How many of you quickly switched to other flavors as your main vape and how many have stuck with tobacco flavors?

Tobacco vapes remain my go-to flavors after nine months. I started with typical Dekang Chinese tobaccos, vaped those for awhile, and along the way started trying all sorts of fruit and dessert juices. Didn't like the artificiality of most of them, and even the ones I liked didn't satisfy me for long. Along the way, I discovered the relatively small but growing number of vendors who use natural tobacco flavorings from their own in-house macerated extractions, and those are my current standard.

The lines get blurry in mixed blends, however. For instance, I combine backwoods brew Hunter's Blend with want2vape Crème Brûlée, and vaperite Organic Tobacco with bwb Malty Toffee.

Finally, all these flavors are just candy for the brain.

vaping tobacco flavors bears no more resemblance to smoking than vaping chocolate fudge brownie e-liquid resembles eating a brownie. Which is to say, almost none.

I think I started ordering dessert and coffee flavors after about 3 days of vaping something that was supposed to taste like tobacco but didn't. In the past 2-1/2 months I've tried probably 75 different flavors and have never once even thought to try a tobacco flavor ever again.

Good luck on your paper!!!

When I bought my first pv, I bought Vanilla and RY4 (simply because the lady said RY4 was like caramel). The only tobacco flavor that I smoke regularly is French Pipe. The French Pipe I have reminds me of a milk shake or sweetened milk. So I started out with non-tobacco flavors and that's what I am sticking with. I wont buy a tobacco flavor, unless its French Pipe.
 
I started w/ vanilla. my thinking was tobacco flavor would be like stopping a hamburger addition w/ boca burgers.plus, i think we associate the smoking pleasure w/ the taste of tobacco even though i don't think at first drag, if we had the option of flavors we would have chose tobacco flavor. I mean there isn't tobacco flavored ice cream or candy.
I switched to menthol and peppermint. and now mix my own non-nic amaretto, blueberry, blueberry-cheesecake, etc. I have between 2 or 3 pv's ready with different flavors. I think 25 would be overkill for me, but 20 would be good. If i could get the flavors stronger, i'd switch from menthol.

I actually started with bakery flavors and moved on to tobacco. Though the tobacco flavors I vape taste nothing even remotely like a cigarette, they provide me a satisfaction and pleasure that the straight sweets do not. I'm not much for the straight tobacco flavors, I tend to gravitate toward tobacco with undertones like cocoa, fruits and vanilla.

I started with tobacco flavors, though none of them actually taste liker any tobacco I’ve ever tried. I never smoked menthols and didn’t/don’t like mint. Still don’t. I’ve sampled a wide variety of flavors but still keep coming back to Marlboro, Camel, 555, RY4, and flue cured tobacco. I have yet to try a juice that actually really “tastes” like tobacco. But whatever the tobacco juices taste like … I like them.

I’ve found a drop or two of mint in my tobacco carto every now and then is interesting. But on the whole … the fruit, candy, and baked goods flavors I’ve tried are too weird for an all day vape. What I do like lately in a 3ml Go-cart is: 1ml Camel, 1ml RY4, and 1ml Marlboro or 555. 100% PG and all tobacco all the time.

My All-day vapes are currently Wyatt Earp, RY5 and Tarimisu from Freedomsmokeusa.com.
Mostly, I like caramels, vanillas, chocolates and smooth mixtures of each, especially coffee flavors.
Cigarettes sort of had that smooth flavor to them in the first place, the sweet savory sort of taste of each sort of just compliments what I originally enjoyed about cigs.

I'm another one that doesn't care much for the fruit, dessert, mint or candy flavors.
My every day, all day vapes are versions of 555 and my DIY versions of Earl Grey tea.
One new flavor that I'm probably now hooked on is BWB Hazelnut.
I'm also thinking of trying a grape flavor when I put in another DIY order but since I keep picturing grape candy I don't have high hopes for it.
