Smoking isn’t as cool as it once was. Too many people know about the serious health risks of smoking to take it up, and it’s getting harder and harder to find a place to smoke. Public places have outlawed it almost entirely across the board, and with fewer smokers out there, it’s harder to even find a friend that will allow you to do it in their home or car.
Vaping has risen in popularity since it allows people the action and flavor of smoking without all the health risks or the social stigma. You can vape just about anywhere in public since it doesn’t produce second-hand smoke or have a foul odor.
One of the best things about e-cigarettes is that they come with such a wide variety of juice flavors. You don’t have to stick to the basic tobacco or maybe menthol. You can find everything from churros and ice cream to tropical flavors. (The traditional flavors are also available, of course).
So how do you find the flavors that you are going to love best when there are so many options available? Do you just have to spend a lot of money on trial and error until you find something that you like? No. Here are a few tips for your next favorite e-juice flavor:

Everyone loves to tell you what they think of something. Just ask your friends, family members, and co-workers who vape what their favorite e-juice flavors They might even have a little extra that they’ll let you try out for yourself.
After you do that, go online and do a little research about vaping. Afterwards, check forums and product reviews to see what flavors people are raving about. You may learn about some flavors you didn’t even know existed (in fact, you are almost guaranteed to do so). You’ll also hear about what flavors to avoid, such as those that have a strange aftertaste, those that don’t mix well, or those that have too “fake” a taste.
Sign Up for a Monthly Box
Several e-juice providers offer a subscription service in which you can get a box of e-juice flavors for a lower price than what you would pay for the bottles individually. If you’re feeling bold, you can let the provider choose the flavors for you so that each new box is full of surprises. You’ll be able to sample a lot of flavors quickly, and you may discover several new favorites. Whether you choose your own or you get a surprise box, the lower price of the e-juice will make trying new flavors less of a risk.
If you want to save even more, you can split the box with a friend. That way, when you find flavors you don’t like, you don’t have to waste them. You can just share them with the friend, and vice versa. Maybe go in with a couple of friends so you can increase the chances that someone in the group will like the flavors when you don’t.
Visit Local Shops
When you visit a local vaping shop, you will see dozens of e-juice flavors that you can easily browse. You won’t have to search through online categories or scroll. You can just walk around and see what there is to see.
If you spot a flavor that you think you might like, you can ask the owner or clerk to sample it. Most vaping shops have sample available and are happy to open up new bottles to provide samples, if necessary. After all, they make money if you buy, and you aren’t likely to buy if you don’t know that you’ll like the flavor. Most vaping shops also have a lounge for vaping, so you’ll have a relaxing area to sit and sample.
There is a whole world of vaping out there for you to discover, so you shouldn’t let the unknown hold you back from fun new things. There are many no- or low-risk ways for you to find out about new e-juice flavors. But the best way is just to try as many as you can. You’ll never know what you’re missing until you do. And you could be missing out on something really great!
