I just came back from my local lizardjuice sampling lounge. I sampled all of their tobacco juices and left with a headache. Apollo's tobacco e juice did the same thing... Headache for days. The only one I like and can seem to vape is Outlaw from lizardjuice.com. They are all 60/40 PG/VG, so maybe it is a flavor additive or artificial sweetener doing it? Artificial sugars like Splenda and Sweet n Low gives me massive headaches as well.

i was hoping you could give a description of the tobacco flavors from Mt. Baker. The descriptions on the site are not really about the flavor. I smoked Marlboro lights, so something like that... I am looking for a tobacco flavor, not pipe, that has a not too smokey or earthy flavor and with a slightly sweet taste to it. A friend told me to try an American/Turkish blend, but I dunno.

I don't understand the differences between American, southern, turkish, east coast , west coast, etc... Can you explain that in flavor? If it matters, I am using An ego/evod system.

Thanks!

In my opinion, their tobaccos are the single worst tobaccos I have ever tried. They tasted nothing like tobacco and more like potpourri. Even after steeping. I won't bash MBV because they are probably the best vendor for noobs out there. But honestly, their tobaccos... Again, my opinion... shouldn't even be labeled tobacco.

Halo, Indigo, Heather's Heavenly Vapes all have delicious tobaccos. But with HHV, especially with her Purity NET (naturally-extracted tobacco) line, those really, really need to steep. For a long time. After that, it's the closest I've come to real, burning, combustible tobacco flavor.

EDIT: Also, what mg nicotine are you using? If you're getting headaches, it may be the nicotine level. Maybe try lowering it? It COULD be the flavoring, but I don't know...

I'm still at the highest mg strength because I need throat hit. I'm so glad I never experienced nicotine headaches.

I am using 18mg currently. Like I said, one juice is fine, then next... Headache; all 18mg. 24mg is too strong and 12 was too weak.

I did pick up a 510 cig a like battery and some kanger LR HC cartomizers to try out different flavors. HALO keeps coming to the top of juice discussions. I was considering their tobacco vape sampler pack. Does HALO also need to steep?

This comment leads me to believe you might like an RY4 variant. There are tons of them out there but I recommend Halo's Tribeca or Smokeless Image's RY4.

If I'm not mistaken, I do believe Halo juices come pre-steeped. Anyone feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

I know I have read this somewhere also. Possibly on the Halo website but I don't remember exactly.

It's kind of hard to tell sometimes by the expiration date they put on the bottle. For example, I have a bottle of Tribeca that I received in the mail on 8/30/13 so it was obviously made before then. The "Best by" date on the bottle is 9/10/14. Makes it hard to pinpoint the actual day or week it was mixed.

i can only speak for the vanilla tobacco from MBV. its pretty damned good IMO.was ready to vape right out of the mail. the only drawback i could find was, vapor production is pretty weak with their standard 80/20 pg/vg ratio, so i usually get 50/50 or higher. also keep some caramel on hand if im in the mood for a custom type RY4 (mbv's RY4 is horrible IMO) but adding the caramel to the vanilla tobacco makes a pretty decent one.

Does not really taste like tobacco IMO but wife and I love MVB BluBacco 80PG /20VG -18 two extra flavor shots from them and I have mixed my own with their flavor concentrate at 25% and it is very close to same.

Never tried thier Vanilla Tobbaco juice however I have used Flavor West flavoring and mix it at 20% and really like it.
