Natural Tobaccos

[Victor Vandyke]

VapeRite APV tobacco Organic (18mg).
Produced on 6/20/12.

Manufacturer's Description:
This is a house extracted Organic tobacco that has extracts of Agave, Prune & Vanilla added to enhance the flavor. Dark, Bold, Raisin like & semi-sweet taste.

When I first received this juice I got it along with VR Organic Tobacco, VR House Extracted Tobacco and a sample of their Organic Madagascar Vanilla Tobacco. This was my least favorite of the 4 when I first tried them upon arrival. Kept it on my desk for a few days, tried it a few times, couldn't quite wrap my tastebuds around it. It seemed unbalanced, the flavors did not meld well. I tossed it in the steeping drawer, and there it rested... until yesterday when I picked it up for another spin. Wow!! The Agave has turned into a very subtle but complex sub-layer of creaminess and sugary sweetness. The vanilla has subsided far into the background and partnered with the agave to add a note of brightness, and the prune/raisin has taken on a supporting role to the tobacco to contribute it's own layer of dark, fruity, depth and character.

Very easy to chain-vape this one. Very mild but rich, smooth, creamy, and subtly sweet. The bottle might be emptied by tomorrow...

Will definately get some more of this, and hope that it doesn't really have to take 3 months of steeping to become this good.

Can't say I've seen it. I wonder if GeJ is adding a NET to a Dekang flavor? Not sure I'd trust a Chinese NET - I could easily be wrong or listening to propaganda but I have heard that the cheap smoke shops in US that sell chinese cigarettes have dangerous levels of nicotine in them in spite of what they may claim is a "light' or "regular" cigarette? (at least that's what was said on a local news broadcast).

I did. Has anyone mentioned that in this thread? I thought Dekang was, well, just regular 'flavored' juice.

The joke was that I was in fact that punk! (Hence my order of 90 mL.) But, I have no problem being part of a duo, not duel.

Your 32, 24, and 18mg combo should make for an interesting vertical tasting. Nice...

I really only did it that way so that when I burn out (which is rather quickly) on 32, I can just drip my way down without loosing too much off the top. Or, if I am recreationally vaping 18 mg and I decide I really need to feel it, than I can just fill it up with some high powered stuff. GeJ, I remain persistent on this tip, should be vaped at a high nic.

I hate to say this to all of my comrades out there, but this juice is my cigarette juice!

Classicly tragic that you find your "cigarette"... and it's slated to be discontinued.

Wrangler was my big "turnaround" juice that got me completely off of the combustibles (Camel Lights). There were other juices but when I was REALLY craving a cig I reached for Wrangler. Vaped so much of it early on that I was pretty burnt-out on it but have always kept some around "just in case". This has been a fun one to pick up again, after having had so many other NETs, and rediscover just how good a job GeJ really did with this. It will be sad to see it go...

I'm curious what ingredient is driving the need to discontinue it now.

Dude, you just SERIOUSLY freaked me out!

 

[Hulamoon]

Exactly - that's why I thought the cartoon was perfect when Victor responded What I really needed to add was a picture of the "last bottle of Wrangler juice" but I don't have photoshop. lol

UH-OH!

I don't remember which ingredient, but I do look forward to trying his new juice slated for release within a month or two.

Hehe, the image you planted in my mind of the battle for "the last bottle of Wrangler" has me grinning from ear to ear.

Who and why?

Bump for new GeJ juice!

Great review, Victor! Thanks!!!

Thanks Tez. That was my first attempt at a "pure review" post.

Thanks Tez. That was my first attempt at a "pure review" post.

Clearly you're a natural! Keep it up! This thread could use a little more of that (since that was the OP's original intent).

Now what's this I hear about a new tobacco from GoodeJuice...?

(that may be the creepiest looking emoticon I've ever used)

Thanks Tez. That was my first attempt at a "pure review" post.

It was a good one too!

 

[NoMoreTequila]

Who and why?

Oh, VVs dyslectic ditto of course! Edit: Figured it was intentional. Great review, btw Victor! Edit 2: WOW! # 1488 sure changed! EDIT 3: "Who and why" did you "Like" on # 1489? Freaking out all over a little bit!

I received Gollum today from HHV. I'm going to let it steep for a bit (as HHV tobaccos get better with age) but I had to try it right away. It's absolutely amazing!!!!

 

[NoMoreTequila]

Thank God, no more crickets!
