Which E-liquid should I purchase?

[[sGz]Valheru]

I ordered a black Riva from Vapor Junction about a week ago, and since then I have smoked less than a pack of cigarettes (having been a pack + a day smoker). So, as you can tell, I am enjoying the f- out of this.
I have seen the e-cigs before, and have tried other people's here and there and then finally someone showed me the beast that is the RIVA. There is soooo much vapor production it is unreal. Most that i have tried were ok at best, but this one is ridiculous.
SO this got me to wondering. Is it the e-liquid? I ordered strawberry-banana smoothie from vapor junction. IT smells delicious and all that and produces heavy amounts of pleasant vapor. However, I cannot taste it anymore. I don't know if this is a tolerance issue, or if it's just the way vapor junction's eliq works.
My main question is, though, if I switch to a different name brand e-liquid, will it suck? Does vapor junction eliquid suck in anyone's opinion? See i have nothing really to base it on, since this is my first actual personal experience with it (ya know, juicin up carts, and playin with all the accessories and stuff) I want to try some new flaves basically and I don't wanna be let down. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Val

Thanks for the quick reply, banjo. I'll definitely have to check some of these guys out. Any flavor recommendations from anyone? I wanna stay away from the tobacco flavors, so as I continue to vape, I will associate the nicotine with something other than tobacco.

Not familiar with vapor junction, but vapor production has a lot of variables. The more VG in the juice, generally, the more vapor it will produce. PG is mostly equated to throat hit (TH) and flavor. VG is mostly equated with vapor production. A lot of us here on ECF will swear by a blend of the two, commonly 70% PG/30VG or 80/20. That said there are plenty of vapesters who like 100%pg and also those who like 100%vg. Its a personal preference which requires some trial and error on your part. Also, the type of atomizer being used can have a dramatic effect on TH, Vapor production and flavor. If we both use ego batteries, but you use a standard 510 and i use a standard 306 atty, we will get different flavor and different vapor production from the same juice.

That said there are a ton of really good juice makers out there: you will frequently get recommendations for places like:

freedomsmokeusa.com
backwoodsbrew.com
gourmetvapor.com
velvetvapors.com

and the list goes on. And again, its a personal preference thing. I'm a HUGE fan of backwoods brew, but that doesn't mean you will be. Best advice I can give is this...always have plenty of fresh attys incase one dies, and try different juices from different vendors until you find what works for you. Yes, there is a bit of a learning curve on both the gear and the juice, but in the end its worth it. Even if you blow money on juice you end up not liking, its so much cheaper than smoking it will be a wash at worst in the end

I've had the same problem with most flavors -- after a while I can't taste them as much. I think it is more that you get used to the taste. Try different flavors and then come back to the original.

Tasty Vapors flavors are intense... Atomic Cinnacide may be too intense. I am a big fan of the Cinn Apple. but there are many many great ones.

I love Halo Freedom juice a lot. That Juice is what kept me from going back to cigs.

cignot.com's English Toffee(Lorann PG flavoring/ECOpure VG base) is one I have continuously come back to after trying others....subjective indeed. Best thing to do is order a lot in small quantities from different vendors...you will quickly figure out which is best for you....don't get frustrated and keep vaping!

Best bet is ordering sample sizes from various recommended vendors in various flavors that
sound interesting to you.

Seems everyone here has their own favorite flavor, on their favorite atty or carto, at their
favorite voltage, . YMMV

It's a little more expensive to buy samples but the only sure way for you to find
what YOU like.

Get small samples of different flavors that way you can find what you like or don't before you purchase a larger bottle. Several places offer sample size bottles or packages.

To answer your question about Vapor Junction. Their liquid is very high quality. New vapors go through transitions in taste as they get off analogs before it levels out which is probably what's happening to you. Dexter is adding more juices to his line up all the time. I'd recommend Vapor Junction juice to anyone. The Crispy Apple Mint is one of my favorites.....good stuff.

Ahh, I never thought to do that, with the whole sample thing. I think I'll do that next week when I get paid again. Great to hear about the Vapor Junction juice being high quality. It's awesome cause they send 15ml bottles and it's only 7.95USD. Since they have treated me so well I'm going to order one from them tonight, and then I'll go ahead and get a sample pack from somewherez.
