I will try to keep the whining to a minimum :laugh: I seem to have lost my sense of taste. It's been weeks now. I can just faintly taste my ejuice (and food!). I drink a ridiculous amount of water. I rotate flavors throughout the day. I tried smoking unflavored for an entire day. Nothing helps. It's been going on for weeks now. I still have a little hope that my taste buds will start working again, but it's starting to feel like I'm never going to be able to taste again. Anyway, the point of my post is to get recommendations for a VERY strong mint/menthol flavor. Not my flavor of choice, but a minty menthol seems to be what I have the most success tasting. I haven't found one that is very strong yet, though, so if any of you kind folks have any suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated!

You could ask vendors for double flavour liquids or add your own flavour from concentrate which is cheap to do.

im having same problem, and am using double flavor to no avail, the only thing i can kinda taste when vaping is licorice(black jellybean). let me know if you work this out as its been almost 3 wks for me. and im drinking an ocean a day LOL

so your saying by going the way of vg, this will bring taste back? if i get same flavor and strenght in 100%vg and add to the 100% pg i already have that will help?
Understand PG coats the mouth, throat and nasal area. I gargle with fresh squeezed lemon and water to wash the PG coating away. I buy menthol drops separately and add to my juices.
Good Luck.

Vaping will dry out your mucous membranes. Drink a lot of water and keep yourself hydrated. This is a common complaint. People also find mouthwash to be a help in clearing the palate. As you transition from smoking to vaping, your taste buds will return more to normal over time.

I like Minthol from Madvapes. It's a doublemint or Lifesavers Cryst-O-Mint flavor with mint and sweetness. I don't care much for most menthol juices. They tend to be just that ... menthol with no hint of sweetness. I add them to tobacco vapes if I use them

Unless one has a sensitivity to PG I don't recommend them going to 100% VG as it is very thick. PG also enhances flavor and TH. VG also coats the mouth area but not as much as PG. As someone previously mentioned getting double flavor could help. All my juices are double flavor because of nasal issues= very little sense of taste or smell.

When I first started vaping I had the same prob.......I used cool rush by www.liquidxpress.com pg version:) Also I alternate a strong menthol with a tiramisu or "opposite" flavor to keep the menthol from dulling out. I am currently using as my alternate churro by Churro Vapor Drops .....hope this helps.......your taste buds will continue to revive:) I have never gotten th from a high vg liquid.......I try to stay at 80/20 or 70/30 pg/vg;)
