Natural Tobaccos

[MFToms59]

... These just look so amazing, and much less sci-fi futuristic dildo-esque...

Another reason I like Box mods.

I understood the meaning as originally written and wasn't offended, I wasn't sure you knew Cnew's gender... a case of reading too much into your post.

And my response was 99% tongue in cheek. No worries

I also have added an epipe to my vaping wishlist. These just look so amazing, and much less sci-fi futuristic dildo-esque.

I have spent much of this last week vaping on the plethora of QnJ NETs that I have (thanks Bronze for getting me started here). I am really enjoying the Clove Cove. Djarum Blacks and Specials were a very special treat for me in my analog days (2 months analog free today!!!), and the Clove Cove from QnJ is a very good clove tobacco that fills the void that was once filled with the occasional Djarum. I have also thoroughly enjoyed the QnJ contest flavors that Mr. Mann sent to me. The Fire Cured as well as the Turkish were very welcome in all of my delivery devices, and it was a day of sadness when the last drops of those two especially were put into tanks. I am hoping that these will make a speedy arrival to the menu at QnJ's site.

I love my pipes and love the mods as well (both eric's edition nemesis showed up YES!). I'll be doing a family portrait of sorts once the camera battery charges up a bit...

Vaping on a well made pipe is solid as well. Highly recommended.

On a side note...I hate the USPS and/or Australian customs....Anthony's Ahlusion package that I shipped to him should have been there by now....keeping fingers crossed that these show up very, very soon for you, Bud!

Hey Chimps...we're all looking forward to adding the four contest juices to QnJ's menu. Glad you are enjoying them. Seems many of us are.

Hi All!

Sorry I didn't respond sooner. Busy weekend with my girls. Dad and big brother are away at a lacrosse tournament, so we are full on 'girls weekend' mode!

They do say, while the cat's away, the mice will play (with Daddy's toys!)

Anyhow, yes, I am a woman. No, I was not at all offended. It's understandable that anyone would presume I am male:
My forum name is neutral, and there is a natural inclination and a common cultural perception that pipe smoking, tobacco discussion and all things mechanical are predominantly male interests.
So, no worries!

Thanks for the encouragement, but I still believe this would be me with a pipe:

And what would be soooo wrong with the bottom right pic?!?! J/k

My W2V and QnJ orders came in. I tried Louisville and it was not what I expected. Having only tried NETs from HHV, this is very different. The smoky taste reminds me of burning wood (campfire?). Not sure I can get used to this. I guess I like flavors that taste like tobacco smells, not what tobacco tastes like when burning. Or is Burley naturally smoky?
Anyway, I've got 8 others to try!!

Oh, and a sarcastic thanks to those that posted the epipe photos... now I'm shopping again. This is an expensive but informative thread. =)

Many NETizens love HHV NETs, but consider many of them to be dessert NETs. For many of the HHV NETs (not sure which ones you've enjoyed), the focus is on a blend of favors, rather than tobacco itself. W2V Signature Blends, like Louisville, are full-on tobacco -- a very different type of juice compared to most of what HHV offers. I love both companies, but the styles are very, very different.

On another note, I fired up some Ahlusion Cocoa Blend in my new Ehpro EA Mod. It's a clone of Electric Angel's EA Mod, which many have called a GG clone. For even more clone-eness, I put a Sigelei Kick clone + 18650 battery in mine. For the price ($43 shipped through a co-op), it's almost shockingly good. It doesn't have the fit and finish of the real EA Mod, but it's 1/4 of the price. Here's a pic:

I would take this opportunity to fine tune your HHV assessment RPad. I think people think of HHV as more sweet than dessert. Dessert is more cake-like (though Shadow and Heavenly Army might fit into the dessert column). But you are right, HHV is a wholly different style than W2V.

I agree. Sweet is a better descriptor for most HHV NETs than dessert...though I suppose it depends on what you eat for dessert. Ha!

In my case, the budget chose the pipe. Luckily I like the look of the Smok.

I thought it would be nice if Smok would offer an extension tube for 18650 batts. Than I made this, and changed my mind.

Is the pipe actually working like that with the extension tube?

Chaze, you jumped from one end of the spectrum of tobacco impact to the opposite end. There are many good NETs in between. Post what you have liked and what you are looking for and you'll get some suggestions for a less dramatic step in NET exploration. Hang on to the Louisville, you may like it in the future or there are many that would trade for it.

I have a 350 Gandalf and M3 - both of which I really like and use often. I also have a 500 Dwarf and, assuming USPS doesn't screw up again today, will have a 500 Dragon and 500 Akhenaten (pretty unique pipe - I'll be taking pictures). I prefer the 500s for feel and battery life but still like my 350s for overall look. All share pretty high reliability marks.

Not to derail with pipe pics but, here is my collection. The pics are crap but, they all are great.



I must say though that I think the Dragon is my favorite... you cant tell but, his stem has bits of white marble as if the dragon is breathing smoke.

Oh... and i have a new stem for Akhenaten coming... that one is crap.

 

[CannedWolf]

Lastly, both of my nemesis arrived




Here they are with my 69 (Kayfun 3.1 on top), Steam Machine VST, Steam Machine Dripper, and the brass kit for the 69 - all but the Kayfun are Atmomixani

just came back from shopping....pinoy desserts, anyone? ube hopia....cassava cake....banana/jackfruit lumpia....or maybe some halo halo!!!


oh, and if anyone knows who sells natural tobaccos with any of these flavors, let me know![added this part so MM doesn't get too mad at me!!! ]

 

[shatner]

That looks delicious! I'm on a strict diet and haven't had anything really sweet in weeks. I have an idea for my weekly cheat meal.

What 'derail'? Your epipes and other mods are really beautiful!!! And, to my mind, there is absolutely nothing wrong at all with posting your Natural Tobacco DELIVERY SYSTEMS!!!!
Gosh, there is so much to learn, contemplate and enjoy!
You always post really interesting and informative stuff, so this member, at least, is not complaining!!!
Thanks for sharing the photos.

Thank you.

The nice thing about those pictures is I've finally figured out what devices (both mods and delivery systems) work best for me. I've now gotten the last of the list. It's nice to be at the tail end of buying something to try it only to find that I don't like it

I agree. Beautiful pipes and on topic.
