Hey everyone!

I am wanting to try a handful of e-liquids from FSUSA. Everytime I visit the site, I'm really overwhelmed by all the different flavors. What are some good ones to start off with?

I like sweet and fruity stuff, and I'm finding that I like PG more than VG (if that matters)

All suggestions welcome - thanks much!

Hey Dooter. :)

If you like your fruity with a bit of smooth, I just tried the Strawberry Cheesecake and the Strawberry Cream the other day. Both were awesome.

The Mango is a little tart and very yummy - pretty close to the real thing.

If you want to get a little esoteric, the Hypnotic Mist isn't really a fruit, but it does have a fruity quality to it, and it's very good. It's one of my all-day vapes. It seems to taste a little different every time I vape it.

Hi Dooter! The specialty mixes are all 50/50 vg/pg, but if you're willing to try some, definitely get small bottles of fuzzy navel, hopscotch, orange creamsicle, and butterscotch almond. If you like chocolate, try thin mint cookie, almond pleasure, and/or peanut butter cup. If you love fruity sweet flavors, strawberry twist is very good.

That said, if you do prefer mostly pg, then you're limited to the premixed flavors, as all the premixed specialties are 50/50. Out of the premixed flavors, I really like classic vanilla and peach. But, I've not tried many premixed flavors as I prefer the premixed specialties.

Are you sure that you like more pg than vg? I don't doubt you, but I was the same as you until I started buying liquids from FSUSA. Now I love a 50/50 mix.

I really like the Raspberry and the Pomegranite. They taste like the real fruit, not candy.

The Raspberry Tea is awesome.

Oh, and Texas T's Lime, Cold Pressed is really good too!

On the sweeter side I love the Cookie (tastes like sugar cookie), Vanilla (both) and Peanut Butter Cup.

They are always having great sales, so just have fun, one handful at a time :D

Well, I'm still pretty new to vaping to really be absolutely sure of what I like, but I notice that I can really taste VG, and not in a good way. :( I don't know if I'm just ultra-sensitive to the taste or what, but it has a weird caramel/soap taste to me, and I get it from every flavor I've tried so far, even in low percentages of VG. I'm just leary of it at this point, really. I don't get that weird taste from any PG based liquid I've tried.

Good point Vaporgalinfla. The Mango and Hypnotic Mist are regular pre-mixed - you can get them in any PG/VG mix.

But the specialty flavors only come in 50/50. I am normally a 90% PG vaper, but I like a lot of their specialties. Maybe give one a try.

Definitely will try a couple of the 50/50 mixes!

LOL - I'm pretty much throwing everything that is being suggested in this thread into my cart... I'm very excited about that Hypnotic Mist!

Tried Hypnotic Mist tonight thanks to the free sample of it that was in my order, and I can seriously see this as becoming an all-day vape. The TH and vapor is just outrageously good, and the flavor is a tad different each time, but there's still a distinct fruity flavor that I know I have tasted but just can't pinpoint, and it's driving me nuts.

Those samples. I'm loosing count of the juices I never would have ordered were it not for included samples. That's how my love affair with Hypnotic Mist began:vapor:

I am very glad I got this sample. I never would have bothered with it because it was a tobacco based flavor. I came on here and read a few things about it, so I decided to try it. I almost didn't bother because of the tobacco base. I am very glad I did and from now on, I will be more open to the more non-traditional tobacco flavors. Hell, I think I would even like to try a menthol flavor, as I have heard from many people that those who hated menthol analogs seem to really enjoy a menthol vape.

OK, I know you said fruity flavors. But I'm finding my favorites are their coffee-based flavors. More ooomph and TH to me. I'm loving the cocoa chaos, coffeeX and cappuccino smooth. A friend sent me some Hypnotic Mist (thanks Salem!), and I'm definitely gonna order some of that, but in x-tra flavor. Another favorite of mine, and many people on this subforum is HopScotch. Really good stuff! I know you will find several flavors you love! Let us know your favorites.

Okay Dooter, here's my 2 cents.... I've been vaping for close to a year and a half so listen up.

Hypnotic Mist - you can't go wrong
Butterscotch Almond - Great sweet flavor, leaves the air around you smelling fantastic, be sure to let it steep if it's not a sample
Wyatt Earp - an interesting take on tobacco, great TH
Cocoa Chaos - strong earthy chocolate flavor that is great with any chocolate beverage!!!
Ry4 - closest to the actual description of Ry4 I've tried (make sense?)
Strawberry - very similar to the real thing and not candyish
Apple - very similar to real thing also and everyone around you will recognize that you're vaping!
Caramel Apple - same apple flavor with a sugary-sweet added bonus!
Cappuccino Smooth - good flavor but for some reason I didn't get much of a coffee flavor
Banana Strawberry - definitely banana but in 24mg it seems to tingle a lot and takes away from the strawberry
Cherry Lime-Aid - Lime is very strong, took a little while to get out of my atty, prolly won't order this again
Menthol Ultra - DEATH BY MENTHOL, got it in 36mg and 100% VG to add to other flavors for a kick w/ added vapor, wasn't really a menthol smoker though so I hardly ever vape it

Those are all the ones I have tried and look, I like practically all of them!!! Planning on trying some of the baked goods next as well as hopsctotch, fuzzy naval, and rose (hoping to find some similarities to rose hookah). :2cool:

Hi Dooter,

On the subject ofweird tastes, be sure please to read the two Stickies, "Great Video On Steeping Your Liquid" and "Now, about that juice you just bought.."

Some juice tastes great fresh when you get it and others need anywhere from one to six weeks to age or steep and reach their full flavor potential. Any juice you get that you don't like right away, regardless of the VG/PG mix, don't toss it. Set it back and revisit it in a month or so. You'll probably get a nice surprise!

Funny you should mention this, because I've just started reading about "steeping" and wondered if this isn't EXACTLY what I need to do with my current PG/VG mixes. They just taste so wrong right now.

I'm going to try it.
