I just ordered 2 doublers from TV. Apple Pie, and tobacco. The apple Pie is delicious. The tobacco one is just terrible. It's really dark brown, but it smells and tastes like nothing, nothign at all. Even when I drip it straight from the doubler bottle. 0 flavor. What a waste this one is. I've used 6 drops and the rest will go to the trash unless I can return it and swap for another flavor.

:nah:

Yeah, don't toss it - some people use it as a base.

I have to say that I agree with you though - I don't get any flavor from it and yes, I let it "age". ;)

This is pretty damn expensive as a base. I know it's a good deal for the 15 bucks but it's supposed to be flavored for that price. I could have just gone out and bought a gallon of PG. I feel like something needs to be done about this and will contact TV. I'm really happy with the other flavor but selling this as tobacco flavor is just not right.

Tasty Vapor help line ... no good. "unfortunately, our policy... "... yeah yeah. whatever. They could have at least been honest and said it has no flavor at all and tastes like unflavored PG. That's too bad too, I liked their selection of flavors. I think I'll hit up some of the flavoring sites and buy some flavoring for this 15 dollar bottle of piss.

I guess everyone's taste buds are different. Because I love the taste of TV's Tobacco.

Well I know there's something up with it because when I watched big jim (i think that's his name) review of it on youtube, he was talking about how strong the smell was, and how he could smell it even in the mailbox before opening it. This is DEFINITELY not the case. I can put my nose right up to it and not smell a thing. It's not me, my sense of smell is very good and the apple pie from TV is actually one of the tastiest best smelling liquids I've ever had. This liquid is like water. It has NO SMELL, NO FLAVOR, and NO REFUNDS.

Keep in mind, the stuff that Big Jim got was BEFORE we were doing our maceration for a month. His stuff was only aged one week. And he tastes everything just fine. The stuff you got Bastage, had been aged one month, was dark, rich and with an all PG Doubler of Tobacco, this means you also got around 70% of the macerations, so I KNOW your tastebuds must be "off".

But if you really need us to be your "bad guy", cool.

And I know better than anybody, mixing these liquids, there are days when the aroma of certain flavorings are overpowering and a few days later, I swear, I can't smell anything. Tastebuds/sense of smell is a quirky thing. And smoking for years, I can tell you FIRST HAND how badly I've screwed up my sense of smell, which is thankfully, returning over time, but the damage has been done.

I can't speak to the exact product you have because, well... I don't have it in front of me. But I can say that I've received about 6 bottles of Tobacco and Tobacco/Menthol Doubler from TV over the past 3-4 months (2 more bottles just this past Friday). All have had plenty of flavor.

Like others have suggested here: Give it a few days to "cure". You'd be surprised what a few days in a dark cool place can do with newly-made liquids.

Try it and see. :)

Been off analog for 3 weeks. I can taste the ecig RY4, Ecig Tobacco, and the WYS French Pipe just fine.

My taste buds and sense of smell at three weeks off of analogs were completely "dead". Give it a week or two ~ maybe it will be different for you then. If not, someone will buy it from you I'm sure. :D:D:D
