Good tobacco juices?

Not open for further replies.
Since I can't post in the other forums as of yet, I thought I'd ask if any beginners can point me in the direction of a good tobacco flavored juice? Taste is completely subjective, but I'm looking for something that mimics pipe tobacco..... low sweetness and lots of natural flavor.

Been lurking for a while but figured I'd ask because I've seen a lot of people moving to sweeter fruit juices instead of tobacco.

I have a sample pack from Johnson Creek, but haven't gotten to all the flavors yet.

I like pipe tobacco's myself too, but it depends on what flavor you like, vanilla, chocolate, caramel and so on, I did vape Notre Dam of Dekang, it do have a bit chocolate taste with a sweetness in the bg.
However the most flavors of almost all liquids are too strong but is just mine opinion, so I dilute most flavors.
I started not long ago with DIY which is much better then you can buy in store, but you have to give it several weeks for steeping.

I mostly vape tobaccos, and hunted for a long time for the best ones. I am currently really liking NLV Gold tobacco, and it has become my favorite. All NLV tobaccos are good. I also tried the naturally extracted tobaccos....and I really like them, but they do have a tendency to clog coils and cartomizers so I kept searching. Give NLV (NiteLiteVapor) sold under PVLiquids.com a try.

I haven't tried too many tobacco flavors, but I'm a fan of Mount Baker's 555. It's good enough to me that I've given up searching for other tobacco flavors.


I found the 555 from Mt.Baker to be awful but don't mind their vanilla tobacco , to be honest none of them remind me of tobacco and as the OP can probably see , one mans ideal flavor is another mans worst ever lol.

Just don't expect vaping to duplicate the feel and taste of smoking analogs because it won't , i have tried to find the perfect tobacco and always came up short .

Best to try other flavors and find some you like , my local B&M offers fantastic super high grade weed flavors that i love .

Legend, from Heather's Heavenly Vapes is the closest that I have personally found to replicate a real cig. Alien Visions E-Juice makes really good tobacco vapes as well, I am a fan of both Gorilla Juice and Boba's Bounty, and I really love Hype in their non-tobacco line.

Most vapers come into this trying to replicate smoking a real cig, and really, this is not possible. The processes involved in vaping vs. smoking are just too different. My best advice is just to find a juice that you like and experiment with different juices from different vendors to expand out from there. If you have only recently stopped smoking your tastes are going to alter drastically anyway over time, at least that is the way it worked for me.

Good luck in your pursuit.

I forgot to mention, Johnson Creek has very good juice, Tennessee Cured is a vaping standard and one of my favorites, though to me, not much of a tobacco taste. I buy lots of juice from Mt. Baker Vapor, but their tobacco juice is not really their best effort, something they have acknowledged.

One big problem with a lot of tobacco juices is that they are dark juices, and will gunk-up your carto, clearo or atomizer much more rapidly than lighter juices. If I recall correctly, Legend from HHV, is one of the lighter colored tobacco juices. Both Tennessee Cured and Boba's Bounty, while popular among vapers, will require much more changing/maintenance of your coils as compared to lighter juices such as Hawk Sauce from MBV, and Hype from AVE.

Let it steep for a month or longer, and it gets much, much better.

Nearly everything I've gotten from Backwoods Brew has been awesome. They seem to have the best tobacco flavors I've come across.

So true! I LOVE the 555 and could care less for the Vanilla Tobacco! :facepalm:

On another note, whatever flavor Johnson Creek uses for the disposable Blu tobacco flavor is delicious! I wish I knew what it was so I could order it...although I'm sure it's a 'custom' flavor specially made for the Blu brand :(

Yet another +1 on HHV's Legend. Huntsman is also really good too -- clean, lighter weight, less sweet and easy on coils. Tastes a bit too much of maple right out of the mailbox -- needs a long steep.

Ahlusion's Smooth Criminal is *fantastic*. Also needs a long steep, but the throat hit and mouth feel of this juice are just spot on to a cigarette. It does have some extra sweet notes, too, but they don't get in the way. Currently my favorite tobacco.

And may as well give Halo's tribeca a try, too. Tribeca is a binary experience. You'll either hate it or love it. It does not taste like tobacco to me, but it somehow manages to fire the same neurons in my brain as tobacco in that it really doesn't taste particularly good, but my brain quickly concludes it wants more of it anyway. Some days a lot more! Certainly an experience worth having.

Good luck!
-Steve.
