Yes. You want me to re-wick the same twisted coil with Rayon and do a comparison? I can probably do that tomorrow.

I think Atlanta is good where it is at in my book. We will see where it looks in a couple months. If anything, I think it will be even better then. Mass produce??
Let me know I have miles of it.
I use twisted 30g and rayon in nearly all of my builds. I prefer the added warmth and depth it brings out of my liquids.
With rayon you can't go wrong on any device. I have dozens of boxes of Koh Gen Do laying around collecting dust as it just doesn't compare. Though that's just my personal experience.
Test #3:
Steep: almost 3 weeks
Device: Sigelei 30W
Build: Marquis Dripper, 1.0 ohm, twisted 28awg, Rayon
This time it's taken an interesting turn for me. Rayon brings forward the NET in a BIG way over JCotton. The peach has taken a huge back seat to the NET. Turning up the wattage on the device brings out more and more NET, and as that gets stronger, it becomes harder to appreciate the sweetness that the peach is adding to the NET. Overall, wattages were way down from the previous sweet spot with cotton at around 26-27 watts to around 20. The NET aftertaste stays in your mouth much longer with rayon than cotton as well.
I don't want to go as far as saying that this build was "nothing but NET"
, but my taste buds tell me that cotton was better for me in this combination than Rayon is proving to be.
I was also one of those guys who did not care for the Switch, but I do have to say (regardless of cotton or rayon), that this NET in Atlanta which is the same one from the Switch is pretty darn good!

Interesting comments about the similarities between the tobacco's of the Wakonda, Virus and Atlanta...
I love DD. He looks good, healthy... He's doing it the DD way!

Well I always assume that my taste is way off, but I noticed bubble gum flavor for the first time tonight.Only my second night with Atlanta, but...
Does no one else taste bubble gum?
Are my tasters broken?
Peach inhale, tobacco exhale and lingering....but yummy plain bubble gum in between.
It's yummy, but I'm confused by it
.5 ohms, dual coil on a quasar, rayon
I'll throw it on a vv tmrw, I was too lazy to wrap coils tonight.
What I'm getting even more is a green banana flavor. It's mostly an aftertaste.
Honestly, most of the time this juice tastes more like a peach tea than a tobacco to me.
Yup, my tastebuds are due for an overhaul.
EDIT: Forgot to mention that I'm vaping it in a Lemo Drop tonight. 0.8 ohm, 26ga, wicked with Rayon.

Unless you have one of the ones with old and current TA then those are different...
Wish I could order just a 15ml bottle. I'd love to find a peach tobacco. Reminds me of the old black n mild cigars I'd smoke. Currently in the process of dropping to 12mg nic from 18mg.
Steep Time:
30 days dob 12/10/2014
Device Type:
Asmodus Woody Dual 26650 Parallel Box Mod, mechanical unregulated, Efest Green 26650 60a batteries
Build Information/Wicking Material:
Asmodus 26650 RDA, Ready X Wick & KGD Organic Cotton, 26ga. parallel dual coil @ .1 ohm
The sweetness has mellowed so has the Peach and the NET...yes it's all coming together nicely!
(The longer the inhale and as the vape heats, so does the sweetness* increase).-
There is not a ton to add except as with any complex e-liquid steeping does affect the vape, usually for the better and Atlanta is no exception.
I tried a build with RXW in the RDA alone, but this is rather futile as there is really not enough absorption of the liquid to feed the wick without it running out of the atomizer and all over your hands, mod, etc, so I opted to pack the cotton in the juice wells and under the coils and wick to aid in the juice retention and delivery to the wicking material.
This was a clean, first run build with the RXW that I feel was successful, as in my first attempt with RXW in the Erlkönigin there seemed to be too much air space between the wick and coil which can cause scorching of liquid because of the NET resulting in an awful burnt taste. Also in these styles of atomizers the wicks do not get as saturated as necessary for a good vape with Atlanta.
The vape is a smooth, yet invigorating blend of the subtle peach and mild tobacco which works out very well indeed.
I do not want to draw the conclusion that the steep time has necessarily changed the vape, the build is what has changed it, as I have also vaped Atlanta in a Kanger Sub Tank, and it is a hard call to tell the difference between a dripper and the Kanger OCC tank.
One thing I am positive of is that RXW is one of the only wicking materials that absolutely does not influence flavor at all!
In the cotton wicked built RDA, as also the Kanger OCC there seems to be a more pronounced sweetness to the vape, although it is subtle, it is more noticeable with these wicking materials (organic cotton).
Cotton, even good organic cotton does affect flavor, and is subject to degradation due to heat as where RXW virtually cannot be damaged by the heat used in vaping (a mod cannot generate enough heat to hurt the RXW).
No plug here for RXW, just fact, it is a superior product with a neutral affect on the flavors from vaping, thus giving one a very true taste of the vape!
(The key here with Atlanta is the wick has to be saturated at all times).
On exhale there is the mild sweetness again, a bit more pronounced than during the inhale, very pleasant; I have found Atlanta to be a perfect vape with my morning coffee.
All in all I feel the team at Nicoticket has a real winner here and it needs to be left as is, with perhaps some of our observations duly noted in it's description:
As with all complex blends it only gets better with age.
Atlanta' true flavor will be best enjoyed with a dripper or BVC / OCC type tank system, as Kayfun style atomizers (vertical wick and chimney) do not seem to keep the wicks saturated enough to provide a good, flavorful reflection of it's true colors, regardless of wicking materials.
This is not to say that other clearomizers or atomizer setups will not yield good flavor, most will not yield as GREAT a flavor due to their inherent small wicking area in comparison to a RDA, or a BVC, OCC tank system.
I am very pleased with the setups that I have found to provide a superior flavor vape with Atlanta, and will try to keep it on hand in my stock as a daily vape, as being the adventurous type, I vape more than one blend during the day as to not get bored.
All in all the vape reminds me of a very subtle Peachy Mocha, again very subtle....it is a very hard flavor to describe, but I do know "It's Great"!
"I don't usually buy E-liquid, but when I do it's Nicoticket, Keep vaping my friends!"
* on a side note regarding the sweetness of Atlanta; if you perhaps have gotten a little bit of Atlanta on your fingers and inadvertently licked them, you instantly notice that Atlanta is sweet...as it has had sweetener added to buffer the harshness of the NET...works very well!
Good practice is to always wear protective gear and wash you hand thoroughly after handling e-liquids!

I agree IT, it is wonderful!!
I haven't changed from my PT/MVP setup and just hit it now. The flavors are very nicely meshed now. Still get the peach but not overpowering while the NET has mellowed and lost the green taste. It is a lovely complement to the peach making this a subtle, complex blend. Truly beautiful Clark!!
As an aside, as everyone knows I vape GCD all the time because I am comforted in it's yumminess and rarely hit anything else. When I hit Atlanta I can smell cinnamon left from my earlier vaping (while not smelling it before) and as soon at I hit GCD after Atlanta I get CINNAMON in the first few pulls. I love this!
So this too will always be in reach for a yummy palate cleanser.

Short review: I thought it was pretty good at first, peach good, tobacco background that continued to emerge...
After 2 weeks in the drawer it came back out last night, 20 watts on an Orchid. It is so balanced right now, and to my surprise I really like it! Not top three for me, but certainly top 10 juices.
Not that I'm surprised, but nice job once again Clark!
