Hey everyone,

I have a few questions regarding a organic e-juice, but before I get to that let me first introduce myself and give you a little background. My name is Marshall. I am 36 (but would like to think I am 22) and have been smoking since I was 13. I have tried to quit numerous times to no avail. The first time I tried, I started out cold turkey. That was not good for friends family members or the general public. I then tried Zyban and had a very bad reaction to that. Next was the patch. Oh how I loved the patch and oh how I loved to smoke with the patch on. Next came Chantix. Chantix was great. It was going so well, so I decided to go to Walmart on the third day. BIG MISTAKE! This lady hit me with her cart three times and I let her have it (only verbally of course). Then about a 3 years ago I was introduced to vaping. I thought this is ok. After a few months of using that I wasn't really satisfied. So I stopped and started smoking again.

About a year ago I decided to try it again. I purchased the same old cigarette looking e-cigs. I received them and started using them and still wasn't satisfied so I started doing research on vaping. I was amazed to find there was a whole new world I had not yet known about. I ordered a V-Tube from Apollo and started using it along with their juices. I eventually bought an eGo-V from them and am now awaiting the arrival of my eGo. I must say using the eGo- and V-Tube have been great. I absolutely love them. One of my friends ordered the eGo and I really enjoyed taking it away from him and using it myself. The hit was so smooth and satisfying.

Now onto my questions:

1. Who do you purchase your organic e-juice from? I originally bought e-juice, nothing special, just a few different flavors and that was that. A few weeks ago I decided to google e-juice and found there are organic e-juices. Imagine a little kid waking up Christmas morning running down the hall as fast as he can screaming at the top of his lungs cause he is so happy he is finally able to see what Santa brought to him. Now imagine me opening up the website seeing all these flavors, drool slipping out of my mouth as I read in detail each flavor and comment left, I thought I was in heaven. Then I received them. I purchased 3 from Virgin Vapors and absolutely died when I tasted them. The flavor is soooooo good with no after taste or chemical residue in my mouth. I also purchased some from Vaperite. I have yet to try theirs, but will be in the next few days. So are there other venders of organic e-juice out there with different flavors? Please share your vender.

2. What is your favorite flavors. I will say I hate coffee so please do not tell me any coffee flavors as they will not do it for me. Do you have a go to flavor? Do you have numerous go to flavors? Please share with me what you love. So far I am in love with the Lemon Rose Water from Virgin, talk about mouth watering good.

3. Is there a place that makes a Dr. Pepper e-juice (preferably organic) that actually tastes like Dr. Pepper? I love me some Dr. Pepper and have tried from a couple places and what I tasted was far from the flavors I enjoy while driving down the street yelling at the other drivers to get out of my way.

4. Could someone please explain the difference between VG and PG. I have not yet done a search on this forum, and I will be momentarily, but thought I would ask and see if I can get a straight forward easy to understand answer. That means please dumb it down for a new-B. I would also like to know more about the 50/50, 80/20 and all other things associated with them. I hear VG is better for you, but PG enhances flavors better. VG gives more smoke, but PG offers a better throat hit. Please explain.

Well with that I will patiently await someone or someones to respond to my post. I hope you enjoyed reading this as I tried to make it slightly interesting, fun and appeasing to all persons who may answer my post.

Virgin Vapors Organically Flavored E-liquid | Virgin Vapor | Electronic Cigarette Organic e-Liquid | Electronic Cigarettes and Vaperite Vaperite | E Liquid Flavors and Organic E Cigarette Liquid primarily. I buy some single flavors from other vendors, but I like a few from the two just mentioned.
2. What is your favorite flavors. I will say I hate coffee so please do not tell me any coffee flavors as they will not do it for me. Do you have a go to flavor? Do you have numerous go to flavors?

Sorry, coffee flavors are my niche. Virgin Vapor's Kona Velvet Milkshake is my all time favorite. Annettes other coffee flavors are all excellent. From Vaperite Double Espresso and Kona Cream are daily use flavors. Both vendors use organic flavorings.
3. Is there a place that makes a Dr. Pepper e-juice (preferably organic) that actually tastes like Dr. Pepper?

Never looked.

You pretty much already summed it up.

Firstly, what do you expect to gain from "organic"? Not all foods that are organic are proven more healthy. Virgin Vapors sells organic juice. I believe there may be another vendor or two.

Vegetable glycol will give more vapor, but less throat hit. It is also thicker, and will not work in some delivery devices iff 100% is used. Propylene glycol will deliver the most throat hit and carries the flavor better, but less vapor.

Finding an "organic" Dr. Pepper is impossible because the ingredients in the real thing is artificial.

