Show me the flavor!! please...

Hi all! Here I am 2 yrs later STILL looking for that FLAVORFUL juice. I've tried so very many and have found some okay flavors. What I am looking for is Flavor with a capitol F. I like banana, coconut, any kind of nut, fruits, desserts, bourbons, rums. Not too interested anymore in "pure" tobacco flavor but would be interested in sweet, honey or sweet fruit tobacco. Though I like a sweeter vape, I would not like anything "candy" flavored. Real banana, melon, berry tastes would be good.

I have tried:

5 Pawns: All flavors were good but much too subtle

Steam Company: Beaumont Reserve, GR and the apple one from the reserve. Same as above, too subtle

Lazarus Vintage: Journey and Trinity reserve. Both excellent if you like pipe tobacco. I will try their other non-pipe tobacco flavors because these folks have offered the most flavorwise.

Ahlusion: ordered and tried many, again, good but too subtle. I will order again with extra flavor shots.

All others I've tried aren't worth mentioning as they have been just meh...

I've spent hours on the Best Gourmet Flavors post so don't know if anyone can pull a rabbit out of their hat at this point, but thought I'd give it a shot!!

Any suggestions would be great!

I'm a huge fan of Mt Baker Vapor. I know there are plenty of people who snub their nose at them as being "cheap" but I think there is a difference between "cheap" and "affordable" and for me, they are the perfect combination of consistency, AMAZING customer service, lightning fast shipping and variety. I highly recommend them and they get the majority of my business. I recommend Blue Moo, Butterscotch, Blueberry, Wintergreen, Cinnamon Bun and Pina Colada...they are affordable enough to try anything that jumps out at you. (I'd suggest going with 50/50 and 2 extra shots in anything you may order)(Free 15ml bottle of your choice with >$15 order too)

The e-liquid I'm CRAZY about right now is Caramel Swirly by Madtown Vapor. I think it would fit if you are looking for something more complex. It's a caramel base but it has this punch of SOMETHING...it's coffee/mocha/vanilla/smokey...I don't know what he's putting in there but I don't care I love this stuff. The owner, Dino, will send you 2 5ml samples free if you pay the $2.50 shipping. I got the Caramel Swirly and Blue Moon ice cream and I have a 30ml of the Caramel Swirly getting here tomorrow. My sample is long, long, loooong gone.

I like really strong flavors as well and that's what keeps me from ordering from some of the other places that I may want to try, such as Alice in Vapeland. They are known for really subtle flavors and that's fine, a lot of people like that or vape from gear that enhances their e-liquid flavor but for me, for now, with my Evod set up I stick with MBV and MTV for the price and great e-liquid.

OH and forgot to mention, I've seen really good reviews for Nicoticket as well. They are one I will be ordering from this week to give them a try.

I personally thought Orange creamsicle and Razzmatazz by Virgin Vapors were pretty potent and yummy, both are real fruit flavors not candy. The orange didn't need steeping but the Razz definitely did. When I'm in the mood for something over the top flavorful I vape Alien Vision's Clove, of course you must love clove.

Any suggestions would be great!

I had that problem so I purchased some DIY flavorings and spiked the juice with them.

(which eventuallly led me to DIY but that's another story).

Get some banana, melon, berries, spike your juice w/'em. I really like a pipe tobacco with a little fruit myself

I can second Mad Alchemist Dragons Breath as being flavorful.
I am also gaining a love for Alt Cigs and have tried 2 of theirs and am impressed with much flavor. Did you steep your AHlusion? I ordered it too while looking for bold flavor and when it came I was like 'huh? wheres the flavor?" 3 weeks later it was like "holy moly the flavor is here.'
Another vendor that is known for strong flavor is Indigo Vapors

 

[Thundernoggin]

Churros Y Chocolate and Key Lime Pie from The Vape Kitchen are pretty bold. Thick 100% VG so if you are Protank-ing it you will need cotton.

 

[snarfies]

Steamy Vapor's flavors are quite flavorful.

i really like this juice from bigcloudvaporjuice my favorite is cosmic crush its pineapple green apple and orange its so good really a sweet treat and smooth no wierd after taste

 

[Tiffaney]

I just got an order from Mt. Baker yesterday with two flavor shots and they are great without steeping I can't wait to see how they are after steeping.

this is what i've started doing too-I should have started long ago!

Try, Melon Fury, with a flavor shot and about a 80/20VG/PG mix, from Lucky 7 vapes. When you get it steep it for about 2 weeks, it might be just what you're looking for. Very real fruit taste and not just one noted, it has a deep complex melon flavor.

Whoa! Thank you guys so much for taking the time to respond. I REALLY appreciate all the info.

I will definitely try your suggestions. Here's a bit of a funny. I have a box full of Ahlusion's juices which I had not tried since receiving them a couple of weeks ago. Well, I broke into them last nite and I must say they definitely have potential! I think with extra flavor shots I might get what I'm looking for. Yay!!

For any of you contemplating them, be mindful of the fact that it does take some time to get them (14 days from date of order to your door.) Then steep time so we're not talking instant gratification here! BUT they obviously take great care in what they do from price, packaging, options and quality.

Lastly, I'm planning to get some sweetener and flavors to brighten up some of my leftover juices. Can any of you DIYers recommend your favorite sources and/or flavors? I'd really like concentrates but mostly what I've come across are juices that just mix with other juices. Have any of you tried food grade flavorings? You know, like the kind you find in the supermarket? Almond extract, vanilla extract and so forth?

Again, thanks y'all for the great info!!

Try Wizard Labs, and/or The Perfumers Apprentice.

Plus 1000 on Mad Murdock's Pluid! I just tried his Bledan Lotus and it is AMAZING!! Think Lemon/Lime Gatorade on Steroids! If you want a good fruit and coconut go for Good Life Vapor Corrosion! It's lime, orange, and coconut. I can't go a day with out it! Most of their fruits are really good. I'm currently stocking up on their Purnurple (grape), Solaris (blueberry, really excellent), Corrosion, as well as a few others!

no vendor makes juice more flavorful than mad murdock, period (i have tried over 120 vendors btw)
it's incredible how much flavor it has. MM even sells a special cutter to mix with his juice, to tone it down for people that can't handle the crazy amount of flavor.

i have tried over 120 vendors btw

is that like 121 or like 600?

If it were really that good he wouldn't need to dump food coloring in it to make it look cool. In case he hasn't noticed yet you might want to tell him to cut it out because the FDA isn't too fond of vaping already.
