This is so hard and so subjective. I am going to divide my choices.

If I want to kick back and savor flavors, two companies come to mind-five pawns and Cyclops Vapor. If I want that relaxing-at-the-bar kind of feeling, five pawns Castle Long can get me there. I would not want to vape it all day, it's one of those flavors I can savor and then I've had enough-I put it away for another evening. It's so smooth, so deep, so satisfying. Cyclops Vapors, especially Athena, Artemis and Poseidon are just as complex and true as Five Pawns but I can vape them for much longer before it's time to put them away. The three are all fruit flavors, not candyish and simply magnificent in all the nuances of flavors involved. All four of their flavors have that taste that seems to scream that it took years to develop these recipes. If you haven't visited their site I urge you to do so, even if it's just to admire their beautiful labels. Cyclops has the best customer service I've ever encountered from a vendor and Five Points are very correct, professional and fast.

My middle tier vapes include most of ITC vapes, even the ones I elected to pass to others. They weren't bad, just not in my flavor wheelhouse. This is one of those you-can-taste-the-quality-and- care companies. The prices are remarkable and their customer service is stellar. Because I was a 40+ year menthol smoker, I really like a great menthol either on it's own or mixed with other flavors. My two 'go-to' menthols are Goode juice's Ice Cold Menthol and Halo's sub zero. Both never disappoint and the customer service with both are great.

For that everyday, just getting thru the day regular, not expensive, no-thought-required-this-tastes-good-and-keeps-me-from-killing-people-or-smoking, Mt. Baker Vapor's Black licorice, usually mixed with a bit of the above mentioned menthol. Their shipping speed is the stuff of legends and they toss in a free bottle if you spend over $15.

This is ECF, it will all be +1 for the vendor who spends 24/7 on here. Head over to Reddit, Bombie's rules. It"s not possible to figure out what you will like, based on what others do. Even the bases... My one friend doesn't like Bryce's or Bombie's base, I think both make everything they mix taste great. Taste is so subjective & for newer vapers, it's easy to fall for the hype, without noticing who is doing the hyping... Many innocent seeming reviews are people who work for the company. (Ohhh did I get burned by that one early on!! Wish I had that $ back!!) Many juices are hyped by the vendors themselves here. For those starting out, I recommend enjoying tasting new juices & you will find what you love, what makes you question why you would ever smoke, ever again. That's going to be "the favorite brand you ever tried."

Charlie Noble is by far my favorite with ECBlends being a distant third and Five Pawns somewhere in between.

Mt Baker used to be my favorite until they screwed me over on an order, long story but MBV will never get my business ever again. The last biggest disappointment for me though was Killer Juice. The KJ liquids all had a weird aftertaste or no taste at all.

Well I've been vaping for about 3 weeks now and I have found 4 juices that I think I'll be sticking with.
All are pretty much local, 1 B&M's tobacco blend, another B&M's L.B.D. (Little Black Devil) which if I remember is like a very light tobacco with what I think is a caramel vanilla type thing going on, the owner makes it right ,there at the juice bar, freakin delish. And then the last 2 are from Darkside Creations out of Saskatchewan, B.C. Blast which is a berry mix and Mocha Kicker, those last 2 are really tasty.
