How to explore e liquids

[BlaseWithVicarious]

I know some sites have eliquid sample packs but I like to be surprised with flavors. There's some flavors I have yet to try mainly because I'm unsure to spend out money for bottle and end up never using them. They should make little 5ml bottles for testing maybe even smaller. I like to tell the chef to give me his best and I'm never let down with randomness. Is there any venders or DIYs who want to have other peoples view points. My local B&M shop guy makes eliquid and when he comes up with a new unique flavor I'll test it out for him. Anyone else know of anything similar to this?

I refuse to buy e juice online for exactly that reason. For example, I've had some apple flavors that I love, and some that taste like licking a dirty sock. I won't buy juice before tasting it first so I go into my favorite B&M (who happens to make a ton of their own flavors) and taste a lot of flavors until I find one that realllllly works for me.

I think using unflavored and experimenting with different ratios of pg to vg ends up being very usefull;
some mixes will work well in one clearo and power setup, but on another setup you'd want a different mix.

vendors either "advertise" this in the suppliers forum… or they ask people/customers who they've come to know… through developing relationships.

there is a bit of a learning curve when it comes to finding stuff you like…

My advice is to not be a flavor chaser - in other words… not to set your expectations too high.

Good performance of a liquid is crucial for me…

The biggest help to me early on and even now is identifying WHO on ecf has taste similar to mine… keeps me from wasting too much $

Due to all the variables in juice ingredients & juice recipes (and even aging/steeping), unfortunately there's no huge short-cut.

Not to mention the somewhat subjectiveness of it all.


I recall seeing a few sample sizes as small as 3ml & even 1ml.

Some juice-makers also throw in a free sample of another flavor with your order.


ECF has been a good help for me.


Some trial & error, as well as a few bucks down the drain, is inevitable in this game.

But once you get past that learning curve, things can get real good!

you can get small samples of things for 1.50 each at eliquidsamples.com

Thanks I've been vaping for awhile and rebuilding my typical liking is cherry and icy (not menthol) and soda flavors . I'm just curious on explaining new flavors. Tell me guys what's your all day vape?

I'm in the same sort of boat.... haven't quite figured out how to "taste" more than one thing in a shop really. I don't want to go throwing random stuff in a tank. If i don't like it, it's all up in my wick at that point .

I'm all over the place for my ADVs, today was bananas gone nuts, Tomorrow will be strawberries and cream, had some chocolate mint, and caramel mocha over the past few days. If I change it up each day I won't get bogged down on the same flavor I think.

Still searching!


Not that I don't have some favorites.. those include some fruits, tobaccos, sodas & desserts..


Closest that I've gotten to an ADV so far?

Gorilla Juice, by Alien Visions... great tobacco with a bit of banana
