Initially I filled up a tank took a large inhale, exhaled, and thought "What the hell did I just purchase". I considered tossing it. So I left it sit for a for few days, just got back to it the other day, and wow I am impressed. In my opinion it tastes like a sweet yeasty soft pretzel with a very slight cashew taste. Not bad at all. Not my all day vape, but I keep finding myself craving it. It's really an all around solid and complex flavor that I think I will grow to love. I'm impressed.
My thoughts about Tribeca

It's one of those flavors you keep coming back to. I was pretty much a menthol vaper until Tribeca, and now I have two all day vapes. The flavor keeps developing over time, better and better.
I finally loaded up one of my tanks with Tribeca as well and was blown away. It is awesome. It reminds me of Prime for some reason. To me they taste similar. Weird how everyone's taste buds are so different
My first and still my favorite. I have yet to nail down the taste. I get vanilla, caramel, very slight menthol and a light tropical fruit. Whatever it is it works.
one day, after running the gamut of all flavors. i'm pretty sure 2 will stay with me until they pry the ecig out of my cold dead hands (or ask me because i fear reprisals of any form): Tribeca and Kringle's Curse.
They're just perfect tastes.

Damn everyone seems to be having a completely different flavor experience than myself. oh well. I enjoy it all the same.
Isn't Tribeca the capital of Khalistan
LOL
It is impossible to synthesize the combustion of tobacco leaves taste without making an extract of something already burned.
I have yet to try any e-liquid that resembled a fine cigar or cigarette as it tastes when I smoked it.
In talking with a flavor chemist this is really impossible because there is no combustion in vaping, even if one were to take the smoke from burning tobacco and condense it all you would have are tars and carbon particulate, which will not taste like the smoke we are all used to.

I haven't tried them all but the closest to tobacco IMO is Prime 15.
Torque56 imho. I always return to it when needing a analog taste. Just better.
It's fascinating to read what other people taste in various juices. To me (and my admittedly cigarette-dulled senses), Tribeca just tastes like roasted nuts of some sort -- maybe almonds? Hard to say. It has a really strong savory-baked-goods vibe that's quite pleasant in small doses, but I couldn't vape it consistently and during daylight hours. It seems a perfect complement for like an after dinner cocktail, though.
I have two large bottles that I've revisited several times over the last coupla weeks, but I'll keep at it. Maybe the flavor (or my perception of it) will change over time.
A yup, like I said earlier it is impossible to make an e-liquid that tastes like what we smoked, be they will try!
My flavor chemist and were talking about this, and I said the one who can duplicate it will be a gazillionaire...but she was pretty quick to tell me that it is just plain highly improvable, and virtually impossible with the technology for flavorings we have today.
I personally love Red Hots, Red Hots with Menthol, Peach with Menthol, Root Beer, and Coke.
I also love Cappuccino juice in the morning!
The Coke and Root Beer are pretty kewl, you get a great throat hit, and can almost feel the carbonation bubbles!

I definitely tasted almonds initially, and still get a slight hint of that. It' definitely a unique flavor.
Another thing I will note about Tribeca is as my sense of taste started coming back stronger the taste of Tribeca changed to me. Also what delivery system you use makes a difference too. Top coil vs bottom coil give a completely different taste.
I agree; I love Tribeca, and I vape it daily. It's a caramel/vanilla blend, with a little something else.
I tried Tribeca in SI's BCC (T3) and the flavors were so muted that, what's left was like caramel candy. It didn't matter how many air holes I covered, it was hopeless.

I really enjoy Tribeca, my other favorite is Malibu. Those two are all I need to get me through a day. I use the Tribeca during the day and then after dinner have a couple of puffs of the Malibu.
I believe the best pure tobacco flavors are Torque and Prime. Prime has become my ADV and Torque helped me get off of analogs. Tribeca I liked at first but now that my taste buds are more sharp, I find it too sweet and slightly chemical tasting. I steeped it over 3 weeks so it wasn't because of that.
I'm finding anything w/vanilla or Carmel is hard for me to like because I taste it as burnt or chemical. I love both flavors in food but hard to find it balanced in a juice that I like.
