Maybe a bit of tobacco Absolute? I just added some Garuda to my Red USA and it definitely improved it.

I'm realizing that aa much as I'm liking the Hangsens, they're quite light in flavor.. Even at like 7%. (That's not a bad thing... The flavor is so clean and nice and seems great for mixing with other flavors.

It's also worth noting that I'm on week 3 with the same Aspire BVC coil... Lol. Used to get a week out of one of these suckers.

I would guess that in my Hurricane, Calix, Russian, KFL, KF5, or kayfun mini v3, I could probably go like a month without changing wicks! Lol. Crazy...!

With 4ys of hangsen tobaccos at 7% 20%p/g 80%v/g, now using magnetic stirrer with 4% flavour and now with
40%p/g 60%v/g a vast improvement in taste, wish i tried this method in the earlier days, certainly worth a try.

I've vaped Hangsen for a couple of years or more because of the clean flavor. I used to stop by the local vape shop to try juices at the juice bar. They had 60 to 80 flavors in clearomizers and all you had to do was swap atties and try them. They all had that same funky undertaste and most of them were from highly rated juice makers.

One bottle of Hangsen and I was sold. I never looked back. I could add a touch of English Toffee or another flavor to Hangsen Tobacco and create whatever I wanted.

Dekang is also good, but Dekang is a little more flavored and the tobaccos aren't as clean as Hangsen. IMO. Hangsen's tobacco flavors are created through NET tobacco extraction methods.

What percentages do you use? Really liking Shade, but haven't yet found a use for Dark Vapure.

I use a mix that is bits and pieces of others from the e liquid calculator page. It is not bad but takes about a month to fully develop. I find that most FA tobacco flavors need time to develop. Kinda why I like HS, most are shake and vape for me.

Anyways, I mix it Shade 5%, Dark Vapure 3%, Garuda TA (INW) 1%, DNB (INW) 1%.

I also make a version of it by adding a little "funk" with some Latakia (FA) at 3%

Vaping the Arabic now. The USA Red was very similar to No5 and Highway (in a good way - but quite light again).

The Arabic has a lot of something different. Not sure what that is. It's like somewhere in the realm of the DS. Not the same but similar. A little sweetness...? . A tiny tiny bit of rum flavor? Dried fruit like rasiny?

I do kinda like it though! I do!

Once again... This is insane.... With finished juices I could only tolerate 1/10... Lol. Now I'm liking another one! I actually seem to "like" 9/10 - not just tolerate...!

Gonna make another order with lather quantities of flavors I like on Monday (sale at BCF?) before this stupid PA tax hits in Oct... Wanna be stocked up.

It has a tendency to grow on you the more you vape it! Quite unlike most tobacco flavors. Unique.
Agreed! I like!

I'm definitely getting Cedar. I thought it was my imagination as my dad made a little chest out of cedar for my daughter that also has scent added to it... It's sitting open in the living room right now, so I thought it was just me smelling that, but no I'm definitely tasting some cedar too. :)

Arabic is a flavor where everyone seems to taste different things.

Sent from my SM-T320 using Tapatalk
And I definitely like it. A lot. Mixed at 6%. 60% PG 15mg. I'll probably go 15mg, 6% and 70% pg next mix.

Hehe.....tiny bit off topic, but I've got a NET maceration steeping in a hybrid mix of PGA and Bushmills Black at the moment......I guess that still falls under the favorite tobacco flavoring topic! Whiskey can be a tobacco flavoring. ;)

So do any of yall know how much one drop from a hangsen dripper bottle weighs? My scale wont read that low :/
I just tried and oddly it wouldn't register on mine either.... Lol. I thought it would.

Nice!

In my buzzed evening I added 2 drops of Garuda and one drop of AP to my Billet Box tank. We'll see how it tastes in a few min. :)

I also moved the Boro tank over to this Billet Box. :)

My BCV order came in today, i have already mixed 14 samples lol. 4 ml each. I added 12 drops of flavoring, figuring that each drop weighs about .03. My scale wont go to the mg decimal place lol. Tried HS delixe first. Nice light tobacco flavor, a bit nutty and dry. Think this one will benefit off some AP now that i know what AP smells like. This one seems light it would go good w fruit added.

my tfa dripper tips on my random flavorings, and most of my other dripper tips, are usually about .02mg per drip according to my cheap little scale. I just set all my flavorings to 1g/ml instead of trying to hunt down specific gravity for each flavoring.

Not sure I would have the self control to pour a Single Malt Irish anywhere other than my mouth.

Short plastic on 10 ml
Container on the scale, tare (or weigh container), add twenty drops, read the weight, (and subtract container weight, if no tare), and divide by twenty for average drop weight.

You're going to have fun with Hangsen; they have lots of good tobaccos. And yes, they use molecular extraction for these flavors; stock up before prohibition.

A couple notes on strength: A drop-off in flavor is one tell on time to rewick. Also it was many months (maybe 3-6?) before I could taste much. Best of luck, enjoy the journey, and pour a scotch for me too!
