my first juice purchase was from vape-a-licious. i ordered D's All Day, AG's Dream, Golden Gate Punch, and Girlie Scout Cookie. I cant remember which one i vaped first...i want to say it was D's All Day. it tasted awesome. they all tasted awesome. however, at the time i didnt know different juices had different throat hits. i thought that every 18mg juice would hit the same. i still cant grasp how all 18mg juices dont hit the same, but i no longer get frustrated by it.

Hey, tomorrow? Yep, tomorrow.


I just started vapeing today and my first liquid is 'USA Mix'. Its got a really beefy hit, really chunky and satisfying with a kind of blueberry aftertaste. VERY happy with my first choice :) Got Winson and Apple to try next.

Congrats! Welcome to the game!

I think it is good for us to remember our first...it puts a lot into perspective.

I'll definitely never forget that first juice for a reason not at all related to the juice...but insane nonetheless. As I mentioned, I picked it up at a local smoke shop about 5 min down the road....really nice area, in a stripmall, etc....I was talking to the store owner for a good 45 minutes. Bought the little bottle of juice & went home...that night on the 10pm news....I saw the Owner of smokeshop..i quickly turned up the volume and realized there had been a robbery in his store literally about 20 minutes after I had left. They showed the surveillance video on the news...the robber had a gun, but the store owner pretended to be getting the cash out of the safe behind the counter..and instead grabbed a gun & shot the robber!! It was CRAZY!! I could not even believe it. I had never even been in that store before as a smoker. Luckily it was a happy ending all in alll, but a crazy story. I'll definitely never forget the day I got my first bottle of juice. :)

No, I do not use it anymore. It was a sampler bottle, and I never re-ordered.
Yes, I would definitely still vape it. It had great flavor and TH, as I recall. Nice balance of sweet and tart.
No, I am not disgusted by it. :)

Who do you think you are to have had an awesome first? HAHAHA

I know!! It was unbelievable! When I saw the news that night I think I called everyone I know. They said it took place right around 8pm....and I left there no earlier than 7:40> Pretty amazing to see the surveillance tape too...and how the owner was able to think under pressure like that. I'm sure glad I left when I did...because the juice wasn;t that great. If it were one of my BWB or Rawr juices...being there for that may have been worth it. j/k LOL!

The first juice I vaped was of course, the Cowboy that came in prefilled cartos with my kit, and I hated it. Luckily, I had also picked up some generic prefilled chocolate cartos, which I liked. When those were gone, I tried the banana and the vanilla cartos; liked them both, but liked the banana more, but by that time I had ordered my first sample sized bottles of non-generic ejuice from Virgin Vapors and some empty cartos online. Hated every sample- Caramel kettle corn was cloying and too sweet, Shell Shocked was supposed to taste like hazelnuts, and really just tasted like hazelnut shells ironically enough, Swiss Almond and Vanilla Latte tasted like nothing at all to me (they needed to steep, but I needed nicotine). So it was a bust all around, and I finished off my prefilled cartos of generic flavors.

The first bottled juice I really liked was the next juice I bought, from Ms T's, and it was Peach. It's definitely still one of my favs. It's juicy, tangy, sweet and warm with maybe a hint of cinnamon on the exhale. Sunshine in a bottle.

First true vape was Dunhill from VZ. I thought it was great at first... but it quickly lost my attention. TH was great but it ended up being too heavy a flavor for an ADV. After that lesson, I ventured into the lighter "flue cure" type tobacco flavors (the ones that taste how a fresh pack of analogs smells when first opened). Now I favor the fruit/berry mixes or the sweet coffee type flavors.

I'm still quite new to all this. But I think trying all the new flavors is shaping up to be my favorite part.

Happy vaping!

First bought eliquid was Cuban Supreme from Vapor Bomb. I looked all over on here for a cigar flavor. Someone recommended Cuban Supreme so I pulled the trigger. I emailed them right after I tried it, asking if something was wrong with the liquid because it not only tasted nothing like a cigar, it tasted rotten, stale, and just plain bad. Being a bit naive, I had no idea about artificial flavorings and my email may have offended them (even though I was just uninformed).

Mine was Vanilla, in prefilled cartos I got with my first PV from a local shop about 10 minutes from me. I quickly moved on to their Coffee flavor, which I buy now in liquid instead of pre filled cartos, since I have now moved on to the wonderful world of variable voltage vaping!!! The juice is extremely overpriced, $20 with tax for 15 mls, but I love it!!! I went a month without it and I missed it so I bought a bottle last week and its already half way gone.

It was part of my hopes that nu-vapers could see the amount of us who didn't have good experiences to start. It does take time and a lot of research, but maybe not as much as it may seem. I am thankful to have so many honest responses.

I wonder how many of us tossed our first juice (if we didn't like it) because we didn't know what "steeping" was yet? I know I certainly didn't know what on earth that meant when I started vaping. There's probably a big black hole of perfectly steeped juices out there somewhere now....

Hell, my first juice was a Chinese juice that had probably "steeped" for months before I got it. No good, period. My second juice from SI was their RY4 and it is still a winner in my book. I don't have it anymore and probably won't buy it again, but...wait a minute...actually I will. It is a quality juice, Chinese or not!

Other than the pre-filled carts I got with my first Ego kit, (which I know now were PG "MLB "from Cig-Not- Which I keep some on hand still btw) the first for me was Copper Creek House Blend and yes I still enjoy it... that being said I got "brave" afterward and bought several that were "just ok " to "terrible" which wasn't so bad having the CCHB on hand.

My first juice was Johnson Creek Tennessee Cured in 18mg all VG, and I really liked it. However, they changed the formula right after that, the new version tasted oily to me, so I never ordered from them again. The current juice that's probably closest to that old TC formula taste is Vermillion River Kentucky Premium, and I do reorder that one.
