chinese ry4 / tab

[deezdrama]

Have been wanting to try out those $12 50ml chinese tabacco juices but dont want to waste my money.

Looking for opinions on the ry4 and tab and which is better.

I enjoy bobas, nitelites tobaccos, bwb tobaccos.... how does the chinese stuff compare? And does anyone know the pg/vg ratio?

Oh yeah.... ive noticed chemical like taste in most chinajuices, do they use anything in there juices that may be a concern?

Thanks

DK-TAB & USA red are both... good... I mean, they don't taste bad, I could vape them as-is and still enjoy it. Very smokey & not much else: they don't have the "depth" of vendor tobaccos I have tried but I have not noticed any exceptionally chemically or bad taste.

On a similar note, you can take any chinese tobacco flavor & add toasted almond or peanut butter flavoring & it will be good. Not the best juice in the universe mind you, but genuinely good.

my major gripe with tobaccos is the pervasive "corn chip taste". i mostly run into it with nutty tobaccos (but ive ran into it with regular tobaccos too). yet there are plenty of nutty tobaccos that dont have it. most of my favorite vapes are indeed nutty tobaccos. ive been wanting to try DK-TAB because of how many people love it, and because of the extreme low pricing. but i really dont want 50ML of "Empty Taco Shell" juice.

I enjoy the Dekang-TAB but not so much the Dekang RY4 but I do vape it.
My opinion though is that they are not as good as NLV, AV or BWB.
But the Dekang stuff is about half the cost so YMMV.

 

[Kemosabe]

at $.30/ml for a mini-jug NLV is pretty damn close. ($12/50ML = .24)

regardless, im still interested in what DeKang tastes like.

 

[deezdrama]

"empty taco shell" lmao- thats a good one there!

Ya your right about nlv not being much more, ill more than likely just stick with them, maybee ill try the dktab when i decide to trade some juice

Kemosabe,
The DK-Tab and RY4 have a "dryer" taste and a lot less sweetness than say NLV's Bounty Hunter or Renegade RY-4, to me anyway. Also I found that I need to steep those two Dekang juices longer than the NLV juices, usually a couple of months but maybe it's just me. The Dekang seems, to me, to vape away faster than the NLV stuff. So the price of the NLV vs Dekang may actually even be closer when taking into acount how fast it vapes away. Also for me I found the Dekang juices at lower voltages, say around 3.2V, don't taste as good and have kind of a chemical taste but YMMV.

I had the China liquids RY4 and I think the USA mix(something along those lines) from MadVapes, I bought them as back ups because 50 ml's for like 10 bucks is worth the risk and nice for a back up when waiting on orders or low on money, when I first got them they were a clear liquid with a gross, real chemically, perfumey taste. I dumped half of each into their own spare 30ml bottle and put them aside "for emergency only", I went back to them after a while because I was out of juice and they went from clear to a nice gold and the chem/perfume taste was gone and they were actually pretty good, speaking of which I should probably order a few for another back up stash

I really liked the DK-TAB. Not tried the Ry4 from china. My favorite RY4's are from Vaperite (organic) and Altcig.com (have them add extra flavor though.) I have only ordered from China twice. Once on accident on Ebay and I didn't realize it was coming from China, and I've got an order out there now. I dont' even remember what I ordered but I'm sure a DK Tab is in there

Try the DK TAB for that price. It's a good tobacco flavor. Doesn't taste like anything that came from taco bell or the 7-11 munchie isle.

Oh hey - and one of my favorite tobacco flavors of all time is from altcig.com - Bob's Krave Kutter. It is good right out of the bottle, but let it sit for about a month and OH MY VAPE it is good. All their juices are amazing to me, and age like fine wines..... in fact I have not had a bad juice from them and starting at a month you begin to enjoy the aged beauty. Try the Bob's Krave Kutter for an awesome tobacco flavor. It''s not nutty or chemically but it is unique. Can't place it. But it is definitely tobacco and it's an all day vape for me. I just ordered my third bottle of the stuff. They always have good sales and are very friendly.

What was the subject? lol. Oh, I have not tried too many Chinese juices, but I would totally risk the $12/50ml bottle on the DK TAB.

i am familiar with the dry tobacco taste. flues / honey flues come to mind when i think dry tobacco.
also, ive heard the vaping-away-faster thing a few times now. maybe its higher PG that causes this to happen.

I was thinking the same thing about the high percentage of PG causing it the vape away faster as well. I forgot to mention the the Dekang RY4 does have a nutty taste to it, but not as much as the Dekang 555 though. As a side note the Ikan Vape RY4 PG is similar in taste to the Dekang RY4 but much more refined (for lacking a better description). At 20ml for $10 it is more expensive but worth it in my opinion. It's a china juice but made to the formulation of Isacc at Ikan. That one doesn't seem to vape a way as quick.

Well i went to nlv and ordered a bottle of everything i was out of or have not tried yet(still waiting for gold and bh to be in stock) i also grabbed an ego clearo for my epower and had to go to madvapes to get a 510 to ego adapter, and picked up a 50ml bottle of dk-tab while i was there, ill post my experiences with it after some steeping...

like others said...i figured it would be a decent backup for cheap, and may use it for thinning bobas... if its real nasty i may just spike it with some vg carmel or vanilla

 

[deezdrama]

wow.... this dk tab is nasty! lol, smells like a chinese food dumpster in 120 degree heat, tastes like stale rotten fried rice and soy sauce.... I hate to bash this juice.... I wasnt expecting much but did expect something halfway vapable that at least resembled a cheap stale tobacco.... oh well.... anyone else have this experience?

kinda wish i would of went with ry4 but tab gets better reviews than it so i cant imagine a worse juice lol.

taste is subjective but .... yuck...... i dont know if steeping will change this or not, I cant see this changing from rotten fried rice to a tobacco flavor so..... oh well

 

[deezdrama]

hey kemosabe...... the tacoshells not empty!!!! lmao..... its full of rotten fried rice!!! lol

^^ Yea, I feel that nothing that resembles quality has come from china for over 400 years. Maybe a small niche handmade porcelain market yet remains.

yea.... and maybee the ipod lol, did u know they literally put nets outside the ipod factory windows cause workers (slave laborers) was jumping out the windows committing suicide.

The offshore bankers who run our country also just cannibalized gm and is moving the factory to china, the 2013 cadillac will be made in china :/

On a brighter note.... I dug the carto of dktab (that been steeping in my pocket the last 12 hours) out of my pocket and braved trying it again.... the rice flavor has mild down a bit.... its now a little tobacco-ee and a little cornchip-ee.

Maybee after steeping a while the weird cornchip taste will go away
