Jefsview,

Chimps describes it well. I would also say it has a slightly spicy flavour, fairly sweet like Dragon's Fire. I actually think it tastes a bit like Dragon's Fire or Shadow only bolder in its flavour. Pirates Booty is one of my favourite NETS from all vendors.

I am surprised Pirate's Booty is described as Carribean. i can kind of see that but there is definitely none of the what would traditionally be considered Carribean. No pineapple or coconut. I don't like coconut in juices and not fond of pineapple either but this is one of my favorite juices.

If you are sitting on the fence about PB I would say get off it and make sure you fall head deep in a well of Pirates Booty. My only regret with Pirates Booty was not ordering a full size bottle.

Let us know your thoughts if you do order it, after you have tried it.

I was hopelessly hooked on Pirate's Booty for quite awhile. It was nearly identical to the second iteration of Gandalf. Then the batch ran out and a new extraction was made (somewhere around Xmas). It was not the same. It became grassier and lost its charm for me. I moved on to Dragon's Fire which is also near-identical to Gandy 2 and PB1. Adam just made a new batch of DF and it is very close to the previous version.

So, why is that? They don't take notes on what they do, or what? I don't think I'd be very happy finding something I loved, only to discover that they're not capable of following their own recipe the next time.

Jerms I put in an order for their 10 X 5 ml sampler pack. Its good value and a very economic way of trying their tobaccos and others. I haven't tried them yet obviously as they have not arrived but Vapor station fans will swear by them.

They have a new tobacco called Dover but it must have sold out because it's not showing in the list. Word is it is also a very good tobacco.

As you may well know, Vapor station tobaccos are not NETS (which is why I think you are calling them arti-baccos). I am not sure what 'artibacco' means.

Anybody have recommendations for VaporStation's arti-baccos? I can pick two. Considering Tampa, Phoenix, Tennessee, and Texas.

Dover is one I want to try but yeah, not available now. I'm picking 2 because they offer 2 free bottles for new customers. I'm leaning towards Tampa and Tennessee like CW is, but tempted to get Texas instead of Tennesse since I haven't had a Turkish synthetic tobacco yet.

Jerms, for a Turkish synthetic I really liked Halo's Turkish. :)

Not me :( I didn't get much from it when I tried it, but plan to give it another run. Plan on picking up there tobacco sampler when they offer the next free 10ml deal. Has a bunch of ones I like and Turkish is in it too. Mainly I need another Halo tin lol.

Anyway, I'm now completely spoiled by the Kanger horizontal bottom-coil cartos. At $1.60 each shipped for standard length LRs (2.0 ohms) or XL SRs (2.7 ohms), and such a snap to convert to atties (literally takes 20 seconds), they're a no-brainer. In addition, the Kanger atty-converts clean up easily with a vodka soak and seem unharmed by dry burning, which I find to be a helpful ritual with coil-gunking NETs.
I tried using the beauty ring and base from my Protank to make a dripper -I have a rubber tip from a leaking SmokTech 5ml Dual Coil Cartomizer that fits nice after adding a round of rubber tape - not loose with a nice friction fit. The ring and tip fits one of my replacement coil assemblies for my Kanger T-3 as well so I am using that now to drip some QNJ RY4 tobacco.

The QNJ RY4 has hints of sweetness but is only complementary to the tobacco taste and does not overwhelm - this DIY dripper will fog up the room!

Hey guys...I'm 2 months into vaping, and I'm intrigued by the NETs, particularly Goodejuice and Ahlusions (if I can get on to place an order!). I've just learned that the ideal way to experience them is dripping--but I can't quite get the hang of that. I really like (gulp) ...clearomizers. Can I use them with NETs? If so, is bottom coil like T3 better than the Ce4/5? Thanks for your patience with me...this thread is amazingly informative.
Also is HHV considered NET "enough" to make it bad in a clearo?

Ahlusion's really not that hard to order from, I'd placed my second order from then this month just this morning. Best time to check is shortly after they open at 8am ET. GoodeJuice can be ordered from anytime.

Any juice delivery system you currently use will be fine with NETs. Some, not all, can gunk up coils quicker than non-NETs, so you may have to clean/dry burn more often.

