Halo liquid - How is it made? Tobacco in it?

[uzzaperez]

I would really like to know if Halo juices, or which Halo juices, contain ingredients/flavors derived directly from tobacco. I really like some of the Halo juices, but am trying to move away from tobacco derivatives. Any feedback would be helpful. Thanks.

As far as I know, all nicotine liquid bases use tobacco derived nicotine. Most, if not all tobacco flavors are tobacco derived. I believe that all of Halo's flavors are tobacco flavors.

Correction, none of the Menthol flavors (Cool, Newpure, & Menthol Ice) are actually a tobacco flavored. They are only menthol plus other un-identifiable flavors. I cant speak for the non-menthols though.

As for where the nic comes from... couldnt tell ya. I know some places use a "synthetic" nic which just a nic that is lab created rather than derived from a plant. No diff really, other than no chance to get tobacco specific crap in there too. Anyway, just my 2cents.

Great, please point us to the sellers that use synthetics.

I doubt any e-liquid factory uses synthetic nicotine - the costs would be ridiculous.

This thread has a lot of infoon it: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...nthetic-nicotine-there-really-such-thing.html

Is bombdrops using synthetic nicotine? If so I'll check it out.

Yeah, the nic I'm not so worried about. Gotta get it somehow I guess. I'm more interested in the flavoring...like VaporPhreak said, the idea is to avoid the tobacco-specific carcinogens that are reportedly found in some tobacco flavored juices. I haven't heard about them being in all juices, which should be the case if the problem was with tobacco derived nic.

It is kind of a bummer because I think one of the best tobacco flavors on the market is Tasty Vapor's Tobacco, but you can't really get a flavor that is more directly derived from tobacco than that one. My Freedom from Halo is pretty mild on the tobacco taste so I was hoping the flavor was coming from something other than a direct tobacco derivative. I'd also like to give Smooth-8 and Bella Vanilla a go but I'm trying to find out about the tobacco derivatives first. Bella Vanilla doesn't sound like a tobacco flavor so it would make sense if it was "clean" but what about Freedom and Smooth-8?
