    Okay, I can understand the sickly-sweet part of it. Part of my vape use is satisfying my sweet tooth without eating a bunch of calories.

    However, I will ask, have you ever tried ejuice without any added sweeteners? I don’t know of any companies that make ejuice without it anymore; last one I knew about went bankrupt a year ago as a result of the USPS ejuice ban. However, that company specifically was extremely good at reproducing accurate flavors and their ejuice often tasted nearly identical to whatever they claimed it was supposed to taste like, and I speculate that had to do with the lack of additional sweeteners. I would never say their ejuice was “sickly sweet”, though a lot of the stuff I’ve gotten recently is.

    Since your not a smoker anymore, I wouldn’t recommend this for you, but maybe someone else passing by will read this: try making DIY ejuice. You can cut out most or all of the sweetener. You could cut out all the flavor entirely if you want! However, if the sweetness bothers you, try making DIY ejuice that doesn’t have any sweetener in it.

      I’ve had unsweetened and ‘tobacco’ flavored ones. I didn’t find them appealing either. They feel more damp and generally not as enjoyable as a sigaret. Similar with hookah, it maybe does it’s job, but I liked the tobacco burn (I had rather harsher cigarettes, like gauloise or chesterfield).
