Hello everyone,
I’ve been vaping for about eight months now and I am very very close to quitting smoking cigarettes. In fact I haven’t had one yet today. I must say it has been a long journey so far. I am just now starting to taste a little bit of the e-juice which has been very frustrating to say the least especially when I have friends hit my mod and say how great it tastes. I’m currently using an ijoy captain pd270 and have two tanks. A Freemax Fireluke mesh and a Smok baby V2. Look forward to continuing to read post as this has helped with some of my questions.

Hello and welcome to ECF. Don't worry your taste buds will recover soon.

Thanks.
I sure hope so. I’ve thrown a lot of $ at different juices trying to find at least one that would give me some sort of flavor. The only one I have found and it worked but not something I could vape all day is
LEMONOMENON from Nomenom
But nothing else has worked.

Try Vampire Vape Heisenberg if you can get it. I guarantee you'll taste that. Until you can taste other juices stick to menthol flavours if you can or strong fruit flavours, lemon, lime, orange etc. Watermelon & strawberry is good too.

It took me years to be able to appreciate flavors. Stick with simple fruit and mint. Grape, pear, watermelon, banana, bubblegum.

Thanks. I did purchase a bottle of straight menthol and I do get that good hit which has helped with the cigarettes. I just can’t wait until I get the real experience. I can smell the vapor and am dying to taste what I’m smelling.

Welcome. Once you give up cigarettes for good then the taste buds will return. Smoking dulls our sense of taste and smell. Once thats done you will find that most commercial ejuice is sickening sweet. But vendors know that when smokers are making the transition from smoking to vaping high flavor is what is needed for them to taste it.

And when Sugar_and_Spice says something is too sweet...

Drink lots of water too. That seems to help.

Hello and welcome.

Sounds like you're off to a good start!

Hello and congrats on your progress! When I started lemon, chai tea, or coffee juices are were what I could taste better. Zeus E Juice clicked for me then.

Thanks for the support. Having a vape of Okami Haute Mocha right now and the flavor is a bit better than yesterday. No cigs yesterday and off to a good start today.

Welcome and glad you joined.
After years of smoking my taste buds are not as sensitive when I first started smoking, we all are different. Please hang in there and your taste buds are more than likely to improve. Might like to read :
Section 1: Medical symptoms of tobacco cessation
A list of symptoms when quitting tobacco and changing to an ecigarette
" Vaper's Tongue
Many vapers report that all e-liquids lose their flavor for a period. Another factor is the change in taste perception, mainly a loss of taste, caused by smoking, together with its return after tobacco cessation, followed by a period experienced by many when taste goes dead for a time during the first few months off cigarettes, even for those who have not used menthol. Vaper's Tongue soon passes. Some people give advice in how to speed up the return of taste, which can include methods such as vaping unflavored refills, using specific mouthwashes, and so on; but the sense of taste soon returns whatever is done or not done.

I did purchase a bottle of straight menthol

V6. 'Menthol Mouth'
It is reported that the use of large amounts of menthol-containing e-liquids can result in the deadening of taste for a period, with the result that all refills become tasteless for a while or until menthol use is reduced or ceased. Cinnamon is also implicated."

I have some lemon/strawberry juice that I add to other flavors and it seems to "brighten" them up. I also agree that some juices smell great, but don't taste that good. I haven't tried very many, but right now I like custard. Sip on water during vaping... also helps prevent dry mouth from the vape juice. Hang in there, it's not easy getting off the cigs. If you break down it's OK. Make sure your juice has enough nicotine. I started with 18mg and now good with 12mg. Got some 6mg juices from a "sample box" so I just add 18mg tobacco flavor to end up at 12mg. There are some really good tobacco flavors but expensive.
