I'm really glad to find this post, because I am having the same issue...Day 47 for me, and I can't taste flavors, except briefly, the first hit I take. Then, it's just about satisfying that nicotine craving. I soothe myself by saying," Well, your cigs didn't taste that great either & you sure didn't put them down" :facepalm: LOL, I hope it eventually gets better. I'm really jealous of those that can taste those great-sounding flavors

You might try the Cinnamon Roll from Mt. Baker Vapor. That is the first juice I could actually taste, and I was thrilled with it. I still like it and have reordered. Also, I can actually taste their Get Razzled, which is a mixed berry.

I think my taste buds are about as good as they're going to get, lol. I smoked heavily for over 40 years, poor things. I haven't noticed any difference in the taste of food since I stopped smoking either. Stuff tastes good, but it did before, too.

Liked what you said about the cigarettes. I've thought about that, too. And about having so many flavors of juice - I didn't have a bunch of different brands when I smoked. Just the same old tobacco, day after day.:D

Between myself and my wife our sample supply we got with our initial order ran out quickly. We went to a local mall and were allowed to test some flavors. We got some we liked and brought them home only to find out they didn't taste the same at all in our eComs. I went back and saw they had some sort of unit with a glass tank. I mostly taste plastic out of the eCom. I tried a buddies with a glass tank vs. my eCom and what a huge difference. I'm switching to glass!

Yeah I know what that's like. I bought a lot of flavors, especially ones I like, and I put a shot or two in my juices before I steep since flavor is important to me. Now that I have good rotation of juices going, there's always one ready for vaping when new ones are made or bought. It's takes trial and error for some ppl.

Know the feeling. Been vaping about 2 yrs now and occasionally flavors vanish (like lots of coffee related juices).
Have read/heard that sense smell is related to ability to taste so guess a runny nose or sinus problems could affect ability to taste.
After way too many years of cigs have very little smell sense any more. so always ask for extra flavor in ordered juices.
Many good tips here to help but think it gets down to that we are all different . . .

been away from forum a short bit. i didnt expect to come back to so many replies. cinnamon IS a hard flavor to miss. but i dont like cinnamon. wife loves it. she made me try it. i just picked up a triple watermelon flavor so hope that tastes good. as far as devices, im using a provari topped with an aspire nautilus. best two items ive found in this hobby/alternative. because of them i doubt its low quality coils or poor device performance as once mentioned. and the nautilus is a dual coil with adj. air flow and ive tried all of them for flavor. when im not using the nautilus i make my own coils with cotton wicks for what i consider to be good quality squape and kayfun clones. also have a real kayfun in the mail. the price of clones seem to be going up, its hard to not buy the real deal for a few bucks more. of the flavors ive got the ones i cant taste sit. maybe not opened but they sit. i do come back to them a few weeks later to see if they have improved. they dont. maybe a slow process but hopefully they my taste buds do come back online for these juices. as stated earlier, at least im not smoking and i do seem to be satisfied vaping. and i do seem to taste them better with the coffee sip first so that does just go to show how we are all different.

thank you all for the replies and ideas.
