I seriously (I've said it before) am not buying any more untested liquids. I finally got the liquids I am settling down with. My last attempt at untested liquids was N O T good. Aside from NET.com trials, No mas!

And you'll say that yet again after that plan doesn't stick for more than a few weeks :D

I may settle down one day, I don't know. It would have to be the day when I stop coming to this section of the forum, otherwise it would be like planning to never try a new restaurant again, while hanging out with a bunch of people who talk about the latest great restaurant.

There's something that I've been thinking about today while switching back and forth between Patriot and Dragon's Fire and Serendipity and so on, and if it's a line of discussion that's already been covered before then someone can simply say so and I can nix the notion. But...

If you had to go though your collection of various juices and single out one that you would be content with vaping for the remainder of your vaping days, which one would it be? Unlike me, most of you have delved into the mass majority of NET's available and it would be interesting to see just which NET you tobacco aficionados just couldn't live without and (albeit begrudgingly and reluctantly in most cases) would choose to vape exclusively if you had to do so.

I kid I kid. I would pick Vita Bella. It's dessert, it's tobacco, it's delicious. Vanilla tobacco is also my favorite sub-genre. Not saying Vita is a vanilla tobacco, I'll never say that, just.. you know, just saying.

I would love love LOVE to make my own e-liquids. The reward of being able to create a liquid from a favorite cigar/cigarette must be a real thrill for anyone who has time and patience to do it. A labor of love for sure but one you need spare time for :(

Wow, that totally flopped. :blush: I thought it was called Dunhill Early Morning Pipe? Yo liquid, girl!

And the road-map I am referring to is the number of people I've talked to that said, "Oh, I am using Scarf's method!" It keeps popping up when I talk to people (DIYers and more) about their extractions. A lot of people know about it and use it.

I'm thinking we SW suburbanites should get together at Nick's place and have our own little mini-vape bash. Bring along some of your favorite juices and after we hang out with Nick at GeJ for a bit, we could find a place to go hang out and vape. Anybody up for it this Fall?

While not in the SW suburbs, I would do this. It's only about 2 hrs away.
 
I thank all of you who have contributed to this thread; I would not be vaping the NET flavors I do without your insights.

I have a couple questions, however. I have been perfectly content to use my Vision Spinners and a KTS Storm with a pile of ProTanks for vaping due to frequent traveling and frequently working outdoors. Now I'm starting to wonder if I'm missing something on the hardware front...

The other part of this concerns the juices themselves--I frequently do not taste the same kinds of things many of you do with a particular juice. I will point out that I vape 0 mg nicotine juice, which was one of my goals when I started doing this in February. I always thought nicotine was/is odorless and tasteless; how does it or could it change the flavors I'm tasting?

Nicotine accounts for much of the throat hit. The flavor is usually carried in the PG/VG. The more PG, the more flavor and also TH. VG is sweetness and vapor.

Dripping atomizers deliver better flavor than tanks/clearos but can but troublesome travelling, or on the go. Some do it just fine, others find it messy, and it's hard to do while driving :) I'm a little short on time right now, but that's the gist of it.

I worked through a full tank of QnJ ouR whY qu4tro. It's like no other RY4 I've had (for obvious reasons). In a nutshell, it's quite excellent. The mix of fire cured and vanilla tobacco extract gives it a really nice pipe tobacco flavor on the inhale and then the caramel/vanilla notes just hang on the tongue on the exhale. It's not so much a bold caramel or vanilla flavor as much as it's a simple rich tobacco sweetness on the tongue.

Anyone looking for an ry4 that definitely has tobacco notes front and center with no cloying sweetness and subtle vanilla/caramel undertones should definitely get a sample of this stuff. It's still "sweet" but only in a tobaccos sense.

I didn't hit the grandpa's nightcap yet. I got stuck on the qu4tro but that's hardly a bad thing. lol

I normally bottom-feed with 510 attys or drip at home, and use T2, T3, Carto-Tanks, and cartos when out or at work. I normally use my bottom-feed Bogger Box/DNA20 as intended, but with a 510-Ego adapter I've run my tanks, at work I use a dual 14500 plastic Box VV, and on occasion my K-100 or an Innokin itaste vv.

You'll eventually get bitten, as most of us who cruise ECF, and try various AdvancedPersonalVaporizers's, Juice Delivery Systems, and all kinds of juice.

As a DIY Vaper, I've tasted nic liquid accidentally and a very small drip on my hand, it does have a bitterness and I would think it will minimally alter the flavor of a liquid, depending on the amount used.

I guess Smooth Criminal. But I hope I don't have to make that choice.

I don't know if this would be the place to post, but here goes. I spent forever trying to find a good tobacco juice, haven't tried that many granted, but the ones I did were so... bleh. Anyway, Midwest quest vapors has nothing but tobacco juices. The Havana and Jammur are my favorites, with the Blue Ridge a close second. The Havana is a cigar flavor with a hint of chocolate on the back end, vary tasty. The Jammur is a Jamaican spiced rum tobacco, very island-y. Little hints of banana, coconut, pineapple, seems like a different taste each Vape you take. The Blue Ridge is a butterscotch tobacco. None of the sweet flavors overpower the tobacco imho, but add to the flavor. Very good stuff. I've got 7 bottles on the way as we speak. Just saying. Hope this helps somebody.

Thank you for your post. I checked out the site, and could not find any mention of their ingredients nor any mention of these being Naturally Extracted Tobaccos.

They do have a wide range of RY4 flavors, and your information would be beneficial here: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...views/193327-really-big-ry4-roundup-long.html

Please, feel free to read through this thread to discover the wonders of NETs.

Ok, I've been trying NETCOM Coventry, Chris' Blend and Dover Court. All cold 70/30 12mg. My favorite is C'sB, followed by Coventry. I don't really care for Dover Court. It's just a bit too strong. I got Coventry and C'sBlend Heat for my 2 samplers. I'm sorry to say, but I get a strong mothball taste. It's toned down from when it was fresh ~30 days ago, but still there and very unpleasant.

This worries me a bit because I ordered a 30ml of Big Spirit. Which is only available in 'Heat'. I'll reserve judgment until I try it.

The Virginia has really bloomed in Chris's Blend, as has the Cavendish. I assume it's a type of vanilla Cavendish, but I could be wrong on that.

Coventry is actually a fairly similar liquid although I like C'sB more. I prefer the Turkish in C'sB over the Burley in Coventry. But they'll both be vaped up rather quickly. Oh, for those wondering it took a ~1 month for these to start coming around. I assume if you steep them for 3+ months magic will happen.

The wild cherry point from QnJ tastes exactly as described. Naturally extracted cherry pipe tobacco. It's not sweet either and I love that. Just a simple and solid tobacco flavor with cherry hanging in the background. Easy to vape and clean flavor.

This thread has changed my vape world and I'm quite thankful for it. NETs aren't for everybody but they are certainly for me.

I don't find Dover Court strong nor do I get any mothball like flavor.... but I do know that on the juices I've tried with Latakia ( not in DC, I'm giving it just an example ) I get a taste similar to what an iodine disinfecting soap smells like and I haven't seen anyone else say anything similar, back to that taste is subjective thing.

Big Spirit tastes nothing like DC to me, so you are likely safe on that one... It is my favorite followed by Coventry. I find BS to be like a medium body flavor ciggy taste, Gold is similar but slightly darker flavor by a couple of notes down the scale ( but still the in same octave range ).
