You're going to have a difficult time finding vape juice that tastes just like a cigarette. It's really hard to replicate burning tobacco in a vapor. If you want to go that route look towards NET juice (Naturally Extracted Tobacco) It can be pricey though.

American Patriots by Naked 100 is a really tasty, close to tobacco taste juice.

I once bought some juice called Ashtray that claimed to taste just like a cigarette. Well, it tasted like an ashtray. Like licking a full ashtray. It was disgusting.

There isn't any juice that tastes like a marlboro cigarette. Lots of tobacco flavors and some very good. Some taste like pipe tobacco, some like cigars and some mimic cigarettes. Many are very nice but none of them can provide that burnt taste. Chasing a cigarette taste is a wild goose chase. Will consume a lot of time and never will be found

Think about this. The vast majority of e-cig flavors are created using concentrated food flavoring agents. I don't recall any food that tastes like burning tobacco leaves, do you?

Some tobacco flavors are created by using NET (nicotine extracted tobacco).
NET E-Liquids: Is the Flavor Worth the Added Risk?
I've never tried them (I smoked menthol cigs when I smoked) so I can't say how close they can come to a cigarette taste.

Tips for Novices Seeking Tobacco/Cigarette Flavors

I generally advise new vapers to shelve the idea to find a "flavor that tastes like a cigarette." You'll save yourself some time and money if you will search for another flavor that you would like to vape. Fruit? Candy? Bakery or desert? Coffee?

Try the vapor room USA red I’ve been vaping it 5 years. Like they said no vape juice tastes exactly like cigarettes after awhile you will be happy that it doesn’t. This is a really good flavor though it doesn’t have the to me weird taste that net’s have. Give it a try got me off cigs.

The best you can replicate is a nice pipe tobacco. There is nothing I've seen that can replicate a burning cigarette although many have tried.

If you like pipe tobacco you will like nets. If you don't then I suggest skipping tobacco altogether (as for some the flavor can make you crave a cigarette but YMMV)

You might like to try some foods you like, if you like fruits or nuts or bakery items.. my fav has been cinnamon roll and I was a Marlboro reds smoker for 32 years. The food flavors are awesome believe it or not.

A pure VG and a genesis-style atty for that closest taste and smell. I accidentally found this "recipe" while on a tight budget. Back then, e-liquids and mods were so pricey. No FastTech, and very few vape shops. DIY e-liquid was my only option.

As we all know, genny-style attys provide that burning taste, a tolerable burnt taste (not the dry hit kind) when you forget the "tilt". A burnt VG is that Marlboro Red taste and smell.

Cigarette flavor can be, and has been done. Three times, that I know of. I looked long and hard years ago and found a flavor called "Clay Westwood" from the "Adam" lineup by Eve E-liquid. Only place I can find it now is Zamplebox, which would lead one to believe it's no longer in production.

2nd prize goes to "M Type" by The Plume Room. It's actually a better flavor, but less of the smoked tobacco flavor than you got in Westwood. That one I know is still being made.

Big Spirit from Naturally-Extracted-Tobacco is the third. They use some kind of spice in with the tobacco extract that gives it that burning flavor. That being said, IMO it tastes like a stale generic cigarette. Worth a shot though.

A close, but no cigarette runner-up would be Huntsman from Heather's Heavenly Vapes. However, it has none of the Smokey taste. It's just a tobacco that has a very similar profile to cigarette tobacco.

I wish you luck. I went on the same flavor journey about 6 years ago. These are the liquids it brought me to. I've moved on from that flavor profile, so I can't help you with any newer ones that have come along in the past couple years, but I hope you can try one of these and enjoy them like I did years ago.

I smoked the M Reds too. I never found anything that tasted the same. In the end, I like my vape better so hopefully, that will happen with you. One company (Johnson Creek) had a great tobacco one and they went out of business. I then used this one a few times in the beginning --- French Tobacco (RY4 & Vanilla) E-Liquid and it was pretty good - tobacco with a finish of caramel/vanilla.

Years later I pretty much vape vanilla and coffee/caramel creations. Vapor HQ does sell some small bottles so you can try it without having to buy a whole lot.

I also use a Mini - I use the toptank top fill one and love it.

My first try is For You USA Mix.

Tastes very near some rollie or pipe I tried few decades ago. 24h now without cigarette, and brains don’t miss real cigarettes at all. One thing I realised at work: in coffee break we go out for a smoke (me with e), I smell the smoke of cigarettes...but yet I don’t miss that smell as I get the needed satisfaction from the vape. Wonder how long it takes that smell turns bad...

I've been vaping for 6 months, and started with a Kanger Subvod. My first two flavours were Naked 100 American Patriot and Euro Gold. American Patriot tastes like american ciggies, Euro Gold like Silk Cut.

In a couple of months, I quit tobacco flavours and moved on...now I love desserts.....I think its a path all ex-smokers take.
