I like the Halo tobaccos. So far I think Voodoo is my favorite, give that a try.
i've just recently gone to vaping to get off the analogs.
I thought i really wanted tobacco flavors.
It has turned out that i actually would prefer slightly menthol or slightly fruity in my vape.
(was smoking the Marlboro Southern Cut for last year and a half or so).
Of the Halo's tobacco pack -at 24mg- i enjoyed all but the Turkish (been mixing it and still can't really like it).
The Midnight Apple turns out to be my fave followed by Longhorn or Prime (can't quite decide).
Midnight Apple is like apple jolly rancher, with a touch of mild tobacco (a little airy-er than i'd like)
Longhorn is a mild and light sweet-ish tobacco flavor a touch of maple,
Prime is nutty-ish, but if i just ate something nutty, then it tastes like Lay's potato chips (yea, go figure)
and if i just ate potato chips, it tastes nutty, not peanutty, maybe like chestnutty.
(please note, tastes vary from person-to-person, and within one person as your taste buds and smell
return to normal)
Halo seems to me like it's good out of the mail - do not notice any change over 3 weeks or so.
I did refill with a 30mL Midnight Apple at 18mg just to try to get my nicotine down.
Im chain vaping it now! lol. and it's not harsh but still does have throat hit.
Further to this, i agree with you on what you mentioned about steeping ... it's for the birds.
If i gotta buy all my juice 4 weeks in advance, this vaping thing won't work.
Maybe in a year or two, i can have the patience to let juice steep/breathe.
But right now, when i need my nic and associated hand gestures,
i need it NOW!
Once you get your bearings on what you'd like, maybe go try some juice from Mount Baker Vapor
and mix your own. I did, trying to look for the perfect light apple and ended up finding something else i like.
Happy Vaping and Be Healthy.

I've got Halo's tobacco sampler on the way.Tobacco (and other) flavors are like drink flavors. Both are liquid bases. When someone labels a soft drink as "Iced Tea", if it's not made with tea bags it just might be a disappointment.
Tobacco flavors come in two types. One is made with actual tobacco leaves that are heated and the juices are withdrawn and the others are made with flavors that are "just like tobacco" (but maybe not). WTA (whole tobacco alkaloids) make the real tasting stuff and might give you some of the things that satisfy the desire for a smoke.
I'd recommend Halo's tobacco sampler for around $25 or so for a start. Torque56 and Tribecca are my two favorites from the sampler.
I'm a Dekang Tobacco and RY4 fan, too. You can buy 50ml of either from Madvapes or Hoosierecig for $11 to $13. Everyone needs some Dekang and maybe some Hangsen around.
Lately, I've settled on Stormy's Vapor Cellar "Cloud Nine" juice for a daily vape. It's a mild tobacco flavor. I still vape Dekang and Hangsen back and forth with the Cloud Nine.
Lots of people search for the perfect Marlboro. Torque 56 from Halo just might be that. When I first vaped it, my initial impression was "just like standing in the smoking area at work!". Try it and see what you think ...
good suggestions so far! halo, bwb and ahlusion - I use all three…
I say you try a net and an absolute… you might love/hate them… I'd also throw Goodejuice in the equation as they have nets, absolutes and lab juices… bwb and ahulsion have net and absolutes too...
Funny... I was thinking about GEJ too, since Ahlusion and BWB were already mentioned. GJ Patriot is a fine of tobacco flavor and a great way to break into NET'S (naturally extracted tobacco)
Also, great recommendation on Dekang, but everyone should try DK Tab at least once. WARNING- DK Tab is highly addictive![]()
I've got Halo's tobacco sampler on the way.
For where you are in your journey, I would say try at least one or two Hangsen flavors from Caterpillarvapes. You can try their Tab Blended (A DK-Tab replica), RY4, Highway, Flue Cured or whatever you may think looks good. They're only $2.99 a 10 mL with $2.99 shipping.
Haven't tried a ton of tobaccos, but 555E from BWB is my favorite so far. A little weak on throat hit, but love the taste.
