Okay...I just have to share this. This is for those of you who have been on the endless search for the elusive cherry flavor (Clumsy, this is for you)...you know, the one that DOESN'T taste like cough syrup. MXBNW brought this stuff home on a whim the other day from a visit to www.ecigexpress.com and it is amazing! Now to be honest, I haven't mixed up a DIY with this yet. I only added a couple drops to my vanillaz + havana gold mix that I dearly love. And he just added a couple drops to his straight havana gold. But POW! This is cherry! Not super sweet, not tart...just right.

Its called Cherry Cigar from the tobacco express line. Here is the link.. http://www.ecigexpress.com/flavorse...6_98/tobacco-express-cherry-cigar-10ml-p-1351
Warning...this is super concentrated flavor. So 3 drops in a 6ml bottle would do ya. YMMV :)

No...in my opinion it doesn't. When MXBNW gets back from errands I'll take a pull off of his mod to double check. Mine has too much vanillaz in it to be accurate. To be clear...I hate cherry flavored anything because it has that false cherry flavor like the cough syrup or cough drops. This actually tastes like fruit. Mind you, there is a tobacco flavor to it, but it's minimal...pleasant even. Not acrid tobacco like. He should be back in about half an hour.

How do you like the Ecigexpress tobaccos, overall.....I just got my first flavors from them but was a little leary on thier line of tobaccos as I really like the FA bacco flavors. I want to try a good Virgina flue cured and some more complex darker, richer tobaccos.

I don't use anyone's tobacco flavors...or haven't yet. I mix my juice with Havana Gold from Alien Visions. So I don't have an opinion on the whole per se. But this cherry cigar is surprisingly good. Need to mix a batch of DIY with it ...and see what it's like. After this bottle is gone. Nummy! Someone else who has more DIY experience is going to need to answer this one.
 
Do you have an absolute favorite? Like if you could only have two and they couldn't be mixed together what would you pick? For the ones I have tried mine would be black and mild and honey flu cured. I still want to try the shisha have you tried it?

If I could only have 2 they would be the Honey Flue Cured and the Blackberry. Now the Blackberry is still in the testing phase and I got an early test sample but I have to tell you - it so completely rules! If I had to pick a second that is available right now I would go with the Cherry (perfect blend of tart and sweet with NO cough syrup flavor at all) or the Mandarin. They are both serious keepers.

I tried mixing my own eliquid until I realized how horrible it was, how long it would take me to make something comparable to my favorite vendors, and the fact that I have kids and don't want the dangers of liquid nicotine in my house.

When you add in the cost of web hosting, up-keep on the web site, mixing the juice, keeping an inventory, possibly paying employees (if you are successful at making eliquid), and having a sanitary and dedicated space in which to mix it, taxes and/or permits, plus any other supplies, shipping supplies, etc. that you need to run a successful business, you buyers are not being ripped off...especially if the juice is good. If it's crappy, well...that's another story altogether. No one wants to pay for a poor product.

If you want to mix your own juice to save money, by all means, have at it. But don't assume that you know all of the costs and liabilities that go into running a successful e-liquid business enough to judge whether or not you're being ripped off.

Not trying to start anything, just adding another point of view.

@ Pheisty:

DIY can be cost effective but from my short experience with it, if one thinks they are going to spend $20 - $30 and have the most magical e liquid ever they in in for a shock. DIY has to be more of a hobby, a general love or for a start up business venture in the biz. We all pay high prices to have our cars worked on, a dinner at a favorite restaurant, to have electricity in our homes, etc. But one could work on their own car, cook their own favorite meal or have power to their homes off the grid. It's just a matter of taking the time and money to accomplish such efforts. Fortunately I've found my favorite all day vape pre mixed in a flavor concentrate that any doof can add nic, vg and pg too and it works....I am paying about $15 for 100 mils of a 12% nic juice....and I got it right on the first go....

I think the OP was just venting a little rant every once in a while is good for the soul and besides who out there hasn't bought juice that wasn't that good, I DIY because I find it very satisfying I think my juice is great and the fact that I can make it cheaply is a bonus if people don't want to get into DIY that's fine too that's one of the great things about vaping there are so many choices

Okay, some one tell me a good Tobacco concentrate that I can add nic and glycerin to.
I like Flue Cured and depending a good RY4. Sometimes an exotic blend like a Latakia would be nice (reminds me of my pipe smoking days!).

I've liked the Flue Cured super concentrated from the Vaping Zone. In fact, I've liked all of their concentrated tobacco flavors. Havent tried their RY4 though, but have heard good reviews.
