GT, how would you compare GoodEJuice Apple Cured to HHV Caramel Apple tobacco? I am contemplating a GEJ order and that is one that keeps going in and out of my cart. I've got CAT and juice W h o r e Double Apple Hookah already, and I'm thinking more apple might be overkill.

Caramel Apple is darker, a bit less true apple flavor than Apple Cured, and of course, there's caramel. Apple Cured is bright, green apple, very tart, a little sweet. They're pretty different, I could vape either, probably prefer the apple cured. Neither are overly tobacco-y.

I can't speak for the non tobacco items, but you've nailed the tobaccos. :) Also you may want to go to the classies and see if someone might trade you a small amount of Vapensteins London and Paris for tobaccos to sample those too.

I am going to order the W2V sampler tomorrow. here is what I am thinking. open to suggestions. Looking for earthy type stuff and a try of some of the non tobacco stuff
Alcazar
Blondie
Cold Infusion
Red Pirate
Tabak Especial
Campfire Coffee
RY4
Wild Cherry
Peach
Creamy Espresso

Personally, I prefer Rockstar to RY4. Honestly nothing that I've tried that wasn't on their Premium Tobacco or Vapenstein Blend list compares to them, but YMMV. The juices in those two categories are in a class of their own. I haven't tried Campfire Coffee, Peach, or Creamy Espresso.

Tezcat, I am a Rock Star fan too although I have never tried their name RY4. It's a brighter, lighter RY4 than some others (if you follow the RY4 Roundup thread, Rockstar is "classic/Chinese" in flavor profile). Red Pirate is fabulous and very tasty.

Campfire Coffee and Creamy Espresso are simply fabulous. The difference to my palate is this:

Creamy Espresso is just that... a cup of serious espresso coffee in one of those tiny cups.
Campfire Coffee tastes like the smell of freshly ground coffee beans, rather than a beverage. Very unsweet, to the extent that I suspect there might be a base of tobacco in it. This is extra nice in tanks and the vapor smells gorgeous.

GT thanks for the input. I might pass since two apple-baccos is enough for me at the moment.

Yeah, I got both Rockstar and RY4 back when I got the sampler, and in side-by-side comparison, I preferred the Rockstar.

I've found my favorite tobacco vapes and a pretty darn good chocolate vape (Heather's Tuscan Cocoa) but am still searching for a really good coffee vape. W2V Creamy Espresso was clearly real coffee to me but unfortunately tasted more like "Espresso Du Folgers" than a fine espresso. It does remain the closest I've found to what I want, but the search continues...

Vic, you have to try Campfire Coffee. Even talking about it makes me hyper as you can see;) Hint of bitterness lurking in there too.

I lust received my samples from W2V today. The 10 item sampler, all but Mountain Brew and Creamy Expresso were tobacco flavors. I almost dripped myself into a stupor... tabak and cold infusion, yumyum. I also got a 30ml of Louisville and London. Was I supposed to steep these Vapenstein blends because I dripped the louisville but as soon as I tried the London, it was "omg, I have to fill a carto/tank now!"

I'm looking forward to my ahlusion bluegrass burley but I'm beginning to think I should've picked DD if it's similar to London.

Glad you enjoyed your fine W2V and Vapenstein house NETs (I truly do enjoy them all and can highly recommend Vapenstein Managua as well, get it while you still can). The other manufacturer that compares with them with regard to intensity of flavor profile is Ahlusion with their Devil Dog and Blue Grass Burley house NETs. You may find Quick Nic enjoyable as well, I certainly do, especially their Fired In Georgia and Grandpa's Nightcap house NETs.

I haven't tried it, but if you want a marriage of NET tobacco and coffee, Ahlusion's JG Blend sounds promising.

Tabac Especial is the best I've found in a coffee-tobacco marriage. Still looking for that great standalone coffee vape so I can add coffee to some tobaccos (like I do with Heather's Tuscan Cocoa).

Thanks, I may indeed add some to my next W2V order. Almost added it to my most recent order but I chose to try their Creamy Espresso over the Campfire Coffee as the espresso description sounded more like what I imagine wanting. I was hoping it would taste more like the coffee note from Tabak Especial as a standalone flavor...

I can vouch for the JG Blend. Be sure to get the dark roast. I don't do coffee black, so ordered it with a bit of sweetener.

Another one to try is TPR Ultimate Expresso. I'm letting it steep a while, so don't have much to say at the moment. Out of the mailbox it was a little too complex (confusing?).
