I'm going to be "gifting" a Vamo V5 an a ZMAX Mini with Kayfuns to a couple of neighbors who are trying to quit. Intercepting some potential critiques: kayfun probably not the best for a beginner, but it's all I've got for spare tanks right now and I'll rebuild for them. :D

That said ... if you were brand new, which e-liquid from Nicoticket do you think would best help them get off the analogs?

I have the following that I'm willing to use in their newly built Kayfuns, the top 4 are all well steeped:
1. Frenilla
2. Creme Brûlée
3. Grandma's Cinnamon Danish
4. Gravity
5. Wakonda
6. The Virus

They both like sweets/deserts, so I'm thinking two from the top 4 at this point... all liquids are 12mg.

Remember, their taste buds will be shot most likely. So I wouldn't go with anything TOO light in flavor. (There was a new member posting on the New Member's Forum yesterday that he/she could not taste Frenilla at all - fresh juice with dull taste buds and inexperience at using the equipment could be responsible). I, personally, would pick Gravity, GCD, Virus or Wakonda, and ACB if you can get your hands on some - if not go with CB.
Either way, what you are doing for them is HUGE. Nice job!

Edit: :facepalm: I see you said PICK TWO. :facepalm:
GCD and Gravity - only because they are so different from each other.

GCD, Wakonda, and Virus. I have started many a new vaper on those with excellent results. If you were to pick only one I would say Virus and let them sample Wakonda and GCD to see which they prefer.

GCD and Gravity it is! Thanks all. I like the glaring difference between the two, and strong flavors for dead taste buds. Hoping that strategy is sound to increase likelihood of success. Additionally, I'm very hesitant to give even a drop of The Virus away. hehe. :D

Do you have enough strong 18mg flavors? I have some to spare, but they aren't steeped yet.

I've only got liquids in 12mg, unfortunately. Hopefully it's enough for them. They smoke ultra lights, mostly socially/when drinking. And they're heavy drinkers. hah

EDIT: I'll be sure to let them know in my thorough briefing that higher strengths and varieties are easily available from a company not too far to the west of us (NT :D)

Well, good. 12mg sounds perfect to them. Bless you for helping them! Me and some of my fellow Nicoticket friends helped me get a friendly lady off the smokes on Christmas Eve. It made my day knowing that I helped someone. Hopefully you'll have the same good feelings.

Clark said something once that has rang true for me. He said most new vapors are looking for something that tastes like the tobacco they are used to (we all wonder why now). Then they move quickly on to fruits, then bakery and then back to flavored tobaccos.

I moved through fruits in a month, still love some bakery but am hooked on Radio, love Wakanda and just ordered another bottle of The Virus after giving the first one away six months ago. He was right. Again. :)

I think GCD and a fruit is the right choice.

I would have to go with The Virus, especially since you say yours is well steeped.

The hard part is that some people don't like the sweetness of most jooses. I've been trying to get a friend to quit analogs, but every joose he's tried has been too sweet. If someone truly enjoys the taste of an analog, it can be hard to make the switch. Something like The Virus just might show them how could "tobacco" can taste!
Good luck, hope it works!

I've got to go with what's behind door number 1 and 2 for absolute beginners and a Kayfun. Door 3 if it has some steep on it as to not shock their sensitive palates.
