I've enjoyed a few NETs with fruit. GeJ Apple Cured is very good. Ahlusion Sweet Georgia Peach and Peachy Criminal are super-good. I suggested a burley/peach/lychee e-liquid to Clay. In my head, the combination is awesome. That's my current "dream" e-liquid of any kind.
Gamel (Not a Net of course) is fantastic. I preferred it fresh. I think steeping it for 2 years is a bit of overkill. I should perhaps vape it all up before it really gets old.
That's funny because I think AVE's Gamel tastes like piss, vinegar and funky river water...but I love it.
You just named 4 of my most favorite juices - Managua, Alcazar, 3 Crowns and H+ Yellow Mane. I am looking forward to you trying CI Cigar and Coffee Infused Cigar. I think I am as sure you will like them as I am sure I will like them.
I've waited 12 days and it still hasn't arrived. I really hope Big Spirit and Mango Vanilla are waiting for me in the mail tomorrow. To save costs I went with Clay's much more economical first class international delivery and I guess that in turn comes with a trade-off - longer wait times. I don't mind longer wait times except for the fact that I start to get jittery about it having been lost in the mailing system or confiscated (which has only ever happened once).
I can't wait to try Big Spirit.

I wouldn't be too certain that Gamel is not a natural tobacco base, and it's not TA. I think this is some strange process they make down in India (don't ask why). The biggest "tell(s)" that makes me convinced that there is a natural tobacco in there (though it doesn't exactly taste like it to me) is that 1) It doesn't come in zero mg. Ben has stated that his tobaccos can't come in zero mg (he's said this every since they first came out) because he can't get the liquids to register at zero, even without adding nic, and we all know that most NETs can't come in true zero mg because the extraction of the leaves bring about small percentages of nic (but ironically enough, and likely due to the tiny portions used, this is not the case with TA). 2) My wife smelled the bottle, not knowing what the "flavor" was supposed to be, and said THAT smells like tobacco (just about blew my mind!). 3) The taste of it is is clearly from some type of fermented organic material, not just "some" flavoring.
GeJ House blend is a synthetic. My experience with synthetic tobaccos is that once the flavors have melded after a little steeping, they stay the way they are for a long time---a year at the very least, but often 2-3 years. (I've been vaping going on three years, so the juices I've purchased or made aren't older than that.)
No, my guess is that you just don't like GeJ House Blend at any age (of the juice, not you...).

Look on the bright side, your juices will be steeped and ready to vape.
I do this with Acid Blondie's and Deluxe Kuba-Kuba's. The Kuba taste is right on while the Blondie is very close. I get 60 mls of concentrate from half a cigar.
The VB was very good after a couple of months but the House Blend, even after a long steep, had a very hard grassy flavor that was not to my liking. W2V's Rock Star was like that. I came back to the RS after 5 months and it tasted like beer. Not in a Beck's Dark way but a Miller Lite taste.
On the synchronicity front, After reading the last few pages of posts to this thread, I was about to post my "Yellow Snow" mix in the Recipe sub-forum. Guess I'll go and do that now.

My VB is 6-1/2 months old and is awesome. You haven't let yours steep long enough.
Ooh, ooh, ooh! Jerms!!! You're going to like this one. H1N1 from Nicoticket just got here. It's good stuff; between HHV and Plume Room. No particular flavor from them, just their style.
H1N1 is sweet. I'm guessing a cold maceration of a Cavendish blend. The tobacco isn't large font, but it's there. I detect a bit of cinnamon. I think. Some kind of spice, not the tobacco. Also a tiny bit of banana. It's not bold but not light. I'm pretty excited to see what some age does to this stuff. As of right now I don't see why I won't reorder it.
I was also sent a beta bottle of Orange Mango H1N1. It's the same tobacco base but with, you guessed it, orange and mango. The flavors kind of clash in this liquid but for some reason it works. I'm looking forward to some age on this, too.
Speaking of arti-bacco from GeJ, Commercial Tobacco from them is hands down the best artificial tobacco liquid I've had.

Thanks for the heads up. They mentioned a slight "nuttiness" in their description and I lost interest But it doesn't sound like it came off nutty to you, so I might take another look at it in the near future.
That's good news! I was going to add H1N1 just because I plan on ordering from them anyways. Looks like I can also look forward to their NET too.

That's good, because the description says peanuts. I don't like nuts or nuttiness
Thanks for quoting that. I had completely forgot that it was a NET/TA hybrid. It's really unique. I knew I tasted cinnamon.
I'm going to have Luigi mix me up a mess of NET's with different fruit flavors (the standard fare: peach, cherry, blueberry, etc.) and see what shakes loose. What ones do you think would marry up well with fruit flavors: Patriot? Perique? Acadian Gold? Suggestions and input most welcome.
Patriot and blueberry or peach sound really good. So does Perique and peach.
