Geoff's blend from tasty vapor. It was like vaping spearmint chewing gum. Some may love that but I didn't!

Funny to see that, cuz it's what I'm vaping right now :) I like it, but I'm not a connoisseur of fine flavors yet; I've tried only about six so far; three zero-nic no-names from esmokeronline that I got along with my first real kit, a Joye eGo-T (apple, blueberry, and double mint, and three so far from Tasty Vapor; Atomic Cinnacide (yum, but very sweet for all-day vaping); Kretek (clove), fantastic; and the Geoff's Blend. Just don't want anyone thinking that it categorically sucks, because as I say, I think it's quite nice. (I get more of a "cinammon, vanilla, and cream" vibe from it). I can't wait to try about 30 of the flavors I keep hearing about, but a refill of Geoff's Blend will be on my shopping list.

Obviously, flavors are insanely subjective. Case in point, I wouldn't mind vaping some Spearmint Gum flavor right now. :)

Vape on, all.

I don't understand the surprise. Very few people smoked the same brand of cigs either. I remember having to be really hard up to smoke a menthol cigarette when I was out of my brand. I would get the nicotine out of it but did not enjoy it one bit. The only menthol cigarette I could smoke more than one of was newport.

Kona coffee can be hit and miss to great, all in the same day. When it's on, it's great. Tomorrow I might not think so, for awhile anyway. Some days I can hit it for hours on end and be afraid of running out.

I also think a lot happens from when juice suppliers start out and when they get known a bit and have to start mixing bulk. A little off with a 15% flavor mix might not be much when you are doing a pint or quart, but a gallon at a time the difference could be a lot more. I would think that juice suppliers need a brewmaster to taste their finished products throughout.

Being that most of these flavors that are being used are not designated for vaping, where a slight difference may not be noticeable in a food product, a slight change could be disastrous in a vaporizer liquid.

I couldn't stand Boba's Bounty when I first tried it, I was baffled by all of the hype....but after 2-3 weeks I gave it another shot and pretty much vaped it non-stop until it was gone. Ended up ordering a bigger bottle. LOL

2 others that I just can't seem to enjoy that so many others rave about is the RY4 and eJokers from BWB. I get a very strong perfumey taste from both. It's been a couple of weeks...so I'm going to give them more time. I'm a huge fan of BWB, and I'd say 80% of my juices are from there...so I can't figure out why I don't like those!

"Everything I tried from Vapor 4 Life" Hilarious! I seriously threw away 4 pre-filled boxes of cartos after trying each one. There was no need to think about it! Sorry to all those who love.


My worst flavor was Highbrow malt. The taste was similar (tried to forget) to not quite, but practically spoiled milk with a bit of morning breath overtones. Now, that is really high brow:facepalm::facepalm:

I went into V4L's store. They have a room with all these filled cartos. They give you an 808 to use to vape them. I tried 20 - 30 flavors. They were all pretty bad. I ended up buying bottles of about 6 or 8 different ones. They were really expensive - they only have large bottles 30 or 50 ml. Expensive mistake. The only one that was decent was some kind of vanilla cappuccino - that was okay.

That is one of those experiences that scares me. For a newbie, they may think, "Well, I've tried many flavors from this one place, and they all sucked so therefore...". I'd say there are as many if variances in flavor and quality of e-liquid to beer and wine. Subjectivity is a weird thing, you know?

Let it steep for a few weeks then try it.

Hmmm

DeKang Ry4 is not a fav. Shame as I have 20ml of it.
Vermillion Rivers tobacco juices, sorry I know they have their fans but can't do it. Love the Citrus but there is a woody chemically deal going on with the tobacco flavours that while have toned down with steeping I can't help but hate.
altcigs Bob's Knutter Clutter, again you will see good reviews of this however I start gacking as soon as I have dripped it let alone vaped.

Now for some really popular ones lol

KBV

WTF ! Well with a name like that it has to be....well bland actually. Had me saying that. It has a lot of nearly flavours without leaving you anything to grab on to. It and it's brethren below fail to please for the reason Boba's does.
OMG ! I refer you to the line above but this is slightly more nasty to my palate.
Hummingbird Nectar oh dear. I know I should have been expecting a florally vape and this has it but with a gaseous nature that I don't really like to well.

Going to revisit KBV as looking at their reviews I guess I have just been unlucky.

I HATE Torque 56 from halo and also their prime 15 smells so nasty like old mildewey mop heads. I have a love hate relationship with Dekang liquids. I have probably tried 50 liquids now from maybe 10 different vendors but so far I only love 2 and both are from Dekang. Camel (desert ship) and cheese cake. I hate this because I want to love more liquids than just dekang and I feel like people think I am crazy because if I didnt know any better I would drink the camel I love it so much.
