newb here- where is the flavor?

[sln88]

only had my volt 2 days so take my opinions with a grain of salt


my volt came with some watermelon carts. mmm? tastes like someone put a jolly ranches in a cup of water and told me to drink it. I guess vapor is ok, but I would not buy again

vapor god

1. cinnamon red hots. taste is ok, but again, weak. vapor is ok. best of the 3 I have tried so far but still lacking. seems to make me cough. but from what I have read any cinnamon could do that

2. orange cream. mislabled. should be called orange peel because it tastes like the oil you get on your hands when you peel an orange. yuck. bitter. currently trying to save this cart by adding vanilla cream to mellow/sweeten it. definitely would not buy again

throat hit on all 3? can't feel it, but in my case that is not a bad thing

my husband also tried VG RY4 and likes it as compared to the value vapor desert ship that came with his PV. He said the desert ship did not have much flavor but the RY4 does

I have 17 more flavors to try plus 10 mores coming from honeyville. It will take me awhile to try these all. I hope I hit on something better

again, I am a newb so don't know any better. maybe this is as good as it gets. I was expecting more flavor than I am getting. I don't think my taste buds are dead because food tastes fine to me

I do still love vaping as compared to smoking so I won't give up because of this

Generally, you will get a better throat hit if you use a higher PG based liquid. Don't know which kind you have but you might try switching to all PG. VG produces more vapor than throat hit. Hope this helps.

1)If you are new to vaping give your tastebuds time to adjust, they are healing and soon you will taste and smell everything better. Even if you think they are fine now, just wait a few weeks! You will be amazed at how different everything tastes and smells.

2) Some juices need to steep for a bit to get to the best flavor potential

3) Try lots of different vendors, they all taste very different, even the same flavors

4) The higher the nic level the more throat hit you will get as well

Good luck on your vaping adventure! There are some bumps on the way but it is so worth it

psssst.........get on over to alien visions. This is some of the most flavorful, complex juice you will come across. Took me 6 months to find them..........but i'm so glad I did!

 

[lasttango]

Your buds will loosen up... but there are liquids out there that will pack more of a flavor punch... not familiar with vapor god...

let folks know what you are looking for and we'll point you in some good directions...

Given the choices you described above... you should like someone who might like prime vaping, tasty vapor, vapor bomb, ms. t's, KBV, juicy vapor, virgin vapor, vapelicious, purevapes... get your husband some Boba's ;-)

I like lighter flavor...

anyway, good luck!

 

[sln88]

ugh- now I have VG chocolate mint in. Thought for sure I would love it. NOT!

I am frustrated enough that I may go back to my watermelon cartos. at least those were not icky

all I can taste in these is??? rubbing alcohol(something unpleasant) and a hint of flavor

 

[PONKAW]

I noticed you can sort of help TH sometimes with technique.
When I was using Ego t's if I closed the back of my throat... Filled mouth...closed mouth... then inhale deep, it can enhance TH on a lot of liquids.

I've certainly bought my share of yucky juices but there are lots of vendors that sell good, flavorful juice. It is a process of trial and error to find ones that taste good to you.

Lasttango named some vendors that have earned lots of praise for their products. After you've worked your way through the flavors you have, you might want to order a few samplers from them. Most have their own forums here on ECF.

Read e-liquid reviews here...that might help you decide which ones you'd like to try next.

Good luck finding the ones that you can't live without.

 

[sln88]

yeah, I am going to try more, but its killing me to be wasting money like this

I am thinking about trying top shelf with their double shot of flavor added

whats a good way to sample these without filling a whole cart and then being stuck vaping a yukky flavor? Can I just add a fw drops? I don't want to burn my carto(whatever that means!)

 

[ipetbumblebees]

If you want lots of flavor, two words: Vermillion River

Their whole Kentucky Premium line is amazing! And their Caramel Cappuccino and Butter Rum are spot on.

The flavors from them I find taste the best in cartos are the Cherrywood, Applewood, and Kentucky Premium Blend. All are loaded with flavor. You won't be disappointed if you order from them.

 

[TxParamedic]

Don't forget the classifieds. You can get some of your money back and let someone else try the juice you didn't like. These company's wouldn't stay open if they didn't have a fan base. Juice you think is awfull will be someones favorite!
I also second Alien visions There is a minority that doesn't like Boba's bounty but the odds are good you will.

