Indigo

ok after totally exhausting the search engine I have not found a do it yourself on Indigos juice. I absolutely love the Duke, Eastwood, indigo Express and another one can't remember the name.by the way, it's tobacco juice and it is wonderful. Does any body know how I could make something somewhat similar? I haven't started DIY yet because I'm still researching. I do have a bunch of stuff coming from Wizards lads so it won't be too much longer.

Tony and I share some traits when it comes to mixing. (Tony is the guy who creates the recipes for Indigo and we've known each other for a few years and talk juice mixing whenever we see each other.) That means we have a concept in mind when we start a new flavor and the development is all on the "edges" because we have enough experience to get the base/main part of the flavor without much effort.

So, if you're going to reverse engineer his mixes, go for the core first. Then start experimenting with the odd notes that tie the whole thing together. And, we're fairly old school, so it's unlikely you'll find the flavorings in some of the newer offerings.

And, I agree with your thoughts on Eastwood. It's almost as good as some of my tobacco mixes. If I didn't prefer mine, I'd be buying it. I've never been one to chase someone else's mix though. Too busy chasing mine...

you don't know how guilty I felt asking this question. trying to clone or get close to somebody's recipe. But I'm going to be doing my own juice soon and I would love to make a tobacco juice that I like. I have tried many tobacco juices and none of them come even close to Indigos juice. I appreciate your response because it makes sense. starting with a good base would be the key to all of it. thank you

Playing around is what's important. The first flavor I wanted took me 5 months to get right.

All the wonderful things/flavors I discovered on the way is what made it fun.

I honestly don't know how it can get better...it's fun...it's inexpensive...the juice is tailored to me...I don't know why everyone doesn't do it.
