I've ordered from a couple of different e-liquid suppliers (good service from all). I pretty much vape Johnson Creek all day, but would like to be able to find some good fruity flavors to add variety to my JC.

I have also ordered from Dawn (DIYFlavorshack), VaporNine, and Midwest Vapor. I am a sucker for sales, thats how I ran across the last two. Most of the juices I got from Dawn tasted great, but didn't give that rush that let me put down my 510 for too long and a couple were low on the strength of the flavor end for me. Will definitely vape those flavors, just not quite what I wanted but pretty close.

My main question is pretty much all of my VaporNine and Midwest vapor bottles are comparible in vapor, different tastes/flavors, and lack-there-of. Out of 10 flavors I can't claim to care for any of them. They all seem to be a lacking flavor from the get go (mw), or taper off way more quickly than the other juices I have tried. I will get by vaping them, but I was wondering if there was some sort of common thread between these two (are these the chinese juices a lot of folks run from?) and if there are similar companies with similar tastes to avoid.

Where I could get the best juices that are high in flavor (without feeling greasy for lack of a better term) and consistent. I like the sweeter tastes, food, candy, etc., with a drop of VG for a vapor boost.

I don't think I have ever ended up with an all VG juice if someone thinks that may make a difference somehow.

I'm sure I've probably confused everyone with my questions; my brain doesn't work right unless I'm sleeping, so if it was hard to understand please ask me questions so I can get helpful answers!

PS Thanks to everyone who helps anyone on this board, without it most of us wouldn't be vaping, and if we did, we wouldn't have a clue how to do it:p! Keep up the good work!

hhmmmm? you want an answer huh? hhhmmm? No Answers only more questions

You like Johnson creek? I sent mine back..

I like Nhaler RY4 and Nhaler High Tobacco and not much else. High Tobacco is not in stock - and who knows if it ever will be?

I loved High Tobacco- It was a sweet light hay tasting tobacco- like the smell of a new pack of mARB- IS HOW IT TASTE- BUT SWEETER

wHO MAKES a Tobacco like that?/ Who? has the best Tobacco Flavor?

Robert, when Nhaler is out of your high tobacco, from your " sweet hay tasting tobacco" description. I'd suggest you try Kent flavor..It definitely has that "sweet hay" back ground flav to me...

Enadrown, You didn't mention what mg level of nic youd prefer to stick to...But That "rush" you mentioned that allows you to put your ecig down for a bit leads me to believe you're into higher nic level...

Just to clarify, yes I am a juice junkie lol...And I agree that it is harder to find a "strong" fruit/sweet flavor that also gives that "rush"...Because, With added flavoring the nic content and or vapor production in most liquids go down..
A few suggestions, I had ordered grape and rum from electronicstix.com in 36 mg.. They were really strong on flavor and rush..Nhalers liquids are usually massive vapor producers ( love that)..I will say DIYflavorshack/Dawns liquids are probably one of the strongest as far as flavor strength ( i'd really suggest trying a much higher nic content for the "rush")

Keep in mind when and if you order "double flavoring" you're deminishing the rush/nic content/vapor...I have also purchased one bottle of really high nic liquid such as Totally Wickeds Platinum Ice(54 mg unflavored) or Nhalers 60 mg unflavored etc...That way when I find a really strong flavor that lacks the "rush" I can add a drop or two of one of these and it helps alot, without deminishing much flavor ( because so little is needed)

As always be careful and know what you're doing ( follow instructions) when upping your nic level and know the signs of too much nic - jittery, sweats, insomnia, heart palpatations etc.......Hope any of this helps (smile)

I'm curious about what Johnson Creek flavor enadrown loves so much. I must admit when I placed my first order with them 3 weeks ago for their original & Tennessee Cured I LOVED the Cured as it was pleasantly (but not overpoweringly) nutty & sweet. The original had a nasty chemically taste I despise & can't bear. So I placed a second order for more of the TN-Cured & found it to have a strong background flavor of the original I bought from my first order- a nasty chemmie undertone. JC said they'd accept it back for exchange or refund but I had used nearly half the bottle as it was the only juice I had for a week, so I feel bad attempting to return it.
So, what JC flavor do you dig? & have you noticed any inconsistency in the flavors over numerous orders? I could see myself making the TN-Cured my regular flavor, but only the first batch I got...

Try the Nhaler juices. Alot of flavoring. And as for the JC juices I too think that it has a chemical taste to them. My 3ml bottle of Tennesee cured is the only one that is all gone. And I had my JC juice's for 3 months now.


I actually have some of the Nhaler Juices. I ordered the Orange Lung Juice from Drew to help with my coughing, hacking and general discomfort with my sore throat. It honestly seems to help with the symptoms im having. I use it as a night time toddy before going to sleep.

I also made me up a batch of VG juice today...and its awesome.

NJ I know what you mean about the nasty chemical taste. I had that once with JC wild cherry and now with Dawn's new bottle of ry4. :(

What the heck is that from? I don't think it's the resellers fault, I think it has something to do with pouring. We should ask a seller and see what they are willing to do in order to insure we don't get a sour batch of liquid.

I have been vaping JC Artic Menthol since August and have ordered a number of times. The flavor has been consistant with the first bottle. Have an order coming today with my first bottle of Tennesse Cured so I'm hoping it is good. I also had a sample of the Expresso which I loved so have a bottle of it coming too. I use the reduced pg. Don't know if that makes a difference.

I also had been ordering the reduced PG & the nasty chemmie flavor/odor in my second TN cured is exactly like the one from the 'original' (regular not reduced PG) that I had. Therefore, the PG-VG factor has nothing to do with it. I know that JC has had issues in their old stock problems with it killing atomizers rather quickly & numerous batches of green juice, but all of their new stock has been fine- well, with exception to this nasty chemminess that's inconsistently present with my experience in the TN cured. Sucks, cuz it would've been my everyday juice. Now I just continue to search & pour $$$...

Sorry about the delay, got lost in other sections of forums for a few days... Personally, I cannot taste any difference in JC flavors. It might just be me. When I vape them (peach, strawberry, vanilla, and black cherry) they taste no different one juice to the next. THey all have a sweet (not TOO tobacco-y pipe tobacco) flavor, but I can't taste the strawberry or vanilla for instance. Long story short, they all just taste the same to me, I have some mint that I will open one day, but as I can't differenciate the flavors, I don't see the point of having more than one bottle of it open now. Haven't had any atomizer problems that seem to be out of the norm.

Boiled and let a few Titan attys sit and dry for a few days, now I can't even hit them the draw it so hard, so I guess that was probably just a failed cleaning and I refuse to clean any more attys.

I find most of the flavors don't make much difference. I just got a vanilla and it taste the same as my others flavor. I don't really understand how people have a favorite flavor. I may just be me but I was hoping to get something a litter sweeter that produces a good throat hit. Any recommendations.


Nhaler RY4 or Almond Joy both fall under that sweet with good throat hit catergory IMO. FYI: I am using 24mg.
