I have to chime in...grand prairie from vape dudes...stuff is great! its considered a tobacco blend but I dont really get a tobacco taste from it. Its me and my husbands only "share" juice. I like my many flavors of juice he likes his tobaccos. Its sweet but mild and soooo good! very good middle ground. I've tried all his juices and this is the only one I keep vaping. Would recommend to anyone and have recommended to many of my friends who wanted to begin vaping. No complaints on it yet! I think its a pretty safe vape. plus its good right out of the mail...but keeps getting better and better as it steeps. Great stuff!

I have to agree on the Universal recommendation of BWB's Malty and throw in the Malty Toffee for good measure. These are some all around good juices to have on hand when nothing seems to be hitting your taste buds just right. I break into my husband's stash occasionally...eventually he is going to tell me to get my own.:glare:

Bakery vapes....Ms. T's Bakery Essentials. Sorry, but there is no one that has come close to what I have found when it comes to her Strawberry Shortcake and Blueberry Pie.

Vapedudes also gets a recommendation. Out of the 6 juices I tried from them, I liked 5 and their Blue Cupcake is absolutely delightful. Thats a pretty damn good ratio for a first time order.

So it came today. I am undecided about it. It has what seems like a hint of coffee in it. It's not strong, which is the only reason I'm continuing to vape it, because I really hate coffee. Maybe it will grow on me. I'll give it a few more days. Boba's didn't wow me the first time either. I did just convert a friend to vaping who loves coffee. I may end up giving it to her.

Well, I'm sold. Just ordered their sample pack with Gandalf, Dragons Fire, Dark Horse and Huntsman. Finally a company that does 12mg nic on sample sizes! :headbang:

I finally tried all four of these and I can report back with a thumbs up overall. All have a nice feel to their vapor...feels different from lab tobaccos; more like smoke.

Gandalf has a nice tobacco base and a faint chocolate raspberry/strawberry tint. Possibly a little too fruity for my liking. When I exhale I sometimes get a dry, wood chip aftertaste that I don't really care for. (I've experienced this dry, wood, campfire taste and feel with most other extracted tobaccos I've tried too...)

Huntsman is just like Gandalf but without the strawberry/raspberry tint, which I like.

Dragons Fire has more chocolate than the rest, and a maybe tiny bit of spice. Unlike Gandalf and Huntsman, I don't get the dry wood(cedar?) taste, which is awesome.

And Dark Horse is the same; I get absolutely none of that wood taste, and the flavor is straightforward tobacco, kind of mellow..maybe a touch of chocolate. This is one I'd definitely reorder. I find it very close to a cigarette. Excellente! :2cool:

So, Gandalf, it's growing on me. I'm not in love with it, but for some reason, I still seem to pick it up several times a day. Maybe I need to stay out of this sub-forum, as I now have 3 juices I vape daily. So much for one all day vape...

Variety is the spice of life! :)

Besides, this way your taste buds won't go numb. :laugh:

im not very good at describing flavors either, but Vapian is. he totally nails the flavor description of Enigma IMO (and the other ones too). and speaking of Quick Nic, im gonna go ahead and shout out their Citrus Punch. its a must-have for me.

VwV - Quick Nic Nicquid Review- YouTube

I feel this way about Enigma from QuickNicJuice...I really like that juice, but really have no idea what it tastes like. And they don't tell you on the site...it basically says "try and figure it out, you'll love it" Very smooth & easy vape....but I can't pinpoint the flavors in there for the life of me.

Just got my big bottle of Cinapear from Heather's Heavenly Vapes. Also got sample sizes of Gandalf and Razzberry. I like them both a lot and of course I love the Cinapear. Have to give a shout out to:vapor:Options Help : Heathers Heavenly Vapes, Top Quality Custom E-Liquids HHV for excellent customer service. They actually called me to say they had changed the website and lost some of the folks signed up for accounts. I had fired off a couple of emails cus I could not place an order. I got it straightened out and the guy (forget his name) said that the orders were running a bit late cus they were going on their honeymoon - I also got an email with that info. While I had him on the line I explained to him my quest for the perfect coffee flavor. I tried one of their versions and it missed the mark for me. He explained that there was a little hazelnut in there. I said I just want a really pure coffee taste with no caramel, hazelnut etc. He said that when they got back he would ask Heather to start working on one. Couple days ago I got a message that my order was on the way and Heather reaffirmed that when she has time she will be working on a new coffee flavor. Such nice people and really solid liquid. So nice to find a company I really want to stick with. If you have not tried them yet you should!

It is definitely a satisfying experience when you have actual people to talk to beyond a site. Adam and Heather are working very hard to satisfy and I commend them for that...in addition to making some delightful liquids.

We know how fussy and finicky we can be, but I would place my bet on HHV's Gandalf as a universally acceptable suggestion for nu-vapers or the experienced. Obviously everyone won't love/like it, but I doubt if anyone would be turned off!

What would yours be and why?
That is interesting. So if you wanted a woody tobacco extraction Gandalf would not be it?
Any ways my universal juice recommendation is Virgin Vapors Sweet Summer Lemonade. Because it performs like no other even in a 50 50 mix and the fusion of tarte and sweetness is great. Here is a video of me vaping it with Koolaid. It is tart and sweet and no hind of orange peels which plague most citrus vapes I have tried. Has anyone else tried this great ejuice? Here is the ECF thread on it which has more info.

I;m still wondering if there is anyone out there who has tried both Enigma from QuickNic and Gandalf from HHV. I still think there is something similar about the two....even though Enigma is not a tobacco juice. I just also found it funny that Gandalf was Mr,Mann's (and a few others as well) suggestion on this thread, and Enigma was mine and some other folks too....then when I ended up trying Gandalf (which I loved), i was defininitely sensing some similarities somehow.

Would love to know if anyone else thought the same, or if I am just totally off my rocker! LOL

No one does coffee better than Annette at Virgin Vapor. IMO. Try the Dark Turkish Roast or any of the others. My fav is Coffee Monkey. Just pure coffee and a hint of banana. Simple and wonderful.
