This could turn into a nice discussion kent! Gotalot needs to weigh in! I for one love your hybrid net's And if I ha to choose it would be hybrid over net only juice. I am ecstatic over your newest release strike. Haven't vaped anything else since I dumped it in unicorn bottle when it arrived. My rotation has switch roundhouse radio an now strike. All amazing hybrids! For me virus does not have enough net or it is just playing with too many dessert flavors. I don't count virus as a net.

I would say that a true NET could only contain 1% if that was the only flavored used.

This is how I understand the industry standard as of right now when it concerns NETs.

A true NET is all NET flavoring. There can be sweetener added but no other flavor. The tobacco used in the NET can be "cased" which means that it can be flavored in the making of the tobacco. IE: A cherry pipe tobacco NET.

A hybrid is a liquid where the NET is either the primary or secondary flavor and where other flavors such as fruit, bakery, etc, has been added to make the flavor profile. IE: The Virus.

TA is considered a non-NET flavor. In my opinion, TA is made from tobacco and hence should be considered a NET. As far as I know, no synthetics or other flavoring is added when the TA flavoring is extracted from the tobacco leaves.

Again this is promoting tobacco use! Isn't the goal of ejuice, to rid themselves of tobacco products? SO THIS ISN'T A DEVICE TO TERMINATE SMOKING? BUT ONLY ENHANCE IT, BASED ON THESE NEW FLAVORS. WHY PROMOTE A GOOD TOBACCO BLEND, AND HAVE AWARDS, FOR SOMETHING, WE ARE ALL TRYING TO QUIT??? ON TOP OF THAT, TO DISQUALIFY A SUCCESSFUL COMPANY! WHAT IS THE REAL PLAN? To discredit a company that helped many to quit smoking? That made a juice so good, no one could contend? (Yet, STILL fulfilled the original goal of getting people off of tobacco! ) NO MATTER WHAT ANYONE SAYS, THE results of this year's pools have been bought, and are useless. Money was spent to have nicoticke disqualified! Which I'll offset with my vote!

Well my brother, ( or sister) you are certainly entitled to your opinions, but please don't be offended if your opinions fall on deaf ears here.

Have yourself a wonderful evening.:)

You know more than I do about it.

I wouldn't just assume 100% of vapers want to rid themselves of tobacco products entirely. There are lots of people who engage in dual use. There are also many who still chew, or who use SNUS.

Naturally Extracted Tobacco *flavoring doesn't really impart any "smoke" - smoke is the enemy

In as much as some people find the flavor of tobacco detestable - I enjoy it (lots of people do!)

How is vaping a NET promoting tobacco use? This is purely YOUR opinion and while you are entitled to your opinion, I am entitled to vape what I want. I don't like sweet flavors and prefer a tobacco flavor. Effing sick and tired of people telling other what they can and can not like!

I posted this before I read the NETty Awards thread. I believe TA is a NET. This is an opinion of select others that are again, trying to tell people what is and isn't like they have all the say in this matter.

Its not promoting tobacco use if anything its discouraging it by offering a suitable replacement for those who still want tobacco flavor without all the negatives. I didn't quit smoking because I hated tobacco I quit because I wanted to get away from all the nasty stuff that comes from inhaling combusting plant matter, not to mention all the additives. I still love the taste of tobacco and whether it be NET or not and am glad I can still get that flavor and aroma without having to smoke. A lot of people love tobacco flavor but switched to vaping to get away from a lot of the negatives that come with smoking it and this is a great alternative for those people.

As for all the other stuff you mention like disqualification and all that I don't know what you are talking about so I cant comment.

I am shameless about TA - it's good stuff.

I go an extra mile and add whole tobacco alkaloid liquid to my nicoticket hybrids. I love tobacco and always will.
Atlanta is a great hybrid as well.

WTAs are a whole new level.
