Hi everyone, it's been a while since I've posted here, but I'm looking for a little help.
I've been vaping on my Geekvape aegis and tobacco flavored juice from vaping Zone. I get my eliquid from a store called Switch to Vapor out in Modesto. The juice is great and has a ton of throat hit. The only problem is vaping Zone is no longer shipping to California.

So, I'm looking for recommendations on tobacco flavored liquid with a good throat hit. The stuff I'm finding locally is very high in VG and low in PG so throat hit is almost nothing. If anyone has recommendations, I would love to hear.

    Seems like a tricky situation.

    Not living in California, nor having dealt with Vaping Zone, I can only offer precursory suggestions. Upon looking at the VZ website and their tobacco offerings, it seems like they offer the usual generic flavors.

    You can try your hand at making your own juice, depending on if you can even get nicotine delivered to you. Or, look for a basic alternative such as Dekang or Hangsen. Though, I’m unsure about the availability of those brands these days.

    Living out here in California I am also trying to figure out where/how to get more juice. I stocked up at the end of 2024, so I have enough for a month or two more. But not sure how it will work now. I know that they banned flavored juice, but haven't gone to look to see what the "unflavored" juice is like. Some online sites I have seen are just not shipping to California at all.

    Will be interesting. Maybe this will finally force me to quit. My wife has been asking me to, but I just haven't been able to kick it. Nor do I really want to I guess.

    Not in CA, either, but the CA Attorney General website has this, (bolding and color mine.) If I'm reading that right, you should still be able to get tobacco "flavor" juice.

    A characterizing flavor is “a distinguishable taste or aroma, or both, other than the taste or aroma of tobacco, imparted by a tobacco product or any byproduct produced by the tobacco product. Characterizing flavors include, but are not limited to, tastes or aromas relating to any fruit, chocolate, vanilla, honey, candy, cocoa, dessert, alcoholic beverage, menthol, mint, wintergreen, herb, or spice.”

    Thanks for the info. Guess I will find out in about a month or so when I try to order more juice. :)
