what is the deal with the vz gourmet flavors they claim to be even more concentrated than the alcohol based ones

I ordered 4 of those new gourmet flavors on Thursday, they shipped and should be here on Monday.
I ordered:

Gourmet tobacco
Gourmet Yuco (another tobacco)
Gourmet Caramel
Gourmet Vanilla Sponge Cake

They say to mix them at a very low %, I plan to test them around 5 drops per 10ml. Some people have already tried them and like them a lot, hope I do too.

FYI- This method really does seem to work with the NFs
Natural flavors come in many styles, colors, forms, and concentrations. Generally a good rule for initial usage is .25% and then add more to taste...

you mix yours at .25% ??? Maybe that was my problem, I mixed mine at 2.5%

Wow, 2.5% and .25% on NF. I've been treating them about like Capellas (10-15%). I remember when I first got the NF butterscotch someone recommended 20%. I never went that high, but I've always been way, way above .25%.

Couldnt help myself. I ordered these two to try out. I need somebody to take my credit cards away from me.

Weird they use popmoney and have to wait for a money request. No idea how long that takes but not a fan of popmoney. Really want to try this stuff though so picked up

Country Squire Tobacco - Raisin Rum DIY Flavor Extract
Rogue Tobacco - RY4 DIY Flavor Extract

Need someone to take my cards away as well lol.

I requested them last Summer. I'm going to wait until fresher batches are available. 5 months in shipping !? No way Jose !

Leah (vapingzone) told me that order was never received. Their new gourmet line does not have a born on date. They can only go by the the born on date the supplier states...and that is always debatable. And for that matter is 5 months old for flavor? I have plenty older than that I use daily.

I am not going to get in a debate with you on this. MY ONE AND ONLY POST about this..... thanks

Do they make their own flavors? Is the tobacco natural?

Jimi they offer both natural and synthetic is listed on the menu as a category on the left under NET.

I do see that they make their own flavors outside of the tobacco. Contains PG and BY.

I wish ECX would stop thinking that I'm a mind reader.

Can someone please tell me what these are supposed to be and what they
taste like:

Hangsen:

CO Tobacco
TU Tobacco

Thanks.



Can't tell you what the CO is but it's good (smells really good). If the TU is not Turkish it's very close to it. I have both and like them both a lot.

I have the SC Cohiba and this is definately different. I wouldnt have put it together if I had them side by side.
Does the Hangsen Cohiba have cigar qualities ? I mixed some Hangsen Cuba 5%, and Hangsen Havana 1.6 % I've been steeping this for about a month and a half. This is a must try. It has a nice cigar taste. I don't know why the Cuba is clear. But it was kinda weak. Instead of adding more, I decided to try something different.

The CO is really good, I made a 15 ml batch to test it out and the following day mixed up a 60 ml for my cabinet. Good flavor and yes I think it has some cigar qualities.
