Picky tobacco vapor, looking for something new... (good sweet/musty balance)

[ipetbumblebees]

Frisco is a tobacco with hazelnut (to me) flavoring.
These are analog-tasting and not sweet at all.
They are made with tobacco extracts but are not "naturally extracted".

The 'musty' tobacco taste sounds like "Turkish" flavor. AVE's Kamel has a bit of that. Dekang Turkish Blend has a buttload of it.

I suggest going ahead with a purchase of Boba's Bounty because I've found it very useful for blending with sub-par tobacco juices to make them more palatable. Sounds like you have a few of those sitting around.

That sounds like a good idea. Plus I'm long overdue for placing an AVE order. I really wanna try the gorilla juice too. My only worry with AVE is how they'll perform in cartos...

I prefer thinner juice for cartos, so I add about 5% distilled water or vodka to the BB, sometimes a little more for a carto that's a few days old.

Try making up a small quantity of thinned juice in another bottle.

I don't know from musty and didn't see Alien Visions Blend 4 in this thread but tobacco flavors is all I vape and I love this stuff.

You know, I was lucky enough to get some BWB RY4 in a trade recently. Got it yesterday and of course I loaded up a carto immediately and started to vape it. I have to say, I stand corrected. I actually did notice just a hint of "musty". I think the difference was that the RY4 I just got had been steeping for quite a while. The stuff I ordered didn't have time to steep for even a week. I tore into and didn't let up until it was gone. It is quite a bit different after it has steeped for that long. That pungency (if that's even a word) seems to mellow out a good bit, and there does seem to be a bit of musty to it. Nice call bumblebees!

Yeah, pungent definitely works too. The first thing that came to my mind was musty; I guess I don't see that as a negative thing since I love the smell of old books

BWB HFN, Maple Tobacco and Casablanca are ones to consider...

Vaperite's RY4 is very rich... you may also like a few others...

Primevaping's Last Tango ;-) seriously... is a sweet, rich tobacco...

Vaporstation definitely has some of the best cigarette tobacco flavors...

I haven't tried this one yet, but I hear COV's Black and Tan is very rich and enjoyable...

...and like many others said... Boba's is terrific... My experience with cartos was that my cartos seemed to die quicker - but it was well worth it...

Lastly, I am very curious about epipemods juices... they look very interesting...

Thanks for the tip! I'll definitely keep that in my mind when I place my first AVE order.

Thanks for the compliment! It looks like all my years of sampling and grading craft beers is helping me to distinguish and pick out flavors in high quality e-liquids as well. Maybe sometime soon I'll be bold enough to start doing some liquid reviews...

Thanks for all the suggestions! I'm gonna place my BWB order today, and Casa and Maple Tobacco will most definitely be on it. Probably Honey Flue and Hazelnut as well. And I'm still considering a straight tobacco, like Virginia.

So, there wouldn't be any particular reason why you're promoting Last Tango, now, would there? Truly though, the way you describe it makes it sound similar to VR style tobacco (which I don't believe is possible). Is it comparable at all? Whenever I hear "richness" describing a liquid, all I can think about is Kentucky Premium, and proceed to...

Another choice that might fit the bill for you is one that I recently tried from ECBlendcalled Red Box. My first impression was your exact term "musty". I love it. Priced right and can be customized for nic and base (PG/VG).

 

[SKYYcamel]

My 2 favorites are Honey Flue Cured from LiquidXpress and OMFG from KalamazooVaporShop.

Have you tried Liberty Liquids Cubana from mypvshop.com?

I haven't; what does that taste like?

IMO - Vaperite and Want2Vape rules the tobaccos - extracted

That's what I've heard. I ordered some stuff from BWB (one of my go-to vendors), but my next sample is probably gonna be from Vaperite. Thanks!
