NET or ?

[Puff2K]

Are the Halo tobaccos NET? Or are they WTA (?..Forgot the acronym, sorry). Thanks. I'm just wondering.

I don't believe the Halo tobaccos are WTA (whole tobacco alkaloids) nor of them being NETs (naturally extracted tobacco flavors).

If you go to Halo's website, to a tobacco flavor, there are 4 boxes between the flavor description and the ordering section. If you click on the one that says "Premium Flavorings", this pops up...

All Halo e-liquid flavorings are delicately crafted using ingredients from the most respected flavor houses in the world. Halo develops complex blends of only the finest flavoring ingredients to ensure a vaping experience that can't be matched. Halo has also deepened its commitment to customer safety by not adding Diacetyl or Acetyl Propionyl in any of it's flavor blends. In addition, our e-liquid blends are routinely lab tested to ensure these chemicals are not present. Tobacco extracts or absolutes are also not included in any Halo blends, as these substances do not fall under the GRAS umbrella.

(bold added for emphasis)
(GRAS - generally regarded as safe)

I'll take this as a no to your questions. If I'm interpreting this wrong, I'm sure Rocking Randle or someone else will chime in.

As an aside, I have vaped Torque56 and Prime15 for the past 16 months. Along with Malibu and Belgian Cocoa, they are always in my permanent rotation, and I can't see myself without them.

Thank you, Dave! This indeed answers my question. I'll probably be reordering from Halo, glad to know there's none of that other chemical too.

Halo uses chemicals to simulate the flavor of tobacco rather than actually using tobacco.

And they do it better than anyone in the business...

this.

More from their site...

Our ingredients contain USP Grade Propylene Glycol and USP Grade Glycerin along with a proprietary blend of USP Grade Natural and Artificial flavorings. All ingredients are FEMA/GRAS approved food additives, and we use only the highest quality USP Grade Nicotine with a Certificate of Analysis. Our nicotine is tested and documented to be a minimum of 99% pure before our e-liquid is created in our US facility.

As I understand it, Halo uses Pharmaceutical grade, a step above the grade that many others use.

Captain jack and longhorn are the closest flavors to a NET in case you were wondering. Although i'd love a halo NET juice ;3 I know it will never happen though ;/

Halo is all about providing the safest e-liquid on the market. NET and WTA juice aren't as safe to vape as e-liquids which don't contain them...

Oh, I didn't know that. Hm.

I specifically avoid NET/WTA, although they would be enjoyable, just to stay away from the tobacco components that really make cigarettes the PITA to quit that they are.

This is also why I stay away from BT eCig products, because; you just know they are going to do everything in their power to make them more addictive.

That and, hello, BT, d'Uh...
