I tried their black cherry, balkan, and mango vanilla. This is my very first time trying out tobacco extracted juices, so take note. i called for their recommended suggested for vg/pg at 30/70 and nic @ 12mg. Great throat hit. a little buzzy for my new rda and amount of vapor i vape, and will opt for 40/60 @ 6mg in the future. This comes from a person who prefers very slight throat hit (i just havent found any liquid or diy combo that gives the same exact throat hit as a filtered cig or cigar), and lots of vapor.

the black cherry from their pipe tobacco selection is my fav among balkan and mango vanilla. very exquisite. as per their own black cherry product page: "The cherry on this is subtle and ghostly - perfect. Cherry on the inhale, tobacco and honey (almost like backwoods, except more like a lighter Virginia) on exhale. All of this combined makes me feel like I'm smoking a flavored cigarette again."


balkan: tastes like a dog soaked in diesel fuel. almost like my old pair of ballroom shoes / leathery. not bad.. borderline acquired. hoping some age and steeping will set it straight for me.


mango vanilla: where is the mango or vanilla??? i wanted this to be the one i would fall back onto if I didn't like the latter two. but it's the one i prefer the least. i'll post a review for it on their website if some more steeping helps.

I can't find the 'edit' button, so I'll give you a follow-up post about the balkan after about a week and two days since opening:

The flavors I mentioned are still there, but there are also more dried virginia-like flavors that're become more noticed. I'm starting to enjoying this one now. It's like, more pieces of a puzzle are being found and put together to depict a complete picture.

I also tried mixing it with a bit of plain mango e-juice from Starbuzz, and it's quite nice. The Balkan is still quite nice on its own. It's a very complex vape that I still feel I am not describing the best I can, but I'll come back when I can better describe it. Some kind of... subtle musk is definitely there on the exhale.

As for the mango vanilla, I have not got around to trying it again since on a fresh wick, but I will post back here when/if I do.

The Black Cherry is also aging along nicely. When I first got it, I found that if I chain-vaped it, I would start to get some powdery dryness. But now, I can chain vape without so much of that. Another thing that I'm noticing is that the tobacco-woodsiness is becoming more apparent than the cherry such that if I french inhale from the mouth to the nose (I'm a mouth dragger), I no longer sense the cherry as much, but I sense it on the exhale. Quite nice.