I am not sure exactly the difference in organic. The main thing I have noticed is that I love the Clouds of Vapor organic line of juices. They are 100% VG. I always thought VG lacked flavor and throat hit, but OMG! They use alcohol based organic extracts and they have amazing throat hit and strong flavors. Since I've discovered them, I have been on the search for good alcohol based organic extracts but haven't DIY'd them yet. The alcohol based is the only way to go! Really good stuff.

I don't necessarily expect to gain anything other than flavor. I agree not all have been proven more healthy, but the flavor is definitely better on organic foods vs non organic foods. I have found the same with the juice that I have purchased.

I am in LOVE with Virgin Vapor.
Kona Velvet Milkshake says it's a coffee vape but I don't taste it. It's sooo creamy and delicious. I've had smokers and non-smokers alike rip my PV out of my hand to taste what they're smelling. I've converted a lot of smokers that way.
My all day vape is Bella Amaretto though. I have a carto of both on me at all times.
I do recommend steeping Virgin Vapor juices for at least a couple of weeks though because the flavors seem to really bloom with some time.

Funny I should see this post now. The hubster just called me into the bedroom... To taste his new flavor, lol! It happens to be Dr. Pepper. It's not organic, but they use 100% Kosher VG to make their juices.

Anyway, the Dr. Pepper (Dr. Vapor) he's huffing away on is absolutely tasty as ever. It leaves a nice, refreshing feeling in your mouth (or at least it did with me!) If you're interested, look them up on Facebook : Vapor Trail E-Cigarettes. They don't have an online shop, but I know that they will ship orders.

I just orderd from Virgin Vapor last night... I'm really excited about it too. I'm still new at this and I'm just trying to figure out what I love :)

PickyJuicer,

What did you order from Virgin Vapor? I have to say if you have not tried the Lemon Rose Water, it is divine as is the Cherry Vanilla Swirl. Tonight I am ordering the Egg Nog and a few others so they can steep. Let me know what you think about them when you receive them.

I have a question: What does 'organic juice' mean. I understand 'organic gardening' and 'organic chemistry' (I am a chemist), but I fail to see how the term can be applied to juice. I am honestly puzzled. Can someone please explain the term to me?

I am thinking the flavor is not artificial and that makes it organic and I guess the taste of juice is much better than artificial flavored jucie - none of that perfumy taste? I dunno - think I will order some and try it.

This is from the Vaperite website:

"I was never a tree hugger or a hippie (well maybe a little bit of a hippie) but when I was vaping all the stuff from China I always tasted a chemical residue or something funky in the juice. The colors in the bottle were weird as well. Vanilla was pink and Chocolate was orange. Then I discovered organic flavorings.

I thought hey! These don't have all the bad stuff in them and what you get is a tasty smooth vape. The processes for making organic flavors are much the same as for making natural flavors. The ingredients are organic rather than just natural.

Foods claiming to be certified organic must be free from food additives, and processed without the use of artificial methods, materials and conditions, including chemical ripening, food irradiation and genetically modified ingredients. Farms labeled 'USDA Organic' are routinely inspected. Organic Flavored eJuice contains USDA certified Organic Flavors, USP grade vegetable glycerin, tobacco leaf nicotine and in some cases Organic Ethyl Alcohol. There are no chemical residues because there are no chemical solvents used to make the organic flavorings that go into the vape juices. No DEG. No artificial flavorings. No artificial colorings. No artificial sweeteners. All Vaperite Organic Flavored Juice is 100% USA E-liquid."


This is from the Virgin Vapors website:

"100% USA E-liquid. None of our ingredients come from China. Our nicotine is extracted in the USA and our organically flavored e-liquids contain no artificial ingredients or additives. They are made from USDA certified organic flavorings (some of our flavorings come in an organic ethyl alcohol base, the Absolute Virgin line is alcohol-free), USP vegetable glycerine, and nicotine. And that's all! No DEG. No artificial flavorings. No artificial colorings. No artificial sweeteners. All of our flavors are USA made and third party certified organic.

Recognizing that many people have allergic reactions or experience irritation for propylene glycol, we offer you a choice. Our vegetable gylcerin based e-liquids are 100% propylene glycol free. Some companies sell vegetable glycerin based e-liquids, but use flavorings that contain propylene glycol. At Virgin Vapor it is important to us to bring you a truly propylene glycol free e-liquid. We also offer VG/PG mixes for customers who prefer a propylene glycol base."


Having tried many vendors' e-juice, most of my favorites in my collection that I currently use come from the above two vendors. I have found that their flavors have generally been spot on to what they are described to be, although as with all e-juice flavors being so subjective your experience may vary from my own. The e-juice from both of these vendors improve dramatically if allowed to steep 1-2 weeks; Vaperite also sells many of their flavors already pre-steeped for a slightly increased rate.

Both vendors offer sampler packs.
