Great thread, especially for noobs like myself trying to figure what is what.
The only problem is that the info is spread out all over the place. Maybe you could edit the first post to include all your findings up to this point, and update it as more info is posted. Scanning through the whole thread to find out who supplies what, is kind of a pain. But if it was all listed in the very first post, that would be awesome. :)

Without the thread info on where he came to his conclusions, he would have to put "Might Be" next to almost every entry.

Great thread!
Anyone know about the oval labels with 3 leaves on them. Electronic Ash was selling it in their closeout sale. They wouldn't respond to an email asking where it came from.

Seems to me that if a vendor does not respond to a request for info on the source of their juice, you can assume it's Dekang.

Likewise, if their web site does not indicate any specific info, I'd also assume it's Dekang.

If you have a product that is unique, wouldn't you want to advertise it as such?

Great thread dude! I wanted the same thing but5 thought it was impossible-

What about my favorite? Nhaler- I knows its good stuff.. Probly fixed up by him... I couldn't get a straight answer. I think he mixes his own stuff though.

Now what I do know?- esmokeytreats RY4 was way better than Heavens Gifts RY4 they were not even close to being the same.

So saying they both come from Dekang is misleading. RY4 from esmokeytreats was much sweeter than the RY4 from Heavens Gifts. That was my oppinion anyway.

Maybe Dekang sells suppliers juice at different flavor levels?

Do you mean the white bottle in this pic?

This is SLB brand. I got a bottle of SLB menthol in Electronic Ash's liquidation sale, and I've been trying to track down more ever since, LOL.

I stole this pic from Good Prophets - Rob is selling SLB brand as his New Flavor Liquid. Last time I checked, he only had Unflavored in stock in the 50ml size, but he's got a nice selection of flavors in 10ml if you're looking to try something new... :)

DeKang offers custom flavors, and also sells unflavored liquid. When you buy DeKang from a supplier, you could be getting the standard flavor, a custom flavor, or unflavored juice that the supplier has flavored himself. So it's difficult to judge the source of a liquid based on flavor alone...

Oh great, let's add to the mass confusion!:cry:

JerseyGirl, I don't understand. How can you be JerseyGirl but be from South Florida? If I tell you to meet me at the Lemon, where are we going to meet? :)

Also, I have some questions about your reply. SLB brand? Can you tell me more? Same for Joye brand.

Well, like the majority of folks in south Florida, I'm originally from somewhere else, LOL... Bridge and Tunnel Girl here, Jersey born and bred. Don't mess with me, I will kick your ... into next week. :D

Unfortunately I can't tell you much about SLB or Joye brands. I know they're both manufactured in China. SLB is currently available from Good Prophets, and Joye brand is sold by the Widow, America's Best Buys, and Janty. And neither one has that nasty DeKang chemical taste. That's about the extent of my knowledge... I'm moving into DIY liquids so I'm mostly buying Unflavored at this point, but if I come across any other suppliers of non-DeKang liquid, I'll definitely post the info. FYI, unflavored DeKang does NOT have the perfume/chemical taste and smell...

Also, does anyone know what brand of juice comes in the clear bottles with white caps and clear, round stickers - one for the flavor name and one for the strength? This is what SaveASmoker sells and I really like his juice. I have tried Dekang and Nuvape and IMHO his is much better than either of them.

I have a couple of bottles that look exactly like this. They're 20ml from Vapor4Life, and they're definitely Dekang brand.

Keep in mind that Dekang offers custom flavoring, so there could definitely be multiple versions of the same flavor out there, that taste totally different but are all legitimately Dekang...

I live by this rule now.

Yep. So I'll change my above rule to "if the web does not indicate any specific info, I'd also assume it's not unique."

I'm glad you're looking into this.

I would love to find out if Vermont Vapor "makes their own" but is still using nicotine juice that they get from China. I am pretty sure, almost to the point of being positive, that Johnson Creek does NOT do that though, and if I cared enough I would make the effort to ask them myself.
:)

well I can say their nic juice has no PG cause I get no allergic reaction from it, and my body do NOT like PG I get a reaction even if the amount of PG is small

I got 30ml of Capuccino from AlternaSmokes. Looks like that is on the list as Dekang. I just ordered from Halo (halocigs.com). Has anyone verified where theirs comes from?
note: The Capuccino was great for 2 or 3 weeks, now it smells and tastes like athlete's foot.:( Did I screw up storing it and it spoiled? Now I get tightness in my throat if I vape it.

So where is this American source for pure nic juice??? I have yet to find ONE place to get nic juice in pg or vg that I believe is manufactured in America. If the Nicotine is not extracted and processed in the USA, then its just Chinese juice with fancy flavorings and VG.
Exactly. I have heard many say they make their juice here. But the only one I have heard say they source ALL of components of their juice here is Johnson Creek. I'm not saying they are the only one that does so, but they are the only ones who I have seen confirm it.

I know InnoVapor just released a new line of juice that is entirely made and sourced in the USA. All of the ingredients are pharmaceutical grade and made in a FDA and DEA approved facility.

I know for a fact eliquidplanets usa juice is 100 percent USA made and he doesn't rebottle or repackage anything because in order to open a container and pour it into another container you need a food handling license and a lot of insurance and inspection from the local health dept. So the question to juice suppliers should be....do you have the proper facility and license to make juice or repackage it.
