Holy vapes! I had an epiphany last night.
Recently I acquired way more juices than I needed from various vendors, so last night decided to put 4 bottles at a time in a ziplock bag, in a mini crock pot with water, and let them cook for a while. There's no temp adjust, so it gets the water pretty hot, but not too hot to touch. Took about 3-4 hours per batch. Then I unplugged it and let them cool in the water.

Did this twice with 8 bottles, of which was a bottle of Hangsen's RY4, Bobas, Moon Mountain, and various GLV bottles.

Now, I've tried Tribeca, Ahlusions Gold Rising, and pre-steeped Hangsen's. All had multiple layers of flavors, some very chemically, but I wouldn't have considered them a "tobacco". Yet everyone loves Tribeca and the like. I just didn't get it. Gold Rising and Hangsens were less offensive and vapable, but they definitely tasted like a fresh RY4. Boy was I mistaken!

I officially apologize for knocking Tribeca, or any other RY4. That crock pot steep melded the flavors of the Hangsens together, along with a good shake, and gave me a smokey tobacco with subtle vanilla, caramel tones. Wow, what a difference.

I just wonder how many juices I thought were crap, might have been decent to delicious had I cooked and shook them for a little bit.

I believe in the crock pot method! Can't wait to see what happened to El Kamino, English Bulldog, Newminster, and of course Boba's.

Awesome, definitely going to try this once I get some more juice!
