Not loving the Carto flavors.

[Kanza]

I had the same experience in the beginning...blah, bland and basically the same taste. But then I discovered *peppermint* and the rest, as they say, is history My taste buds started to scream "more" and "different" and "take a risk" so I did and continue to do in most of my orders. It will happen and then you will find yourself asking, "what if I added this to that and put in a drop or two of whatever" and you'll never look back Peppermint, coffee, licorice, clove...those flavors really sealed the deal and they make great blenders, too One thing I recommend...keep what you don't like for later, after your tastes change, and re-sample Lots of luck and keep us informed of your journey!!

I like the stronger flavors.Licorice,coffees,clove,Cinni bun,They are strong and different.I like the peppermint too.

 

[MsOceanCity]

Maybe try some of the juices and blank cartos??? I am not a huge fan of prefilled, although I like some of them and they are very convenient for on-the-go situations. IMHO juice in a blank carto can't be beat.

+1 on this!!

 

[jtcaseyjr]

I usually only buy cartos to either try new flavors before I jump into juice. Or I will buy cartos that i plan to re-fill with the same juice. Like Black Licorice for Instance. I always buy the 5 pack cartos, because I have the Juice for it. I think for the $1 or so extra over the blanks, I get the first fill out of it

8-o

 

[Morandir835]

I wouldn't Ms. Clover, and whoever said they would has to get through me....

 

[Kanza]

Clover, so long as you continue to vape and don't turn to analogs, we loves ya, darlin'!!! But, you must use V4L something, don't you, or do you just like being part of the family? As far as I'm concerned, feel free to share what you do vape and why

 

[Conard]

Not me, I vape V4L along with a local suppliers juice. They have a "full" flavored menthol that tastes and hits like a Hall's cough drop. That flavor made me try others and I have many non-V4L favorites.
I's all good....

 

[Kanza]

So right...it's all good I use only V4L but I am on the lookout for ginger, which they don't have. Sure, I might order an off juice or two down the line from a different manufacturer - but I cannot foresee leaving V4L as my main supplier for *any* reason under the sun Maybe other places offer their kind of service but I'm not will to risk looking

I was looking at another juice supplier on-line the other night, who offers caffeine in their juice, along with nicotine. The idea intrigues me. Still, it was a roll-your-own supplier, and I couldn't suppress the image of Billy Bob mixing the juice in his bathtub...

It's probably a perfectly fine and legitimate supplier. I've been spoiled.

I prefer the cool carts too. And as everyone has said your taste change. At 3 months in, I just ordered the premium coffee sampler pack. Expresso is great! And I don't even like espresso

 

[Maxwell_Edison]

I ordered two sample packs and also received a few flavors to try out when I ordered my kit last week.

Since then, I've tried the following flavors:

Wow Caramel Apple
Chocolate
Wow Pina Colada
Cool Carts Kiwi Apple Strawberry
Wow French Vanilla Ice Cream
Wow Chocolate Banana
Wow Cherry Cordial
Wow Super Mint

I hate to say it, but I'm not impressed with ANY of these. In fact, a large majority of them almost seem to taste the same.

Am I the only one that has experienced this? I'm also pretty disappointed with the vapor production/TH.

I placed an order last week for Wow Peppermint and Premium Grape so I'm hoping to have better results than these.

I really don't want to have to switch to a different vendor for my cartos because I love V4L customer service and sales but I'm might just have to....

How long have you been smoke free and were you a heavy smoker? I didn't really experience the vapor flavors till around a month after I stopped smoking, and even more 3 months later. Every flavor you mentioned I too didn't like at first, but now love after 5 months smoke free. I stuck to tobacco and coffee flavor till my taste buds were working, the flavors mentioned are usually not for newbies in my experience, IMO. Enjoy some Wow 555, Cowboy, Wow Coffee (etc) for a while and come back to these more gourmet flavors later.

It is my personal opinion that that the vg (thought with limited choices) are a good place to start, because for me, the vapor coming out matter then the throat hit going in. I was a heavy smoker so very used to feeling that rush with the exhale and the vg just did it for me. Give it a shot, and dont be detered with the lack of choices. My personal favorite is vannila (which I'm not obsessed with or anything . Worked for me maybe it will work for you.

 

[Creniker]

@Rappel I haven't smoked analogs for about 3 weeks now (GO ME! ). I started with D2 batteries (the highly overpriced mall version) and really liked the carto flavors. But I wanted to switch the the D1 battery so that I have more options for carto flavors/vendors at a non-outrageous price.

I think I'll see how I like the Premium Grape carto from V4L and maybe experiment with some of the premium flavors.

I'd really like to start filling my own but haven't really spent a lot of time researching the process. I filled a couple so far (bought a little sample bottle) but I'm kind of hit and miss.

It seems like there are quite a few ways to refill so any suggestions/links to videos would be appreciated!

(PS: Another reason to love V4L? All the oh-so-kind vapers that help the newbies like myself.)

Watch snows video on the twirling method (for the life of me I cant remember what the real name for it is) its on a thread he started. Helped me a ton with filling mine.

Update: I really should read through the thread before I try to help lol. Three other people said it before me XD

 

[Clover~]

lol I only use V4L when it comes to batteries, chargers, accessories, cartos, and everything else. But the juice? nope. I have a bunch of bottles of juice from them that I don't really use. My BF likes some of the tobacco flavors so Ill order some Kamel here and there for him. Seriously do people forget who I am? Im freakin Clover! I belong to the V4L family! I use their products with pride! but the juice... sorry! lol I get juice from a nice lady in Maine who used to be a baker. It costs a little more but its worth it. She does everything herself! sooo good. But... dont hate me for it! lol It makes me happy to vape blueberry muffin, peppermint hot chocolate, watermelon, blueberry pancakes and other yumminess. Ill order a pack of prefilled carts here and there from V4L but thats about it.

NEVER take anything I say seriously - I just don't take life seriously and hardly ever make a serious comment. Life is about having fun. I'll probably not bop you on the head with my silver hammer.

Clover..whatever gets you thru. I am just happy you are vaping at such a tender age..all us old farts are sorry we didn't take action when we we young!
