I can't taste any E-liquids for the life of me!

[3ebmike]

Everyday time I go to buy a new flavor I can barely taste it, I can only taste it if I drip it.. or use it in the SMOK TFV4 tank, even then I can barely taste it on the RDA's or my favorite tank of all time. Yesterday I picked up two bottles of E-juice. I picked up Mega Melons by Cuttwood, which I can taste faintly and taste like honeydew, definitely a nice tasting liquid. I then picked another bottle, this time Unicorn Pule by Lost Art after hearing all the good reviews about.. dripped it and could barely taste a damn thing.. I think I have a bad case of vapors tongue. I ordered from Vape Wild and ordered some juices and I got the flavor booster option and the only one I could really taste was the fruit loops and boy was it amazing at first, blew any other fruit loop/cereal flavor out of the water. Now for the past two weeks I've been vaping on different Vape Wild flavor with Flavor boosts, I'm thinking this maybe caused me to be desensitized to the flavor anything not very strong. So my questions to you guys is, first of.. Do you guys have any flavors that you enjoy that are particularly powerful and I can actually taste? Secondly, How do I kind of "reset" my flavor buds so I can enjoy the taste of vaping again! That was one of my favorite parts of it and now I feel like I'm like blowing out vapor that I can barely taste!

Want to "reset" your taste buds? Eat some Gari. It's a Japanese pickled ginger. It's usually given to you with sushi, purpose is that its a pallet cleanser. I've been vaping just over a year now but I've been eating Gari everyday for a long time. It also has oral health benefits in keeping your mouth clean. I've never had vapers tongue and even if I vape blueberry pom(my favorite to DIY) all day everyday for a week, I can still taste it like I just started vaping.

Nicoticket, especially after steeping. Wakonda is so strong I'm thinking of cutting it some with some pg/vg. Now that I'm a year and a half in, a lot of my NT flavors seem kind of overpowering. And I have most of them in tootle setups. I think if I put them in a high power setup, I might croak, lol!

I've been thinking and doing the exact same thing, 1/4 NT - 3/4 50/50 Unflavored has been working great for me. Still get great flavor from it and my bottles of Virus last forever. Sorry for the slight deviance from the OP.

I got to where everything tasted pretty much the same, and nothing tasted like it was supposed to. I switched to unflavored for a couple of days to give my senses a break, then added a little flavoring. Much to my surprise, the tiny bit of flavoring, I could taste it, and it tasted like it was supposed to. I now use a fraction of the flavoring I used to, and taste and enjoy it much more.

eekins, where do you buy the Gari?

You can also try a mint or menthol that helps me sometimes.

And some flavors taste really awesome with a little mint in them, a little bit goes a long way a few drops in a 15ml bottle of my favorite watermelon is good for me

Black Jack which is a sort of aniseed flavor is really good. Might be called something else in the USA. Really good flavor and tastes good to the last drop.
Vape on.

Specialty, or Asian markets is where I get mine, you can make it yourself as well.
