What brand is the flavoring?
(And I assume you meant 100mg nic)
VG will mute the flavor a little bit but you should be able to taste it at 30%. Something isn't right.

At 10% a good flavoring should be very flavorful.
I use the perfumer's apprentice and flavorart flavors.
How long have you been smoke-free?

Tell us a bit more to help you.

Just an observation: Unless you need the high VG content for some reason, cutting it down to 20% or so should increase the flavor.

Also, it sounds counterintuitive, but I've read that too much flavor can be as tasteless as too little for some reason. :/

In the future this should be in the diy forum---thats more people who look at that forum on these subjects to help you with discussions like this.

yo vapo is correct. Try a 80pg/20vg mix. Add about 10% vanilla shake and try. Then you can add a drop or two of flavor till you dial it in. Have you added any sweetener???? Some people (like me) need sweetener at around 1% to make a mix "pop". You can use Ethyl Malto or cotton candy (sucralose) which you can buy premixed from many flavor Suppliers. I find the sucralose to be better in bakery and fruity types of mixes and use the EM for tobacco based juices. You may be in the group that requires some sweetness in order for the flavor to come through. Best of luck

the vanilla's i buy from vendors always seem to need to be steeped before they taste right,,something to consider

i vaped the same flavor the next day gave my taste buds a rest and my mix tasted great .......

Good. Try to find 3 or 4 "favorite flavors" and switch them up. It really helps you taste them.
