Vurley really is so well done the tobacco and vanilla balance perfectly into one. :p:)

Devil Dog is just amazing.:D:D A little smoother than Apache, I think due to the Burley base vs. oriental in Apache and a little less Latikia in DD. I'm finding enough differences that both are favorites.

I saved most of the A+ aros to try after I had sampled enough NETs to truly appreciate their authenticity and I'm glad I did.

Wow! - talk about instant and impressive cred! That's a pretty darn impressive synopsis there johni! Mr. M will be most gratified. :laugh:

CravinVapes Caramel tobacco. 70/30 18mg. This is a nice vape if you like sweet, candy type vapes. The description says organic rum pipe tobacco extract. I'm not sure what that is, it's a fairly nice, lightweight tobacco taste, but this one is all about the caramel. The tobacco is not in the forefront, the top notes are rich, gooey caramel. I've vaped about a ml of it and I feel like I've eaten a whole bag of caramels.

TH is decent, vapor is a bit light, flavor is spot on as described. A good vape but not a hardcore tobacco if that's what you're looking for.

Vaping the last drops on my (now) 7-month (to the day) old Vita Bella. Pure rapture!!!

And on another vape note...received my Grandpa's NightCap and Monkey juice from QnJ. GNP I find is vapeable after two weeks. Tastes like fireworks (sulfur) before then. And the Monkey juice actually smells like banana out of the jar (yes, glass jars with dropper caps for those who get chubbies over that kind of thing). QnJ is a classy outfit. Adele is sending some samples to try...showing up in a different package. He's calling them..."our new steeped tobaccos." Can't wait to see what that's about. Why there isn't more folks digging on QnJ is beyond me.

I found the Caramel to be the better of the two I sampled. It's definitely caramel.!! And yes, you have to search for the bacco.

It's all about, well, I dunno what the hell it's about! For me, it was probably about the lack of info on them, but when I got them, I, too, was surprised that they were not right up there with W2V in terms of accolades.

Yep, and once you jumped in, you got it right away. I can't say the same about GeJ when you presented them to me. It took 5 months but I got it then. Big time!!! :)

BTW..that 7-month old VB was the bottle I bougfht on your recommendation. Yes, it's been that long! And yes...his 30ml bottles dispense much better than his small bottles. I'm just wondering if it's frustrating or just adds to the charm :D

Bronze, the QNJ I've tried I agree are very good. Just won't work on my equipment. For anyone using an RBA, QNJ should be on the list to try.

I think part of the problem is QnJ's NET line is not that wide. They have three (what I describe as) raw NETS. That would be GNP, Habana Daydream, and Kuba Kuba. They have a few more but they are heavily doctored (RY4's, etc..). A lesson could be learned from how GeJ presents their NET line. They call it their House Brewed line and it is very organized and easily identifiable with nice descriptions leaving the inquisitive feeling that each offering is important. Just my take on GeJ's marketing approach. I find it effective.

Nick has one of the best organized websites out there. It's a a pain in the behind to have to scroll through several pages to find a vendor's NETs. Some make it very difficult and probably lose business because of it.

I have to say this because it really surprised me: QnJ did NOT screw up my JDS and most of you know that I am all about Joye attys! I have had virtually every other vendor mess up my attys to some degree, but for some reason, QnJ did not do it. I dunno, maybe I had less time in session or something, but even still W2V wrecked shop in under 5 inhales.

Agree John. Nick presents his NETS perfectly from a consumer's POV. It really makes a difference to newcomers not familiar with NETs.

The only QnJ that wrecked my atties was GNP. I dedicate now. None of the others have been a problem. Now, I did vape some Kuba from W2V recently and it is damage city!

To answer the question Bronze asked me about three days ago, I used to be "meh" on TPR's Burley and Candy... it had a sweetened-breakfast-cereal aspect that didn't thrill me, but it wasn't bad and was certainly vapeable.

In my last USA top-up order Andrea sent me a sample of B&C and it tastes different. It still has a candy aspect to it but is not as wheaty/grainy as it was before, and in my opinion is more long-term vapeable than it was.

Bronze, one of the things I love about TPR is the silky, fluffy, fragrant clouds they produce (as evidenced by the famous "banana fog" moment". In an RBA it is indecently good.

Thanks for the description Scarfy. I figured I was never going to get feedback. I'm still working on that Candied Cavendish you sent me. I'm still on the fence. I can't make up my mind yet. I'm going to just keep toking on it for awhile. It does have an appeal though.
