Let's talk about a synthetic liquid - Johnson Creek Smoke Juice - JC Original.
I will catch up on the thread later however right now I just want to say that I happened to stick some Johnson Creak - Original in my Vapeonly BCC and damn that is one mighty fine synthetic tobacco. I know I may receive a blank on this post both because there are many knockers of JC and also because its off topic (unless juices that resemble a NET or invoke a question about whether they are a NET apply).
It is performing really well in the BCC. this is the first time I've used a synthetic in a BCC and think the reason this juice tastes so good is that BCCs generally perform better with synthetics than with NETs.
I am finding it hard to know what's in this juice because unlike NET's where we are trying to pick the blends of single leaf extractions and various types of tobacco's, one is trying to detect the synthetic additives and proprietary concentrates (Flavor Apprentice, Flavorart, and a bunch of European flavor masters). If I had to take a stab I would say I can taste some kind of synthetic Virginia, maybe a hint of TA and some stag leaf or Type M Flavor Apprentice. It is the way these flavours integrate that makes it passable as a NET. It's all tobacco in taste. There is no hint of fruit or dessert in this juice and its not very sweet at all outside the PG/VG component. There may be very subtle undertone of caramel or vanilla but all it does is give the tobacco profile some lightness or mild sweetness. I have to search for any caramel or vanilla when
vaping the juice but it plays like a rich, moist tobacco flavour reminiscent of the Vermillion River range. If I didn't know any better I would think there was some component in this juice that is a natural extraction but I know this is not the case. This is one of the formative juices in the fledgeling vaping market back before NETs were on the market.
I know taste is subjective but I don't get the criticisms against Johnson's Creek. I have, in the last few months, ordered synthetics that were drain worthy I disliked them so much but this one is a winner in my book. It's target market is most likely not some of the very discerning netizens in this group but for the individual who is new at vaping and wants a liquid to simulate that rich tobacco flavour, this juice would have a good chance of hitting the right notes with them.
I really enjoy a good synthetic from time to time especially a tried and true one like JC Original. It's a nice change to vape something that doesn't gunk up equipment yet still retains a good tobacco rich flavour.
If I discovered this juice 3 years ago it would be in my top 3 juices. It's definitely in my most favourite synthetics right now alongside some Vapor Station juices, Aromea-juice WTA's and COV's Black and Tan. I wish I had some of the other blends from JC to try but I only got this one particular bottle with a W2V order from Vulcanvape and decided to throw it in to try it.
100s of NETs to review and I go and review a synthetic. What can I say. I am quirky and others have given such outstanding reviews on some of my favourite NETs that anything from me would be sub-standard.
