Ok so I might seem very picky but here's my story.

Just started vaping within the last month (have an eGo) and I love it. Love it! I went on a shopping spree buying a few favorite flavors from different vendors to find out which vendor I liked the best. I have lot of nice flavors now, but I've run into a problem.

I love the rich sweet flavors. So much so that I'm now vaping more than I was smoking. So on my recent purchases I lowered my nicotine amount so that I can actually enjoy the flavors without getting too wired. (ie: 1 a.m. - no sleep, drooling over my pv and my savory vanilla flavor)

But although I love the flavors I have, they are becoming something different from smoking now. Smoking is smoking, and vaping is vaping. So now I'm starting to run back to analogs when I want a "real" smoke. I wasn't doing that when I first started vaping. I want to throw the analogs away for good.

So I figure I need some good tobacco flavors. I bought a bunch of tobacco type flavors for my fiance (who is quitting with me) .. and I tried those, but they just don't taste right.

So, now I figure I need something "tobacco with a flavor" ... but without the sweetness for an all day vape. I guess what I'm saying is I'd love to find a tobacco flavor with a hint of almond ... but without the sweetness. (Or other flavors without the sweetness.) Yet I'm afraid I'll end up with a lot of pipe/cigar tasting flavors ... and that's not really what I want.

Does anyone out there know what I mean, or am I just being too picky and need to shut up. lol

If you do know what I mean could you suggest a tobacco with flavor but less sweetness? Maybe a type of mix at GV that you've used, or ... heck any suggestions you may have.

I woke up this morning to almonds and cream from DFW and it was so creamy and delicious I had to run outside and smoke a Marlboro ... and then put the marlboro out because it tasted bad.

I understand exactly what you mean lol. I would recommend raising the nic level back up a bit. I have several tobacco flavors and several other flavors I enjoy. I alternate between several flavors during the day and I have managed to stay tobacco free. Hope you find that right combo, good luck.

Yay I'm not psycho or hormonal! lol

You may be right about the nic level ... Hmmm.

Try some Boba's Bounty over @ AVEJUICE.COM it may solve your issue

Ok. I'll go check it out now. I haven't tried that vendor yet either, so would you have any other suggestions of juices I could buy from there as well? I'm still collecting smaller bottles or samples just for the sake of trying them out.

And thank you.
 
I straight up could not stay analog-free if I didn't have some powerful hits from my juice that remind me a LOT of a cigarette. Not sweet, juicy, fruity, or foofy, just good, with a nice wallop. I use juices mainly from Nhaler.com (see their forum here). The best in my opinion is their Camel flavor -- (labelled "Camule" to keep the copyright people happy). It is hard hitting but without any weird or off taste. I, like you, do NOT want my cig-flavored juice to taste of cigar. Gah. Camule, Kent, and USA mix (Marlb. flavor) are all excellent flavors. They are in 24 mg only. Hit that enough and I guarantee you'll forget all about cigarettes. It's also pretty good to buy a low resistance atomizer and a drip tip. Try some of those juices in it. You will never want a cigarette after that hit! Keep up the good work, you'll find your perfect spot!

Well if you want the analog taste or experience you're just not going to get it with juice. Glad for that myself. But other than raising the nic level to combat the craving, I can't recommend a juice because it just won't exist.
Tobacco flavor wise, I have some American Spirit from FSUSA that I really like, but it's like a sweet-ish pipe or cigar flavor, not so much like a cigarette.

When I go into sugar overload, and need to switch to a non-sweet vape, I use Maiden Coffee from Gourmet Vapors. It's like a strong cup of black coffee with a nutty but almost bitter taste. It's strange that i love this flavor so much because I never drink black coffee. Go figure!

It could easily be my all day flavor except that the chocolate keeps calling my name. Oh, and I ordered it in triple flavor strength so it defo has a kick.:p

I believe that most people crave different tastes in food (sweet, salty, bitter, fruity, ect) so it makes sense that your vaping habits would be similar. It boggles the mind that we would crave burning plants, chemicals and paper flavor (cigs) but we did. That's the smell I'm trying to get rid of in my life, so really don't feel the need to replicate it in my new vaping world.

I did order bacon flavor (going for salty!) but it hasn't arrived yet. I can't wait to try it.

I really suggest trying Backwoodsbrew . net.
The tobacco is excellent and the flavors are mellow. I recommend Malty Toffee and Honey Flue Nut for you.

I also love velvetvapors . com - Vanilla Almond Tobacco.

When I want them sickly flavored, I add Vanilla/Almond/Caramel etc. flavorings to the above-mentioned tobaccos.
