What's Your Favorite Vape Juice? Share the Flavor Name & Brand!
Flavor is everything. Whether you chase bright fruit hits, creamy desserts, or icy menthols, the right vape juice turns an ordinary puff into a memorable moment. We want to hear from real vapers: what's your favorite vape juice (flavor name & brand)? Tell us the flavor, the brand, the PG/VG ratio, and the nicotine type — your pick might help someone find their next go-to. We stock and follow popular brands like Juice Head, Sad Boy, Monster Vape Labs, Pod Juice, Candy King, Naked 100, and more—so feel free to name your favorites from these labels or any indie gems you love.
Quick Consumer Guide: PG/VG, Nicotine Type & Strength
- PG/VG ratio — PG carries flavor and gives a stronger throat hit; VG makes thicker vapor and a smoother inhale. Want flavor-forward and a cigarette-like feel? Try 50/50. Want clouds and smoothness? Look for 70/30 VG/PG or Max VG.
- Nicotine types — Freebase (classic), Nicotine Salts (smoother at higher mg, great for pods), and Tobacco-Free/Synthetic Nicotine (TFN) (an alternative source of nicotine with similar effects).
- Strength — Pod users often choose higher nic salts (e.g., 25–50 mg), while sub-ohm vapers prefer lower freebase levels (3–12 mg).
Popular Flavor Comparisons (What Vapers Actually Debate)
These are the quick comparisons people love to argue about — great for trying side-by-side samples or making staff recommendations:
- Blue Razz vs Strawberry Watermelon — Blue Razz is tart, candy-like and bright; Strawberry Watermelon is juicier and more balanced. Blue Razz often wins impulse buys; Strawberry Watermelon is an all-day, crowd-pleasing option.
- Custard Cookie vs Strawberry Jam Cookie — Custard Cookie leans rich and creamy with baked notes; Strawberry Jam Cookie adds a fruity tang on top of the creamy base. Dessert fans usually keep both in stock: one for comfort, one for variety.
- Cool Mint vs Menthol Ice vs Gum Mint — Cool Mint is crisp and refreshing; Menthol Ice is colder (more chill); Gum Mint mimics a sweet chewing-gum profile. Pick Cool Mint for casual menthol fans, Menthol Ice for a sharper chill.
- Mango (regular) vs Mexico Mango — Regular mango flavors are sweet and smooth; Mexico Mango often has a tangier, tropical kick or citrus edge. Great cross-sell for summer displays.
- Gummy Bear vs Sour Candy — Gummy Bear is chewy and sweet; Sour variants pack a tangy, mouth-puckering punch. Sour flavors are excellent limited-time sellers because they feel novel.
- Coffee vs Tobacco — Coffee vapes deliver roasted, aromatic notes and pair nicely with dessert flavors; classic tobacco offers a deeper, earthier profile. Coffee is popular with morning vapers or anyone who wants a “café” vibe.
Regular E-Liquids vs Nicotine Salts — Which Should You Buy?
- Regular (freebase) e-liquids — Better for sub-ohm devices and cloud chasers. Stronger throat hit at the same mg, and great when flavor complexity matters at higher wattage.
- Nicotine salts — Smoother at higher nicotine strengths, ideal for low-wattage pod devices and vapers switching from cigarettes who want faster satisfaction with less throat irritation.
Freebase vs Tobacco-Free Nicotine (TFN) — A Quick Look
Freebase nicotine is the standard; TFN is synthetically produced nicotine (not extracted from tobacco). Most vapers notice only subtle differences — some describe TFN as “cleaner” or slightly smoother — but device compatibility, flavor, and personal preference remain the main drivers.
Tips for Trying Flavors
- Try a single new flavor for at least a day before switching — flavors can taste different over time.
- Clean or change coils between dessert and fruit flavors to avoid flavor carryover.
- Compare the same flavor in salt vs freebase to see how nicotine form changes throat hit and satisfaction.
