I'm just the opposite...I haven't tried a tobacco yet that I liked. I vape the dessert type flavors mostly. My 3 main vapes are 2 home brews (Caramel Cream and Hypnotic Mist) and Ms T's Snickerdoodle Coffee.

I couldn't agree more with Pokey. Start out with flavors that you love while you're getting used to you Buzz. When you find your voltage G-spot with those, then experiment with the other flavors. For the most part I have found that if a flavor tastes like a dog turd at 3v, it's gonna taste like a burnt dog turd at higher voltage...no matter how long it has aged!

Fortunately my hubby will vape up the stuff I don't like...I reckon after a few beers he can vape about anything lol.

    When I first branched out to other vendors I bought lots of small bottles of good sounding popular vapes only to find out that sweet does not agree with me. Doesn't make me sick or anything I just get this yucky sweetness in my mouth I can't get rid of.Then I was on a search for not sweet tobacco vapes and ended up with several bottles of yuck. I found BWB's Expresso and vaped only that for close to a month til I finally found a few good tobacco vapes. I get sick of tobacco sometimes but there's little else I can vape.

    I've heard good things about BWB Espresso, I may have to try it soon. I vape mostly about 12mg too.

    Oh please do. I love BWB Expresso so much that I get it in low 6mg just for the flavor. My vapes run up to 26mg but I normally vape between 16-18mg.

    Like I said, I started out with all them candy and fruit flavor and like Fran it's not that I hate them it's just they don't turn me on like 555 does. RY4 Tastes awful to me. I think RY4 tastes like that dog stuff you were describing.

    I never found a 555 that I like. VS Tampa is one of my favorite tobaccos. I also like BWB MelonBacco,Casablanca.Vaperite Perique and a couple others.

    My main vape is my home made tobacco blend menthol but I really like the sweets. Don't care for the fruity ones but the chocolates and coffees are good. Bovina and I seem to have similar tastes and we both vape 12 mg. I started at 24 and have cut back.

    I have only one juice at 26mg which is vaperite Perique. It has a very mid-mild TH for the mg level. It's very tasty. Other that that I have a couple tobaccos at 24mg but I only vape them at those times when I need the stronger hit. Actually haven't used them for a few days now.

    I started out at 24, quickly realized that was too high for me and moved down to 14. About 6 weeks ago when I started DIY I dropped to 12mg and now find that if I vape any higher I clench my jaws so much that it makes my face and head hurt.

    I had a small DIY mishap last night and it reminded me not to take safety for granted. I usually wear surgical gloves when handling my 60mg nic concentrate, but got lazy and skipped them. Well you guessed it...I have never spilled so much as a drop, until last night. Got a small spill on the mack of my hand and within 5 minutes I was sitting with my head between my legs from dizziness. It passed fairly quickly...but don't take short cuts with handling nic concentrate!

    Vapo your not going against the grain at all. I don't care much for the fruity flavors but I love the rich desserty flavors like custards, caramel and the like. You may vape at a little higher voltage than some of us but the only thing that matters is that it's working for you :) That's the beauty of variable voltage!

    My sweet-spot is 4.7v with a 306 atty (on a Buzz from Notcigs). Vaping 26 mg Honey Flue Cured from Liquid Xpress or 24 mg Boba's Bounty from avejuice.com. Boo yeah. CaSHtab from PureSmoker is excellent too. All three of those are my favorite and after trying TONS of flavors I feel they give a great throat hit and flavor/vapor on my set up. :vapor:

    Sweet spot is all up to you and depends on your style of vaping. Mine varies depending on what kind of mood i'm in but couple of things that determine your sweet spot are. How much you like to refill carts or drip, how much vapor and throat hit you want and flavor changes with voltages. It's honestly the only way to go. I have never had so much fun vaping. I'm a notcigs fan boy officially.

    Harry is a really good guy and makes some of the best juices that I have ever tried. I asked him to attempt to make me some oreo flavored liquid and boy oh boy did he deliver, just needed about 3 weeks to steep... Didnt mean to advertise one vendor within another vendors subforum I'm kind of an idiot...

    I think it's ok to talk about juice vendors Vapo...Mike doesn't sell them, he just sells the best damn PVs to vape those flavors on! Maybe we'll even get him out of his tobacco flavor rut
