Hello from Ca!

[ChrisP]

Just about two weeks tobacco free. Started with the disposables (Blu) eCig. Amazed with the taste they put out! Seems they would last over a day at first but then I learned how to suck one down in half a day lol.

I found two local vape shops and picked up a egoT with variable voltage in a very purty green.

In a hurry I grabbed juice flavor from over hearing another customer. I had misheard the type of flavor....thought they were talkin' tobacco. The shop had no sample so I just grabbed and headed back to work. Turns out I had purchased, "Grapefull Dead"..... Far far from a tobacco flavor.... far from what my mind had assumed. Thought to myself, bet this ones stout, those guys in that band know a mean arse smoke!

Nope, 'twas the most rancid grape flavor. Like huffin Welches out in the hot sun!

My nicotine needing mind kept hittin that grape until the vape shop opened the very next day!! Found a nice flavor ( I-5 ) and have got better on using the new pipe. Guess the fruit flavors are not my choice....Good god it was nasty!!

Good day to all 😬✌🇺🇸

The grape might just need to steep a little while. Try storing it in a dark place, shake once a day and give it a try again in a week or two to see if the flavor gets better for you. Some juices just need a bit of time.... But then again it might also be that fruit flavors aren't for you.

Congrats on dropping the stinkies, keep it up and try different flavors. Getting your "flavors" you like seems to be of the hardest things for anyone thats starting to vape.

Welcome to VT, NorCal ChrisP! I'm from NorCal too, living off grid and have been enjoying vaping for roughly 3 years now.

I love a good Grape, and to me, PSV has a super one called G-spot.

There are a lot of flavor vendors out there to try, I've no means tried them all... I get in a rut with the ones that I am presently enjoying. Like Tams said, setting it aside for a week or two (shaking it every day) will sometimes help to merge the flavors into it's intended flavor. Also, I'd like to share that our tastebuds go through a lot of changes after giving up the tar from tobacco cigarettes, which means our preferences for flavors will from this moment on be playing the visa-versa game with us. What you love today, you'll hate tomorrow and then when you revisit months later you'll enjoy it again, and then not, ... always the revolving door of changing tastebuds.

If it's perfumy tasting at all, it definitely needs to "steep"... The flavors have not melded together yet.

If it's bland, it needs a punch of flavoring or a drop of menthol

Thanks Tam, Love2 and Uma!

Ya know that did enter my mind, my taste buds reacting or healing.

Interesting that one might set juices aside to steep.

I'm really enjoying the "Gadget" part of this and the new "Ritual" it has created. So beyond the nicotine and oral fixation this vape thang seems awesome!

Welcome !!! and congrats on making the switch.

kinda funny how much the taste buds change. even if they don't change enough to make that one palatable, It can always be used for DIY adventures.
