Happy to help slammer!!!! I have tried the fireball from fsusa, it's pretty good as well but not as good as cinnabomb! When I purchased my PV i ordered fireball as a sample (3ml) along with peppermint and cinnamon form fsusa!! The peppermint and cinnamon were not very good very little flavor!!! I immediately went on a search on ecf for bigger flavors!!! I ran out of the fireball quickly! I vaped the peppermint for a few days while waiting for my shipment form vaporbomb! I was very disappointed as you can imagine! i didn't smoke analogs during that time but I did think about it a few times!!! Luckily i had the will power to hold out!!! :)

Don't forget that your sense of taste will be returning after being off cigarettes for a while.... the subtle tastes you can't taste now will surprise you after a few weeks (or months) after you quit. I use to be able to pour "Scorned Woman" hot sauce on everything but now just a few drops will have me gulping down water. :) The salty/sweet flavors I taste now are amazing. Let your juice steep for a while and come back to it later. If you still don't like it, PIF.

Thank you for the feedback, knobby! I have found my sense of taste is increasing with each passing day! However, since I vape cinnabomb exclusively due to the lack of sweetness in my other juices, my tongue feels a little fried! So that may be affecting my sense of taste as well!! Hopefully the sweetener from ms t will help to give me more options!!

10 days... Congrats!

I've been off analogs since the 14th... and looking forward to each successive week.
As my screen name implies, I had smoked analogs since 1990.

Initially, I ordered coffee & spearmint from Liberty Flights (24mg)
Each has nice flavor, but was lacking somewhat in terms of "hit" or "tingle"

I found that the N-Joy tobacco flavor my PV starter kit came with did just that...
Abit sweet, and nice tingly hit...

These first two flavors I tried were sorta blunt...

So I thought maybe I needed some tobacco flavors, and set out with 7 various 5ml samplers to find that missing hit...

Of the various flavors, the sweet ones were notably:
RY4 (very sweet after taste)
French Tobacco (hazelnut)

If you miss tobacco (analog) flavor :
USA
Churchill
D'Doff

In terms of tingly sensation... This occurs (for me) when I take that first vape after eating...
Or in the morning... Passed that point, it seems to dull out.....

The last two flavors were Menthol (for my Pops), and Cigar...

Personally, I find the tobacco flavors help in terms of "missing" the analogs...
The additional flavors, sweetness, tartness, etc.. is a pure bonus, and forever interesting.

Analog1990, I never really liked the taste of analogs. So I'm not sure I would like tobacco flavored juice. I did receive Wyatt Earp with my PV. It was ok but not my favorite! I rarely crave an analog these days! Occasionally I'll think i wanna smoke when I'm needing a nic fix but I think it's just the habit of going for a cig! Vaping always satisfies me nic wise. Still looking for my all day vape!!! Thanks for the feedback!

My fiancee loves when I vape cinnabomb as well!!! I have learned that my breath smell like cinnamon even when i haven't vapid in a while!!! What i don't like about it is that it leaves my tongue tingly for a long time! But I love the flavor! I find my self vaping even when I'm not craving nic fix! Vaping is so much more fun than smoking!!!

Wow! Just as an experiment I just dripped a few drops of white chocolate into my carto I use for fire and ice!!!! Yum!!! I'm gonna have to mix the the two in a new bottle and try that out for a while!!! The white chocolate along is not sweet but the fire and ice adds the sweetness and a kick!!! I'm thinking I'm gonna love white chocolate when I get some sweetener!!!

Experimenting with mixing liquids can be great fun! It is especially fun when finding a good blend of liquids that were otherwise collecting dust. Example, most straight tobacco flavors are too harsh for my taste. But add a few drops of Sweet Georgia Peach and bingo!

An eGo battery, Boge 510 LR carto, drip tip, and assorted liquids = my new playground. :)

There is much to learn at first and the people on this forum are great with sharing experiences. Here is what I have learned so far..

I agree JJ. I'm on the opposite end. I can't stand a liquid that gives me no harshness. I order dekang USA mix that has very little flavor on its own, but added to blah liquids actually gives them the bite I need.

It's pretty amazing the first time you mix 2 liquids you think will be incompatible and it turns out to be just awesome!!

Ok update: I received ms t's sweetener today... Added it to VB birthday cake and I can't taste the sweetener at all!!! I added one drop at a time for a total of 8 drops... Still nothing... the juice itself is very sweet but when vaping the sweetness is just not there... Any suggestions?

Yes that's probably disheartening. The only suggestion I can give you is the one you already heard, which is to let the liquid steep a few days after you add the sweetener. I am reminded of my mom who had a "famous" recipe for potato salad. She would *not* allow us to eat it on the day she made it, because the potatoes still tasted bland until they absorbed all the other flavors. It had to sit overnight. That was the rule. We did occasionally cheat when she was not looking and she was right.

Hang in there, JJ :)

I was all about VaporBomb for a little while there. I thought I found my "favorite" vanilla. Then I realized that most of the other juices I ordered from them tasted the same. I know I need to let them steep, but as a newbie, I needed something for the month inbetween. I ordered Vanilla Custard from Nhaler and OMG! It's my all-day vape. The flavor is full and yummy right out of the bottle. No steeping necessary. So is their 555 and 555 Menthol.

So, as much as I thought I loved VaporBomb - I learned quickly that I don't. $100 worth of juices steeping away. Maybe I'll get back to them, but with the Vanilla Custard, I just haven't bothered with the VB stuff. :(
