This finding the "right" juice bites !! I've found 1 e-juice that I really like out of about 10 flavors that I've bought, and I don't know how many I tried. I try all of them before I buy them from the local B&M and the ones I thought tasted good are not good at all after a little while. My local B&M is an hour away so I usually get one 30ml bottle (biggest they have) of the one I LOVE and one of the one I'm trying. Wait 3 days and repeat. I'm starting to wonder if I'd have better luck trying a vendor on-line ?

I'm giving up on the watermelon flavors. Most of them have a metallic taste to me.

I found a Vanilla I'm okay with. Even tried a few from on-line that are pretty bad. Absolutely LOVE the Strawberry Banana Smoothie from the B&M. I'd just like to switch around a little.

I wish we all had the same taste buds !

Does everyone go through this ?

You definitely need to switch it up and try samples from online vendors. It's very possible that the juice from your B&M is just not so great.

+1000! The juice from the B&M in my town is TERRIBLE!!!! I got to the point that I will no longer even step foot in there (that and other reasons). I've had my best luck at online vendors, such as Alien Visions of Good Life Vapor. I would definitely try the online route!

When you got the ejuice from the B&M did they mix it for you fresh? If so it will take a week or more before it will taste as good as it did in the store. They were letting you taste ejuice that had steeped/aged/matured and was at its prime. Usually around a week is when most freshly mixed juice will start tasting good, some do take longer depending on how complex the recipe is. If they are just simple flavors then it shouldn't be but a couple of days to a week. Make sure you really shake those bottles good before filling your topper. I hope this helps. :vapor:

I was reading on here, and just ordered 3 bottles from Lucky 7. After finishing my order and seeing how cheap it was I'm kinda scared now ?
You won't be dissapointed with your lucky 7 order. Everything I've tried from them is very decent. I bought 36 12 ml bottles to sample. Haven't found a bad one yet. It will take a bit to get to you though. 2-4 days processing, then shipping time. Good luck finding a good juice for you. Everyone is different.

a lot of people switch flavors during the say just to keep the taste buds balanced.

If you like your b&m and you can try out flavors there and especially if they mix stuff for you then I think you should take advantage of that to get to know the right flavors. Meanwhile experiment with some level of diy liquids.
And as was suggested - unflavored is also an important base eliquid to have; if you don't like your unflavored, then you ain't gonna like any flavor so get the unflavored right first

If my vaping career was solely based on my local b&m I wouldnt have made it pass the first day.

Luckily the friend that got me into vaping recommended a great vendor. Mister E was my first and still in my adv rotation. Good average prices and he makes extremely good juice. Try any of there juices.

Anyone who tells you this is cheaper is lying to you. Atleast in the beginning unless your that rare person(like myself) and find a goto vendor out of the gate. Dont buy big, until you figure out what type of juices you like.

I also recommend lucky7(not tobacco until proven otherwise) fruits and desert are really good. And they have a low risk price.

Goodlife vapor is another that have a nice line of juices. Cant go wrong(most of the time) with almost any of the recommended vendors on this site.

We have about 150 stores here. I haven't found one that makes great juice. If they don't carry premium juice, I don't get any. I order online. I've tried plume room. I tried banana pudding and cherry cream soda. Pretty meh in my opinion. To each their own. Goodlife vapor is the best I've tried. I like bakery and tobacco so it's right up my alley. And the prices are reasonable to say the least. Warning. Their juice is like crack. I usually keep suicide bunny around in case I run out. But I try to reorder before I run dry. Taste is subjective, but there are some good juice makers out there obviously. I think the key is finding one with a palate similar to yours. Or just get bacon e liquid and say f it.

+ 1 on mr e liquid. I was lucky enough to find a local that carried a good portion of his line. I'm with you on the b&m juice as well. I found mr e my second week. Tried lots of others. But his ry4 was the first juice I could go thru bottles of. Then I tried suicide bunny derailed, and I was ruined. Turned me into a juice snob. I was already a beer snob. Tried all the 5 pawns including the new line, but they're not for me. Goodlife rules them all in my opinion. But I still haven't tried any of ahlusion, vapor chef, virgin vapes. Axiom is pretty good.

I have been letting them steep & breath

I ordered three bottles a few weeks back all were good, ordered five more tonight add the flavor shots too I love flavor. I am picky on juice have tried tons and many fell short. I can't use metal drip tips because it changes the flavors too much. Also what topper are you using? I use IBTanked, hyper tanks, aero tanks and aspire tanks my fav is the IBTanked personally I love carto tanks good luck. I Also use a Kay fun clone that I love!
