Ok, so Im looking at goodjuice, vaperite, and want2vape among others and I would like to get some suggessions.
Heres what I DONT want: Smokey, spicey, grassy, overly musty, anise, caramel, ect. No cigar or pipe tobaccos unless maybe a sweet flue cured virgina with a tad of honey.
What I Do want: Sweet, mild, ciggy type tobacco that doesnt taste like peanuts or 555.

Im more than brain dead when it comes to tobacco types or their various characteristics, so....ya

Oh, and Im also open to non extracted such as some of the interesting looking ones from want2vape like oasis and last tango.

Any thoughts? Thanks!

I've sampled a few Vaperite flavors, and extracted one tobacco myself. I'm not sure anything I've had fits your bill, but I can tell you I plan on ordering more of the House Cured Tobacco. The flavor was hard to describe, very mellow with a taste that reminded me of bannana. I try to taste things a few times, vape a flavor a few times one day, then put it away for at least a few days before trying it again. I can tell you that flavor was the first of the little samplers I finished.

I can also say you most likely don't want the Perique, or Cuban they have, pipe and cigar. I didn't care for the RY4 (which I believe was not an extract) it simply tasted like a freshly opened pack of smokes and not in a way I liked. I also have a Virginia Flue cured sampler, but I haven't made a final opinion of that, although I'm leaning toward not liking it.

I have tried HHV shadowfax and a couple others that I didnt care for but I have the rest of the line coming, so Ill see. I really like the underlying tobacco base flavor in shadowfax, but like I told someone else, I also tasted cream cheese and Ive always hated cream cheese and most milk products.

I also tried ahlusion house blend and unfortunetely I didnt care for that either. I am wondering what their desperado, smooth criminal, and vecchio blend taste like though. I have an order on the way but its all non tobaccos.

Maybe some of you that know tobacco can clear this up for me, what the difference between straight virgina, and flue cured? Is the flue cured the one that gives it that sweet flavor or is that only if its also honey flue cured?

Wild Turkey and/or Acadian Gold from the Goodejuice House Brewed line.

I wonder if men and women (some of them! not trying to be sexist) rate mild and sweet by different measures. Is this what you would consider a "feminine" tobacco by male standards or female? Odd question I know...

I will be trying them (natural and synthetic) and maybe you can help, along with those what do you think of organic tobacco, wrangler light, and vita bella?

Its a synthetic, but have you any thought of analog mild from extremevaping & want2vape?

I didn't say WT and AC were "feminine", just that they are ciggy types. I haven't tried Wrangler yet, but I'm told it has cocoa notes. Organic has more of a pipe tobacco taste to me, and it's sort of earthy and musky. Vita Bella is along the lines of Shadowfax, but the tobacco is much more pronounced, bolder, stronger. None of those latter three are ciggy types.


edit: well, Wrangler might be a "ciggy type", like I said, I haven't tried it.

Oh, I know you didnt say they were "feminine", but that is what Im looking for for lack of better wording.

Deal Maker is, to me, House Blend with cocoa. Vecchio Blend is straight up vanilla bean. If you get Vecchio Blend, get it with the strong tobacco option. The light tobacco option is no tobacco (to my taste buds at least).

Is the vanilla a true vanilla or does it have butter qualities? I love vanilla but hate butter flavor... pucky!! Thanks.

Well, if someone asked me for feminine type tobaccos, I'd probably have to recommend HHV's Dragon's Fire, Shadowfax, and Pirate's Booty, but you already said you don't care for Shadowfax. All three of those are pretty "light weight" as far as tobacco flavor. All the GeJ and W2V juices are pretty "manly". :)

The spolier was just the creamy cheese type top note I got from shadowfax, but the underlying tobacco flavor was elegant and lovely I must admit, so Im going to see if I can get a similar flavor with different top notes from their other flavors.

I havent tried vermillion river, what flavor profile does kentuky tobacco have?

I think it's a sweet blend of maple, vanilla, and natural tobacco among other things. A very complex and strong flavor that IMO needs steeping. Come to think of it, it's not what I would call a "safe" choice. You can order a free sample and just pay for shipping, so you really don't have much to lose if you want to try it. The Kentucky Banana Blend is really tasty as well, if you like banana bread.

My safest picks for you would be HHV's Gandalf, Pirate's Booty, and Serendipity.

Thank you for your input. Those from HHV are in transit...

Vaping has helped me cut back on smoking but I really feel I really need a tobacco to let go, and Im infuriatingly picky:(
