Trying to find a quality, US-based e-juice supplier - also - tried to order from some of Grimm Green's recommended sites - but, everyone is sold out?! e-liquidplanet, which I hear has the best menthol EVER and I can't order it - says "out-of-stock". Tried to then order from HouseOfVapor - everything is sold out there too!

So, where does this leave me? Falling back to using dekang juice?

I found one flavor I really dig - Kamel from V4L -- but, at times, the juice doesn't hit like I like it and seems "soggier" from time to time - does anyone have a solid recommend on a similar, USA juice? I like this one in particular because of the spice/pepper flavor I get on exhale on a good vape, on a bad vape it tastes like moist strawberry. I like a moderate TH which I found I can control with the length of the drag on my kit -- but I don't like the hit that rasps your throat.

Can anyone give me a hint where I can find this flavor?

And can someone ease my concerns about USA e-liquid suppliers that seem to be reliably out-of-stock?

Vapor Renu is in California. Just a thought. Put them in a search. I like the flavors. However I am a menthol lover. So YMMV. Also please remember that taste is subjective no matter what. It is fair price as well. I have been vaping since July and have tried numerous vendors as well. Coupon codes exist for numerous vendors on this forum. You can do a search of vendors as well. I tried a camel type from Mister e-liquid and it was good. However, I usually like menthol.

Have you check the vendors forums yet?
Vaporite, BWB, Gourmet vapor etc.

Easy. Casablanca Blend from Backwoods and Turkish Tech from Digitalciggz.com. Flat out the two best Turkish tobacco juices you'll find.

Ok, Sir Vapenstein - I'm going to take you up on this one - I get the feeling you've been around! BTW, Backwoods is out-of-stock! Is it just that it's X-mas or is there a real shortage of e-juice now that e-cigs are really catching on?

I checked Gourmet Vapor already - I don't like the way the site is organized; wish they would seperate the user-designed mixes from the "tried and true" flavors. Too many options, too much to absorb. Interesting site concept though! Also, tried BWB, I don't think I'll be seeing their juice any time soon - seems always sold out. I guess this is a good sign - but, not good if I find a "like" and have to fight for supply. I'll check vaporite out...

Try

AVEjuice.com not a big selection but some of the best juice I have ever had

Just caught a few reviews of this juice and have some concerns -- faulty batches on our their main lines? Customer service not so hot? One guy moving shut the operation down? I don't know if these concerns were real or if they've been addressed - but, sounds a bit risky...

Try Janty RY4 my new favorite.

What does RY4 really taste like - this is certainly one flavor that has piqued my interest and it is certainly a flavor I will try soon. Sounds like a sweet caramel flavor. However, I'm on a quest for a spicy, kamel/gamel/kamol/camel/turkish blend/kml - I have tasted the future....!

I smoked lights when I was a smoker - and didn't know what I was missing with a full-flavored smoke - this spicy, peppery flavor is mouth watering - what I want to find now is consistency somewhat along the lines of "a taste of pepper and spice in every drop..." and not pepper, strawberry, pepper, strawberry -- if you catch my meaning...;-)

some of these vendors just had big Christmas sales, and a few had big back-to-back 40%-50% off sales too. My vendor has been closed since 12/16, she will reopen on 12/26, and I will be putting in an order that day :) I use Velvet Vapors mostly, I like her juice, shipping is good, and have had no problems. I like fruity flavors best, but her raspberry ginger ale is my all day vape. She has a nice sampler that you can buy, which is how I decided what flavors I liked, and threw in a few extras with each of my orders (turned out that the extras were my favorites, and I ordered big bottles of those on my next order).

k - Sir Vapenstein - my BwB order is in ... trying the 555 also; holding you to your word!~

A word of caution regarding BWB: I don't know why this is the case, and I can only name one other vendor where I feel this is necessary. Sample your BWB tobacco juice out of the mail, then put it away and sample it every week. In my experience, some of his tobacco juice is just "ok", and then some magic happens around the 3 week point and it becomes incredible. Casablanca is like that, so is the Maple Tobacco. Don't give up on that juice if you don't like it when it shows up.

Have you tried any other RY4s that you can compare it to? I like all the RY4s that I've tried so far. (Dekang, Liquidxpress, Liberty Flights, Gourmet Vapor), but they're all different. I tend to like the slightly sweeter variations as long as it doesn't get to sweet. Taboo from Liquidxpress is probably my fav at the moment, and I'm out of it. I'm torn between reordering or trying something new from someone else. lol.

I like Backwoods Brew Casablanca (Turkish w/ cocoa) and FreedomSmokeUSA Desert Ship (Turkish and US tobacco mix). I wouldn't describe them as peppery though.

Be sure to check out FreedomSmokeUSA's large selection of tobacco flavors. You can get under $3 24mg samples of some of them. To see all go to their Tobacco section - those are larger than samplers but the smallest is just $4. That's where you'll see all of their tobaccos. And those normal size bottles have a lot of base liquid options - lots of different ratios so get a ratio high on PG for more TH. I like 70/30 or 80/20 pg to vg.
