I'm not sure if my question will make sense, but... is it reminiscent of how cavendish smells, or tastes?

I ask because way back when (when I still smoked a pack a day), I attempted to pick up pipe smoking as a hobby. So I went to a shop, picked out some cherry cavendish that smelled AMAZING, sweet and delicious... but then once it was combusting I found that it tasted bitter and disgusting (my subjective opinion), like any other tobacco to me.

Cavendish should not taste bitter.
Cavendish is not a plant or tobacco varietal: it is the name for (most commonly) Virginia and Burley tobaccos which have been put through a specific curing process and storing/cutting method. After their respective curing process, (Burley: air-cured, Virginia: flue-cured), Cavendish tobaccos are steamed, usually with sugars or flavoring in the water, in order to infuse the tobacco with moisture and a subtle sweetness. After steaming, the tobacco is stored under pressure (pressed) for an additional curing/fermentation period. Pressing can last from a few days to several weeks and flavorings and/or casing can be added at any stage throughout the process. The color and flavor of the Cavendish will vary between natural and black, depending on what flavoring is added and how vigorous the pressing is.

It may be that the cherry used to "case" the Cavendish was a bitter cherry. Cavendish that hasn't been cased should taste like a toasty or sweet Burley or Virginia.

The processing and the cut are used to bring out the natural sweet taste that is a characteristic of Virginia tobacco. This process will create a tobacco very light in taste, quite mild and easy to pack.

I didn't have any problems going from 12mg to 6mg. I tried to go to 0mg since most juice vendors don't sell 3mg and I couldn't do it. I know it shouldn't be hard to mix two bottles of juice to get 3mg but I'm too lazy and that's almost like cooking.

12mg is awesum. 6mg... I'm scurred. I'm hoping the menthol TH will help close the gap. :oops:

OOHHH!!! Good for you! I've been stuck on 12 mg going on 7 months :( Can't seem to get down to 6 due to that dang TH I still need, oh and nic ;)
The jump from 12 to 6 is a big one. I'm there as well. So I have bottles of 12 and 6 of a few flavors, and mix as needed. Sometimes all 6, sometimes all 12, and sometimes a mix.

I still have some 18 for emergencies, or times I know my vape opportunities will be limited.

So get some 6 with your 12 and dial it in.

(yo, AngiBe, pssst,...,yea, you, cummere, listen. If you stay at 12 for the next 24 months, and you still don't have a stinky, whodahell gives a gnat's ...?? You ain't smokin! Yea, da addiction thang. Oh well. Itsa easier to deal wit now. You in control of da situation!)

pretty sure Miss Cinder had a 4 day weekend, I have seen action on the twitter and facebook fronts from her (at least i assume she does those plus this) today, but none here. OFC she knows we are a better lot who can play nicely with others without the constant supervision...unlike those hellraisers on FB and Twitter.

So she has 4 days of catch up
I count 5.5 days! Her Highness Cinder of Ella checked out mid Thursday. And who can blame her, between our nonsense and traffic in North Jersey?

Plus, someone will give a succinct one paragraph summary for Cinder! :D

i drink to slow down my time travel!



i dont know the exact ingredients of KC, but i get the impression there is peppermint oil in it. and menthol is an anti-inflammatory for mucus membranes in the throat and esophagus. it also treats gas, bloating, can be good for the skin if applied directly (it is an analgesic), can help reduce stress headaches...it's good at lots of stuff.

Been addicted to Kringle's all day, partly due to this post and it definitely helped with my headache from earlier, gonna switch to VOODOO now!

Dear Mr. Ono,

I'm concerned about the latest product and wanted to be sure of a few things.

The magnitude of torque depends on three quantities: the force applied, the length of the lever arm connecting the axis to the point of force application, and the angle between the force vector and the lever arm. In symbols:

τ = r x F
τ = |r| |F| sin θ

where

τ is the torque vector and τ is the magnitude of the torque,
r is the displacement vector (a vector from the point from which torque is measured to the point where force is applied),
F is the force vector,
× denotes the cross product,
θ is the angle between the force vector and the lever arm vector.

The length of the lever arm is particularly important; choosing this length appropriately lies behind the operation of levers, pulleys, gears, and most other simple machines involving a mechanical advantage.

What exactly is the length of your lever? Will it be able to handle the force applied?

Sincerely,

Miss Winters

Dear Miss Winters,

As we have discussed, as long as the lubricating film is sufficient, the bore should withstand the rigorous strokes, regardless of the lever length.

It has come to my attention that you might have concerns over the size of our equipment. Rest assured that your complete satisfaction is our goal. Whether you are looking for a fast short term solution to a sudden need, or a longer instrument, as always, my staff is more than ready.

Of concern is the ability of your equipment to seamlessly mesh with ours, in multiple mounting configurations, in wet conditions, and to be at the ready in a moment's notice. Also, occasional rough handling at times is unavoidable, but you have assured me of the ability to withstand some punishment. But the rewards are well worth all of the preliminaries.

And again, I'm glad you are keeping a leg up on the situation.

With warmest regards,
Mr. Ono
