It can be tricky to start with. I find reading alot of forums, reviews and guides (Grizwald`s is a great starting point) helps you out alot. The tricky part to it is finding flavours that live up to the hype and mixing it to the best PG/VG ratio...then having the patience to let it steep awhile (at least 2 days or cheat by warming and shaking it alot). Initially I was looking for the holygrail of tobacco flavours and that seems be the weak point of mixing, or so Ive found. Ive got a full box,30+, of flavours from different producers, some are good some are bad and alot of them do not taste like are supposed to. The past fortnight I thought I`d change my approach and move away from the 'total' tobacco flavours and Im alot happier with the results. Mixing tobacco-esque flavours with licorice/caramel/menthol/cinnanon has more satisfying results and now Im really enjoying desert type flavours which I never thought I would, I blame karma for that -introducing me to grizwald`s black cat (baccy & licorice). I find it very satisfying and I have some really successful recipes now, it wasnt like that to start with. Take note of the effect of all the ingredients and processes, some flavours seem to react together in a bad way when directly mixed, try a higher PG content as it carries flavour better. Stick with it, remember safety and record what you do. You`ll have fun along the way.

In the UK, Liberty Flights selection is hard to beat as Macca says Matty. Overseas, then Ecigexpress have a mind boggling selection, their shipping isn't overly hetic, although bumps up according to weight. www.ecigexpress.com/flavoring-c-16Sherryl at VIP stocks Flavourwest concentrates, under her own branding, the majority that I've tried have been very enjoyable, her shipping is a fixed rate $6 which is excellent value. www.vipvaporcig.com/flavorings.html

Liberty flights do a good range of Flavouart flavourings and TPA (perfrumers apprentice flavouring). Discount code is ECR69 or you can use my user name. www.liberty-flights.co.uk/category.asp?categoryid=13Ecig wizard do Perfumers apprentice and Discount codes try river first and then ECR69 if it does not work. www.ecigwizard.com/shop/en/25-mixingInawera do a good range of flavourings as well including flavourarts. www.inawerashop.com/Different brands of flavourings will need different percentage mixes and flavourarts is most powerful I have come across. There are loads of suppliers in the US if none of those satisfy your needs.. I have had a look Flavourart, there is a great choice, but my base tobacco is 50/50 PG.VG and most of the flavours already contain PG/VG, I am now in a quandary as to how this will / wont work? The flavours I am using at the moment have no PG/Vg so no problem.
