Nomad from www.ethervapes.com
The juice: Site description- "Nomad is a sweet but very rich and slightly nutty blend of Turkish tobaccos with some Virginias added to sweeten it up. While not a straight Turkish blend due to the Virginias added in the blend it still has a wonderful toasted flavor from the Oriental tobaccos that make for a wonderful Non-Aromatic blend and one of my personal favorites from our collection."
The Hardware: Mechanical mod topped by an IGO-S with 1ohm micro coil of 28ga Kanthal, wicked with CelluCotton rayon..
Ratings are from 1-5 depending on where a juice falls in an attributes spectrum. Only the last rating, "overall", is based on 5 being the best. (For sweetness 1 equals very dry and 5 equals very sweet. For tobacco impact 1 equals very mild tobacco and 5 equals very aggressive and/or complex.)
Sweetness: 2.5. With no added flavors, Nomad has the level of sweetness expected from a non-aromatic Turkish and Virginia blend. While Turkish tobaccos are fairly dry, Virginia tobacco contains more sugars giving a nice balance. Sometimes I get a dry blast when vaping this, but more often the nice, natural sweetness is present.
Tobacco Impact: 3. Pure tobacco flavor, just a touch on the mild side. A little grassy with a slight leafy bite on a slow exhale. Turkish adds a note I don't know how to describe, but it's a little heady. I don't get a nutty flavor note that's in the description, but toasty is noticed.
Vapability: 4. Easy to grab for, and flavor holds up well during long vaping sessions. No odd or off notes present. Excellent for a background vape when wanting tobacco that isn't demanding. Being filtered down to a 2.5 micron level with vacuum filtration allows long sessions before gunk starts to hinder the flavor.
Flavor Accuracy: 4.5. Easily recognized as a Turkish blend. Can be enjoyed as a mild, non-aromatic pipe, or even better as a quality cig vape. The camel in the picture on the site says it all.
Overall: 3.5. Ethervapes has a quality NET with Nomad. It's a great option for those new to NETs and worth checking out for fans of cig-style vapes or Turkish blends. It can be faulted for lacking the complexity or uniqueness required for seasoned NET vapers. Pleasant, well made, and enjoyable, but not a personal reorder.
