My father is still insisting on "cigarette taste"... So I recommend tobacco absolute? Right?

[jdg]

I bet that tobacco absolute is damned close.. but, who knows
Me, I don't like the taste of cigarettes!!

They're an acquired taste... why we all bothered acquiring it is the question. Yes, I'll never forget the early days, smoking stolen Doral Menthol Lights under the bleachers, fighting the spins and the urge to vomit. God we were cool.

Halo's tobacco base is very cigarette-ish to me. I love the torque 56 flavoring. It tastes like a cigarette soaked in 555. Amazing! I have my suspicions that they use a tobacco absolute base. Bella Valente is good too, but more robust like a cigar.

Get the Tobacco Vapriot flavor from LeCig...it's the closest to tobacco I've ever tasted, and it's US made.

make your own... get the most foul tasting substance you can imagine soak it in some pg for a week so the flavor leaks out... add some nic and inhale ... only been vaping a short while ran outa juice so went to an analog yuck!!! how could i have ever thought that tasted good?

Yeah
Exactly
Cigarettes tasting good is an addicts illusion
I always faced that I knew better .. there WAS this 1 in every maybe 100 that I "enjoyed" but

Exactly
Almost everyone finds smoking to be sickening and or painful when they take it up
And no one starts because they "enjoy" it

Sigh
I just had him on the phone and showed him everyones recommendations and he keeps wanting to get on their websites and find a phone number. Why, I have no idea. He is not usually that way.

FSUSA has phone numbers. They have a 1-800 number 1-800-705-7013 and they also have a number for both owners Pam 520-429-7220 and Dave 520-237-9644

I actually talked to Dave for about a good 20min the other evening.

i think people need to realize that NOTHING other than actually smoking a cig, is going to taste like a cig. ever. i had a cig recently, it tasted like ashtray.

I got a bottle of Pall/Mall for my dad and tried it. My impression was "Yuck! Tastes like an ashtray." Smoked a real cig last week and it did to!

I recently got some of The Original at liquidxpress.com - I thought it had a pretty realistic analog taste. They also sell that flavoring concentrate.

+1 on the LiquidXpress "Original" One of the best analog tastes.
Now if you want a nice smooth tobacco taste ... not really cigs (hard to explain) AVEjuice Boba's Bounty is fantastic.

VS Tampa @24mg is the stuff. ALL Vaperite tobaccos just plain embarrass every other vendor's tobacco. Vermont Vapor has Smoke, which is a combination of their natural tobacco extract with artificial tobacco flavoring. Mrs. Doctor Vapenstein and I both have a positive initial reaction to it, but I need to use a little more before I talk about it. Reviews coming on Halo and Vermont Vapor juices this week.

If I get this 1.5 ml vial Tobacco absolute w/ ethyl alcohol - $4.00 : BlueMist Vaping, Quality Vaping Supplies, Reasonable Prices and put it in some pg nic juice with some vg... what might that end up tasting like?

That's pure TA cut in half with PGA.

Search posts started by scubadantan to find out how to cut that down to a usable additive to any e-liquid.

I use (and like) it a lot. Most say it has a slightly dry hay-ish taste and that's what I get too. Not a floral taste at all. It also needs sweetened with some Ethyl Maltol or Cotton candy or the like.

 

[Vapenstein]

Also Vapor Station, Velvet Vapors and BlueMist Vaping tobaccos use absolute. If you want an analog-like vape they generally use some combination of natural tobacco extract, tobacco absolute, and artificial tobacco and/or smoke flavorings.

I have casually referred to the Analog Replacement Sweepstakes in my reviews, and maybe I should just make a menu item of it on Vapenstein.

my father was the same way, hated the flavors i gave him and preferred flavorless cut with VG. he said that felt the closest to smoking an analog. I think xg4bx is right, no eliquid is going to taste like smoke from a buring cig, you may be able to copy the smell of tobacco but its not going to taste and feel the same as smoking an analog. i've havent tried tobacco absolute so im not sure but it hope it works out for your father

 

[Vapenstein]

Tobacco absolute is just a concentrated extract in the end. You need to have some artificial flavor that adds smoke or something that captures the burning paper element to completely pull off the illusion. Vermont Vapor tobaccos have it, especially their Smoke, which is a combo of their natural tobacco extract and artificial flavors.

I was in the same boat for the first three weeks after quitting analogs back in Dec of '09. Here are my choices for a taste and smell feel of an analog:

Camel, DK TAB, and 555 all Dekang