I've never used a ce4 or 5, but I do like the bottom-coil eVod on the go.

MCP15, HHV works splendidly in any delivery device. Personally I find CE5s with mesh cores to work better than the CE4s with wicks. I ultimately had a bad experience with the T3s but other folks love them so don't go by me.

Welcome and prepare to have your wallet vacuumed. :)

Thanks, Jerms...you (and MrMann) and several others were the ones that first interested me in the NETs, got me looking, and then I saw a GeJ post about dripping being best. Maybe it is, but thankfully for me, I can experience them with clearos.

I think dripping is the best with any juice.. for me. The best JDS for anybody is the one they like the best, not what others say they should use. The NETs that are dirtier are harder on all systems.

GeJ, Ahlusion, MOV, HHV, and many others work great on just about anything. If you need any recommendations this is a good thread to guide you if you know what you are looking for, feel free to ask. Post impressions of the NETs you try to here if you feel inclined. Hope you find some you dig!

They make clearos with ss mesh? Interesting. I'm thinking of building an eVod head with ss mesh.

What are all you hockey tragics vaping for game 3?

I've got my new AGR tank with Puros, and believe it or not, a Vivi Nova filled with AIV Zombie Apocalypse :shock:

Mmmm Zombie. My favorite strawberry juice. That'll probably change when I receive Strawberry Vanilla Cake from Ahlusion.

I don't like hockey, too much skating in between the fights. I'd rather watch boxing, very little skating involved.

Yeah, these. 2.42 each with free shipping. Can't beat 'em.

You will no doubt be pleased to note that they "suck 400 times". :lol:

Do you know of another Turkish blend similar to this? (It's not listed on the website).

"Your Name Turkish" contest beta NET from Quick nic Juice - Quality E-liquid made in the U.S.A. Better your habit... One drop at a time . Vaped in an IGO-S at 1.5 watts on a KTS Storm mechanical.

Sweetness: 2. A mild sweetness comes through that feels like it just from the tobacco. Dry enough to feel like an authentic, straight tobacco vape, yet enough sweetness that makes me think it would work for people who shy away from dry tobacco vapes.

Tobacco Impact (1 being extremely mild and 5 being very aggressive and/or complex: 4. Straight tobacco flavor. I wouldn't call it aggressive, but it's on the stronger end of medium to me. Fairly complex and very flavorful tobacco tones. Has a little leafy bit and sort of a spicy kick to it. I'm impressed on how strong and pure the tobacco comes through without being an aggressive vape.

Vapability (1 being best for short sessions on occasion, 5 being an anytime, anywhere vape) 4.5. I vaped it a little last night and most of the day today. Tobaccos in the medium range like this are some of my favorite. Sweet and mild baccos start getting muted after a little bit and the super aggressive ones are usually only enjoyable for short sessions for me. This one keeps it's flavor and doesn't get tiring. It's also a great anytime vape because all I will need is to be in the mood for tobacco, which is most of the time. It's a great first vape of the morning because it has some bite but doesn't kick too hard.

Flavor Accuracy: No rating since it's not being sold a specific kind of vape yet. I think it could pass as a pipe vape, but personally feels like a cigarette vape. It's a lot like a Camel, which contains Turkish and Virginia tobaccos, but is a lot more enjoyable than a commercial ciggy. The cig feel is what I think makes it such an anytime vape for me. Turkish may have even beaten Wrangler Light for me in the cig category of the NETty awards.

Overall: 4.5. This is such a well done Turkish NET on many levels. Authentic tobacco, well balanced, and highly vapable. Turkish has been under-represented in NETs and I'm glad more are being released. I think it's harder to make a really good straight tobacco NET than a flavored one, so I love it when a vendor pulls it off. Fantastic NET that I think will work very well for many tobacco fans.

Can suck 400 times when filled with oil. Very impressive, few devices provide so much suckage. Gotta love FastTech's translations.

Do you know of another Turkish blend similar to this? (It's not listed on the website).

They juice is a beta NET that was provided in a contest, not sure when it will be available to order, but it will be. Sahara Blend from Ahlusion and Wild Turkey from GoodeJuice are a couple highly regarded Turkish NETs available now.
