Probably a Stupid Question about Concentrates

[mowjo]

After reading a Thread about bad Juices I realise that a lot of it is just down to bad mixes of Flavours that don't go very well together, but what about just plain juices, I like Cherry at the moment and have tried three of four different brands, and each one taste different, the odd thing is the one I like the best is KIK's Cherry and it's the cheapest, I get it for £1.99 for 10ml in my local QD store, the one I like least was the dearest at £5.95 for 10ml I know from here that a lot is down to individual taste! but is it also down to the quality of the flavour concentrates as well? and if it is, what are the best concentrates out there? I want to get into making my own juices but I don't want to waste money on crap, looking at some reviews it seems that the most expensive aren't always the best,,,,

Different brands of concentrates are really down to the individuals taste........What suits one, may not suit another........my only advice would be to get it from a reputable source..........

Different suppliers have strengths and weaknesses.
Best us to read a lot in mixology section.
Stick to good reputable supplier.
Like many if us we buy concentrates from many suppliers as for example decadent vapours absinth is amazing where as flavour arts is really harsh.
Again that is my y opinion asvtaste is so subjective.
If you can give us some ideas on what you want to make then we can point you go the most popular flavour peeps use.
BTWcherry is a bugger to get right .

Thank Folks! I do look on here about concentrates and stuff and have sort of worked out that a lot will recommend certain flavours from the same vendors, as in one will do great Blueberry but their Strawberry is crap, so I guess it's a matter of working out what I like and going to different vendors for different flavours going by what you all recommend here,

Igual! it was the Cherry that made me ask the question, The KIK Cherry I like is discounted from £3.95 down to £1.99 and I've found that even without Steeping I get a real Cherry taste, the others I keep going back to after trying longer steeps because they was little or no taste to them, but they still taste crap, I think I read that Fruit flavours are better not steeped but even Vaped on buying they were bad,, I guess it's time to look at making my own Juices,,,

www.chefsvapour.co.uk and www.justvape247.com are both good vendors, although there are many others. Capella, Decadent Vapours, The Perfumer's Apprentice and CupCake World are all good brands to consider mowjo
It might be worth looking at the Recipes section of the forum and picking a few you would like to try first, buying the concentrates for those specific recipes and then taking it from there. It's all down to personal taste, and wouldn't life be boring if we all liked the same things!?
Keep asking, that's the way to learn

Andy! thanks to all you Guys and Girls here I've managed to learn one hell of a lot, I can even go in my local Vaping shop and hold a conversation now without feeling stupid, I'm trying Butterscotch at the moment and love it, the Blueberry I loved I've gone right off, I like my cheap Cherry and at First I liked the Colonel Custard but it seems to have a powdery taste to it almost like custard powder, so far it seems I like the sweeter Juices better which I'm finding odd as I don't have a sweet tooth, it's all weird really! the idea was to stop smoking, well more stop having all that bad stuff in cigs, more by chance I end up Vaping with tobacco Juices and after two weeks I couldn't stand them and tried the flavoured juices and been on them since, I've even managed to cut down from 24mg to 18mg then I tried a couple of 12mg ones and find they taste even better, it's all very weird,,,,

Their is no "best" concentrates out there. The only thing you can do is trial and error and unfortunately that may result in wasting money.

Any concentrates you buy that you do not like can always be traded via the classifieds though.
