Hello all! I've been vaping for 6 days and I've tried a total of 11 flavors so far. First, I will tell you the name and where I got it from and what I thought of it. If there's something on my list that is missing that you think I NEED to try, please let me know! Currently, I have 10 bottles of juice and some of them are really good! But I wanted to try as many small bottles of stuff before I started buying large so I can really appreciate a nice vape all day long. So far I've tried...

Tobacco - Liberty Flights: Not too bad, doesn't taste like tobacco at all. My first 5 carts were filled with this. Probably wouldn't buy it.

Smooth Menthol 18MG 100%PG - Liberty Flights: This stuff is POTENT. At first, it took some adjusting to, but I think I was determined to love it since I didn't have any other juice right away to vape. So eventually I don't know if I just got used to it or if I really just like it but over all it's good! A nice almost candy like mint taste, excellent TH. I've got a 30mL bottle, so no worries on this one!

Apple 18MG 100%VG - Liberty Flights: This stuff is DELICIOUS! It tastes exactly like Apple Juice, very tasty! The throat hit is lacking (obviously, VG) but really isn't that bad. I could definitely see myself buying a large bottle of this stuff. (I like to drip, and I drip two drops of Apple with one drop of that Smooth menthol from above and it's quite a combo!)

Pear 18MG 100%VG - Liberty Flights: Pretty good, I could vape the whole 5mL bottle with no problem. Doesn't taste like real pears but it's not too candy like either. Overall good vape.

Fruit Mix 18MG 100%VG - Liberty Flights: Meh, I don't think I really like Fruit Blends of anything let alone vape juice. But it's really not bad, just not my thing. You can taste a multitude of different flavors but it doesn't taste like real fruit.

Strawberry 18MG 100% - Liberty Flights: This stuff I did NOT like. Way too candy like (pez, maybe?) Maybe my tastes will change in a week or two of steeping but I would not buy this one again, yuck.

Seriously Minty 24MG 80/20 - Gourmet Vapor: It's no joke, it's SERIOUSLY minty! My whole package smelled like it when it came, lol! I keep my menthol/mint flavors separate from my other flavors in my desk cupboard but I keep that guy away from them all! SUPER powerful spearament but quite delicious! I've only tried it while being sick, but I liked it. Even if it is VERY VERY POWERFUL.

Mint Chocolate chip 24MG 80/20 - Gourmet Vapor: Once again, I tried this flavor only when I was sick (still sick now,just not as bad) and really it was pretty good. I like that chocolately taste, maybe when I am done being sick fully this will either be a GREAT or a TOSS OUT but as for now, pretty good.

Nuport 6MG 80/20 - Gourmet Vapor: This stuff hurt my throat (I am sick though) and I could taste a very mild mint. I don't think I gave it enough of a shot though because I was mixing all kinds of flavors into one atomizer so I will give it another shot after I am better.

420! 12MG 80/20 - Gourmet Vapor: I think I need to re-try this one as well because all I could taste I think was the RY4 I had in there previously. The 420! is supposed to have a mild RUM and MAPLE taste to it, but I couldn't find it. Probably as I said because of the RY4. Will try again after I am better.

RY4 24MG 80/20 - Gourmet Vapor: This stuff is SUPER tasty! I only had it so far when I was sick but I enjoyed it very much! I could probably see myself buying a larger bottle of this stuff.

I think think that's it! Phew, that's alot for 6 days.

As you can tell, I tried straight PG and VG alone. And then the only mix I've tried was an 80/20. I also tried to buy different nicotine amounts to see if one worked for me better than the other. I think the 18MG works for me just fine. As for a proper PG:VG ratio, 80/20 isn't bad but I've only tried it when I was sick so maybe I should wait until I'm done being sick to try them all again (and I will!)

Some people are paranoid of PG and stick to 100% VG. I'm neither here nor there, but I was thinking of sticking to mostly VG? maybe like a 30PG/70VG? I dunno. I can vape the 100% PG and I can vape the 100% VG but I just need to figure out what's good for me.

Okay, so anyways. That's what I've tried so far! What recommendations/suppliers do you guys think I absolutely just HAVE to try! (I am trying maybe 2 more suppliers for now, and I want to buy a case for my ego for mobility and also a drip tip!) So what do you guys think?

You should try out Backwoods Brew. Their stuff is 70pg/30vg and they all perform really well. I think you'll like the strawberry, it's not candy/artificial like most. Espresso is good too

The espresso maybe, but the previous strawberry I've tried has me sort of turned off on that flavor for now. I'm not much of strawberry guy anyways, I just bought it for my girlfriend whom I am still trying to convince to vape.

