A good 'Cigar' taste / smell reasonably priced juice (that is non - $NET$) ?

[Flt Simulation]

I have been looking for a good tasting and smelling Cigar type juice that actually has a good sweet cigar type smell.

It seems like anything that I have tried is flavored with lots of caramel or maple ... I am hoping to find something that don't remind me, or all those around me, of pancakes and maple syrup every time I take a vape.

I just don't want to pay the high premium price for NET based cigar juice.

Has anyone of you folks ever found a pretty good non-NET juice out there that has a good mild cigar type smell and flavor. Even if the juice is kind of sweet, that ok ... as long as it don't smell like breakfast with pancakes!


I will say this ... The ECBlend "Sweet and Mild" isn't too bad, but it still has more of a maple syrup type taste/smell then a sweet cigar smell.

The only solution I've found for this flavor / cost problem is to make my own NET. With a good cigar and some VG and PG is fairly simple to make your own flavoring to mix with some nic concentrate.

Hangsen has some great tobaccos and their cigar flavors should be good too.

Stosh ... I tried making my own NET cigar juice once. After it was all said and done, I wound up just throwing the stuff down the sink.

The only real loss in my experiment was a couple of very good Honduran cigars and my time.

Thanks ... The problem I find is that Hangsen has so many different tobacco flavors, I just don't know which one to order that smells and tastes like a cigar.

There RY4 is good, but there is no 'Cigar' smell in it.

Give Hangsen Hava a try, its quite cigar like IMO (kind of 'flat' too, not a sledge hammer over the top flavor with loads of sweeteners and 'top notes' )

EDIT: But it does lack a certain richness I wish were there, but that's probably true of every non NET flavor I've tried so...

Sorry to hear about your loss....

You could try a few different cigars (from the bargain bin) with small batches of 10 or 20 mL of PG. How or what flavors get extracted still seem to be a hit and miss proposition. The ones I've tried have improved with just a touch, barely perceptible addition of espresso, tobacco or bourbon flavorings, mellows it out while retaining the overall cigar flavor.

As long as it don't smell like pancakes smothered in maple syrup ... that would be fine

No not at all if anything its dry to a fault I think

(which to me is apt, as I always found cigars dry to a fault More of a pipe tobacco guy)

Even a good sweet pipe tobacco juice would be ok as long as it wasn't full of caramel or maple flavoring.

Captain Black-White always had a really nice smell to it (even though it was horrid to smoke) ... Any juice out there that smells like Captain Black?

The hangsens are labeled as such, there's a slew of cigar flavors. I like the Churchill too more of a mild cigar flavor. A lighter one with hints of dried fruit... The hangsens won't be some generic maple syrup flavoring. They do use real tobacco extractions in their tobacco juices.
Check out this blog post the second Half has some good links for you if your interested. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...osts-hangsen-tobacco-flavor-concentrates.html

Wanted to add the Arabic is my Favorite right now, itmay be to your liking. Straight up powerful "tobacco" is what I get.

I just received a juice from the trade forum that may be exactly what you are looking for. Halo's "Captain Jack". It's a tobacco blend, and to me there are very subtle notes of chocolate in there (don't worry, it's not a chocolate juice!) like a lot of cigars have and it's kind of sweet and has a pleasant smell. I was lucky to find it on the PIY trade forum. Will definitely be buying it from now on.

You may want to try Cuban from The Vapor Room. It is what it is - a straight Cuban smell to it. Not caramel Cuban or maple Cuban or vanilla Cuban...

Still haven't figured out where they are getting the flavoring for this one.
