Like every other noob ive been ordering from tons of different vendors. My new hobby becoming expensive very fast trying to find cheaper alternatives to my favorites.

3+ vendors ive ordered some type of tobacco and they have a peppery/spice note to them that is not plesent. Some attempt to give a tingle to the tongue. These are suppose to be more sweet juices.

Does this settle (alot) with steeping?

I havent had any luck with recommended juices or cheaper per ml stuff.

Nic has a slight peppery note that's usually only noticed when vaping a higher nic mg juice than what someone is used to. People tend to adjust to what level of nic they normally get. Nic acts a lot like salt, if your used to a dish at a certain saltiness it doesn't taste right if trying it not salted or with too much salt. No nic juice lacks a lot of flavor to me, but if I got used to it and vaped a juice with nic, the nic juice would taste weird at first and maybe even peppery.

Anyways, if your tobacco juices are at the same mg of nic as you're non-tobaccos, then it's a peppery note the tobacco has that you don't like. Some tobaccos have it, many tobaccos have a certain spiciness different from pepper, and many tobaccos have zero pepper or spicy notes. Do you have a certain type of tobacco vape in mind that you would like?

So far I only like mister e liquids. I started off with this vender and cant find anything remotely close. His ry4 and grey matter is my adv but trying to find something tolerable has become frustrating.

Would artificial synthetic tobacco taste more peppery than others.

Im also enjoying bounty hunter a little. Use that a few days a week.

The noticeable "peppery" taste is most likely poor grade nicotine. It could be masked by flavor, but some are more sensitive than others. Sometimes "spiciness" or "bite" is in intended formula. ...this is what worked for me. A reputable vendor will most likely offer unflavored base. Try it. See how you like it, can also get your own flavors to add to it later on or order juices made from the same base. Can also get nicotine testing kits to verify concentrate consistency. They are basic, but work and their price point is so dirt cheap there's really no excuses not to own one.
