I've been vaping on and off for quite awhile, but to be honest, I still haven't found anything close to the real tobacco flavor I really miss. I used to smoke D&R Windsail Platinum which was a genuine high-quality Virginia gold leaf flue-cured tobacco that had a slight sweet note and a slight nutty flavor. I've spent hundreds of dollars and haven't found anything close. I like iVape's Sweet Caroline, but hate the flowery Carolina Sunset. I've tried a boatload of 555, RY4, etc. and find some close but no, well, cigar(ette). I don't care about sweet/fruity flavors, so all of you tobacco-taste aficionados, step up to the plate and tell me what you vape regularly.

I'll give BB Virgina a try; so-far, me experiments with Virginia have all been sad...more chemical-tasting than anything else. And since I remember P/M from when I used to nick smokes from my grandfather, I'll take a chance....
I found to my surprise that I like vapor that tastes more like pipe tobacco. As I said on the newbie forum, my analogs don't actually *have* taste.

I have now only tried about 7 or so tobacco flavors but I only fell in love with one: Prime Vaping's "Natural Tobacco." I always order extra flavor when ordering from them. It is kind-of sweet, but not in a food way.

I recently ordered some of their Virginia and found it tasted like....water. Ick.

I have not tried 555 bottled juice but I really like 555 in prefilled cartos -- funny, I didn't at first. But since Smokeless Image prefilled cartos cost the same as blanks, and I don't have to worry about accidentally burning the carto because it hasn't been soaking long-enough, I order their 555 then refill with Natural Tobacco.

I also found that if I get outside my range for watts, the flavor gets icky FAST! Watts is (volts * volts)/ohms

So on my kGo batt where the voltage varies along with charge level, I'm finding it harder to get good flavor. I'm going
to try again at a different resistance and see if that fixes it. The *same* Natural Tobacco that I love love love at about 6 watts on my Volt, but the same flavor morphs to taste either burnt, or like water, or like metal, if I run a top-coil carto on my kGo at about 8.5 watts fresh off the charger. Time to try a different carto on the kGo, then maybe give it to my sister.

I have been on the prowl for the same thing and I have found winners with Goodejuice's Natural Perique and Organic Tobacco--both are great extracts that are atty and carto friendly. You also may want to try Want2Vapes Analog Mild. For a walk on the wildside, try Want2Vape's Paris, London, Acid Blondie, or Cold Infusion. I almost have a love hate relationship with some of these because they are so authentic that my mind gets a little discombobulated. I really only vape tobacco juice, but these almost feel more like smoking than vaping (specifically the Want2Vape suggestions). The other juices and vendors suggested on this page are good, but left me unfulfilled in the tobacco area, but not the overall vape experience**. Want2Vapes extracted juices are in a class of their own, though I feel Goodejuice's may be slightly more vape friendly and approachable.

**I have not tried Highbrow's Exotic Blend and Natural Perique.

I forgot to mention that for me, the most straight up tobacco--with no cigar or pipe taste--would be Goodejuice Organic Tobacco. First, it is a tobacco extract, and secondly, it doesn't have any real exotic/international blend of flavors...just straight up tobacco...not a take on tobacco...just tobacco! Organic Tobacco #1 eJuice [GJLIQOT1] - $4.99 :

It is the most westernized tobacco juice that I have tried, period.

I am going to second the goodejuice nod , both the Vita Bella and Natural Perique that I have are amazing tobacco extracted juices. I believe they have an entire line of tobacco extracted ejuice to pick from, those are just the 2 I have used.

Second Mr. Mann on Want2Vape's Paris and London.

I'd been looking at their juices, then read Mr. Mann's "OMG" recommendation for Paris on another thread. I ordered Friday, they arrived today (Monday).

I was afraid they might be too pipe-ish for me. Somebody else mentioned that London was the most pipe-ish vape there is.

Well, not to me. (People's tastes can be so different!) In fact, I probably prefer the London over the Paris, slightly. They're both straightforward full-on tobaccos and are probably the closest I've tasted to analogs in nearly three years of vaping.

I like them. I've had nothing else like them. (I do want to try the Organic from Goodejuice, per Mr. Mann's suggestion.)

Funny thing: thought I was looking for the best "real" analog taste out there. Turns out, maybe not, now that I found these.

I'm glad I have them. Can't imagine either becoming my all-day vape, but I usually switch among two or three juices per day. I will enjoy both the London and the Paris as sort of specialty vapes, I can tell. Especially good with strong black coffee, which I love. Great vapor production and TH, incidentally. For what they are, they're excellent!

Glad you like them. I stand by my assessment of London as the most "pipe-ish" juice of all, it's just not an aromatic type pipe tobacco flavor-- it's English Pipe all the way. Some like it, others think it tastes like burning tires; that doesn't mean it's a 'bad' flavor, it's all according to individual preferences.

Here's a juice suggestion for you: Vape The Rockies' Tobac W-J-G. I think it's very tasty and interesting and I vaped my first 30mL bottle dry in short order. Be sure to read Dr. Vapenstein's review at the link on the page.

Wassuuuup Mann... so good e juices natural perique huh? I may have to try that. I had some goodejuice over a year ago and they had a unique spice note I didn't care much for but I only had a couple tobaccos.Do you get that (which you may like) in the perique?

I haven't tried anything but their menthol, but I can tell you I ran into that with it also when I first tried it. After it sat around for a couple months I decided to try it again to decide if I would toss it, and I didn't taste the same off flavor I had the first go around.

Yeah, but you also got to understand that I only purchase tobacco vapes now, so I might be a little less inclined to notice it. Or, what one may consider spice, I may just taste as tobacco. Maybe I can hit you on the flipside again and you can judge for yourself...

I am surprised I didn't make the connection at first...the "spice" is just a characteristic of the tobacco. Most juices that don't have those notes are probably not extracts, and therefore are only trying to mimic the flavor of tobacco. Not saying all tobaccos are spicy per se, but I believe this is what you are referring to.

The Perique is not as spicy, but I don't necessarily consider either to be very much in that way. The Perique is a bit more colorful--if that makes any sense?
