Helping a newby

[BiXLL]

Do to major health problems a good friend of mine is finally ready to give vaping a try to get off analogs. I have a mixture of different juices I vape, but to keep him going at least at the start I am looking for a recommendation on a juice that will come close to then Marlboro Reds he has smoked for many years. Can anybody help me out?

Halo Freedom is a pretty good match... but I'd also have a little fruit... like watermelon or apple... and maybe a cinnamon danish swirl type flavor as well... if you vape too, then you remember how we all wanted that cigarette flavor at first - but it's nice to mix it up....

for the cigarette juice, I'd stick with something tank friendly and something like a lab juice like halo, vapor station, good e juice lab, tw red label, joyetech, hangsten,dekang etc...

I recently received a bottle of the American Tobacco flavor from Mt. Baker...and I hate it. I've seen it compared to Camels and Marlboro reds. I'd be more than happy to send it to someone who *might* like it, rather than let it sit on my shelf collecting dust! If there's any way I can help out a newbie and gain some good karma points, I'm all for it!

I've never found one that tested quite like a cigarette... But have tried all of halo's non menthol tobacco flavors. A lot of people like the longhorn and freedom juice... I find a sweetness in these that was too rich for my taste buds. I found their torque to be close to an analog as well... And their Turkish tobacco flavor was a good dry taste like an analog.

I smoked Marlboro red for over 30 years. When I first started vaping I chased that unicorn of a juice. Introduce hIm do something fruity, something sweet like a cramel, and something from the tobacco lines like an ry4. Don't introduce him to something that says it tastes like a cigarette blaaah.

I think we all thought that the preferred brand of cigarette we smoked tasted good. I believe that is just what our bodies told us because that is how we got our drug fix.

The reason I am experience success now is two fold. One, the quality of the hit has improved so much since the last time I vaped years ago. Two, because I was able to get that strong hit from flavors that are actually tasty and when I tried to smoke (yes I did) I tasted it in a new light, and it was very bad. I do still like the smell of a burning cigarette BUT HATE the linger or an ashtray.

I recommend another real world flavor that the likes other than tobacco in a strong nic level with a strong throat hit. Cigarette smoke seems wimpy to me now. A real why bother.

Edit: Basically I think it important to break the association one has with the cigarette and it's taste for his nicotine needs.

Agreed. I moved on from trying to find a tobacco flavor to looking for a flavor that was neutral enough I could vape it all day, no matter what I was eating or drinking... Like a cigarette. My ADV is technically a tobacco flavor, but it doesn't taste like a smoke... And I probably wouldn't want it to.
