Peanut butter jam
Nutella
Andes mint
Cherry Garcia ice cream
Vanilla custard
Vanilla (I really want a good, intense, rich and creamy vanilla)
Egg nog
Rum egg not in oak barrel
Caramel custard
Creme brulee
Cinnamon roll
Horchata
Lemon and mint

Raspberry and mint
Creamy matcha
Pina colada
Coconut and lime
Lime and mint
Margarita
Banana bread
Snickerdoodle
Raspberry
Mango
Peach
Mint
Fruit medley
Caramel coffee
Vanilla coffee
Mocha
I'll add more as I think of them. I think I'll order most of the flavorings from TFA and CAP. I'm gonna order everything else from rtsvapes.
Does anyone know of a site where you can order small bottles of flavorings in bulk? Like, if you buy ten or whatever, you can get a discount? If so, thanks.

You may want to check out Wizard Labs. They carry flavors from several different places and have a pretty good assortment of flavors. Their 8ml bottles are $1.49 each so you try different brands of the same flavors. They also have all the other stuff you need for DIY.

But, be forewarned, it is addictive!!!

Good luck and enjoy/

Here's a list of flavor suppliers: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...162-diy-flavor-flavour-suppliers-vendors.html

Haven't heard of bulk done that way, but you can buy large quantities from TFA (just fill out email form - no wholesale # needed) and refill into smaller bottles.

This place is great for bottles: http://packagingoptionsdirect.com/
Thanks for the link. When I said bulk, I didn't mean a large quantity, I meant a lot of flavors. I want to buy small bottles of a lot of different flavors, if that makes sense.
From what I can see, TFA seems to be a favorite and CAP looks pretty good as well. I might get a sample pack type thing from LA of their super flavors or whatever but it includes four things of cinnamon, unfortunately. I like cinnamon but not that much, I think.

Sweet, thank you. Is their nic any good? I could just get everything from there, if so. That'd be cool.

Wizard Labs is an excellent company, and they sell a few different flavor suppliers.

Before buying many flavors by LA or CAP, I suggest buying a few flavors from different flavorists to see what you like. Initially, I spent too much on one company and didn't like most of them, even though they came highly recommended.

I purchased my first and only bottle from WL, I thought it was fine but it had a strong pepper smell and in another section I was informed that that was not a good quality nic base and to find another vendor. I have not tried yet but I am going to order from vapor tek next.

That's something I'm worried about. Do you know if RTS has good nic?

Some of the TFA flavors do or mention trace notes of acetoin, etc... Some of those are marked, some are not. You can look at the TFA/TPA website to compare them. The TFA website is very clear about the ones that do. I've not looked that far into the others, but I've read that some of the Lorann flavors do, as well.

It looks like RTS charges more for flavorings than other sites. I'll check out ECX though.

I've learned not to be to concerned with cost. I find by trying to save a buck or two I wound up with some pretty aweful flavorings and NIC that wound up down the drain. When that happens it kinda blows away all the savings. I now buy good flavorings (Inawera and hangsen) right off the bat as well as good NIC (Vapors tek) and although more expensive it winds up being a savings in the long run as these supplies are good, don't wind up down the drain and the flavorings are so concentrated that you don't use as much.

Check these places out
