I like DK TAB quite a bit, and from what I understand it is Dekang.
Yep. That's what the 'DK' stands for. The 'TAB' is not that precursor to Diet Coke, but Turkish American Blend. It is one of my top favorites as well. And I still like DeKang Marlboro, as plebeian as that may sound. I also enjoy Cuban Cigar and Flue Cured. [Yes, I am a tobacco-flavor man.] GrimmGreen has expressed enthusiasm for RY3, which I have not yet tried.

MyFreedomSmokes carries a huge selection of DeKang e-liquid (at least I think it is DeKang), including more tobacco flavors than I have ever seen.

The best thing about Dekang has to be the variety. You're bound to find something that you like if you look around enough. I've probably tried 50+ different flavors. Most are fine. Some are stronger than others. Some are very true to the flavor they're trying to achieve. Some miss the mark completely. I really liked their Winston because it tastes like a cigarette. Then I tried Dunhill and I think I like that even better. Their Newport is also good and saves me the trouble of mixing tobacco and menthol flavors to get a nice mix.

You really have to try as much as you can because you never know when you're going to find a new flavor that really surprises you.

One of the flavors I want to try is either Cigar or Cuban Cigar, but I don't know which is best. Anyone out there have a preference?

P.S. In the summer I like to vape Peach. I don't like peach flavored anything, but I like to vape it. Go figure.

I like USA Mix Dekang, but I haven't developed a taste for the DK-TAB. I thought I liked SEC Kent and still vape it sometimes, but there's a light perfumy taste that I get sometimes from it that is a little foreign tasting.

Right now, I'm vaping 18mg AV Turkish Blend that was not impressive a couple of weeks ago, but is nice lately. Go figure. Your tastes change and then what was not good becomes good. That's why samplers are a good deal.

Yeah, I admit when I first got my pre-filled carts with DK-Tab, that I thought it was that delicious beverage in the hot pink can... 9 years of college down the drain...
They had flavors for everything else you can think of...

I appreciate the feedback - I am sitting on a 50ml bottle of DK Virginia I received by accident... rather than sending the $9.99 bottle back to my beloved supplier, I thought I'd vape it and it isn't bad at all - I was thinking of trying the DK-TAB and RY 4. Can't beat 9.99 for 50ml.

The RY4 is a good vape. It's a tobacco taste with a little sweetness, kind of like a subtle caramel under taste. Virginia reminds me of the slight sweetness of a Winston. Turkish is reminiscent of an unfiltered Camel. SEC Kent is light and sometimes a little sweet and perfumy for me. Other times I like Kent. It seems to be better through my Ego than my 510. I think that the Ego battery maintains the voltage under the atty coil load better than the 180mah 510 batts. The little extra voltage seems to balance out the tobacco taste with less perfume effect.

been vaping for over 7 months and my all day vape is 24mg Dekang Menthol, for 6 of those months. I have tried more expensive brands, all seem pretty good and true to their flavor but would not trade for menthol. Ps. I have only tried Dk menthol tho, as I cant believe it can be too hard to screw up.

Many like the Dekang Menthol. I have had 2 30ml, 24mg & 18 mg. There is a new Menthol Freeze I like better.

I was a menthol smoker. DeKang currently has menthol, mint, Nuport, and Salem. Am I missing one? I guess you learn that a menthol isn't just a menthol after all. I tend to get either menthol or nuport and cut it 50%. To be honest after smoking menthols for 25 years I couldn't even taste it anymore. My first menthol vape was an eye opener for me. Better than anything you can pick up at the gas station, that is. I'm currently into mixing. A little of this and a little of that. It keeps things interesting although I can never seem to make the same juice twice.
