Goodbye, old friend.....

.....you will be missed.

I just finished the last carto I will ever vape with my beloved Kant nobacco juice. After almost 2 years, it is officially gone. I've spent many months (and much money) trying to find a replacement, even something close, but alas, it is not to be. This was my 3rd "all-day vape" that has disappeared. Mboro (which changed to Cowboy, but just isn't the same as the original), Parliament (which has morphed several times, but again, not the same as the original), and now Kant. Yeah, there is still a so-called "Kant" available, but as Maxx documented so well (No More "Real" Kant?, and The Last Word on Kant are 2 examples), they just don't cut it.

Kinda puts a new perspective on stock shortages. At least (hopefully soon!!) the Wowboy, Kamel, 555, etc. WILL be back. It almost physically pains me to know I'll never taste the wonderful-ness that is Kant Nobacco again.

Zztommis sir sorry for your loss..... But you knew the end of the original kant would come sooner or later.....

**zztommis** · 05-28-2011, 05:06 PM

Well, since I knew, I guess that's OK then.

I feel for you, zz. I knew how Maxx loved that first original-original blend. The original follow-up version available early last year was still quite good, one of my mainstays at the time, but even that fizzled away. Definitely a moment to remember in the V4L history books. RIP.

Not saying it's ok Zztommis sir, just saying at least you had a chance to prepare yourself for the blow....

"A voice is heard in Ramah,
lamentation and bitter weeping.
Rachael is weeping for her children;
she refuses to be comforted for her children,
because they are no more".

(Jeremiah 31:15)

Good-night! good-night! as we so oft have said
Beneath this roof at midnight, in the days
That are no more, and shall no more return.
Thou hast but taken up thy lamp and gone to bed;
I stay a little longer, as one stays
To cover up the embers (and juices) that still burn.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
