2010-what I liked
Lets get right to it...broken into various categories


Best tobacco vape
- (to include flavored tobaccos)
Alien Visions E-Juice Boba's Bounty or Gorilla Juice
There are a lot of good Tobacco vapes out there right now, from the pure flavor of vaperites line to the nice blends in backwoods brew...but for me these smokey treats from Alien Visions are the ones I find myself vaping when I want a nice tobacco flavor...Boba's Bounty is a nice spice infused turkish blend with hints of vanilla or coconut...its hard to pin down the flavor but under it all is a hint of a smokey taste and a good tobacco flavoring, this captures the feel of smoking a nice tobacco more than most flavors I have tried, excellent vapor, good TH for a 100% VG and the bottle it comes in even rocks.
...and then add a bit of a plantain taste and remove the spice..but keep the smokey!..and you have Gorilla Juice...another excellent tobacco flavored juice, though certainly more of a flavored tobacco, and probably not something possible with a normal cigar or pipe blend

Best True to the Name Vape-

This is one of my favorite things, when a juice tastes like what they describe...if you say it taste like an apple I want to taste apple not sour apple gum...otherwise just name it sour apple gum. There were many outstanding ones here...from ave irish cream to vaperite rootbeer but the winner is

Backwoods Brew - Peach
You can tell this is peach when you open the bottle, and when you finally vape it man...it is down right peachy...not candy peach or jolly rancher peach or peach gum peach...but peaches in a can peach...peaches off a tree peach...gourmet peach ice cream made with real peaches peach. Vapor Production was good and TH was ok. But without a doubt you can tell your vaping on a peach flavor when you use this stuff

This is also my favorite flavor to mix into others as it makes "peach" anything with just a few drops.

Best Dessert Vape-
you know this one, you get it and its good..sometimes really good...but it is so sweet or overpowering that 10 puffs later you put it down and go for something else....but then go back to it a few hours later...not something for your cartomizer but you find yourself dripping it every now and again anyway. I find a lot of coconut flavored vapes fall into this category as well.

Vaperite - Toffee

This is a good juice...reminds me of a werthers original candy to be honest...a rather strong, on a LR atty, flavor that just tastes good, like a nice buttery toffee...however after awhile it gets to me and the sweetness overwhelms me so I put it down...but even as I type this I am tempted to go drip it into an atty and give it a spin
Vapor is excellent TH- hardly any at all ...just a smooth vape for when you want something candy like.

Best "Hard to Mess this one up" Flavor-
Some people just can't do some things right...your favorite coffee flavor vendor just might not be able to nail beverage based flavors...but there is one flavor that I feel comfortable ordering from anywhere because whether its lorann's or Dekang custom made it just works
Anyone - Vanilla

Liberty Flights Does it, Volcano Does it, Vaperite Does it, Vaporrenu does it...its hard to find someone who doesn't have a vanilla... and most of the time it is something you can vape...it may not be wonderful but its hard to screw this one up completely

Best All Day Vape-

This ones easy for me, and of course your mileage may vary, but I just counted up the number of bottles I got through in a month and the clear winner is

www.vaperite.com Organic Kona Cream

If the vaping world collapsed and godzilla ate every single vendor out there but left an unending supply of Kona Cream from vaperite...I could still be happy vaping...Just an enormous amount of vapor..seriously its 100% VG but it puts many other VG juices to shame in vapor production. The Taste is an amazing coffee flavor with a nice creamy addition and a hint of sweet...definitely not overly sweet just pleasantly so, TH is really not that strong but I never really craved TH anyway. The taste isn't going to overpower you but its strong enough to be noticed it just sits nicely on the sweet spot.

This juice accounts for about 60% of my vaping, I always have it in a cartomizer ready to go. I like it at 3.7 volts, I like it at 5v...but honestly with this much vapor its just fine at 1.5-2.5 ohms on an eGo. I vape this in the morning, I vape it in the evening its just good all day long.




and..thats it
Of course we all have different taste buds, I find myself preferring mostly VG juices, not for allergy reasons they just taste better to me, but these are the ones I liked in 2010...lets see what 2011 brings in the form of new things to vape and new things to vape on.

Thanks for Reading,
happy holidays

Hard to argue with you on the VapeRite flavors, Kona Coffee and English Toffee are killer! Can't agree with you on vanilla; I've had some that don't taste anything like it. Alien Vision is said to have a right-on Irish Cream flavor, which I have to try. Another dead-on flavor to try is Butterscotch Cookie from Pure Vapes; this is THE BEST flavor I have ever tried, spot on and exact taste, amazing!
Now if anyone could come up with a Heath Bar flavor that's dead on, I'd invest my money on them!

@SmokingBullet
Just curious if the butterscotch cookie tastes like an oatmeal scotchie cookie? I've been looking and looking for that flavor for awhile now.

The 100% organic tobacco from vaperite is very good...its a bit like a straight tobacco taste, I think Boba's bounty has a smokey quality that better replicates actually smoking tobacco...and for that I like it when I want to simulate that smoking a cigar sensation....but your right vaperite is a good clean taste.

It's too bad that FSUSA didn't make it into that list.

Heh,
Don't hold your breath on that one
to this day I don't understand FSUSA fangirls and boys. I have had 3 of their flavors from friends who vape, a coffee a tobacco (I think it was a desert ship type but I know it wasn't wyatt earp) and one other...they were all ok but nothing I would go out of my way to order. The few flavors I want to try from FSUSA I get discouraged by the fact that it will possibly scar my lungs and I get tired of playing the flavorart "does it have diacetyl cross reference game.

Maybe in 9 months or so when I am sure they have used up all their diacetyl hypnotic mist and caramels I will give them another shot.

@ GoldenKobold: I thought the diacetyl was only used in butter flavors?

I like many flavors I've gotten from FSUSA. I wouldn't consider myself a fan-boy (or *anybody's "boy"), but I do like some of their flavors.

What I don't understand about FSUSA's fans is the love of Wyatt Urp (my spelling). The exhale smells like poopy baby diaper. Also, I've had wa-a-ay better RY4's than theirs. But come on! They can't use diacetyl in everything. And scarred lungs? If you've been an analog smoker for longer than say, five years, I think you can bet on already having "scarred lungs." I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin'...

:lol::lol::lol: Then you haven't tasted the infamous Vanilla Ice Cream whose maker shall remain nameless. :facepalm:

Thank you for the nice review. I happen to agree with your choices. Never tried Vaperite's Toffee; how does it compare to BWB Malty Toffee or Cignot's Toffee? Is it very sweet? I love Vaperite's flavors but some of them are just too sweet for my taste.
