Ahlusion Aromatic tobaccos/Vurley

[Sa Da Tay]

I know there's a huge Ahlusion tobacco thread around here but I didn't feel like digging through 100's of thread pages so...new post!

I've been a huge fan of Ahlusion for awhile now but have never tried any of their aromatics until today when I tried my 2 week-steeped Vurley. I think this is one that I'll eventually get used to and like, but for now it tastes (as basically advertised) like someone condensed an entire bale of (quality) tobacco into the 2mls I just filled my tank with. Right now it's a bit overwhelming and I'm not really getting any of the vanilla bean that's supposed to be in it as well. So a couple questions: do these aromatics change significantly with more steeping? And I'm assuming that given the description of Vurley as "mellow", if I find it already too strong then I probably shouldn't try any of the others?

They're all made from strong tobacco. In Vurley, the vanilla is cured with the tobacco -- not mixed in afterwards. It's there now; you're just overwhelmed by the tobacco. I'd keep trying it in small doses. You may suddenly fall in love. It happened to me!

P.S. The thread you're looking for is Natural Tobaccos. Feel free to jump in there and ask questions any time; no need to read the whole thread first.

The aromatics don't change much with steeping. They'll get a little mellower, but not much. The secondary flavor will fade a bit too. While the aros are generally stronger than the majority of tobacco e-liquids out there, some are not as potent as others. To me, Devil Dog! is the strongest by far. Sweet Georgia Peach and Honey Cured are bit milder.

Lol...

you just need to get, umm... acclimated. I've been at them so long that even bgb, devil dog and Caribbean blend seem mellow.
The first time I tried Blue Grass Burley, my reaction was the same.
