Most of the ones I have are 18-20 or 24 mg I got one 36 benson & hedges but its harsh as hell and i cant use that, its rank (i smoke roll ups golden viginia, but use flavoured papers have done for years, either coconut (cant get them anymore though) or bubblegum,blackberry brandy or blueberry (these are flavour of papers i use)

as for liquids I have nit found one I like all that much and tried about 10 blueberry is ok some of the baccy flavours not bad, most taste pretty much the same though to me

1. Sounds like you need something stronger, in a flavour you like. Pick one, any one. You can get all the paper flavours you used to use in a vape, obviously those tastes will be stronger than the paper was. I'd recommend a tobacco blend right now, something like Griz's Black Cat (Licorice Tobacco) or one of Froggie's baccy blends, or maybe a Brandy flavour (I know they're out there, can't think of the brand right now although hubby loves his Dekang Whiskey)

2. I'd be willing to bet my Vamo that the juices you have taste the same to you because your taste buds/sense of smell is shot from smoking. It will come back, and you will be able to taste the differences, but only if you can stay off the stinkies entirely for a while (up to a month, perhaps longer).

3. Don't try to recreate your smoke in a vape, it won't happen. Sounds like you need something smooth, but with a good hit. And a lot of nic. Something smooth at 36mg perhaps. Any ideas, you high nic users out there?

Edited to add: Please don't feel bad for smoking along with vaping. Many, many members dual-fuelled for a while, some for a long while, and some have done for years. Count the ones you don't smoke, not the ones you do. You've come a long way already, you should be proud of yourself. The rest is just tweaking it til the stinkies fall away naturally. And if they never do, then they don't. Just keep on keeping on.

I may get slated down on this one, but I jumped into 36mg nic being a 25 / 40 a day rolly smoker and that worked a charm.

You know, I don't think number of ciggies per day is anywhere near as important as how strong those ciggies were. If you only smoked 5 a day, but they were unfiltered, high strength coffin nails, would 18mg really be a good replacement? On the other hand, if you'd smoked 60 Silk Cut white label a day, would 36mg be a replacement?

Hubby smoked around 40 Cutter's Choice menthol-filtered rollies a day. Most of his current juices are 12-16mg, and I think he started a bit too low. He's ok with it now though, after nearly 4 months. I smoked around 20 B&H Silver hand mades (in a long-filtered tube) per day, after years of smoking 20 Mayfair Smooth a day. 12mg for me is fine, with 18mg for first thing in the morning and around 6mg for evenings. 24mg, the recommended strength for a PAD smoker, is way too high for me and leaves me feeling nauseated. So I would try to match the strength, rather than the amount, of ciggies I think.

Hi Greeny, have you tried ry4 with just a few drops of menthol,
I mostly vape fruits but I get fed up with them I vape ry4
for while you could try dripping on a LR atty for the throat hit.
