Too sweet of a taste

[VIVAP2]

My wife wants now to switch to vaping. I have been vaping since a month or two and I finaly got her interested to vaping instead of smoking Accord. She tried Green Smoke, Juicy Clear and other flavors: Full tobacco, Red Label, Marly, Dummay, Export, Camel... Everything is too sweet for her. Any suggestion?

Jokesmoke is a great choice. Rugged Blend or Prairie Blend from GRBC, too, they're kind of spicy and not the least bit sweet.

or maybe addin abit of some flavor art bitter wizard

If she finds flavors like JC Hexport to be too sweet, then she's just going to have to accept that vaping is different than smoking. PG (and VG) naturally has a slightly sweet taste to it. Juices like Hexport and Dumay were not designed to be sweet, so finding something LESS sweet will be quite the challenge.

You may have better luck reducing the sweetness by using a higher wattage set up. Either LR atomizers/cartomizers, or a high/vari-volt device can make it taste a little harsher, often in a good way. Another option is to try the tank system. I find it to be a drier vape, and the flavors are muted.

Remind her that very few people like the taste of a cigarette the first time they try it. There is an adjustment period just like there was when smoking. Moreover, there are many different set ups and juice combinations. It takes time to find something that hits the nail on the head for different people.

Jokesmoke nearly has any taste at all, but produces a TON of vapor. Not much throat hit though, but as suggested, on a higher voltage setting it might be enough.

The GF uses jokesmoke 50/50 blend all the time. It seems to be very smooth, lots of vapor, and no funny flavors to it. You could always see if she would like a menthol to get started. Good Luck

Hey VivaP2, if you are coming to the vape Meet on Dec 11th in Fredericton, I'll let you try a few of my tobaaco flavours. Pure Cig, Cuban Supreme are really good, and I have something like 8 or 9 flavors for her to try, I'm sure she'll find at least one she likes.

I wish I could. We all deserve to taste new liquids. There should be more Vape Meet all acros Canada !

Could she also be tasting some sweetness from too high a vg mix? I've heard that vg has its own kind of sweetness to itself. I'm not sure if I'm talking out of my ... when I state that, but I remember hearing something like that when I tried my hand at DIY....and failed miserably at it.

You're not talking out of your donkey - VG adds sweetness.

Ok, thanks for confirming that kanadiankat . I've found my "brand" of vaping juice that I've stuck with since april so I barely venture into different mixes now.
