OK so Ive been vaping for 3 months now and its been a pretty decent experience so far. However, I am having trouble getting good flavors that I like. I really like RY4 as a good all day vape, but im looking for the best RY4 around and also looking at Tasty Vapor. So far I have had the following flavors:
[Health Cabin]
+RY4 - pretty great, first non-cartridge flavor and still one of my favs, 8/10
+Camel - meh, too harsh but OK, maybe 5/10
[NHaler]
+Coffee Chocolate tobacco HV - excellent, really super impressively tasty and not too rough 9/10
+Black Cherry Cola HV- Very solidly tasty 7.5/10
+Peaches and Creme HV- okay in small doses, but not a good all-day, way too creamy 5/10
+RY4 HV- Super duper tasty as usual, more flavorful and sweeter. Also, less throat irritation than HC 9/10
+Black Raspberry and Creme HV - Pretty good, not too creamy like the peaches. 7.5/10
[Rocky Mountain Vapor]
+RY4- less sweet, more tobacco-ey? loses flavor quickly but pretty decent 7.5/10
+555- terrible, worst flavor ever, tastes like sweaty socks and peanuts 2/10

[V4L]
+Watermellon- pretty decent, tastes like fake watermellon flavor, a bit too sweet so not recommended for long seshes. Really hard to get the flavor out of an atty. Pretty forgettable 6/10

Im looking for something I can vape all day and preferably something USA made that doesnt make my throat so dry-ish. Every time i hit the RMV and HC stuff I get like a feeling that theres something stuck in my throat. Is that the nicotine or the PG? Im looking for a tobacco flavor that doesnt suck or something less super sweet and more "hearty" but still a lil sweet maybe? Thats I guess why I like RY4 and the choc-coffe-tobac. Are there any decent tobacco flavors that are worth trying? I dont want it to taste like a real cigarette so much as have a taste of the smell of maybe some quality tobac or pipe tobacco. I really like the smell of cigar shops, but i dont particularly love cigars? I like hazelnut, vanilla, etc. flavors.

I vape with a stock 510 if that makes any difference. Are there any recommendations you guys could give me for something thats vape-able all day and pretty tasty. Like I said, I really like RY4, chocolate-coffee-tobac and flavors in that spectrum (down with a vanilla if it tastes like vanilla bean and tasty). I am curious about tasty vapor as i have only been hearing good things. Any particular recommendations from that menu or ideas for custom flavors? Im basically ideally wanting an "improved RY4" or something along those lines. Like good tobacco flavor + something a bit sweet but not overpowering. 24mg and im thinking of maybe trying some VG (30%?) in the mix, hopefiully itll prevent some throat discomfort. Im less of a throat hit more of a vapor production kinda guy.

I just ordered a Tobacco, Vanilla, Chocolate #712 from tasty vapor with 35% VG and 24mg strength. I hope this will be a good one. Any ideas whether this sounds good in terms of a vape juice? I heard his tobacco is more like the smell of tobacco leaves and not trying to mimic a specific cigarette, which may be what im missing. That chocolate is supposed to be like real cocao whereas the regular choc is a more candy-like chocolate. Then some vanilla to sweeten it up slightly. Gee im excited, I hope this works.
I just cant beleive how disappointed I am in the 555 after hearing really good things. Maybe the vendor's model sucks? Hmm dont really think so tho, the RY4 is pretty solid. Pretty identical to the Health Cabin one which is definite DEKANG. I dunno whats wrong with it but its truly terrible on my taste buds. So if anyone likes 555, lemme know cause i can probably send it to you or if u wanna trade something you dont really want but i might enjoy or be curious about PM me.

I too am looking for just a few good tobacco flavors as all day vape.
I have a tw tornado and been enjoying the "tobacco" flavored carts that it came with. Its smooth, good TH and has good aftertaste. Dont seem to get tired of the taste like others I have tried.
I too am thinking tv as all I hear are raves......they gotta be swamped though so?

Hey makasin,

I am also new, I just got my first PV at the end of February and haven't had an analog since 3/1/10.YEA.

I started with the Camel - Dekang and agree with you in that it is too harsh. I got a sample pak of fruit flavours for 10.00 in 3ml bottles, some of them are ok, but not in love with anyof them. Just this week I got in a couple of flavours from Liquid Express with 80PG/20VG mixture- they let you customize your order. I got the Cola, which is pretty good but it tastes like a coke that has gone flat. I am wondering if all the Cola flavours taste like that? I also got Virgina Flue Cured tobacco and I am really liking it. It is a stronger tobacco flavour than the Camel, but not at all harsh, it is a little on the sweet side, but I wanted the sweet. I have not tried the RY4 yet, but I think I am going to order some this week. I am using a 510 also.

Anyway that's my 2 cents- hope it helps.

It sounds like you may like American E Liquid Store's FluCured Tobacco flavor. It's a slightly sweet'ish pipe tobacco'ish flavor that tastes of almonds to me. I got the 100% VG liquid, so huge plumes of vapor.

I haven't found that "one" tobacco flavor either, but its fun looking around for it :)

I've heard good things about TV's tobacco concoction. I bet that mix you ordered will be pretty tasty. Please let us know what you think of your mix when you try it out.

My best recommendation would be American Eliquid english toffee flavor. It has a sweet taste to it, but not too sweet like the butter rum. It does not hurt your throat since it is VG and you get lotsssss of vapor. I vaped that one for about a week with no problems. I like more of a throat hit personally, but this might be good for since you want more vapor less throat hit.:cool:

I know this isn't going to help now since the website will be closed until April 1st due to the owner's health but DIYFlavorShack, IMO, has the best RY4. DIY Flavor Shack by E-Cig Smoke Store Their 555 and flue cured is wonderful as well and they offer both PG and VG versions. The RY4 in VG is excellent. You should certainly give them a try once they reopen. Also, EliquidPlanet has a very, very good RY4 in VG and MyFreedomSmokes has a good RY4 as well with 35% VG.
