Depending on how much you vape and if you have used the exact same flavor liquid this whole time, your taste buds may have changed to say "i'm board so im not gonna pay attention" and you may have gotten used to the TH. this is normal. try and change flavors (try non menthol) for a while and then come back to your menthol and see if your taste buds say " i remember that and i liked it so i will taste this!!" I switch flavors around on a daily basis just to keep my taste buds from getting board. also drink plenty of water to keep your taste buds "rinsed off" and ready to taste!

Also, depending on what you are using (still using the original starter kit? Even if it was a good one?) your batteries might just be weakening from old age.

Cheapest fix: try new juice, different flaver
A little more money: try an LR atty (if you are able to)
more money: if your batteries are older than 6 months you are due for new ones.

Good Luck!

I don't think batteries have much to do with muted taste. Sometimes buds simply get saturated and takes a while to recover.

If you vape constantly, you will become immune to the taste. I find changes flavors helps. Also, some juice can lose it's flavor over time. I put my juice in the fridge to keep it's flavor.

As a matter of fact, putting the juice on the fridge is a bad idea as it loses taste because molecules split. I only fridge it for long term storage reasons.
 
That my be ukeman, but those hh357's are blatantly OVERPRICED, I know I know all that testing costs $$ but at a reasonable price they'd re-coup over a longer period of time. It makes much more sense if you think it's the atty's to switch back & forth between 306's & 510's, no atty is worth between 15 and 20 bucks. Part of the idea to vape in the first place was to save health & money. I realize some of us vapers are shopaholics, myself included.

Then you finally tell to yourself... "Health is not paid by money" :lol:

I was going to say, first give the Hybrid atomizers a try; they are designed like the HH357; lots of wraps of wire for a nice long space of juice on the vaporizing coils. These are mass produced unlike the HH357, which is hand built and although the difference is notable the consistency and ease of use and flavor is better than most atomizers imo. I'm talking about 1. Avid Aero $12, and 2. Vapage shifu spec Hbrid ($18 for 2).....
