Vita Bella IN DA HOUSE.
How does it smell? How does it taste? How close was my review? LOL
Vendor: GoodeJuice
Liquid: Vita Bella
Vendor Description: Vita Bella is a tobacco flavored treat that will whisk you away to another place. Made from Natural tobacco, it's unique taste is slightly sweet with a full, rich tobacco flavor that is exclusive to Goodejuice. If you only had to pick one flavor for the rest of your life, consider Vita Bella. It was designed to be so. This flavor is only available in a 50/50 PG/VG mix due to the extraction process. Also, only available in 6mg nicotine or higher.
Thoughts: Ever since the first time I tried this juice I have been enthralled with it. It is probably the most unique and hard to peg juice of GeJ's House Brewed Line. Those that are tobacco fans, but want a little more variety than the standard faire, would be well advised to add this to their stash.
Review: This is one of those juices where the flavor profile is a very evasive and mysterious--in the vendor description as well as in the actual taste. Yes, this is an extracted tobacco, but what particular leaves and region is unknown. The actual tobacco, whatever it is, is used more as a base to escort the additional flavorings. The base itself is rather mild and does not have much of forward presence; however, it's ability to mingle with the other flavors and exchange profiles is what makes this juice so wondrous. FYI, the tobacco is definitely there if you know what you are looking for, but it isn't going to jump out at you.
Most extracted tobaccos will have some type of vegetal quality, woodiness, earthiness, bite and or spice. Vita Bella only has a subtle earthiness and spice that is coming from the tobacco--the spice is more of a lingering note upon exhale and afterwards, whereas the earthiness is present throughout. The predominant flavors are slightly sweet, velvety and as elusive as any of the hard to describe juices that I have ever had. The sweetness is not remotely close to cloying, but it does present itself as in the sweet(er) juice category of extracted tobaccos. I want to say possibly vanilla, but only in the very broadest of senses--it has a creaminess relative to vanilla more than the taste itself. I am not saying this is a vanilla tobacco per se, but that is about as close to a comparison as I can give--even that is a stretch. That particular flavor that I am trying desperately to pinpoint possibly has a touch of almond milk-like flair with a subtle hint of a red delicious apple skin. (I am really reaching! LOL) Oh yeah, that reminds me, the color of the juice is very much like alizarin crimson, or like that of a transparent red delicious apple, but please don't expect to taste apple here.
My gawd, this juice is smooth beyond smooth. It is not a bold in-your-face juice at all, but is has such a coy character that to vape it is to chase it. I have an 18mg bottle that doesn't offer much in the way of hit, but while I vape it, TH is the furthest thing from my mind. So if you are a tobacco fan and would like to add some mystery to your line-up, give Vita Bella a shot. This is a staple in my stash!
p.s. Approximately two weeks aged juice for the review.
