smithyjules Irish cream was my wife's favourite when we stared and black gold was mine. As we've both moved on from them I have loads spare If you wish I can send you 30ml of each which have been steeping for around 5 months. Should tide you over and you would know whether it's worth the wait Let me know, probably wouldn't get to the PO until Monday though. Greg that would be amazing! Will pm you...if I can work out how lol

My soft mint smells yummy but tasted soapy if that makes any sense at all.
Tank crackers oh hell!

Hubby has week old caramel steeping...might pinch some to try.
Using an evod starter kit...does the job just want more flavour...think the menthol has ruined me!1.8ohm coils are better than the 2.2's I was using.
Hoping to find a few favourites to keep in stock. I guess I'll make do with the cherry for now and hope my tastebuds come back to life when weaned off the menthol.

It's been over a week now and my joose juice flavours are smelling good enough to eat but stillllll not tasting ready to vape. Think I'm going to cry!
I've been vaping a menthol cherry mix but I'm a bit fed up with menthol (never thought that would happen). Cherry on it's own just isn't doing it for me I think the menthol has killed my tastebuds.
So while I wait patiently (pfffttt) for my jj's to steep I need recommendations for good strong flavours that are ready to vape on delivery. Currently vaping dekang from myepack as that's what we started our vaping journey with.
Please help!

We spotted a stall selling juice in Cambridge yesterday so thought we'd taste a few flavours (well overpriced so no intention of buying!).
I tried winter mint which he said is the new menthol. Yuck yuck yuck! Had a distinct tabacco flavour so I asked if that was the case. He said "there's no tobacco in it only nicotine" as if I was daft lol. It tasted like proper menthol stinkies with a definate tobacco taste. The cola flavour was really peppery too yuck!
I wonder how many people waste their money on this rubbish? He didn't seem to have much clue what he was talking about either!

Well @purple1234 - I have 3 'flavours' always in front of me - RY4, King of Tobacco & Red Cola. I just wanted to expand my horizons & get EVERYTHING hahahahaha I still haven't returned to the Chilli flavour though (aka battery acid) or Highway 555 (36mg) Couldn't get on with the dekang red cola. I was super excited to try it and the first few vapes were delish but after about 5 mins it tasted like gum you've chewed for ages really meh! I was so disappointed boo hoo!

I still feel a bit self conscious too Captain. I find myself drawn to the secluded corners I used to smoke in on my breaks away from glaring and fake coughing crowds.
I did stand up for myself the other day when an snobby lady was fake coughing in my direction at the bus stop. I was standing far enough away to not be blowing out vapour at her and I just said "just so you know this is water vapour and not smoke!" She stopped coughing then and couldn't make eye contact...mission accomplished!

PPS hubby had a go at recoiling but he didn't have much joy (he's usually quite good at that sort of thing) and I am useless so will probably stick to buying new coils.
Thanks for the kind offer of freebies but I'd feel guilty!

Well quite a few things to think about/try thank you all!
We were thinking about trying joose juice for some different flavours and maybe smokearainbow for some samples but (and I maybe being daft!) If we order samples from there where would we get full size ones of the ones we like?!
Just washed out the cola and replaced with menthol with a little cherry and I'm back to continually tasting what I'm vaping...maybe I'm just a (dot cotton) menthol girl at heart after all!
I'll get some 1.8ohm coils and some 18mg juice and try both.
Ps I love my evod...although black is boring me a bit...

smithyjules - I've got Red Cola too, but mine is 24mg, and it is weaker than I would like, but does (sort of taste) like the cola bottles from the pick'n'mix. I've also got the Dekang Mint (18mg) which is really quite refreshing in a minty way. It could be the fact that you're vaping 12mg causing the lack of "oomph" I don't know, but if I were you, I would go back to the 18mg to see if that makes a difference ps. I've got exactly the same as you - 2.2ohm single bottom coil Evods with 650mah batteries Hi Captain. Are you happy with your evod overall? Have you tried different ohm coils? So disapointed with the cola as the first few vapes were yummy!

Hi Sammy, I think you might be right about the nic. I just presumed it was like nrt where you drop down in stages.
Changing the coils depends really. They seem to be ok for about 5+ days with straight menthol, a few days less with cherry. Just changed my coil this eve when I cleaned my clearo to try the cola. It's doing the job but just not giving me the hit if you see what I mean?
Hmmmm

Well here goes...
I have an evod starter kit with 2.2mg single coils and the standard battery it came with. I started on 18mg dekang menthol which had quite a throat hit so I went down to 12mg. I'm happy enough (not craving stinkies etc) but think the 12mg is lacking something. Quite like menthol and cherry mixed. Currently trying red cola which for the first few vapes tasted yummy but soon lost the flavour (after about 5 mins) a bit like chewing gum for a while if you know what I mean.
I often find I'm missing a bit if a kick a bit like smoking a 'light' stinky when you have been smoking standard ones.
So...should I go back to 18mg or is there anything else people would suggest? I don't really want to upgrade my evod as I'm still new and like the simplicity of it!
