My latest attempt:

LBL #5
18mg, 100% VG (minus flavorings), turns out to be 16/84
8% TFA DK Type
3% TFA Brown Sugar
3% Blueberry Wild
2% EM
1 drop white vinegar per 5ml

Pretty good. At this point, I need to get some real long bottom leaf to compare it to. Going from memory isn't quite working when you get down to the wire.

Edit: Btw, this is REALLY thick. If I were putting it in something that wicked instead of dripping, I'd probably add 4% or so distilled water, making it 80% VG 20% flavor + water.

Just a side note posted on the EPM thread;

"We use 15% distilled water in our Pipe Sauce. This helps thin the VG (our juice is nearly 100% VG). It also makes it more friendly in tanks and cartos. I have not heard and bad reports on diluting with distilled water. Further more I have not heard of any health risks for PG other than possible allergies. PG is in a ton of everyday products".

OK, here's my take on this one, I just did a small batch. Based on the recipe from the front of this thread.

36 drops dk 555 TPA
12 drops brown sugar TPA
6 drops ethyl maltol TPA
1 drop 50/50 tobacco absolute Azure
In14 drops Svedka vodka (all in the batch)
2 drops each wild blueberry, citrus cocktail, kona coffee.
Topped up the bottle to 15 ml with 14 mg Azure VG base.

Hot water bath for 10 mins and added to a clean Genny tank with SS and vaped side by side with a fresh tank of EPMs 14 proof LBL...so very, very close. Mine is admittedly lighter tasting, very slightly so. Its also so very tasty.

I might not revisit EPM and only attempted this because EPM has been out of stock for so long.

Great to see this thread still alive! I haven't had LBL in a long time. My vape budget is next to nothing these days with the diy supplies so haven't seen much need.
I think that the LBL is not so much something to be replicated but built on. Clearly the DK is the big dog in the mix, but there are so many sub-flavors going on that it is tough to nail it down. I began mixing kona coffee M-type and Graham cracker into all off my LBL attempts and eventually found that I didn't really care how close I was to LBL but was more interested in the new flavors I was coming up with. I recently ran out of DK, a staple of my mixes and was able to put together something that reasonably duplicated its character. To this day I still mix variations on the first recipe I posted.
That said, if anyone has come close to a genuine EPM LBL I would still be interested in giving it a go. Hell, I still insist that if juice vendors sold concentrates and left it to the buyer to mix in pg, vg and nic they would be on to something big.
