I've been trying to get a subtle sweet tobacco flavour for quite some time. Never had much luck until now. The current mix I use gives a clean, subtle taste that smells like a mix of sweet hay and Virgina tobacco. Its the first one I've made that I actually enjoy vaping with. I like it very mild so keep that in mind.
Here is the mix I use that has been tailored to my personal tastes but its easy to play with:
I will use percentages so you can mix however much you want if you're game to try it:
I mixed mine for 18mg nic but its easy to adjust.
50% PG with 36mg nic (you can use VG but I like the throat hit from PG)
1% Ethyl Maltol (gives pleasant sweet hay smell)
1 drop per 5ml of diluted tobacco absolute
2% distilled water
47% pure VG
1 (small) drop of highly concentrated menthol crystals mixture (used to clean up the flavor just a bit, does not turn it into a menthol flavor. This one can be left out if you want an earthier tasting vape)
Notes:
To create diluted tobacco absolute:
1 drop of tobacco absolute in the purest alcohol you have. I use absinthe at 70% but you vodka should work fine, even at 40%. The mix is 1 drop per 2 ml.
To create concentrated menthol mix:
I use 25% crystals ([FONT=Arial, Verdana]mentha arvensis)[/FONT] in 75% absinthe. The crystals completely dissolve this way and there is no need to warm it and no problems with crystals reforming. This stuff is extremely potent so you should mix it in any juice with extreme caution.
The best places I've found for the stuff is:
Tob. Abs
Tobacco Absolute
Ethyl Maltol
Ethyl Maltol - 2.5 ml vial
I used ebay to get the crystals. All the materials are very inexpensive.
I'm going to try adding small traces of vanilla or caramel and maybe even a hint of raspberry next to see how it goes.