Any other flavors? I'm going to check their site out for possible accessories. As I said in another thread, I think I might try out 3 flavors from Alien Visions. I can get the drip tip there, but I still want a case too.

I'd say Maiden Coffee by Gourmet Vapor if you're a strong-brew coffee drinker.

Peach by Vaporbomb is amazing. My favorite fruit flavor. It makes my day sooo much better. It's so good! Not very candy like, but not exactly "real" fruit flavor. Just perfect according to my tastebuds! :lol:

Snickerdoodle by Vaporbomb. It's my favorite flavor in the baked goods department. I can't explain how awesome it is!
pl
Arctic Ice by Vaporbomb. It's basically cold. It's not minty at all, just cold cold cold and very pleasant and smooth. Goes great with any fruit flavor!

I have been vaping for about two months now and have been buying from quite a few suppliers and the following I would highly recommend:BWB, Vaperite, FreedomsmokeUSA Gourmet Vapors, Bombay Vaping, Vixen Vapors, Awesome Vapors Check out their stuff at least. They all have quite a good selection good prices and great customer service.

must try Tasty Vapor and Kick Bass Vapor

highly recommend Atomic Cinnacide by TV....it should be a "staple", as much as tabasco, pepper, or salt is in the household, cuz you can use it to "top off" any so-so ejuices and make them AWESOME.

Kick Bass Vapor-caramel cappuccino and monkey bread

VaporBomb FIRE & ICE-----the perfect blend of atomic fireball and arctic menthol. this is like the CRACK of ejuices. you have been warned.

LOL - crack of e-juices!

Great recommendations! I might try that Atomic Cinnacide but overall I am experimenting with flavors that I haven't really tried or will try yet (stuff in the mail) Even though another company might make a way better version of what I had tried already. There's only a couple of flav's I want to re-try in different nicotine levels such as RY4.

The problem with vaping is, when do you actually start saving money?! Hahaha! I want to try it ALL! But I've come to a conclusion that I have to decide relatively soon on a nice all day vape and then occasionally pick up some samples from different vendors. Some of your suggestions sound DELICIOUS! Like the Caramel Cappacino and Monkey bread. But I already have a caramel coming from Alien Visions along with gorilla juice. And I've got a cafe mocha coming from BWB so that covers the 'coffee'ish flavor. The fire and ice one sounds a little too much for me LOL but maybe someday I might feel spicy and give it a whirl. So out of the two vendors you recommended Tasty Vapor and Kick Bass which do you think I should try more? Which one do you like more?

I still need to try some from
VaporBomb
BomBay

So I want to try and stay limited, at least for a little bit, or at least until I get my other orders....who am I kidding, once I get paid again I'll probably TRY THEM ALL! I think I need help...


EDIT: Actually, I dunno about TV... No sample bottles = I dunno bout that.

Kick Bass - do you have to be registered before you can put stuff in the cart (I like to do this to see what a total might look like before ordering, 'window shopping')

I'm not sure when you start to save money ... lol ... I'm kinda where you are at right now. Feels like I'm in a new country and I want to try all the dishes.

Lots of people recommended good vendors. You mentioned VG, and I just wanted to share .... I loved the idea of VG and went with it for many of my early orders. Unfortunately, at 50% vg many started tasting "waxy" on the exhale. Not everyone experiences this, but a few other people here have. It might be something to test out on yourself before ordering a bunch of VG. I'm having to blend a lot of those flavors out with other PG based flavors .. making my own DIY flavors in the process.

Just wanted to offer a heads up on this. Of course .. this may not even apply to you at all.

Have fun and happy vaping!

Thank you trips for the heads up. I've tried 100% PG and 100% VG and the only mix I've had so far was a 80/20. I haven't had any problems with any of them honestly. The only one's that bother me a little are the 24MG I tried. Way too much for me.I am comfortable at 18MG and lower and I have to take like 3 continuous drags to feel the TH. Nothing waxy quite yet, maybe it was just the flavors? Or the vendors? I dunno.

It could be the vendors, or the flavors I've tried ... or, like they say - different taste buds. If you've tried 100% vg and haven't gotten a waxy taste then I doubt it will ever bother you at all. But I mentioned it, just in case you did experience it at one point and were wondering where it might be coming from. Or heck .. if someone mentions it to you, you might pass that bit of info on. :)

18 mg is high enough for me as well. 3 drags for me as too.

I'm still trying stuff out ... flavors, attys, cartos, etc. I wonder if I'm spending too much money? But then I realize I was spending over $5 a DAY on cigarettes. The costs will eventually add up, pretty quickly.
