I am trying to find something I would like, something that will wow me. Just tried some of what many rave as fantastic. But nope, I am still stuck on one flavor/brand of juice and nothing else gives me my fix.
I guess that is okay. Even a good thing, don't have to worry about washing out tanks or getting a carto mixed up but sometimes I just get bored so I go off, spend some money, experiment a bit only to find myself saying, "really? I don't see why this is reviewed as being so great?"
I suppose I really should be happy, I found the perfect juice and I am always good with it, any day, any time.
Is it just me or are there other long term vapers out there who just stick with the same old same old because that is their happy place?

I too am happy with one perfect for me flavor. I spent my first four months trying a little of everything, and the next four months looking for the perfect menthol. Finally found the one that suited me perfectly, and managed to pass along all my collected flavors as I passed along my old units as I tried new ones.

It should be noted also that during those initial eight months my tastes changed quite a bit, so I'm not sure I would have even enjoyed my final choice (if it had been available at that time, which it wasn't).

Halo Torque on a HV mod. It was a total accident too. Last year when I started vaping I was a menthol smoker, looking for the perfect menthol, I ordered all the menthols to try and the tobacco ones for my husband, I tried out his and viola! Became a torque junky after that.

I have a new pile of BWB stuff here. Tried three of them at 3.7, 5, and 6 volts....I am not sure what I was expecting to get but did not get it. I did dig out an old penstyle battery and I am vaping a fourth flavor now, this particular flavor is not gonna be one I like but the taste is completely different using the penstye mod. Perhaps that is what I need to do when I don't need a nic fix but just want to vape a flavor, use a regular e-cig model. It won't give me that inhale satisfaction but it gives me something different to taste.

Funny thing on the waffle, I love me some waffle house and whenever I leave Northern Il and head south, I always look them up to see if where I am going has one but waffle liquid....not sure about this. I'll try the penstyle thing with it.

ETA: Since I am bored, I am switching out batts voltages left and right. Figure I'll give em a fair shot for a couple of days. If anything, it will recharge my taste buds.

My "goto" vape would be "Killa Vanilla" from VaporGalaxy. I like it at every voltage and use it continuously. I find myself buying it in bulk with every order. I still use others and have found some good flavors from PinkSpotVapors but I still clean my pallet with the vanilla. It took me some time to find that flavor and my former favorite before that was "Carmel Waffle" from TastyVapor. I think it took a few months to get the taste buds back and find what would work as a daily vape. I've found myself getting nervous when I run low on my favorite and attacking the postal delivery person before the reach the house when I'm out ;)

I found my 'one' flavor, but only after 3 days of vaping it my lungs are aching constantly like when i used to smoke to many analogs in a day, after just a few puffs on my PV :( Wonder what it could be...

If any DIY'ers are interested in trying it out tho the flavors are Lorann's watermelon 8%, PA's honeysuckle 10%, sweetener 3%, and menthol 1%.

A couple things about wyatt
1. I don't perceive a perfume taste. I primarily taste the tobacco and the black licorice (purchased mine a month ago.)
2. I'm using the ego-T, it dulls the flavor a bit
3. I sometimes dilute with pg/vg so I don't over nic myself if I'm chaining. Maybe 10% dilution.
4. I'm starting to believe that every batch made may be totally different than the last batch made with the same name. Saying this...recent forum threads are showing people that recently got turned off by WE, but used to like it.

Well, one thing about me is that I am never overly prejudice over a juice. You won't see me try it, dislike it and throw it away. I am giving it a few weeks to settle, if it gets any better, sweet. If not, I'll probably just give it away (3mL bottle) or add it to a bundle for a trade or something.

Given your gear is in order, some of us, looking for the "ultimate all day vape" will find that it never fully happens... because we vape too much... yup, if you chain vape, you get kinda tired of the same flavor all day, even if it is the best.

Vaping one flavor all the time too often, eventually gets boring.... I tell myself to give it a rest... when I come back, I see how great my favorite juices are.

I think uke is right. There are so many good ones I've tried, I'd hate to be tied down to just one. When I vaped PG/VG blends I was stuck on Sweet Caroline from iVape and Torque 56 and Trupure from Halo. Now that I'm all VG it's Flue Cured, Boba's and Gorilla Juice from AVE. I'd be good with any one of those. And I do add a few drops of menthol every now and then.

For me, it's teaberry. When I first started vaping I couldn't understand all of the flavors because I wanted a CIGARETTE, period. After about 2 months I wondered if anyone made teaberry, my most favorite flavor. I have happy memories of walking in the woods and coming across a teaberry bush with a lucious berry. Well, I found it and it's my one and only flavor. Of course this also helps to make sure I'll NEVER, NEVER go back to analogs because they just don't make teaberry cigarettes. It's been just over a year now for me analog free and I'm a happy and much healthier person. Thank you ecf forum and the wonderful, helpful folks here!

I can relate to this. I tried some RY4 back when I first started vaping and was like "eh". Maybe I was after the analog subsitute flavor and my taste buds were still shot. Anyway, about 5 months ago I got a sample of RY4 along with my usual 20 different flavors on my search for the "One". After I went through them with disappointment, I saw that little sample left. So I threw some in a carto, fired it up, and just about cried. That was it, the one I had been looking for. Just enough balance of tobacco and sweetness. It's been my go to vape since then. Sure I still get curious and try the latest raved about juice. KBV has some great flavors by the way, but I always go back to the good ole RY4.
