Natural Tobaccos - Part Deux

[Jerms]

So, dare I ask? Where is everyone? Is my beloved thread coming to an end? Have all NET's been thoroughly reviewed? Are we all posted out? Somebody has to have something to say.

I'm vaping some American Spirit in a kayfun 4 with a .5 ohm coil and cotton. The new K4 vapes like the K3.1 only more parts to clean and complicate assembly. I added some Vanilla and Caramel to the AS but it's not as sweet as some months long steeped Louisiana Red.

I've been occupied with a new hobby, so haven't had much time for the forum.

Last couple days been vaping Analog Reds by QnJ. Not sure what's in it, but tastes to me like a straight-up maceration of ryo tobacco that's heavy on the Burley, some Virginia, and possibly Orientals. Pretty much a standard cig NET with no added flavors that I can detect. Doesn't stand out to me compared to other cig NETs, though it's well done, enjoyable, and has a solid tobacco impact. Great beginner NET.

Diane has some new ones coming or here already that I want to try:

and

MVJ w/Hearth & Home Marquee Magnum Opus Pipe Tobacco (no link yet)

and

MVJ w/Dunhill My Mixture 965 Pipe Tobacco (no link)

I had a small disappointment with MVJ's Centurion. Diane had sent a sample with my first order and it was wonderfully addicting. Dry, grassy, bite-y. I immediately ordered a larger bottle that has none of those qualities. I have to check the bottle she sent and see if it was STP Centurion or the regular.

I've been enjoying Ether Vapes Bright Burley: Bright Burley It's Vash's re-vamp of Pure Burley and I think it's more elegant and smooth and refined.

Also EV's Classic Virginia: Classic Virginia Which is bright and sweetish.

Vash mentioned in his thread that he's come up with a Va/Per blend that will appear soon.

I should note that he now has an option for Classic Throat Hit or Super Smooth (no) Throat Hit. I had to replace several bottles that came with the smooth instead of the classic. Not NET but, EVs Lemon Heaven is so, so good!

That's all I got in south Austin...

What's the new hobby Jerms? If I might ask?

Drawing portraits. I'm new to drawing but they're turning out quite good. Been drawing friends and family Facebook photos by request. Like vaping, there's lots to learn about technique and supplies using the internet as a teacher. With researching and several hours per photo, it's using up most my free time. New hobbies are such a blast.

Here's my first self-portrait, drawn from a photo taken last year.. yeah, I'm a longhair .

You even LOOK like a "Jeremy", Jerms!

 

[patioclark]

And a talented longhair at that. I always wished that I could draw and thanks for sharing. The drawing and your posts.

Cheers.

Thanks! I always wished I could draw and assumed I couldn't until literally a week and a half ago when I gave it a try. Drawing from a photograph is less about creative talent than patience and an eye for detail. And a few good pencils lol.

Jerms - outstanding!

 

[clnire]

Nice job Jerms! Talent among us...

 

[UnclePsyko]

Nice Jerms!
Coming from another long hair... never good at portraits though.

The confederate is a va / per blend if i recall correctly. He's just gonna dial up the perique on a new one.

It has cavendish too. I could barely tell there was perique there. I thought Confederate was decent but not as good as some others here thought it was. I tried six of Vash's juices and Bright Burley, Midnite Lite and Classic Caramel were the standouts for me.

I do like Vash's Perique. It's fuller, more developed and a little stronger than Goodejuice's but not the Sucker-Punch-To-Your-Head of RBFS' St. James Parish Perique (which I rank at the top)

I thought a dollar a milliliter was high, but $33 dollars for 30 milliliters? Gucci is right and out of my league. 8-o

Apt summation ! California company with some Italian sourced tobaccos. Looks like they are all single varietals too and priced twice as high as Clay's.

 

[dodari]

Questi prodotti costano troppo. Way too much!

Interesting. Nice website. Lots of details in describing their process and product which is cool. Looks like they are focused on single varietals. At that price though, the finished product would have to really REALLY stand out to garner any interest here. I'm sure not going to guinea pig them unless a big sale or sample pack comes up. Wouldn't mind trying the Virginia.

 

[Mazinny]

Their eight pack would make a nice gift if it was priced a little lower. Very nice presentation.
