No nicotine, but harsh cig flavor possible?

[fiveshot_leo]

does anyone know if it is possible to make 0 nicotine e-liquid that tastes very strong like... Marlboro red that is unfiltered? So very strong flavor + very harsh throat hit... If so, could anyone tell me what I need to get and recipe for it?

I searched for this, and it seems nothing I've tried so far does it... Arg.. i don't want to have any nicotine. But I miss the flavor and throat hit so much.

Thank you!

This highlights subjectiveness. I always thought reds with the filters torn off were flavorless and airy.

Harsh, FA's Burley fits. I usually mix it with some FA Shade to give it some body. Add some vanilla to give it a tingle.

I think our tastes are too different for any of my tobacco recipes to work for you, but with those 2 FA flavors, you'd probably get close to something you'd like.

Pure Grain Alchohol... Everclear or the like....

Take a look and search for recipes - I'm sure that you will find something that you like - just replace the nicotine part with PG (Propylene Glycol) or Glycerin - both should be USP rated.

Welcome to the addiction!

Ah, i just looked into it.. and it seems that it is illegal in California... It also states that 151 Everclear is legal in California, yet online everyone says they can't find it in California.. are there any other alternatives? Thank you.

You said you've tried vodka, which is generally the next best thing. You can try Bacardi 151 which is sold in all 50 states if you're still interested.

I don't think there is currently any available means to get a true throat hit with 0 nicotine.
I've tried PGA, Menthol, pepper, and lots of other stuff. There is a lot of good information on the forums, and a lot of misinformation.

I don't know any recipes but as far as eliquid, johnson creeks zero nic smoke juices may just do the trick... I usually use 36mg elsewhere and currently using JC's redoak 18mg and it is killing my throat, as far as throat hit goes and tobacco taste.. very strong cig base in all their juices so far and I am surely feeling like I'm smoking real cigarettes for the first time since I started vaping, little hard to get use to after using all the other supplier juices lol but, if you want that harsh cigarette taste and throat hit than you may want to try theirs if all else fails..

It's pure grain alcohol. In Kentucky we can get the 190 proof Everclear. I've used it to increase throat hit, and it seems to work. Some people say the citrus juice (lemon) works. I've seen that some use vinegar, but that sounds so wrong. But, who knows?

if its a cig your trying to replicate, its just not going to happen IMO. i've tryed DIY and premade. over 4 months of looking. then i found thats not what vaping is to me. i have a ton of cig flavors just sitting there going bad...
