Wild Turkey and Acadian Gold from Goodejuice.

These juice hold up rather well with time. If there is any drawback to that, it's that it may mean that if you don't like it now, the only thing time will do is allow for you to appreciate the flavor, not that the flavor will magically turn into a liquid that you like. adammg, these juices, Acadian and Wild Turkey, are pretty true to the taste that you described.

Thanks for the review, interesting that they extract their own nic.




I'm curious about this ash-like aspect. Would this be similar to the 'smokiness' aspect that I get from W2V London (at least I think that was the one) or is this something different? I do remember an ashiness from a flavor I tried back in July called turbosmog from myfreedomsmokes... perhaps that one was a standard TA. Regardless, the ashiness doesn't really appeal to me which is all the more reason I appreciate these reviews. Perhaps I'll just stay with Gold Rising, it's really found a special spot in my juice rotations.

cheers

Billh may know that juice, Turbosmog, but the ashiness of TA is on level 10 where BBT is about a 5. Mainly what the ash-like qualities in BBT amounts to is an overall dry mouthfeel, not quite ash; common TA is ASH, among a bunch of other things.

I got my ahl honey-cured and BgB both are amazing. I can really appreciate the bgb for what it is although I have come to the conclusion that burley really isn't my favorite tobacco. But such a nicely crafted juice. The honey cured was great as well perfect flavor of honey, I just wish the tobacco profile was more flu cured Virginia and less burley. But that's my personal taste, can't discredit ahl for that. So far of the nets I've tried I'm gonna try to rank them in order of my own personal enjoyment. In no way does this mean I'm saying one is better than the other. In fact, all are amazing representations of what the vendor was intending.

1. Gej Fire cured
2. Ahl Honey cured
3. Hhv Legend
4. Ahl Bluegrass Burley
5. Hhv Heavenly Army
6. Gej Acadian Gold

Only reason heavenly army isn't getting much action is cause it seems shockingly similar to legend, only toned down a little with less cherry pipe and more Cavendish perhaps. Almost like legend light. Maybe more steeping will bring out something unique to it.

Yeah, I even the Acadian Gold, and which I prefer the least is a wonderful juice. It reminds me of a fresh unadulterated RYO pouch of tobacco, very similar to what Adam describes, it's just not what I'm looking for. Also, if you live somewhere cold get a high ratio of PG or you won't ever enjoy NETs due to improper wicking. It took me quite a few ml's to really figure this out cause it wasn't nearly as much of a problem for me when I was using artificially flavored juices.

Looking to try some NETs. only one I've had it seems has been VR KPB. While I liked it, it was a little too sweet. Don't get me wrong, was good, but after awhile it reminded me of coffee/cappinco, chocolate, vanilla. This will sound weird, the e liquid I liked best was out of a NJoy King Bold disposable. It tasted just like the smell of a fresh pack of cigarettes. Bitter sweet kind of, maybe the faintest hint of honey. Not sure how to describe it. What would yall suggest I try next thats reasonably priced and has small bottle to try. Also would like to be able to just vape it straight out the mailbox.

Thanks

P.S. Cigarette tobacco is only tobacco I smoked, never smoked cigars (Few Swisher Sweets in my lifetime) and never pipe tobacco. Just Camels and Marlboro

I hate to be the honest one and spoil any positive visions you have, but I noted two things you said that must be addressed. One, while some people like smoke juice right out of the mailbox, the truth is, the large majority of people prefer to steep their juices from 1 - 4 weeks (some longer). That doesn't mean you cannot find some vendors who stock juice on their shelves so they arrive to you already steeped (Johnson Creek comes to mind). But there are not many of those vendors and they are generally not NETs (Naturally Extracted Tobacco). Keep an open mind about steeping because you will find it is a friend more than a foe.

The second truth is there are few (if any) smoke juices that taste like a Marlboro or Camel. Just the way it is. Again, keep an open mind. If you do, you will realize you don't want anything that tastes like a cigarette. And you'll wonder why you wasted all those years smoking something that tastes so horrible.

Sample as many juices as you can. You are bound to find a few you really enjoy. This is a good thread to visit for finding those juices. Good luck adammg.

I'm convinced that a lot of people just haven't figured out the difference yet. Probably the same ones that call us cork sniffers!

I'm afraid this response was rude on my part. Please accept my apology Scarecrow and welcome to the thread. Hope it helps you find good tobaccos. PM sent.

Before I stumbled into this thread I didn't know the difference. I was vaping a few NETs and didn't even know it. Heck, I thought Boba's Bounty was a tobacco juice. A LOT of people come in here not knowing the difference, there's no shame in that.

My first review in here on 6/7/12 of Halo's Captain Jack, a non-NET, didn't stop me from posting. While I knew it was a non-NET, I had no clue as to where to begin. Essentially, it began just by posting in this thread.

Just checking out my Vermillion River samples. I have Classic Blend, K-Max, and Poker Blend.

They're only a few days old and my frame of reference is so small for this stuff that about the only observervation I have is that they all sort of remind me of Johnson Creek flavors, only done with a much lighter hand...say, in the range of JC Domestic, Kentucky Cured, and Silverthorn. I prefer these over the JC because the JC stuff was a little over the top for extended vaping.

I'll let them steep and see if I get anything more enlightening or useful out of them to share later.

JC was like standing very close to the downwind side of a campfire to me. Some people like "smokey" though.

Yeah, I started off thinking JC flavors were quite authentic....then they seemed cloying....then spittoon juice.

It wasn't so much bad flavors as just way too much for me.

Gosh darn it! I can't take a nap today because a parent is angry that an event I planned didn't work out. Good thing I have my wife to help me from lashing back at this parent with four kids that have four dads who works a part-time job and we paid for her kids to go to everything for free! (probably over $1,000 worth in two years).

In NET news, a vendor may be releasing a new NET in the style of Want2Vape London and Ahlusion Devil Dog. The difference is the liquid is cleaner and formulated into a much more all day vape style. The liquid is still just as smoky being that it is extracted from Virginia, Latakia, and Oriental tobaccos.

Found this informative.

"Cavendish is not a type of tobacco, but rather a fermentation process that infuses flavor and sweetness into the tobacco. After Virgina or Burley tobacco leaves are cured, they are then soaked/steamed with sugar-water or flavors, according to the tradition of the Cavendish process. The steaming/soaking allows the tobaccos leaves to accept the sweetness or flavors."

Thanks for the clarification. I thought cavendish was not a tobacco but rather a combination of tobaccos. This suggests more. Thanks.
