Saw your post and been wanting to try a few of those flavors. My order from ECX today:

555 by FW
555 by FE
Captain
Yuxi
Huangguoshu
Haorizi
Honghe
Hongjinlong
Hongtashan
Premium tobacco by FE (premix w/ good review)

Still trying to nail down a recipe I've been chasing for while, hoping one of these gets me on track.

Mine are steeping away as I type.....

Indian Tobacco

Just received some Indian and some RY4 from BCV. I've seen where most folks use RY4 somewhere around the 7 to 10% range. However, there's not much info on the usage percent of the Indian. What's your take on the Indian, percentage wise? Most of the other Hangsen tobaccos have been fine with me between the 3 and 4 percent mark.....

Indian is the same as all HS for me, 3.3 - 3.5% Plenty of flavor, at least as hangsen intended. Hangsen pre-made ry4 from the factory is not very strong like some latter day ry4s.. It's trying to replicate like a real cigarette back in the infant days if vaping, mind you a cigarette doesn't have a strong flavor like a cigar. It's nearly clear for an ry4, Indian is darker.

I can vape the HS ry4 all day with no problems.. Not very sweet, not too overpowering, not a strong aftertaste, just easily agreeable I think.

Really enjoying French Pipe (HS), Desert Ship (HS) as well as the TA Garuda + Gozdziki mix I read about in this thread. It's so much easier, IMO, to get an enjoyable flavor with these tobacco flavorings than non-tobacco flavorings. I'm slowly getting some non-tobacco based recipes going but I can just mix the tobaccos by themselves and get nice flavor.

I've got some HS Desert Ship on the way, and some Yuco from VZ. INW Vanilla for Pipe is steeping and Dark for Pipe as well...got them in yesterday. They both smell amazing. The Vanilla for Pipe smells like the best vanilla of all time - I look forward to trying them.

Tried a bit of INW Frost yesterday, shake n vape...I think that's technically tobacco flavoring, but all I taste is spearmint. (very good though)

Oh my god, only a one day steep and dark for pipe tastes amazing. I have never had any sort of alcohol notes in an ejuice before (and I don't drink, so never cared to vaped alcohol flavors) - but I like the rum notes in this. A lot. I taste a nice hand rolled tobacco flavor accented by a smoky, woodsy thing - and rum.

I mixed this at 5%, roughly 91%VG. If this improves with age, it will certainly be in rotation, maybe all by itself...such a peculiar flavor...

Oh man you're in for a treat! After a couple of weeks the alcohol notes mellow out and the brown sugar comes out to play. You'll still taste the rum, and the tobacco intensifies as well. I'm loving this stuff!

OK, decided to play a bit. Here's what I decided to mix up and try, after tasting (and liking) these as a stand alone:

2.5% INW black for pipe
2.5% HS Desert ship
1% INW TA Virginia


After the first few days these seemed to blend together pretty good. I'm going to let it steep a while and see what happens.

WOW. I can't wait! ...literally, might have to mix more up to steep :eek:
I might back the % down just a hair next time. This is my first time vaping flavor since August. I was a premium juice guy, that began DIYing a little, and enjoying it until I tried unflavored and believe it or not stopped vaping flavors for months. I think unflavored has given me a new appreciation for flavor, and "reset" my palette completely. I think I'll enjoy DIY a lot from here on out...

This is only the second tobacco flavoring I've ever used in DIY, the first being Yuco, which I just mixed more up of that today because I remember liking it. But this dark for pipe is ridiculous and I dripped a bit of vanilla for pipe in with it...WOW.

Yup! The whole "for pipe" collection is pretty darn fantastic. Even the Dark Cherry for Pipe is crazy tasty and I have always disliked anything with a synthetic cherry quality inherent in the product. INW even made that one super palitable!

Oh really? Hmm...I may have to pick some of that cherry up. Always loved cherry pipe tobaccos. Maybe some Gold Ducat, also - not from the for pipe collection but I heard it described as being like Amsterdam Shag, which I used to smoke a lot of when I rolled my own cigs.

You sold me on Dark for Pipe. It was on the short list for my next order and now it's definitely going in there.

I stand corrected!

That is one of the "for pipes" I have not tried. Totally forgot it existed 'cause I'm not a big floral fan. Check out the description from BCV and you'll see what I'm talking about:

Red For Pipe-INW

And there's a new INW "for pipe" that I'll pass on as well....not into the blueberry! I do like the FA Bilberry though....I'll stick with adding that to whatever tobacco I want.

E-FLAVOUR CLASSIC FOR PIPE "BLACK CAT"
