So, I've been vaping since the beginning of April. Got hooked up at a local B&M store that, at the time, only sold the ego batteries with t2's, t3's, and protanks. They make thier own liquids as well as selling a select few from national juice makers as well as DeKang.
I remember when I first started, I absolutely loved thier tobacco flavors and a few of thier more fruity flavors. However, I've experimented, altered my t3's and moved on to genesis style atomizers as well as a dripper and a silica based tank. I still go back and forth between my evic and the Nemesis (vv and mech). I've noticed that the t3's provide virtually no flavor for me any longer; there's only the faintest hint of flavor until burning happens.
With the gennies and the dripper it's almost pure flavor. And with those pure flavor devices/setups I'm finding that the first juices that I absolutely loved are so revolting it's not even funny. Those awesome tobacco flavors? Yeah, those all taste like medicinal garbage. Even the non-tobacco flavors at the original shop tend to taste more medicinal (not perfumey, think good ol' green nyquil kind of medicinal)
I've also tried other B&M flavors as well as big chains like Halo and Voda and they all have this slightly medicinal and very fake flavorings. Good juices tend to taste good in the gennies and the dripper. I've come to like HHV for all day vaping and a few other smaller places like Moon Juice and and a few others.
Curious if that's been happening to others as they progress with thier vaping? Are you finding you still like the original juices you started with or did you simply not venture off to taste others?
I guess the next question I have, if this is natural, why do the chains make such crappy juice? The good juices tend to be less than one quarter the cost of the crappy stuff and they are 1000% better. Is it that hard to source good ingredients?
<Edit> I should mention that I've tried steeping, which mellows, but does not eliminate the medicinal tastes. I have experimented with DIY flavorings as well as experimented various juice brands.</Edit>

). I use to love Bobas Bounty, Gorilla juice and can't stand them now. So basically now I try to search out new juices, not so much for trying to find the ultimate flavors but just to try to mix it up a bit. There's some really good juices out there but I think I just need to find them when my taste buds allow me to enjoy them.
