Preferred flavor suppliers

Brandontf8o8 · Jun 19, 2015

Hey guys. Wanting to get into the DIY ejuice realm.

Wanting to know who you're preferred flavor suppliers are and if there are any chemicals or additives I should be aware of that I don't want in the flavoring.

Thoughts?

My fave is Flavour Art. The flavors are great, and very concentrated so I don't need to use as much. I also use TFA and Capella with a few from Flavor West, German Flavors, Natures Flavors and Vaping Zone (Bakers Flavors). Different manufacturers have their strengths and weaknesses, and everyones taste buds are different, so read everything you can and start out with some that sound good to you. You can't go wrong with Head in Clouds recipes- they're Flavour Art recipes.

Stay away from anything containing oils, diacetyl or coloring.

Read everything you can. Check out the Helpful DIY links which links to a lot of helpful resources and Vaping Underground guides.

After jumping around and trying to wrap my head around everything I just ordered a few of the sample packs from flavor apprentice.

Hopefully there good but only 1 way to find out haha

I go first to FA, then TFA and CAP. I have some FW, but try to avoid them as they've been known to be tricky about listing their nasty ingredients (FA is the best when it comes to excluding diketones from their vape-centric line). Just visited the Nude Nicotine lab today and picked up a handful of their flavors that I'm excited to try, though they seem to be more straight mixes than ingredients to form your own recipe...

I noticed a lot of the recipes use FA flavoring but I can't find a sample pack from them. Do u guys know if they have any anywhere?

Not a sample pack but mamajsflavorshop.com does 3 ml bottles of FA flavouring.

Huckleberried · Jun 20, 2015

+1.
Sample size from Mama J's (FA and Specialty flavors), also from Pure Vapes (FA).

My top Vendors: Mama J's and Bull City (Pretty much any brand you need and PG/VG.
If I can't get it from them, I'll check out ECX (many brands) and Pure Vapes. If they don't have it and I MUST have it, I'll look at at eliquidmart.(FA and Caps)

Fave brands: FA, TFA, Caps, INW, NF (in that order)

Nic Supplier: Vaperstek.

Well looks like there's a clear winner haha. Any particular flavor I should try out first?

Prefer fruity or creamy flavors over most.

My favorite FA fruits:
Forest Mix
Citrus Mix
Bilberry
Lemon Sicily (though it needs to be mixed with something, usually)
Pomegranate

My favourite FA fruits:

Fuji
Lemon Sicily
Banana
White peach
Mango

All the creams are useful

Not counting premixed flavors from mamaj, most of my flavors are from FlavourArt. Only a few from other vendors, and mostly just specific things that (as far as I know) FlavourArt doesn't make or if the vender I placed an order with was out of a FlavourArt flavor that I wanted at the time.

As for what flavors to start out with, go with whatever flavors you like to vape or whatever flavors are needed to make what you like to vape.
If you like fruit vapes, then get the fruit flavors you like.

That pretty much sums up the experience with FA. If you like pears, you'll like FA Pear. Their fruit flavors will please you. I never cared for fruity vapes until I started with FA. As far as their creamy flavors go, get them all. They're delicious and each one is very useful.

I'd consider these, as well:
Nut Mix, Almond, Tiramisu, Vanilla Classic (I consider this to be a cream flavor), Marshmallow, Marzipan. And if you don't get cookie, you'll be so sad. I mean SAD. You will cry, you will be so sad.

Also get Anise. It's super happy.

sucks, Nut Mix was something ECX didn't have when I placed my order yesterday.
So just ordered each FA nut and figured I'd try mixing them together

Also forgot about Jamaican Rum

Huckleberried · Jun 20, 2015

Oh definitely Jamaican Rum!

Nut Mix might even have a dash of pistachio. Did ya try Mama J's or BCV?

Hey! it's just Ray... · Jun 20, 2015

Surprised when the mail came today. My ECX order from the Father's Day Sale was at my door. They were slow last time when I had to pay for shipping, maybe the slightly larger order was a factor. Anyway, I'm happy.
