If you have any inclination at all to try some DYI, you might want to take a look at what Jimi D. is doing in this thread: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/diy-e-liquid/265155-jimis-complex-cigarette.html. I haven't tried this exact version, but I've been liking an earlier version he had posted elsewhere. BTW, there are probably a lot of people here who will be quick to tell you that you can't duplicate a cigarette flavor with e-liquid and furthermore that there's something wrong with wanting such a thing. They may be right about the first part: Duplicate, no--approximate, maybe, so far. But if anybody ever does come out with something that all agree tastes like a cigarette, believe me, they will find many customers in the vaping world.

erm....can anyone tell me which ecig has the best menthol/mint taste?
I couldnt find one that is close to what I used to get from my analogs...

I was a Pall Mall menthol smoker and I started out on the Volt 808 setup with their Ice Menthol and that combination was great for the transition to vaping from smoking imo. It didn't take long until I preferred straight mint flavors as opposed to actual menthol though.

Just try any of them! Generally (from my LIMITED flavour experience) the tobacco flavours are all just that - tobacco flavors used to flavour tobacco itself. You won't get anything that tastes like burning chemicals/tobacco (as far as I know). Of course you could just run your cartridge dry, I'm sure you would get a burning/smokey taste eventually (this is NOT RECOMMENDED!!!)!!

I just got myself a whole bunch of tobacco flavour samples and went from there - the closest thing I could liken vaping tobacco flavours to would be pipe-smoking or cigar smoking; in both of those situations you're really after the flavour of the tobacco rather than trying to get any sort of nicotine hit from it, hence the reason you don't really inhale those smokes deeply into the lungs.

I kinda wanted the same thing when I started - something that looked and tasted as much like an "analogue" as possible. I got all my cart in my starter kit filled with B&H flavour, and it tasted great! So much nicer than smoke!

It's all about flavours now - not about whether you can make it taste like smoke, and after a few days vaping yummy flavours, having a cig is yuck!
