Finally found the New Thread button!

I bought a Hantech Novo here in Korea from a pop-up shop. Normally I'm a cigar smoker with the occasional cigarette for fun or as an allergy remedy, but Korean winters and recent changes in the law mean "smoking" at home is more appealing. Further I'm trying to lose weight, so a sugary vape makes a nice substitute for an evening snack.

Maybe it's because I started late in life or maybe a genetic quirk, but I've been smoking casually since I was 21, never more than two cigarettes a week and more typically one cigar every other month. Utterly hooked on espresso, but nicotine I can take or leave. Junk food...eh...

I do have a couple questions:
I have two tanks, one for tobacco flavor with nicotine, one for sweets without. Given my habits, how much nicotine would you recommend? Keep in mind cigars have a ton of nic, but that I typically only smoked half a stogie before putting it down.
Another: I have Leopard brand mixed nuts "Maroon" and OMG the smell sticks on everything! Do you know of a chocolate or nutty flavor where that is not a problem? This is a substitute for an evening Reese's or ChocoPie, so it needs a satisfying flavor.

FYI Veil brand tobacco flavoring, Leopard Maroon and Leopard Orchid (cherry--smell sticks around but only for about an hour, which is tolerable).

Welcome to the forum, congrats on switching to vaping.
Hope you find what you're looking for.
You may have to answer some of those questions for yourself as taste is subjective
and everyones tolerance to nic is different.

Basically you're a non-smoker so personally I would recommend no nic.
But that may not be what works for you.
Bottom line?
Enjoy your vape.

Thanks all! My sweets tank is in fact no nicotine, and the shop owner put "medium" nicotine into my tobacco flavor. What's weird is that the zero nicotine ones make me feel relaxed and focused as though they were high nicotine, an effect that doesn't seem any different from the one that actually has it.

None of you smoke cigars, eh? None of you know/enjoy that kick in the head?

Back to Raluten.com to get a case. Accessories here are so expensive compared to Japan...
