Good tobacco flavored liquids are some of the most challenging to create I think. I don't like Latakia (a peppery, dirty taste), RY4 or Virginia is too sweet/sweaty smelling. I'm looking for a mild or medium American tobacco that I can accent w/ fruit, nut, coffee & other stuff. So far, the only tobaccos I like are FW American tobacco & TFA Tobacco Cavendish. I know there has to be other great tobacco flavors. Can you suggest any I might like?

Hangsen Tobacco or Tobacco Blended are free of sweet flavor. I like Hangsen Highway also. Highway is a medium tobacco flavor without all the sweetness or fruity taste. FA Virginia is a really good Virginia flavor that's not sweet (to me) and there's no "sweaty" flavor, but the batch I'm vaping right now was mixed several months ago. Time cures a lot of issues with tobaccos.

Tobacco flavors take 2 to 4 weeks to steep and mature. Many are sweet or earthy before steeping is complete and the true essence of the juice emerges. Prior to steeping completion they can go through sweetness and other odd flavors that disappear after a couple of weeks or more steeping.

Thanks DaveP. Tobaccos are complex creatures. I will consider ur suggestion.

And, something I didn't mention that you may have already discovered, every flavor has a sweet spot. Too much in the mix and strange attributes emerge. Too little and they can be tasteless or boring. You can always add flavor and wait a few more days, or cut it with unflavored nic/pg/vg to get the flavor percentage down.

I like Vaping Zone's tobaccos. I have some Hangsen that I haven't mixed up yet and I'm still on the fence about Inawera. Tobaccos are difficult, indeed.

I've only tried Inawera 555 Gold. It was ashy by itself. I might try it later with some sweeter flavors in small amounts, like caramel or vanilla or maybe some MTS Vape Wizard. I managed to get through the last batch I made by combining it with sweeter juices.
