Been vaping now for over a year, but I still wake in the morning thinking about a big dirty. Ive tried Menthol, super menthol and a few Custard flavours, but I just cant find a flavour to start the day off. In my head its like food, I dont really want a chocolate bar first thing in the morning and so the sweet flavours dont appeal to me. Each morning I go by the old faithful "newsagent" and think "maybe just a pack of 10 and throw 9 away". Instead Ive just kept on vaping whatever flavour is in the tank, Ive been told I look like an old steam train coming up the street. Im sure if I got the right flavour I could have a few vapes in the morning, then none again until break. I remember when I started I went through a good few tobacco "flavoured" vapes but never found anything remotely passable. Ive lost the list of them now but it was all the usual suspects that are variations on the real brand name. So Im wondering if anyone else has the same problem and has a flavour they would recommend for first thing in the morning?

Know what you mean happyloman, I always start the day with a cup of tea, then start on endless coffee drinking, so I start the day with my own mix chait tea then change to home made vanilla cappuccino, at the moment anyway. Otherwise I'd go for a lemon or orange mix, sort of like fruit juice for first thing. So maybe a tea or coffee on would help?

Bread of Heaven is a fine start to the day. Failing that, Pow Wow Sauce. Both tobacco-based, but with a little something extra so they're nothing like the usual tobacco liquids.

happylomanA 'dripper' is a dripping atomiser. It is an atty that you add juice to a couple of drips at a time rather than fill a tank up. Most of them are rebuild-able so you would have to build your own coils but I think you can get disposable drippers. People who use them say they give the best flavour and vapour possible.

How about a nutty type flavour happyloman? Almond/Hazelnut/Pistachio? Shouldn't be too sweet for your morning vape? Do you mix your own? I have been loving the Castle Long Clone I made recently. Not very sweet, with an almost savoury almond note to it. You could try the real thing, but at £25 for 30ml, it's not for the fainthearted!

Ty all I saw a thread just below this one called "tobacco flavour help", Ive ordered a sample pack of El Toro from House of Liquid, took a look at manabush too, but couldnt find any 0mg nicotine versions, its shame that still seems quite common from vendors, but if I like a flavour I will probably be ordering with 6mg nic anyway lol. Got a few flavours to work throu now thanks again

A nutty/coffee combo perhaps happyloman? I really only mix my own Cupcake World's Coffee & Walnut /Hazelnut Coffee . . . but they've both got a ciggy sort of edge, without actually being tobacco tasting.

Maybe up your nic? What strength are you on at the moment? When I quit I started on 24mg, over time it's down to 9mg, but for a new vaper especially if you were on a lot of stinkies (I was on 40 a day... somedays 60 eek) a higher strength nic helps.

Not sure if it will help HAPPYLOMAN but I came off of a pipe after 53 years and only been going about two months with liquid. Tried a few tobacco pre-mixes, very touch and go, then started to mix my own liquid. First one I mixed, not my recipe, was Liquorice/Anise at 10% respectively, never looked back. From first thing in the morning to last thing at night I love it, so glad I persevered. With 4oz of pipe tobacco in a draw at home on tap and NO temptation to use it I feel.............epic. What I am trying to say is, perhaps another flavour with just a hint of tobacco will do the trick for you until you are happy to leave the tobacco flavours behind. Very best of luck with your search, I truly respect you for your determination, regards, Gel.

I was smoking about 40 to 50 rollups a day. When I switched to juices I started at 24mg, I would have about two or three puffs and find my mouth tingling for quite a while. I know people have issues with PG, but Im certain its been the nicotine being too high, dont understand it, but Im now smoking 70/30 or 50/50 and never have the issue now. Im trying to mix 6mg bottles with 0mg of the same flavour, as when at home - i work nights from home 3 times week- I can sit and chain vape, I know Im still addicted as I can find myself out shopping for an hour or so without the ecig and start to feel my head being squeezed. When money comes back into my life, i will order some of these recommendations, thanks again

IMHO, I Don't Think That 24mg. Would've Been Too High for a 40-50 a Day Man! I Was Smoking 1/2 That....& Started With 36mg. Personally, I Know That I Would n't/Could n't Have Persevered With Vaping without a Decent Tobacco Flavour...the Fruity Stuff Just was n't a Sufficient Substitute for a Roll-up. In Fact, I've Only Been able to Cut Out That 1st-Fag-of-the-Morning Completely By Taking the Old Holborn & Steeping it to Make E-Juice! What Did You Used to Smoke? I'm Happy to Post You Some of My Steeped Baccy Juice if You PM Your Addy?.......
