I've tried about 30-40 different flavors now and hate almost all of them by themselves.

However, you can combine different things and get a taste you can agree with.

I've bought a couple dozen kits of various things here (with the hope of selling them to friends and family - and have them pay for my toys). It's worked out. I've now broken even.

When I show my friends the flavors and have them try them.......almost all the time, they go "Yuck".... When I show them mixes I've made and have them try them, they're all like "Wow...that tastes great...! So I end up mixing them up a batch in a needle bottle and sending them on their way.

This will probably not work for everyone as mixes differ....but.....my biggest hit so far has been 15 drops of Dunhill 18mg, 30 drops of Cherry 6mg, 10 drops of Apple 12mg and 5 drops of Blackberry 0mg. (adjust nic levels to what you have)

You get the TH from the tobacco flavor plus the combined sweet from everything else.

I just mixed in a little ecto plasma from juicy vapor with some lasso from gotvapes a few days ago and it was awesome. The ecto plasma is great but a little strong in flavor so cutting it with what I consider a pretty decent tobacco really worked for me.

I'm jealous.....I wish I could get those types of flavors over here. I have a friend that's on business in the US and due to return in a month. Maybe he can carry me a few bottles back and save me shipping and customs.....

Seems to be a pretty standard response I think. Allot of the premixed stuff tastes horrid...... and as for the Dunhill.... my nickname for that is dunGhill as it has to be the worst tasting thing I have EVER vaped, not to mention stinks out the entire room with its essense, but maybe that was a bad batch I had.

I have just ordered today a DIY mixing kit with about 6 different flavours ranging from Tobbaco all the way to Sex on the beach flavour.. Could be interesting, and for sure I will post my results on ECF.

Does it have the aftertaste like artificial sweetener?

That would depend on how sensitive your taste buds are, it is a matter of personal taste, lol, some people are more sensitive than others. Nothing beats a taste test, so buy a bottle for $2 and taste for yourself. For me, straight from the bottle, it has a ever so slight lingering flavor, but after I mix it in with my juice I am hard pressed to identify it as a solo flavor since the flavor of the juice comes alive for me.

I'm diabetic.

Got you beat there, I judge my coffee sugar intake by a third of the size of the coffee cup, regardless of volume of coffee being drank - I fill the vessel a third of the way with sugar before I put the coffee in. My whole life I have been able to ingest levels of sugar that would be toxic to others, and my liver/pancreas function is still great at age 44. I'm a mutant. Not suggested for anybody else, but I could probably survive for a month or more on just sugar alone.
 
Where do you order the DIY kit?

You can get the DIY supplies from most vendors who sell e-cig stuff. What you need to get started is
- PG and/or VG with Nicotine
- PG and/or VG without any nicotine
- Flavorings (choose whatever you like, mix, match and experiment!)

Apart from that bottles, syringe and pipette are useful.

Alternatively you can get started trying to combine premade juices and seeing what happens. Experimenting is part of the fun for me.

Hah, I just last night had one of my more unsuccessful combinations. I was trying out Alice in Vapeland's Creamsicle and found it a little too acidic. I grabbed a sample of Cake that Copper Creek sent me with a recent order and added a few drops.
Orange and cake... sounds like it couldn't go wrong, right?
It ended up tasting wretched.(ーー;)

Grats on your mixology wins!