 

[WarcraftMom]

Tasty Vapor is the best! I love their juice. I order with 80/20 mix of PG/VG. Favorite flavor is Pineapple-Orange-Banana, but I love a lot of their flavors Pear Marzipan, Blue Bull, Mahalo Oahu.

Enjoy

 

[exKool]

Alien Visions got me off of analogs completely. Pineapple Pulp (a fresh pineapple rather than a candy taste) and Boba's Bounty (to me it's a chocolate tobacco), are always in rotation for me. The juices from there have body to them that really agrees with me. I have a shelf of other juices that are not being used and I'm starting to pass them on to beginning vapers that I know. It's nice to be able to help someone else find what they like.

 

[frosting]

Vapor Gods do have some grand hits, and a few misses. Some flavors seem to be more for the flavor lab of mixing two flavors. I've tried them and some of their flavors are without a doubt strong. I usually get 20/40 VG however so more flavor is guaranteed to come though. I also use an eGo too so high VG is a bad idea for my 510 attys. I made a review on here about some of their GOOD juices I have tried so far. I plan on buying at least 50$ worth of their juice so I personally don't think they are "bland" or boring when it comes to flavor at least in the fruit department I'm a big fan and they have AWESOME prices.

I've wanted to try alien visions but I can't find the ratio I need -_- I refuse to use high VG on my PV.

 

[Dudeonline]

Alien Visions' Boba's Bounty is a good vape for ANYONE new to vaping to try. A lot of the time I see this to be an all-day vape from the get go whenever someone tries it. If you like Bananas, then you might give Gorilla Juice a go also. It's not so candy banana. More like banana breadish, with a spicy tobacco undertone. Seriously yummy. I can't recommend it enough.

 

[Rob0506]

You may have problems with Boba's Bounty on the Volt. I tried it with mine and it didn't wick real well in their cartos (100% VG juice is THICK). It is great juice though.

Kick Bass Vapor is a great place to try, you can get extra flavor. If you only buy one juice for yourself, I would go with the hummingbird nectar from KBV (with extra flavor, of course).

Your husband will probably love Boba's Bounty if he can get it to wick OK in those carts. (honestly, many people don't love Boba's at first. I didn't like it at first, but it was so unusual, and the flavor changes slightly based on the alignment of the planets or something. The next thing I knew I was vaping it all day long!)

 

[Rob0506]

Oh, I just thought of this, check out the juice reviews by AaronY (just search for him, he does a lot of juice reviews here on ECF). He likes very up-front flavor, and I think prefers the fruit over the tobacco in general. Anyway, it sounds like he has similar tastes to yours. It can save a lot of money and frustration to find a reviewer with similar taste buds.

Good Luck!

 

[sln88]

well, I have been at this a month already, and still no love from the joose

I have moved on to a t-rex. find my best flavor is with an atty, which makes me sad cause I really like the boge cartos

I have tried a bunch of top shlef with extra flavor and dropped over $100 at KBV- extra flavor. The best I can get is a slight hint of flavor

I think tasty vapor has a sale now, and someone recommended deejstuff. he does extra flavor at no extra charge and has a sale

I don't care for coffee or tobacco flavors so some of these suggestions won't work

is boba's bounty a tobacco?

I implore you to try the tobacco flavors from Vermillion River. When I first tried them, I didn't like tobacco flavors either. Their tobaccos are very rich and sweet, but not cloying. Any of them can be all-day vapes. If you don't trust me (I don't blame you; I know a lot of people recommend stuff that others end up hating) you can always just try a free sample. I think you only have to pay for the shipping, which is like $2. Try either the Kentucky Premium, Applewood, or Cherrywood.

Kentucky Premium - sweet and rich with a nuttiness to it
Cherrywood - similar to Kentucky Premium with slightly less sweetness, but the same amount of richness
Applewood - lighter and brighter than the Cherrywood, and sweeter.

None of these are so sweet that they're cloying.

For a couple bucks, you can't lose. And once you try them, you'll be hooked!

They're unlike all other tobacco flavors in that there's no bitterness or pungent quality to their flavors. They have a very authentic taste as well; there's nothing artificial at all about any of their juices.

 

[hairball]

It's not really lack of flavor, it's your broken taste buds but they will heal in time. Just be patient. You might need to go to a strong cinnamon, menthol, mint type of vapes for awhile. Good luck to you.
