I love Marmite; it makes some people want to throw up.

Brussels Sprouts taste as if they are rotting; some people can't wait for them to appear in the shops.

I don't think the reviews are dishonest, just subjective.

I dont think they are............... I have reviewed a number of juices and I always try and give my honest opinion on what I vaped............perhaps I've just been lucky and the juices I have bought and have been asked to review have been really nice. Only once have I really disliked a juice and said I didnt like it................as has been said many times.............. all our tastes are different....... what one person may think is totally wonderful another person may think it is awful. when I smoked analogues.......... I hated the taste of tobacco cigarettes and only smoked menthol............... but since vaping my tastes have been more for the sweet, dessert or fruity ones, although I have been pleasantly surprised with a couple of the tobacco ones...........so dont give up on it bomber............. something will be out there for you

I bought a tiny, weenie bag of the lightest loose tobacco in the tobacconists today. Just in case....

Even the lowest of the low now tastes absolutely terrible. You sure as hell notice the tar in real fags after months of vaping.

Don't give up Bomber..

Why arent there more reviews out there that tell the truth?
"This tastes like floor cleaner" is so much more helpful than "notes of this on the inhale...notes of the other on the exhale"
I've found this thread very reassuring to read. I now know there is nothing wrong with me and it seems there is a lot of juice out there that maybe should be used to clean the floor

I totaly agree with you twinklet, i have a few liquids that taste like floor cleaner , how can someone give a good reviews on it, and all these liquids have had a good long steep.
i cant understand how floor cleaner can taste so nice and have such a fantastic review ??? ive just tryed one of them and can still taste it in my mouth now, and it's a horrable lingering taste, ive just give my vivi a good clean out to get rid of it. but its still there , im sat here drinking orange juice to try and get rid of the cleaner taste , anouther one i have, tastes like mouthwash how can you sit back and enjoy a flavour like that ..
but anyway im not going back to smoking im going to try and carry on , im going to sell all these liquids and im going to buy flavours after trying them if i like it I will buy It, think its the only way to go for me. so im on the look out for a ecig shop where i can try diff flavours..

I am beginning to wonder if Bomber you are overly sensitive to the taste of either PG/VG or the Nic, you like Grants, what mixture is it? 50/50? 70/30? And what strength? Wonder where he gets his Nic from, as some Nic you can taste more than others.

its like a disinfectant sort of taste..

[Sandra (aka Chillax)]

Not sure tbh Bomber, I don't really notice it but I know others have, will see if Perpy comes on and can guide you, she is one who has mentioned the different Nic tastes before. will try and have a rummage around the place to see where she is hiding.

think you may have it there sandra cuz i get that taste from one vender, i seem to taste it in all the one's i have from there. its like putting my head over a mop bucket and inhailing it and all you feal like doing is spitting it out. and it lingers for ages it puts you off vaping.

Ever thought of mixing your own liquids, I do and as Moon says we may not always make great juices every time but because I've made it it seems to taste better than it probably is, and even if it's not that good if you're stubborn like me you'll vape it anyway. Dave

The advantage being that you can obviously then fix the original crap juice by adding more ingredients.

That way you can have 20ml of crap juice rather than 10ml.

Bomber, I can understand your frustration. I started about 4 weeks ago and couldn't understand what everyone was raving about with the taste. None of the ones I tried gave me much satisfaction. They didn't taste rank but I couldn't get the wow factor that most seem to get ???

I tried different brands and non of them seemed to give a taste that I could enjoy, although saying that i don't know what it was about cigarettes, taste wise, that I enjoyed ??? The experience of vaping is different to smoking. I still have 1 or 2 fags a day, the taste is awful but there is still something satisfying about a smoke > It's not a nicotine craving that makes me want a cigarette, It's something else.

What I have finally found is Alchemists cupboard, not all of them the Turkish delight is foul to me, but Rhubarb Crumble, Choccy nutty and lemon meringue ( if not used too often ) are enjoyable. I've also had GVC delivered today and am enjoying that But what I have found is the equipment is important, I'm set on Vivi Novas on my ego now. Cartomisers I really didn't enjoy, G5's just taste horrible, CE5's are OK if they don't leak.

So what I am trying to say after all that rambling is have you tried some of the smaller brewers, like alchemist or pixie ( which I haven't been able to try due to her illness but really want to taste ).

the other thing I've found is that I need to restrict the amount I vape or the flavour goes away and I get poor taste and an unpleasant feeling mouth.

See if you can get something you enjoy, I've seen the effects of smoking and it is really not nice.

ive tryed the venders what youve tryed apart from pixies as she is not well, get well soon pxie i want to try your liquid , gv&c i do like but not the other, i vape my liquids with vivi novas on a vamo , and ego's its not the equipment, its the liquid..

Bomber, liquid can taste different in different delivery modes So it is something to consider!

If you can cope with menthol you can make any liquid vapeable with a slight addition of menthol! Others use caramel as an addition as well

@bomber
Shedloads of good advice on yer probs already, so I won't add any - other than stick with it matey. You will find some juices that you can live with eventually. Heh, they nearly all taste better than real ciggies

Hey, hold on a few more days till you come over my house, your welcome to try everything I got, if you still feel the same and it's not your clearo's or taste buds at least you gave it one hell of a go

Sandra, for God's sake get him to try a couple of Boge LR's

[Ewol]

I used to like Menthol in Cartos but couldn't stand it in clearos. Does seem to vary a lot depending on delivery device, like Karma said.
