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.

I am vaping Virgin Vapors Carmel Kona Milk Shake now. It is cool how it is coffee flavored but has a really light color. It tastes amazing too. What color are those too? Do they gunk up your equipment?

I just checked to see if I tried that one and I have not. So far the most tolerable coffee flavor I have found is Kona Cream by Top Vapes. I am most disappointed by all the flavors I ordered from Vaper Dudes. Someone recommended them but I tried Coffee, Hot Blonde (also a coffee flavor, Ice Ice, and Lemon Ice and did not care for any of them. Taste is relative:glare: and so variable but you would think at least 1 out of 4 juices would be good

I like my sweet vapes way too much to recommend anything, plus I'm still a noob at this. I am trying a Copper Creek flavor called 'Cake'. Not a strong vape, actually a little faint for my taste, but it tastes like those plain little yellow cakes you might but at a store. Not overly sweet or strong, just a soft smooth vape. I don't see how anyone could complain unless they're the type that want a vape that slaps them in the face and ignites their throat- too mild for that !

The Coffee Monkey is clear not coloured and nothing I've got from VV has gunked anything of mine up. They vape beautifully.
I haven't tried the caramel kona just the velvet. And I never thought that I would like coffee in a vape but I LOVE it!

Gandalf is perfect!! Especially for noobs, since noobs always think they want that analog taste. For me, Gandalf is the absolute closest taste to an analog, hands down! I wasted a lot of money on tobacco blends, looking for that marb taste I was missing.. HHV has become my go-to vendor. Their fruits are pretty darn fantastic too.

I have now tried HHV's Huntsman for the past few days. It's a little too grassy for me, but still vapable. Probably won't re-order. Now onto Dragon's Fire. Oh and I'm still vaping Gandalf daily and re-ordered it when I ordered HHV's other tobaccos.

Huntsman too "grassy?" I thought Dark Horse had a vegetal quality to it at first but it steeped away. Well, we all taste something different. It should be noted, I suggested Gandalf as the Universal Suggestion. LOL If you can't vape Huntsman, I know of somebody who will gladly vape it! :lol::sneaky::lol:

CRAB JUICE!!! :laugh:

My vote is for Vermillion River Juice - Florida Citrus Explosion, its good for the mouth, good for the nose and good for everyone around you!

Ron -

*and BWB Casablanca

EEEEEWWWWWWWWWW...Florida Citrus Explosion is similar to the sour taste in your mouth after hurling. If a noob tried that as their first juice they may swear off vaping altogether! :p

Well, it is called "Explosion"..hahaha

Seriously though, Vermillion should age about a month after receiving it, at least with the Kentucky Premium line. While I have never had this juice, I can attest to Vermillion tasting tremendously different after some age has has occurred. It almost reminds me of those Cheez-It commercials where the lab tech is waiting on the cheese to mature.

Maybe I should try Huntsman - grassy sounds good to me. I tried Dark Horse before Gandalf and prefer Gandalf though I thing those two are pretty similar.

Huntsman is closer to Gandalf. I like all three plus Pirate's Booty and Dragon's Fire, though Pirate's Booty is my least favorite. Actually I think Gandalf, Dark Horse, and Huntsman are all equally loved by me and Dragon's Fire is very much liked... Pirate's Booty is at the very least "good."

I haven't tried Dark Horse yet. I have it, but I'm trying these one at a time, over several days, to give them an honest try. I really want to like these, as I can't stand any of the popular candy, fruit, and dessert flavors.

While I don't find Huntsman too (I left an "o" out earlier:facepalm:) "grassy", the vegetal or "grassy" quality is what you get when you deal with actual tobacco. Some tobaccos will have it more than others, but for me it lets me know that I am getting what is advertised. Vegetal qualities suggests vegetation and vegetation, in this instance, suggests plants named tobacco from the genus Nicotiana. :laugh:

Placing my vote for unflavored. I figured someone would have to have suggested this, but searching the thread for unflavored didn't find anything, so...there you go.

I just hooked up a friend with a 650 eGo with a SmokTech carto with some 24mg unflavored nic in it. I did this partly because I couldn't get them a good tobacco juice to start off, but I had the inkling it might work out. Their first impression: "that's not bad...oh, that's not bad at all". They shared with their friend, and that person (not someone that was really looking to switch to vaping) has said "that could actually work". Seemed pretty positive to me. It's still being used regularly (though not exclusively) a few days in.

I vape mostly unflavored myself, but certainly enjoy a number of flavors still. I don't think it's a bad idea at all though to have a new vaper give this a try early on. It's certainly one of the least offensive juices you could offer up (assuming a good-tasting nic, of course).

Never tried it, but I cannot argue with this reasoning. Original choice.
