So, I've just sampled my extract of Peter Stokkebye Kentucky Maroon (formerly Kentucky Nougat) and it is fantastic. I wasn't too hopeful of the flavourings coming through as I've read that in many cases with flavoured pipe tobacco this doesn't happen. However, I've got to say I get some lovely chocolate and vanilla notes, not too subtle or overpowering but really enhancing the overall taste. This was a PG/heat assisted extraction and I'm curious to see how the flavour develops (or dissipates) over the coming weeks, but for now it is definitely a winner.
Haha thanks for the tip... I'll try and make the most of it before the goodness fades out!I'd recommend vaping up the Kentucky Noug. quickly!
I've extracted this twice (I only cold-steep in PG 'cos I'm lazy!!...), the 1st time was the best:- all the vanilla etc. toppings tasted great. 2nd time I left for longer (8 weeks) & just got a reasonably strong tobacco flavour.....but it was n't an aromatic any more!
I'll do it again at some point but will use some heat & chain-vape the results before it fades!!
Thanks, i have ordered yenidje a week ago. But i am searching for basmas. Its a stronger tobacco from greece.
Just been vaping a newer extraction I made that I thought had a slight chance of being a good "change of pace."
It is, and it is called Sutliff's Molto Dolce, if interested

One of the best "flavored" pipe tobaccos that I've extracted, I really enjoy Molto Dolce but only when freshly mixed. The secondary flavorings seem to fade after a few weeks.
When i first tried Molto Dolce i thought it was the finest juice i'd had. Now, it becomes a little cloying after awhile. it's still very good but, in limited use. Maybe that's the secondary flavors going bye-bye.

great feedback folks!
....................This tobacco is one that keeps me wondering.... is there another tobacco out there that can be as much of a wonderful discovery?
The hunt continues!
I know this was discussed a bit earlier, but I just wanted to throw my 2 cents in the mix about G&H Black Irish X.
G&H Black Irish X...........Mixed at 15% stand alone, 50p/50v..... just wow!
Wow indeed nostra, that's an adult beverage right there mixed at 15%! I'm doing 24 hr@160º in 190 PGA and don't think I could handle that high a mix. I'm wondering if using PG takes some of the edge off? I might have to give PG a try with the rope.
Aren't most PG extractions mixed in the 20 to 25% range (since PG cannot be reduced like PGA)? 15% sounded low to me.
