I just yesterday got some tobacco absolute (nictiana tobacum) so mixed it in my remaining JC watered down with VG, the smell is awesome out of the bottle...tastes great, a little 'sharp', but nice. My husband and I were reading a newspaper article together, and I asked him if he could smell my vapor, and he said, 'no, not really'...to me it is a little on the too much side, I swear I can taste it and smell it, but must be just the taste...second day seemed even more flavorful?? Can't wait to get all my absolutes, have a blond one coming yet, and the Ethyl Maltol will mellow the taste I am hoping. Could take some time to adjust it, I can see that already. No wonder juice makers charge $20-30 a 30ml bottle, perfecting a flavor can be very touchy business. I have to go strictly to VG now. Have to send back Johnson Creeks last 3 bottles, PG just too irritating, even at only 30%.
