Best B&M??

[Rin13]

I've seen several Black and Mild flavorings mentioned but have only tried one flavor that's similar. Black Cigar from VZ is supposedly one of them. (I got Cigar because it's supposed to be pretty much the same thing except less chocolatey) Then I keep hearing about Black and Mile and Black and Mile Plus.... Has anyone tried multiple versions of this or can at least explain what their version/brand of BM tastes like. I'm really tempted to get the Black and Mile (plus) if I can get a hold of it. (hear it's sold out a lot) Not that I certainly need to be buying anymore flavorings... I've been quite naught lately... but you know how that is.

I'll bet most folks that click on this thread think you are asking about the best "Brick and Mortar" store in the U.S.

Anyway; I've got some "Black and Mile" from ECX but have not tried it yet. Will report back when I do...

Thanks,

Norman

That's how you get the clicks ; ) Just kidding. Please do let me know. Got my first order from ECX today. Got Ry4 Asian by Signature (no idea what that means) and Maxx Blend by Flavour Art (first time I've seen it not sold out)

The Signature line is TFA not sure why its called that over there but those are TFA---hope they turn out good for you.

You pretty much have it nailed down--Cigar at Vz is the most like a straight up cigar no frills just a little sweet you can build your own flavor with that one. Black Cigar at VZ is similar but a richer chocolately undertone. ECX Black Mile is slightly different to me something in the base I can't put a finger on its sort of like a sherry backnote (almost fruitish) I want to say at least thats what I got---more desserty than plain cigar but not with the chocolate tone of VZ. Black and Mile Plus is supposed to have a stronger Vanilla note in it than the Black Mile---haven't had that one but thats what was explained when it first came out by the vendor and others who tried it.

Thank you for the breakdown, Shilo. That's what I was looking for. Crazy that Signature is just TFA... Strange. I will say that I mixed some Asian RY4 up and it's definitely vapable and I can it being a good vape. It is very sweet though.
For my cigars, I really want to find a cigar that's not super sweet. I like Cigar from VZ but it is rather sweet. I think maybe adding some Parliament will cut that back a little.
If all else fails, I'll just have to buy some Black and Milds and extract the sh. I did some tobacco and a Swisher cigar this morning. Super easy and appears to have worked well. Base is a nice dark honey color, nice smell. Even vaped them both at 10% and they're vapable but I think will be better with some steep time.

I extracted some original black & mild and black &mild jazz today..and like you said Rin, pretty good @ 10%. Jazz was lighter in color, haven't tried it yet. Gonna let em steep for a while. The original B&M reminded me of bobas when I first smelled it, really rich and flavorful. Interested to see how they are with a good steep. Felt like I got a little nic buzz from it..lol. I used the syringe method but I think I may need to filter it a few more times. No solids in it but really thick and dark.

Yes mixing it with Parliament might just do it for you I know exactly what you mean about the sweet note and it can get to be too much very quickly. Another option if you decide to try some other version of cigars I know of there may be more (Flavour Art for example I think Tuscan Reserve I believe its called is supposed to be a cigar blend flavor) I personally like Hangsen Havana and Cuba or Cubana mixed together (can't remember the exact name they call it there) those are more realistic to me as far as a cigar base but of course a little pricier. The extraction idea could probably work out nicely too if all else fails.

I might brew up some this weekend (it's for a "Boba's" clone recipe so I'm not sure I'll be able to let you know much about the B&M by itself but perhaps I will...)

I don't know what type of "tobacco" flavors you like but have you perused this thread of ECX "Hangsen Essence" discussions?:
