Bregalad has quite a story, and I happen to have been holding 2 very large pieces of an ash burl...
It seems meant to be.

Like many in Tolkien's tale of the War of the Ring, Quickbeam/Bregalad was a key and essential charachter in the fate of Middle Earth. Without him the Ents may never have marched...and thus Isengard may never have fallen...untill all the world was in darkness...and Sauron had his way with the treacherous Saruman

Speaking of your obsession with amazing NETs, this particular juice make comes highly recommended by many on the Pit. This link goes to some regular NETs, but for your stogie I'd take a gander at The Cellar tab. I even put some Reserve on the list for my next months juice run.
CIGARRILLOS NATURALES 60ml

The Boba's I sent you was hardly a sample, I had a feeling you'd enjoy it, so 30ml out of my hoarded stash was well worth it. BB is shifty that way, it's been in my rotation for quite some, and the flavor profile still changes on me (in a good way). And if ever you wanna get the full brunt of Boba's flavor complexity, throw some in a gennie with 200 mesh, and a .20 kanthal coil with a 4/5 wrap (~1.5ohms). Just made my first Uey wick this weekend with that exact setup in my HF Mega and holy crap, it's like a whole new vape.
:thumbs::evil::vapor:

Personally, I've found the House of Liquid NETs to be a bit overrated and not worth the trouble of getting them. They perform very well in terms of vapor and throat hit, but to me, their flavor was a bit one-dimensional and not as genuine as I would have hoped. They're all the rage in Europe, but Europe doesn't have as many juice options as we do. I'm with BJ -- the Want2Vape cigars are the best on the market. Managua is my favorite, followed closely by Alcazar, Coffee-Infused, Blond, and CI. The Blond and CI are lighter cigars, and Blond is a dead-ringer for an ACID Blondie, if you've ever tried that kind of cigar. They're actually extracted from the types of cigars they're named after (they had to change the names, but Coffee-Infused was Tabak Especial, Blond was ACID Blondie, and CI was Cold Infusion), so it's not just some generalized cigar-like flavor like other vendors sell. Ahlusion's Dulce Cubanito is a pretty solid entry as well, and doesn't gunk up coils as quickly.

I haven't tried the El Toro juice for myself, so your input will be taken under advisement. I'll still probably try the Reserve, cause from the description it seems like it might be complex enough to hold it's own. Usually when I think of NETs though, I figured simplicity might be the general idea. The flavor profile of OBC isn't very complex, but it hits the spot every time. Of the ones you listed above, I might also have to try the Managua, Dulce Cubanito, and the Alcazar. The Blond is def not gonna be for me as I absolutely abhor ACID Cigars. And I'm not really a coffee vapor fan, coffee should be brewed in a French Press and imbibed IMHO.

I haven't tried the Reserve either, and it sounds promising. I tried Puros, Cigarillos, and Eden. Of the three, I liked Cigarillos Naturales the best, although it took a while to grow on me, then I got tired of it pretty quickly. Yeah, I'm generally not a huge fan of flavored or infused cigars either. The CI, Blond, and Coffee-Infused are really well-done, but Managua and Alcazar are definitely my two favorites. If you like pipe tobacco, London and Louisville are excellent, although I think Ahlusion's aromatics have them beat.

On a better note for me. I did get this Vision Eternity from EPM along with the repair and the peterson--and it's vaping great at 1.6 right out the box.

One of my empoyees didn't show up for work yesterday. This morning I sit down with him to see what happened. He was in a fight and was down in his back yesterday. Why? Because someone stole his EPM, I sold him my first V1 and some dude took it sunday. The real tragedy is the guy probably won't figure out how to use it once the battery runs out and the juice in the atty is gone so it will end up in the trash along with a captivape metal stem. I've let him borrow another pipe and will be buying him a new pipe this friday, it was his only vaping device and I don't want him to go back to cigs.

The W2V Louisville is incredible. I am still steeping the London, waiting to debut it in my labuenapipa which is due for delivery today or tomorrow. You are saying the Ahlusion line beats them? Come on dude. Them's some bold words Red Ryder.

Man, I wish you guy's would stop twisting my arm with your Sun and Dragon RBA's

Ya, I cant believe he has any left. Ive been posting my pics around and have been getting asked lots of questions. Even seen people pass the EPM link to them around a bit so I bet they go quick from here :) Looks like Im gonna have to wait for the next batch of them.

I learned a long time ago never to set anything down where other people can reach it because there are far more lowlife ....... scum suckers around than honest people and it is getting worse everyday.

Was a nice thing to let him borrow one of your pipes and I hope he learned to never set it down unattended, even for a few seconds.

Well, that just about has me sold. I haven't been much of a dripper, always relying on tanks. Question; haw many drops are folks using in these RBA's? I keep thinking one of these would look really nice on the Briar freehand.

With that type of dripper I would say 8-10 drops to prime a new set-up then 4-6 drops every 8-10 puffs. There is a short learning curve with dripping but it is easy to learn.

I primed with 12 and regularly refill with 6-8 (and havent let it g dry yet) and not a drop has squeezed out. I been trying to push it but so far am very happy with the drip capacity. Not equal to a big tank but far better than some drippers. I think it could handle another couple of mm on the wick, too, upping the reserve by and equal number of drops. In terms of ml I probably load it with around .4 total when dry.

I manage a mid-sized law firm and have 22 people who work for me. I get the texts and emails near every morning. This one is the ole "I got beat up and mugged for my epipe" excuse. That old chestnut. A likely story.
