I'm new to whole E-Cig scene and was wondering how long it took you guys to find your favorite juice flavor. I've been tinkering around with various juices and have yet to find an all day vape. I'll fall in love with a juice initially but find something about it that keeps it from being a go to all day vape. I love some of the richer blends of Coffee, Hazlenut, Caramel, and Chocolate but I can't vape stuff like that all day. I'm trying fruitier lighter flavors but I'm still searching. I work outdoors and spend a lot of time driving a company vehicle. I'd love to find a juice I could vape all day. It would be convenient to just have one tank and battery to carry to work. Any of you guys still on the vape juice hunt?

I found my all day vape pretty quickly. I have changed it several times, but its basically the same flavor with different vendors. Currently it's Extreme Ice from Mt Baker. (Was Ice Ice from Vape Dudes, Smooththol from NicQuid, and Minthol from Mad Vapes, etc) I am always still on the hunt for new liquids, and I keep a few clearo's filled with alternate flavors to to change up on my taste buds, or for specific times of the day. For example, I use a coffee or mocha flavor first thing in the morning, and usually use a citrus or strawberry flavor around lunch time. I find that there are plenty of flavors that I really like as long as I use them sparingly instead of over using them. I have a feeling that the vape juice hunt is a never ending hunt. :) As long as people come up with new flavors, I will still be on the hunt.

It took me 6 months to find a flavor that would let me 100% quit combustibles, but I found an OK flavor within 2 months. I started by getting some flavor samples, vaping the ones I liked best (and that SURE changed fast!) My original least-favorite flavor was a favorite after 2 months. But I started REALLY slow, with gas-station e-cigs, which were nasty at the time, they are better now. Then Blu disposable, then Smokeless Image.

Then I started posting on e-juice threads saying "My favorite flavor so far is XXXXX, what might I like better?" and got some ideas where to order samples from. That's how I found my all-day-vape. But during the "hunt" I was still getting better and better at finding juices I like, so I was getting happier and happier.

Also, going to Variable Voltage improved the flavor a lot because I could tweak my e-cig to make the most of any one flavor, and to account for aging of the atomizers and wicks, and time-of-day changes due to temperature and air pressure.

I started out by mixing together whole bunches of stuff and I ended up with a honey-like RY4 with green apple. I then found Midnight Apple which is a bit like tobacco+apple, only better. The flavour is best as a warm vape, so I found I have to vape it from my kanger T2 on a standard ego. I also like adding 4 drops of melon juice to 2ml of this stuff, it's pretty awesome as it adds a bit more sweetness. I've been vaping it for 2 weeks and already ran out of the 30ml I bought.
If you like a RY4 sort of thing but can't find it, avoid mixing tobacco with caramel juices as these flavours don't always mix nicely! Adding a tiny bit of menthol with fruit+tobacco mixes is actually nicer than you'd think. The trick to finding the ideal juice is mixing some things up yourself. I think more complex juices make better all-day vapes, given they're not overpowering.
If you want some interesting premixed things try these guys out: Halo, Vapist's Vapours, Mt Baker Vapor, Rawr Vapor
(Yes, I am sad I don't live in the USA and pay a small fortune to ship these)

*edit*
Just came across these guys: goodlifevapor. They got my next order!

when you find it please let me know! (taste is subjective, only kidding) I am a little over 4 weeks in, I have at least 10 orders behind me and more than 70+ different juices. Probably a mistake because they all seem to blend together. It is disappointing to hear "6 months....", " my least favorite became my best...." Now, you are going to drive me crazy!! It is a good thing that the act of vaping is so enjoyable!!
 
Hey man. I still buy various different flavours. My all day vape though is menthol. Get a great th with it, flavour never fades, and it cleans my palate when other flavours get dull. A lot of the time i alternate between menthol and a naturally extracted tobacco flavoured fluid called "old holborn" which tastes like the smell of the tobacco i used to smoke. Hope this answers your question my rock n roll brother !.

It took me a few weeks and a lot of orders (no B & M near me that I know off, have to order all my juice online). Once I found what I liked it made the search much simpler, right now my go too's are Boba's Bounty and ECBlend Hopscotch and Butterscotch. I have a bunch of new flavors coming in the mail that I am anxious to try, I don't think the search will ever be over, I want to try every juice out there! lol

Still looken. Before I went with mods I would just buy the most tolerable juice with a company. Got my Vamo/vivi and a world of flava opened up. Mt Baker is serving up the love, hubby and I have a few with them. Waiting for my AiV stuff and tried about 6 different companies that I was like meh with...

I'm new to this but very lucky that it only took me a couple of tries - I realized right away that the sweet ones were too sweet for me and I knew from trying a disposable one a while ago that though I never smoked menthol cigs, I liked the minty taste when vaping. Through recommendations here, I tried a few juices from Heather's Heavenly Vapes and found Peppermint Blast - perfect for me and haven't smoked a cig since. I do play around with some different flavors at night, just to keep experimenting but Peppermint Blast is my ADV. :) Good luck!!

(ps: Did you check out the juice awards - that might help you with some things to try...?

You want an all day vape? Just vape something all day and forget about trying all the other great flavors put there. It seems like any time I put an order in for my favorites, the vendor will slide me a sample of something new that I love. I'm good with that. I just am happy that I like more flavors than I hate. If I didn't, I'd still be smoking. :vapor:

I recently ordered Hawaiin Sunrise from RAWR and find it to be light enough to vape all day. However, I have a few tanks and rotate out between that, a vanilla custard, and Strawberry Cantaloupe every few hours to keep it interesting.

I personally am still looking however I like to switch things up a lot so I may never find "the one". What i like to do is stick with fruits so that I can mix them with no real ill effect on the flavor. I'm not a flavor purest and this way I don't need to carry multiple tanks with me. I find doing so to be to messy for my taste.

It took me one order, but if it hadn't been for that freebie sample, I would have never in a million years found it. Butter Pecan from Mt Baker Vapor! I'm not a sweets person, so I never would have ordered Butter Pecan. Now it's my go-to. Good luck in your quest!

Actually this post reminded me that I got some Butter Rum from ECBlend that I was pretty happy to vape on for a few days strait and my wife loved the smell. She said it smelled like cupcakes, that's a good thing as I've had a few she couldn't stand.
