Since I see Lorann's Naturals mentioned, did anyone happen to try my recipe?

2% Black Cigar(VZ)
2% Tobacco Blend Alc.(TPA)
2% Cinnamon Danish(TPA)
2% Graham Cracker(TPA)
2% Cherry VG(LOR)
2% Maple VG(LOR)
2% English Toffee VG(LOR)
1% Almonds VG(LOR)

Cherry is actually super interesting. Maybe that's why some people get raisin? This does look delicious even
If it didn't taste like Boba's

Is is basically Boba's for you?

Ok I tried the B&M(VZ) with Coconut(VZ) and I believe it is the missing flavor that we have been looking for.

I re-worked my recipe from the other thread with the B&M and Coconut from VZ and I think this is the closest match to boba's that I have tried so far. I can taste all the flavors in boba. I cannot find anything missing. I think we need to play with the percentages a little to dial it in. The following recipe is a little dry and needs a bit of sweetener.

I made a 5ml batch at 6mg 30pg/70vg

3% Cinnamon Danish(TPA)
3% Graham Cracker(TPA)
6% Black & Mild(VZ)
1% Coconut(VZ)
1% Mts Vape Wizard(FA)

I am new to DIY juice. I mixed this at 12 mg, 70PG/30VG. My mix doesn't really taste like Boba's but it is very good. Thanks for the recipe.

every time i vape boba's i get a rich tobacco and a honey graham cracker taste, that i love! My wife (who doesn't vape) hates boba's and says it taste like molding raisins. I have thought long and hard about the ingredients in boba's to attempt to make my own, but i want to be sure on the flavors that i taste in boba's before proceeding. I think my wife might be somewhat correct on the raisin flavor, but definitely not molding raisins. The more comments i read, the more i now question my own taste and or judgment, and that is sad!

I dont get how you guys are using vz black cigar, i dont think it was even aroumd when bobas was created or was it?

When I mix up some black cigar at 5% and no other flavors, it reminds me of boba's but there are flavors missing and it's not as intense. I doubt that it is really in boba's. I'm thinking boba's base is NET. Just a guess though.

Whew! That took awhile to read this thread. Lots of great sounding recipes here. Some that I even have the ingredients for. lol

Question- Has anyone tried TFA Black Honey Tobacco? Either instead or in conjunction with the Black&Mild/Black Cigar? Never had Boba's Bounty but I see lots of people saying honey.

I've been working for a few weeks on a Candied Cavendish type recipe and so far I've got 3 separate tobacco flavors in it + a couple drops of Tobacco Absolute which I guess would make it 4 different tobaccos. That one we KNOW is NET and one tobacco just wasn't cutting it.

It becomes harder to contribute opinion of many recipes here because everyone tastes differently. However, I haven't tried one recipe in this thread that came close, not even my own. Some good recipes here though.

I get zero Old Captain out of Boba's, personally.

I'm still waiting on tao's results with his snus extraction. From this point on, I'm sticking with VG, or alcohol based flavorings (or going to try to). PG has been singled out as the culprit to my vaping malady, which is a shame, because I have many great pg-based flavorings.

I'll be having a sale in the classifieds in the near future.

What's wrong with the PG? Are you allergic to it or something?
