Pirate's Drunken Sweet Tooth (PDST) by River Bottom Fog Sauce (RBFS) available online at www.vapingwatch.com
The juice: An extract of an aromatic pipe tobacco that consists of a mixture of Virginia and Burley flavored with maple and rum.
The Hardware: Mechanical mod topped by an Ehpro Atomic with 1ohm micro coil of 28ga Kanthal, wicked with Koh Gen Do cotton.
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: 3. The sweetest of the current RBFS line. It's a silky smooth, almost creamy sweetness that seems to stick a little after the exhale leaving a nice maple feel on the tongue. I like the level a lot, it's not too sweet or dessert tobacco.
Tobacco Impact: 2. It's a mild tobacco but it's not hidden. The Virginia seems to play a big role. I love the taste of well represented Virginia tobacco and it shines here. It reminds me of Pendragon from MountainOakVapors in that at first it may be hard to spot, but once it clicked it just grabbed me with a wonderfully leafy bite. Once the tobacco popped this NET grabbed me in a big way. It's not complex or strong tobacco, no smoky or earthy notes, just extremely tasty and a perfect compliment to the flavors.
Vapability: 5. PDST is just plain addicting. I've vaped almost 10ml since yesterday afternoon and I normally don't vape nearly that amount. I've had a nic buzz all day because I just want to vape it non-stop. What's amazing is nothing is getting muted or tiring, the flavor is popping with every pull. That leafy bite on the exhale just kills me, and the flavorings that the tobacco are cased with went from OK to phenomenal.
Flavor Accuracy: 4. I'm not a fan of rum. Luckily, whatever is used to case this tobacco with rum flavoring doesn't taste like rum at all to me. The maple is pretty far from the pancake type funky "maple" often found in maple vapes. It's also not the unique sugar maple flavor of Ahlusion's fantastic Maple Burley. It is maple, just a pleasantly sweet and mild version. These flavorings don't offer strong notes, just an overall delicious flavor to compliment the tobacco.
Overall: 5. I cannot believe how much my view of this NET has changed. I expected it to be a flavor that wouldn't appeal to me and at first it didn't. After an hour I started kind of liking it. From there my appreciation kept growing until I finally have to admit, I just love this juice. I love everything about it. This is the biggest transition from 'meh' to amazing I've had in a vape. It has mass appeal, a great option for those new to NET or fans of flavored tobacco vapes. I think many veteran tobacco vapers may dismiss it at first like I did as just being an OK juice, but I urge those to really give it a chance to see if it'll grow on them.
