I am tired of all the NEGITIVE publicity on DeKang!

Many new esmokers are being turned away from Dekang for I feel only patriotic reasons. Which really is foolish because all the 5102-Leos-901s etc are made in CHINA! So is near all electronic devises these days!
Dekang is the richest ejuice company in the world! They have professional tasters, chemist, a extremely clean factory, highly supervised.
Price is right
I have tried US Juices.. they are just 2-3 times more expensive then Dekangs. And most Dekangs can be mixed to make the same juice! for example a bottle of 15 ml ejuice from MsT Bakery is like $11.50. At that price one can buy 50 ml of a DK ejuice!
Taste
The taste of DK is very good. I have had over 30+ different flavors of DK. most all are spot on to what they claim to taste like. Some are excellent flavors like 555, Blueberry, vanilla, and Cigar.
Mix
What I have found is DK mixes well for a greater taste. You can mix Tobacco with Rum of DK and and call it Blackbeards Escape and put a made in the USA label on it, and sell it for 3X more $$, and people will rave about it!
Bottom Line
Stop putting Dekang down! This is people hard earned money, Dekang is quality!

The biggest issues with Dekang in my experience are consistency and in my case lack of what I want. They aren't horrible on some flavors but they lack on the large scale which is why people recommend something other than DK.

Last year alot of us got something labeled as Caramel and tasted like pina colada... that was a nasty surprise ( I HATE pina colada and pineapple flavors!)

They had some other flavor mix up's as well, no idea if it was ever corrected or not, at the time vendors tried to tell them and they received the reply of that's Caramel and it should be that way, end of arguments. /facepalm

They had more flavors change this year i.e RY4 and 555. Totally different from what they used to be.

Lastly I have to have VG in low to no nic.. it's hard to come by in DK ( I know of 1 vendor) and frankly all but 1 VG flavor version was nasty and didn't compare to their pg counterpart. US made I can get what I want , exactly how I want it.
My flavor's I've gotten have been consistent and the pricing isn't that much more than the DK which I may or may get the same version the next time I order :facepalm:

I am no fan of Dekang, but truthfully, with US vendors it's a crap shoot if you will get a flavor that is the flavor you ordered as well.

I have primarily vaped DeKang liquid. And I agree that some on here bash DeKang out of some absurd "it must be US made" liquid. However, DeKang liquid changed some of their most popular flavors this year which turned many of us off. I believe that was due to several of their top people leaving and starting another group in China. I now mostly vape the "new" companies e-liquid.

This is true also... I remember Rath-gate lol

I was thinking and honestly I think it comes down to flavor preference ( US has flavors that DK simply doesn't have like waffle that is super popular)
People are simply going with flavors they like.
US also offers customization 70-30 , 80-20% etc mixes where DK it's all pg , vg is only if your lucky to find it.

I prefer Dekang Juices myself. I started with Dekang Juices then tried US Juices, and returned back to the Dekang. The prices are great, and the Tobaccos are my favorite. The tobaccos are very easy to DIY and add flavors to. I usually purchase 24m and cut it down with a little vg and add a few different flavors in small batches and have had great success....

I purchased 2 of Dekang's juices from madvapes. I don't mind vaping them alone. I don't much care for the fact that they are all PG but I can live with it. I bought tobacco and RY4. I found that the tobacco is great to mix other flavors with. I have a bottle of 555 from FSUSA (120ml) that is double flavor that I love but vaped it to the point that I'm burned out. I mixed half of the 555 with the tobacco and blammmm...back in business. The tobacco gave the powerful 555 a new twist and I love it again. I will be ordering more of it. As far as RY4, I haven't tried it yet. I'm letting it sit with the cap off for a couple of days as I seem to think it gets rid of the chemical taste that alot of people complain about. You can't beat the price if you can vape straight PG. 50ml for 10.99 at madvapes is one heck of a deal.

You MUST have disturbed taste buds cause all DK I tried have been A+. Instead of throwing them away why not mix them up some..Some of the best flavors I ever got from DK I mixed.

Lately, I've been using Dekang all day, every day. I like it a lot, but there's no law that says everyone else has to like it as well.
I think the reasons for the negativity towards Dekang go much deeper than just patriotism, but that's a can of worms that I ain't going to open. As long as Dekang is still available, I'm happy. Does it really make any difference if someone bashes the juice that you like? As long as you like it, that's all that matters.

I must have disturbed taste buds too. Some of the worst juice I've ever tried has been Dekang, because of the perfumed taste. This is like arguing about if someone dislikes spinach or eggplant, it's all a matter of taste.

I'm curious, have you ever tried any Ms.T's, Tasty Vapor or Backwoods Brew? You would understand better if you had tried some of the premium US juice. The difference is like going to McDonalds compared to a five star restaurant, LOL.

I don't care where the juice is made, as long as it is safely made and tastes good.

I started vaping with Dekang juices and they have the best tobacco ejuice I've ever tried.

I would agree it's just an individual preference in what someone likes to vape. Some people get a perfumey or chemical taste from Dekang -I never have. I've tried many US made ejuices and still think Dekang has the best tobacco flavor.

I liked Dekang at first, then they do get a perfume taste that to me gets more and more noticable to me the more I vape it. And all the lead painted toys coming from china don't help the argument much for me (I'm sure there's not but hey). But dekangs flavor doesn't compare to tasty vapor or freedom smoke USAs flavor. And if you order a 2 oz doubler from TV and mix you get 90 ml of PREMIUM shipped for $30 and $25 if it's the flavor of the week, and Geoff makes some amazing stuff! TV Boston cream pie, cherry cola, and atomic cinnicide all day!!! FSUSAs purecig, thin mint, and hypnotic mist are also amazing, purecig actually taste like a burning cigarette which gets me through the want of an analog flavor with my coffee or when I'm not in the mood for something sweet.
