I'm sure there will be people along to recommend better tobacco flavors; when I started vaping, I really just wanted something that tasted like smoking a Marlboro Light- and that doesn't exist. There are, however, lots of interesting tobacco flavors out there to try if you like them (I don't so far).
Once you wrap your head around the idea that vaping is
not going to be like smoking was in many ways, you'll find it much more rewarding in its own right. Don't limit yourself to one or two juices, try lots of different flavor profiles, keep your tastebuds guessing and they won't get bored and go dead on you. If everything you vape has strong vanilla notes, eventually you won't be able to taste vanilla, so make sure you vary your choices.
A few fun juice vendors with fairly strong flavors to try out are
ECBlends and
Ms T's Bakery. While I really love Ms T, she may not be the best choice for you right this minute because her waiting list tends to delay orders for 4 to 10 days before they are shipped. ECBlends has great prices, strong flavors (you can add extra flavor, even create your own blends), and lots to choose from, and they ship really quickly, too.
For a simple, trouble free PV with lots of flexibility that
I found to be a godsend when my first cheapo kit batteries started to die, I suggest a
Lea Kross, with Lea atties to go with it. The vendor I buy from,
Whitestagvapor.com is terrific, has great customer service, answers all your questions thoroughly and promptly, and delivers top quality products. Shipping is cheap and fast, too.
Everyone else will be suggesting an eGo or a kGo (the kGo sounds better to me, I hear all kinds of irritating problems related to eGos, except the twist, which so far, everybody loves), and then someone will come in and tell you that you must have a Provari and ten other people will nod sagely and convince you that you need one and then you'll cry when you see how much it's going to cost. Don't worry- you really can be happy without a Provari... for now.
