Introduction
I like flue cured tobacco but this vape is not for me. It does not taste like perfume. But It is really really dry. The flavor is more mild and not in your face.

Vapor Production Key and How I rate E Juice click here

4.2 Watts 4 Strawy tobacco flavor. It has nice sweet undertone.
8.2 Watts 5 Warm straw like tobacco with a toasted undertone.
12.7 Watts 8 Nice toasty flavor undertones fuses with the straw flavor.


Numbers signify vapor production. They correspond to the vapor production key above.


Conclusion
Interesting tasting tabacco that goes great with mentol drops but it is to dry by itself. If you want a Flue Cured tobacco and do not mind dry vapes then try it. If you don't mind adding mentol drops then go for it. But by itself it is too dry for me to order again.

Aaron,

Forgive me for being a dufus who apparently doesn't understand plain English, but I've read a number of your reviews, and in all of them you comment about whether a particular juice is too "dry" for you. I don't get what you mean by "dry." By definition, vaporized PG and VG are mainly water vaper, so how is it dry? Do you mean that the vaped liquid leaves your mouth and tongue with the sensation of dryness?

I don't mean to give you a hard time about this, but I've apparently never had the experience you're referring to. If you said sweet or sour or thick or thin, I'd know perfectly well what you mean. But "dry" eludes me. (As does "wet.") Could you perhaps give some examples of liquids that strike you as extremely dry versus extremely wet? That might help me to understand.

No problem I broke most of the juices I have reviewed in 3 categories based of moistness. I hope that helps. I realize that all ejuice has the same base but some of the flavorings make ejuice dry or moist tasting. Moistness of a juice is a big thing for me. Does it now make sense for you? Or do I have to explain it better?

I love your reviews. I like the juicy juice, too. I had decided that I didn't like cartos, because of dry vapor. I realize, because of your reviews, part of that may be the juice I tried in the cartos.

Have you tried different juice in catos yet. I haven't noticed more dryness from cartos. It is a different draw but not more dry to me. I use atties 90% of the time and I use duel or 3 coil cartos the rest of the time. So I may not be the best judge. Just curious to see what you have found.

I think PG has more of a "dry" taste, personally. Maybe it's just the dehydration factor...I dunno. Anyway, I've found that I don't care for PG for this reason alone.

So you vape now exclusively 100 VG? I agree that PG does add dryness but I think that some vendors flavors also add dryness. EcoPure Mentol is 100 VG and dry IMHO.

I've just started a new bottle of Flue Cured myself, and I do agree with your review. It is mild, maybe even subtle, and to me most of the character of the flavor is in the exhale. Still, this one might grow on me over time, and I've decided to give the whole bottle a shot. I like the way you review, by the way, and hope to see more. Thanks!

Have you tried AVE blend 4, Bobas, Havana Gold, or their RY4 yet? I find them to be more flavorful and more moist. Guess everyone is different. Has the ejuice changed on you will going through the whole bottle?

Thanks :) Did you get through more of the bottle? Still think that about the juice or did it change?
