no qualms or reservations with suggesting these offerings! heathersheavenlyvapes.com - Home

Obviously you may not like these (though I doubt it), but I am answering your question...which was laid out very thoughtfully. Good luck!

Thanks! I've looked at them before and I'll her on my short list to try! I'll try not to order an 100 though .

So, I have been vaping for a few weeks now. The one thing that is driving me crazy is finding a juice that I like. I know that it is purely subjective but I could really use some ideas.

Here is what I know based on what I have tried on my ego 510 with dripping and clearomizers.

Sweet Juices - fruits are ok. I like them. But they don't rock my socks. I have tried peach, watermelon, mixes, etc. from ejuicemonkeys (my first juices), Copper Creek, NLV and darth vape.

"hot juices" - I tried a few of the ones that seam popular, Bounty Hunter (NLV) and Cooper Creek House Blend. These are interesting, but they leave me flat with a lack of flavor.

Now, the one that I like so far is the NLV Gold. It's more tobacco, has a richer flavor and I really like it. Problem is it is so hard to get! I ordered a 10ml to try it and I have been dripping it. I am sure it would be better in the clearomizer. But NLV is holding orders and is apparently weeks behind in shipping. So even when I can order some it may be weeks to get it.

I have eyed BWB, Highbrow, Kickbass, and especially Mountain Oak tobacco lines. Maybe a 555 or RY4? There are so many choices I don't know where to start. I have over a dozen bottles now....

So, whats a newbie vapor to do? I would appreciate any ideas.


EDIT: I should have added that I have a few alcohol based flavors that I really like, one has vodka and another has rum. They just don't have any kick.

NLV is going live either tomorrow or Tuesday. I recommend mini jugs of Gold and at least a 30 ml. of Renegade. If you like tobacco flavors, you'd like Twilite, too.

It's always interesting to see how these things turn out. You made the right choice. A whole lotta samplers is the only way to go at this point.

Bear in mind your tastes will evolve, especially early on; your journey has just begun.

I went full circle, beginning with the gawdawful tobacco prefilled carts that fermented aboard container ships long before they got to me. Months of wanderlust followed, sampling all the froo-froo flavors (you know, the stuff that's conspiratorially designed to lure underage children into vaping). After peaking in my mental imbalance with FSUSA's Baby Back Ribs, I gravitated back home to tobacco, albeit a far higher caliber than where I'd started.

I've been watching for them to go live for several weeks.

Check out Vapedudes. They have good juice and first prices. There is a Facebook coupon "fbfree" which will give you 1 free 10ml bottle. Shipping included, they also have a 40% off your order coupon. You can combine them on the same order. If you purchase the 5 bottle sampler, and use the coupons, you can get 6, 10ml bottles for $18.

You already listed my all day vape (Kickbass vapor RY4) lol so I'll just say this. Have you tried different resistances on your battery? More vapor doesn't always mean more flavor. I use a few different attys on my Omega which run at around 4.1 volts fully charged, 1.5 1.7 and 2.o ohm coils. If a flavor is some what subdued in the 2 ohm I'll use the 1.7 and so on.

 

[buddylee]

Have yet to find a favorite myself. thanks for sharing that info Mroutlaw, I just ordered 4 - 10ml bottles for 8 bucks. Maybe one of those will hit the spot.

I am a newb vaper but obviously the juice is what makes or breaks these products. I am lucky enough to have an awesome brick and mortar shop (Vaporphoxxe) close to my home. Going in and trying ALOT of different flavors provided me three staples i love and a freedom from analogs i thought was never possible. Not only did sampling flavors allow me to continue to fall in love with vaping it saved me hundreds of dollars.

My suggestion would be to locate a brick and mortar shop where you can sample. If this isnt possible, i would look for companies that offer sample packs of juice. You may want to try sending some emails to juice makers and trying to describe best what you liked and/or disliked about the flavors. Personally, i believe brick and mortar shops are a necessity as is it wasn't for my local, i doubt id be vaping right now.....Literally right now......and.....right now.....and.....ok you get the point.

I wish you the best of luck in your journey.

I got a ton coming in right now, but I will put them on my short list they look great. I ordered some large bottles of ones I have liked so far so I need to slow down just a bit.

There are no shops within a few hundred miles. The closest ones I can find are in Chicago which is about 300 miles away. That is one frustrating thing for me and I am sure I am not alone.

Count yourself lucky my friend!
