Natural Tobaccos

[Karla Lyle]

I would lean more toward recommending Ahlusion, GoodeJuice or HHV (in no particular order). Most of those vendors have similar steep times, but the one thing, the MOST important thing, they all have in common is that they are some of the leaders in the filtration of the extracts. All that means is that you can vape at your own leisure and not have to worry (too much) about coils getting clogged. For instance, you wouldn't want to take Want2Vape or Vaperite out on the town unless you travel with spare parts and a tool kit. When I go out, I like to travel lite with ecig stuff: a mod, two juices and no more than two attys.

Based on what I've read about your likes, I would recommend these from these:

Ahlusion: Smooth Criminal (requires and open cap steep for 48 hrs with intermittent shaking), and anywhere from a week to a month to get mature. Some say less than a week is perfectly fine, others say up to a month (I am somewhere in the middles -- about 2 weeks.) Or any of the NON-AROMATICS.

GoodeJuice: Patriot or Wrangler lite (or maybe even Apple Cured or GJ4) from their House Brewed Line. Neither require steeping necessarily, but they do benfit from it (Patriot more than WL.)


Heather's Heavely Vapes: I agree with Ax, but would also like to add that I would advise against Gandalf, Serendipity and Huntsman for now.

Figures after I have decided which ones I want ti try at HHV I find out they're closed. I will look into Uhlusion or Goodejuice tomorrow. It's been a long day. Thanks again to everyone. You guys are really a lot of help.

 

[Mr.Mann]

Guess they are closed. It says they will be closed the 21st through the 26th but you cant order now? I dont get that but guess I will wait.

They take orders from all over the worlds and I know first hand that some people in Jerusalem have made ridiculously large orders at HHV. If the were to stay open, they would have to work day and night to get caught up when they return as well as trying to stay on top of daily orders -- it would put them waaaay deep in the hole. When HHV first hit the scene, they were harldy know (a couple knew ), and like a rocket they took off. They are processing way more orders that any of us really can fathom. They are worth the wait, KL.

Ahlusion will be closed as well, so you may have to try GeJ. Man, I wish I was stocked on HHV cause I'd take care of you in a heartbeat.

I was replying, noticed Mr. Mann replied, and I realized I didn't have to. I'm calling out of work sick next week, and forwarding all of my emails to the Mann residence.

I was just playing Mr Mann Because Axo said the other day that his brand-new GeJ tasted of "wet dog" and it was just some good-natured joking. I have the utmost respect for GeJ and all of the juices of theirs I have tried are at the least interesting and vapable, at the most among my favorites.

Okay, now.

While I find the recent comments about GeJ to be funny, I know that the "funky" taste is probably acquired for some, refreshingly honest to others, and extremely familiar and long sought after by a few; but Patriot is not with that particular bunch. The funky bunch (though I love them) is more like *Acadian Gold, *Wild Turkey, Organic Tobacco #1, and to a lesser degree, *Natural Perique (*best in the spring to summer). Patriot is more in the band of GJ4, and to a lesser degree, Vita Bella (those are all hybrids i.e. other flavors coupled with tobacco.) While Wrangler Lite is technically a hybrid, it is in the middle of the straight tobacco and the hybrids in terms of taste. The natural cocoa (what makes it a hybrid) in Wrangler Lite adds, in the strangest way, a cigarette like flavor that makes that juice quite reminiscent -- well, more like how the minds eye remembers cigs tasting, but not the same taste (obviously) if you were to have a face off between the two at the same time.

There are nutty notes in Smooth Criminal, though it is not what I would consider nutty.

Exactly! I remember posting something about nuttiness in SC when I first tried it, and everyone thought I was nuts! I then resigned myself to the flavor of something roasted or toasted. I think SC is overtaking Boba Tea as my absolute favorite juice.

Ahem...you are not (that's all I will say).

Although, it is NOT a 555!

It probably means they will process orders up until the 21st but they are not taking new orders as of now.

Hey all

I have been tracking this thread for the last month, and have actually read every post, haha… Figured it was about time I contributed. I will keep this post to the point, NET reviews… But also figure that I can get to know, and joke with you guys in the coming days, posts, threads, future, etc.

Basically I am going to cut and paste from a Word doc that contains all of my NET and other tobacco related notes… But first a little background. All of the juices that I have tasted were steeped for at least 2 weeks or more prior to recording my subjective thoughts. They were all tasted on a 2.0 ohm atty at between 6-8 watts to try and experience a range of flavors. Also, if they are on this list, I liked them and would potentially buy more (i.e. the misfire orders are not included, but noted to self elsewhere)… I suck at the number rating thing. So here goes…

Ok, so I haven't kept tabs on this thread like I should. Now I'm off to add that post to WordPad and SkinniePost to my will.
Seriously mate, thanks. I wish I had the talent to express these flavors the way some of you do since it really makes choosing my juices so much easier.

Oh, I know . I just got protective -- even though I totally get why he said that .

but would also like to add that I would advise against Gandalf, Serendipity and Huntsman for now.

Mann isn't always right, but he's never wrong.

 

[Bronze]

Mann isn't always right, but he's never wrong.

Reminds me of a guy I once worked with. We said about him..."Seldom right, but never in doubt". (No reflection on MMann whatsoever BTW). The discussion just reminded me of that guy I used to work with.

Mann said a mouthful in the quote I quoted.

 

[gthompson]

Ending this gosh awful work week with some GJ4.

 

[Maconi]

Wow, sorry for the little stir my question made... lol.

Funnily enough I actually was originally under the initial impression that "natural tobacco" would fall under cig flavors as well, which I can see obviously isn't necessarily the case now. My mistake there.

It's funny that someone would mention just smoking straight PG with nic as a solution to no flavor/aroma as we tried that but he said the PG was way too sweet (although I had a bad coil on the Cobra at the time so that could have been the issue) lol.

I've ordered some Wrangler Lite with both nic and 0 nic so we can mix it around and see where he might like his nic levels (that is possible to do without messing the juice up, right?). I'll let you know how he likes it.

 

[gthompson]

Your question was fine. There are a lot of people out there that think that whatever they like is what everyone is supposed to like too. The truth is, there's no telling what someone will like when it comes to smoke juice.

 

[Bronze]

It wasn't you Maconi. Besides, we're back on track.

Yes, that is very possible! What size and and nic did you get? That, regardless of the nic strength --even though I think it should be high -- was a very good idea. Hoping it all works out.

p.s. As has been stated, you are fine.

 

[Mr.Mann]

Mann said a mouthful in the quote I quoted.

I am learning now that those juices, while I still hold them in high regard, are different than they once were. Even still, the caveat that I included was "as of now." My statement wasn't a knock on those juices, it was more of me playing matchmaker.

 

[Mr.Mann]

Your question was fine. There are a lot of people out there that think that whatever they like is what everyone is supposed to like too. The truth is, there's no telling what someone will like when it comes to smoke juice.

That is true. But generally, if you've only tried one, you can only recommend one. Between all of us, there is little that we can't speak to -- whether it will truly work is different.
