Maybe you should try letting it "steep" for a week. I have no idea if there is any truth behind this process, but apparently many members say that there is. My 555 from backwoods brew has the tobacco/nutty flavor, but I'm also getting some sweet "perfume-y" taste as well. I just received it yesterday though so I'm gonna give steeping a shot as well.

When I first got it, it was very sweet and also perfumy tasting as you mention. I guess it has been steeping, because now a few days later, it does not have the perfumy taste anymore, but still not to my personal liking, as it tastes like cake batter to me, and I wanted it to tast like an analog tobacco flavor. Not a cigar, or pipe tobacco. It may still change with further steeping though, as I have only had it about three days now.

555 means nutty tobacco
however what that can be translated into all kinds of crazy flavors
I like alien visions take on it as it is totally devoid of sweet, a dry tobacco taste

RY4 is suppose to be sweet as it is normally considered a combination of vanilla-caramel and tobacco

If you want a good non sweet authentic tobacco taste you could try some barley from vaperite or some 555 from alien visions.
just remember when it comes to names like RY4 and 555 everyone's take is different, some of them significantly so. If one juice manufacturer calls there reeses peanut butter cup 555 it doesn't mean its the same at another place.
