Alright I'm looking for some kind of tobacco flavor that actually tastes like tobacco but goes down smooth kind of like a Marb 27. Anything like that? Also what is the best flavor that would satisfy a late night craving for something to eat? Thanks for any suggestions :thumbs:


I used to smoke 27s too, and the Mboro ones from V4L really don't taste like them. The Virginia flavor is a little closer, I'd go with that.

KENT is the closes to Marlboro and very smooth. Well liked by many on this forum.

Hilton is good, and not crippling in flavor, just about right.

Camel is about double hilton, starting to get a little over the top

Tobacco Road (kill) is ugly as a two headed scorpion It's doable, but I wouldn't recommend it for all day use, it grows on you a bit at first, then you grow apart.

Flu cured tobacco is concentrated monkey ..... tastes like crap smells, and has a back taste about like someone lit a cigar, but it out in a portapotty, then relit it and continued to smoke. If you do hazzard an attempt at smoking this, make sure you got a skunk handy so you can lick its .... to get the taste out of your mouth. Yes its that bad.

If you bump into one called "USA Mix" its the same as Tobacco Road (kill)

I havn't tried kent, but I'd love to.

I havn't tried Virginia, 555 or M'boro and so again I can't say about those.

I gotta save up to get the wife an ultimate ultimatum kit now, My VK is going to wear out with all the use goin down up in here leme tell you. To think I tried to pawn off the 901 on her :/

I shoulda known better.



This from a 22 year 3 pack a day smoker who just went right to vaping and hasnt had an analog since the day my first appliance arrived.

P.S. I got menthol 24 MG carts from V4L with my Vapor King. If you were a menthol lover, these will seem very familliar..but of course that only applies to menthol lovers, and you indicated you were a marlboro (non menthol) type :)

Now I just gotta get some fruit and other unusual flavors...except clove, omg no cloves.

I love that black berry flav. its a really good night vape.

I'd be surprised if it wasnt.
A lot of people forget that the E-cig isn't an analog. as such you can do things with it you simply cant do with an analog. Flavors have been tried and largely failed with analogs because in the end you *have* to burn a real cig, and that destroies all flavors except menthol and some of the duller flavors.

An E-cig opens up possibilities people never considered seriously before. You can have a roast beef flavored juice...and yes they do make one, probably several.

Oddly enough, the one thing that an e-cig *Doesn't* do all that well is mimic an Analog. You can try, and its fair, but you'll never really get there from here. That dog just wont hunt.

Instead of trying to make an e-cig what it isn't, many users eventually get around to trying to embrace what it *is*...which is a device capable of many flavors and strengths designed not to leave tar on your walls and ashes in your lap.

When selecting a flavor, try to select things you "like". For instance i *like* pineapple. I've not tried it yet, but i will bet you that I'd like pineapple e-juice.

Some e-juices don't always come out like you think! Cherry often tastes (according to many reviewers) not like a big fresh cherry, but like a cherry pie filling cherry. It's important to read reviews by more than one person to get a handle on what a particular flavor is like.

Even so there is no accounting for taste, so you have to try it to be certain. Sometimes your experience and the reviewer will not agree. For instance, some people *like* "Flu Cured Tobacco". To put it mildly; I did not. When I get around to putting up my video reviews the first impressions on that one will probably make you laugh...I won't give it all away, but I was *revolted* by it, and that doesn't happen a lot haha!

Always consider buying small sampler size bottles, or luckily with the VK, you can get a pack of carts to try a flavor. instead of buying a 50ml of something ugly only to discover it's ugly.

Well you can always try mixing to get a specific flavor.

I know I used to smoke Djarum blacks all the time.

So, I started looking for a mix that would be a good substitute.

I finally settled on a 50/50 mix of Vanilla, and clove.

It thins down the clove enough so it isn't quite so strong, and adds a bit of sweetness to.

Just get yourself some juices, and start playing.
Make up small batches until you find one you like.

There is a really good spreadsheet that will do all the calculations for the mixes.

Hey I haven't seen you around lately. I've been working on the that djarum flav. believe this or not but I think I'm close to it.

1/2 clove 1/4 coffee (questionable you might be thinking) 1/2 of 1/4 RY4 and marl....to make it sweet or just 1/4 marl. Its very close.

Im still working on it.....I find V4L 555 (30ml bottle) gets closer to it than the marl but still trying to find the extra kick....I'm thinking of trying the vanilla in the mix to see if that narrows it down.

Im on a mission to find that perfect djarum black flavor.:evil:

I'm not sure if the ones I have are your new ones. But I have some and I have tried them. They have excellent throat hit, taste and smell absolutely wonderful. Not too much vapor though. And I know the lack of vapor isn't me because I get TONS of vapor from the grape carts.

I do love those clove ones. Is clove juice on your next order?

holy vapen when did you get the clove cartomizers in?
Holy vapor Grimmerman ! ! ! I ordered and received some Clove cartoizers last week. Wasnt quite sure if I would like the clove but wanted to try anyway. They are wonderful grimmer. I am putting them in my top 5 favorite flavors along with RY4, 555, Virginia and Menthol.
It is a real "spicy" flavor and goes great with a few drops of mint or menthol.
Gotta get ya some grimmer ! ! !:thumbs:

Steve, what about mango? That is such a yummy flavor and strong enough, I think, to make a good juice. I know I'd buy some! Man, can hardly wait until my new order of carts comes in and try some of those fruits!! And this coming from a person who swore they would never vape anything buy tobacco flavors ... hey, I'm a woman. I have a right to change my mind, right? :)
