What is this syrup taste?

[jwhite83]

I kinda just started. What is this syrup taste it get? It seems like all of the flavors have it?!?

My brother has greensmoke and V2's.

I have ego twist w/ HHV Dragon Fire, Heavenly tobacco, Dark Horse and Huntsman.

ALL of them taste like they have syrup or honey in them or something. It is a huge turnoff.

The only one of those I get honey from is Dragon's Fire. Did you let them steep any?

Not everyone likes HHV juice, you may be one of them. Put them aside for a week or so and try them again.

Maybe maple syrup is not the best description.

They all taste sweet. Like honey, syrup, sugar ect...

 

[gthompson]

Well, Dragon's Fire and Heavenly tobacco are supposed to be sweet, and they certainly are, but not so much the other two. I'm not sure what's up with that, other than HHV tobaccos need a little steep time.

I found that many of my EC juices had that mapley sweet flavor to them. I put them aside to give them some time... a couple of them were way too much for me. PG in and of itself has a faint sweetness to it, and the flavors unsteeped may just need some time to blend.

With the possible exception of Dark Horse, none of the HHV tobaccos taste anything like a cigarette, so if that's what you're expecting, that could be part of the problem.

If you are pretty new to vaping it could just be your taste buds. It has amazed me how much my sense of smell and taste has improved over the past two years. Remember to drink plenty of water along the way as well. If your just getting starting...tuck back anything you don't care for now and try it again in a couple of months...you might be surprised at the difference.

I thought that VG had sweetness to it not PG.

gthompson: Yes, I am looking for cigarette taste. I have found a couple of "Ashtray" flavors. I ordered "Ashtray" from Parkes vapor with a PG/VG of 90/10.

I am concerned I did the wrong thing because of the PG/VG ratio. I thought that VG was the sweeter ingredient

I don't know which is sweeter to taste, but both are from what I've read.

"Propylene glycol, also called 1,2-propanediol or propane-1,2-diol, is an organic compound (a diol or double alcohol) with formula C3H8O2 or HO-CH2-CHOH-CH3. It is a colorless, nearly odorless, clear, viscous liquid with a faintly sweet taste hygroscopic and miscible with water, acetone, and chloroform."

 

[gthompson]

Both are sweetish, VG is a little sweeter.

 

[jwhite83]

One of them must be to culprit...for me anyway

I ordered a 90/10 as well as a 20/80....So well see. Thanks for the help guys!

When vaping pure glycerin (vg) from Wal-Mart, two things surprised me about it.. 1, how really sweet it tastes putting a drop on my tounge, and 2, how little of that sweetness transfers when vaping. Vaping it, it's almost like breathing air until I exhale a HUGE cloud. The hint of sweetness is extremely faint, so I doubt it has much effect on a juice flavor.

Tastebuds are weird and can't be trusted for a bit after you quit smoking. I don't remember getting hardly any sweetness from Dark Horse. More like grassy, and very good.
