Anyone know what's happened to Latakia? I used to get this for years from MyVapeJuice, it was an amazing spicy, peppery, burnt wood flavor, but unfortunately Yimmie, the proprietor, ended up having to close shop due to the new environment we live in:(. Never could find another one that compared. Tried three or four vendors blends, and bought some Latakia flavorings from really good makers, but every single one ended up tasting like chalk for whatever reason. I'm sure there must be others who enjoyed this mix. Anyone have any ideas?

I can't remember her name but the lady who ran MyVapeJuice had some pretty exquisite mixes that could probably only be recreated by only her. They were all mainly N.E.T.'s and her extraction method, length of time extracting, etc.. all made for a very unique product. You may find that Latakia essence but don't be surprised if nothing comes close to her version. She was extremely friendly, wish I knew how to contact her.

I agree, I'm not hopeful of finding one as good as hers. Her name was Diane, but she was known as Yimmie. She closed the doors about 2 (?) years ago when things didn't look too good for the industry. And yes, she was very friendly, and a true gem. She used to pack bones for my Golden in every order. To this day, when I bring in a package Mya still thinks there will be something in there for her:)...

Yep, that was her. I use to love her Dunhill Early Morning Breakfast (think it was called) and I also enjoyed one of her Cavendish mixes too.

I had an order from her go MIA for a bit and she resent the entire order. About two weeks later the original order was finally delivered. I sent her an email letting her know I was placing an order just so I could pay for what I received and by the time she responded she said she saw it and would not send it.

She sent something else instead, a bunch of stuff she thought I'd like, along with a handwritten note thanking me for being a valued customer. She was one of the best.

Yup, that's Yimmie!
