hello! I hope all is well. I’m new to this and thought it would be worth a shot. Definitely a little lengthy but would appreciate ANY advice or suggestions. Thank you in advance. I have been a ciggarette smoker for 10 years. I had to quit last year due to being pregnant. After birth, like an idiot, I went back. But this time I started using American spirits light green inst read of marblbo menthol lights. I am now into my third week of stopping because of the vape. But I am dying for that taste of a ciggarette. Finally I guess my question is is there any cigalieks or e juices that “ taste” like this? Can’t wait to hear any suggestions…!!
Need suggestions!

Hi @suzy1q and welcome to ECF. 
When I quit smoking cigs the last thing I wanted was any ejuice that was similar to, or reminded me of, tobacco.
There are some tobacco-like flavors "out there". Some here on ECF prefer vaping NET (naturally extracted tobacco) ejuices for their tobacco fix. Unfortunately you will not find an ejuice that tastes exactly like a cigarette.
Are you 100% certain it's the taste of a cigarette you're missing and not the actual nicotine absorption from a cigarette?
What level of nic are you currently vaping?
If vaping a 3mg or 6mg nic ejuice you should consider upping the nic level to make certain your nicotine cravings are being met.
Good luck!!!

Hey,
Apprecaite you so much reaching out. I have never heard of NET ?. Honestly , I have no idea what it is at this point . I have 0% and 3% of the same flavor right now. I don’t beleive it’s the nicotine. I think I’m just looking for something so closely to the taste of it. Even though the taste is nasty ! I have no clue I am loosing it

NET's are ejuices naturally extracted from tobacco. They will give you tobacco flavor but not exactly what you're used to with a cigarette. And they will not give you the nasty taste of a cig.
Like I said I don't vape any tobacco flavors, so I'm not much of a help.
Check out this website. They have much info. You might even see a tobacco flavor that interests you.

Most folks just switching use higher than 3mg nicotine.
When I switched I was vaping 18mg and 12mg nic juices. After I was well set with vaping I reduced the nic. Currently I vape 3mg and 6mg juices.
I will definitely loook into this ! So basically it gives you tobacco flavor but not a nasty cig taste? Ok interesting, how have you been doing with those percentages of juice ?
Correct. We have a large area on ECF dedicated to NET's, how it's done and more.

I've been vaping since 2012. It was at around 3 months when I dropped my nic from 18mg to 12mg and then over time down to 6mg and 3mg. I'm doing well at the lower levels. I DIY my own juice so I am able to increase or decrease the nic as desired.
For me the hardest part of switching to vaping was that first cig in the mornings. At the time a friend suggested I vape higher nic juice first thing in the mornings. I did and that worked for me.
What kind of vapes are you using and what menthol flavors have you tried?
I get that I had the worst time in the morning the first two weeks because I loved it with coffee. I’ve gotten adjusted to not having a smoke throughout the day. There is certain times though where I wonder if I can just have one here and there. But I will definitely look more into that link you sent it’s a lot of info thank uCorrect.

Hi there. I’m using the geek vape mod and I use blueberry raspberry rollupz juice. I’ve tried other fruity flavors and I just hated it. I have not tried any menthol .
If you are not enjoying fruity flavors maybe give some bakery and dessert ejuices a try.
There are a lot of fruity juice flavors out there that add menthol or "ice" flavor that are quite popular.
Definitely don’t want this lol but thank you for suggestion . I think I’m going to look into the tobacco. Just trying to find something close to the flavor I guess I know it’s hard but I’m going to look into the NET u told me about
Welcome to the forum suzy1q. I think all who are reading you are pulling for you to stay off cigarettes successfully.
I agree with ShowMeTwice that if you feel like you're "dying for" anything, you may need to raise your nic level. I'm not sure, when you say 0% and 3%, exactly what you mean. Is that really two bottles you're using, one with zero nic, the other with 30 mg per ml. (3%), and are you alternating them or mixing them for an average of 1.5% or 15 mg. per ml?
I hope this will be helpful to you. When I was a new vaper, I found the eliquid flavors with "cigar" and "pipe" names actually tasted more like cigarettes than the ones labeled as "cigarette" flavors. ECBlend Cuban Gold was the one that really tasted to me like cigarettes. It's supposed to be a cigar flavor, but tastes more like cigs, and no nastiness, very smooth. Also there were tea flavors that tasted more like cigarettes than so called cigarette flavors.
As many vapers progress, they no longer want anything that approximates a cigarette flavor, and start to explore things like chocolate, fruits, coffee flavors, nutty flavors and so forth. There are a zillion possibilities. After about a year of trying flavors I settled on clove.
Each new vaper's journey is individual and your own. I wish you success and good health.
Hi there, thank you so much for the suggestions. I’ve never thought of tea flavors or naughty ones. Also, I will be looking into the Cuban blend that you just mentioned. Do you remember which tea by 3% I mean the bottle Thank you for your kind words
