Please help us find this flavor

Will do....And if they were trying to match the SB#5 in creating the toasted toffee..They were waaay off the mark lol..I taste no nuttiness/555 in the SB#5

Im vaping some double flavored Dunhill from MyFreedomSmokes... It's really pretty good... I hate to give reviews because I know my taste buds are still shot...My hubby says its got some sweetness to it...I barely taste sweet and I taste a sliiight under current of a spiceiness( none of the sweet pipe tobacco flav that so many of the tobacco flavs have)... Might be a pretty good base for some cinnamon..I do know I like it on its own...

I might have to give the Dunhill a try. Right now, I'm vaping on some Turkish Blend from TrueVapor that I've had sitting around for a week now. Not bad. Definitely cig-like.

Trying to ration my Special Blend. My collection of liquids have their own special compartment in the fridge. I hope they really do last two years. The SB5 is going to get stetched out as long as possible.

I was looking at WidowsBeadWork. Monique has stuff I've been looking for at reasonable prices, like a Purple PCC. My wife wanted one of those, but I could only find them in black or blue a while back. I think I'll surprise her. I need some Passthrough Batts anyway. This one is acting funny.

In a week, I might try Innovapor's EcoPure Rich Variety to see if it comes close to Special Blend. I want to give Widow's Marlboro a shot first. $15 for 15ml... Hmm...

Okay - the closest thing to Jane's Blend #5 is VapeApe's 36mg 555.

That's all I'm gonna say.

I got the WidowsBeadWork Marlboro today! I'll let you know what I think in a little bit.

UPDATE:

Okay, I ordered a 50ml bottle of the ExHigh. I should've gone with lower, but I figured I'd vape less if I get a higher strength. I normally do vape less that way. She included a mini travel bottle with it. Got it in three days. Now for the review.

It IS close enough for me. It's not exactly like the prefilled carts or the Special Blend #5. It smells and tastes sweeter than the prefilled carts. It's definitely not SB#5 and not quite Apple Jacks, but the price is right for what it is.

The very first vape I pulled from it was nothing like SB#5 and had a hint of the other nutty Marlboros I've tried, but the aftertaste was similar to an in between of the prefilled carts and SB#5, leaning towards the prefilled carts.

I'll give it more thought after using it as my primary vape for the rest of the day and then I'll give my final verdict. I would put this at number 3 on my top list after SB#5 as my number 1 and the prefilled carts as my #2. I could imagine this as my primary vape and if my wife likes it, then I'll be ordering more before the night is through.

Thank you for your help, everyone! Thank you, Stoan! If anyone finds something closer to Special Blend #5, let me know!

 

[Niniane]

Just got mine too. Individual taste buds vary and all so I can't guarantee for anyone else, but it definitely will work as a #5 substitute for me personally 2 days from order to delivery and a lil travel bottle included was nice too. I'll be interested to see what you all think. Thank you so much for the lead, stoan!

 

[Wolfshifter]

Glad you like it to Niniane! Thought I'd edit my last post with my review before I have to leave for work, so let me know what you think/agree with/disagree with.

I had a little bit of SB#5 left over in a cart and after tasting with direct dripping, went ahead and put the SB#5 cart on. Wow! It tastes even better! I might stretch out what SB#5 I have by mixing a little of the two in the travel bottle she included.

I'll let you know how that works out. Probably more of her Marlboro than SB#5 of course. Waste not, want not.

Really Kreel, ya think?.... I know my taste buds are pretty shot but I don't taste any of the 555 nutiness in the special blend at all...Now I have to go revisit it lol


I can't wait to try the widows marlboro.. I"m curious...Cause I'm seriously liking this double flav Dunhill... I think a splash of cinnamon flavoring in it would really work...I"ll look forward to hearing what you guys think...

 

[Niniane]

I don't notice a nutty undertone in #5 either. I do taste a slight one in Widow's, and the cinnamony taste is a bit more on exhale than inhale. But I think if I wasn't purposely being extra picky tasting them side by side I would notice the difference even less (that was probably an obvious statement to make, but yeah, lol).

Who said VapeApe's 555 has a nutty blend? VapeApe's 555 tastes NOTHING like any other 555 on the market. More like a cinnamon blend - Blend #5 to be exact.

 

[Wolfshifter]

I'll give VapeApe's 555 a try and let you know how it is.

 

[Niniane]

Thanks Wolf! I already spent the juice allowance I give myself each paycheck, so I can't test anything else for a bit

 

[PuffinStuff]

I got my Kent flavor from Litecig today and it has a very subtle apple spice flavor. (Thats what my taste buds tell me!!) Could it be the one?

 

[Elvin Pi(e)]

Reading all this made me laugh. . . I have MLB-high carts that came with my 306 and was commenting that it has the same aftertaste as cinnamon applesauce. . .

Well smack my a* and call me happy.. I'ma gonna try it then lol..Thanks kreel

 

[RazorNribbonz]

Hi puffin, I do like the Kent flavor, it's nice...But no, it's not the same as the special blend (smile)

Oh, darn, sorry. I feel bad for ya. You must be goin nuts trying to find this stuff!! I have been vaping for awhile and Im still looking for my "perfect, special" flavor. Cant imagine finding the perfect one.... and not being able to get it again.

 

[Wolfshifter]

Yeah, Puff... Finding my perfect "Brand" to vape was surprising. I'm mad at myself. I would've been perfectly happy vaping all the other liquid that I considered tolerable in comparison to actual analogues... Then, I had to go and find SB#5.

As for the WidowsBeadWork Marlboro. It's not as easy on me for an all-day vape as I was hoping. I like it, but it's not Special Blend #5...

 

[RazorNribbonz]

aww thanks, I'm actually kind of enjoying the search lol..I've discovered the widows marlboro as well as the double dunhill...And I really like them both...I've got 3 PVs going, testing...
Like wolf and Niniane said, the marlboro(med) Is pretty close and good all on its own...To me, it has more of a spicecier undertone as well as a stronger throat hit then the SB5...I can totally see were wolf is coming from saying that this one mixed with the special blend would be really good! As for what's missing...It need's a touch more cinnamon/ sweetness ( apple, maybe)
Where as the double Dunhill is very close in the exact level of spiciness/throathit with over all great flavor...Also missing that certain level of cinnamon/apple and a touch more sweetness...I have to try them both again to determine which of these two are sweeter...
It's delicate work I tell ya lol Because the SB5 is turly not an over sweet vape...Its a very nicely balanced blend...

So my thoughts so far are to mix these two- the marlboro and Dunhill..Then add a touch of flavoring... I have lorrans cinnamon roll ( a lil spicey on its own) I also have "on its way" Capellas- cinnamon and cinnamon danish..As well as a bottle of apple e-liquid... I'm pretty confident that I can get it pretty darn close...And I already have two new flavs that I really like on top of that...
Also on its way is the 555 tobacco( not to be confused with reg 555) from vape ape that kreel has suggested..

Thanks to everyone who helped with their great suggestions...I'm not near as panicky lol
Sure would have been easier if id just liked fruits/menthols full timelol...There is such a vast differrence in tobacco flavors/suppliers

Received the VapeApe 555. Review coming soon.

EDIT:
It is a little nutty. Different from regular 555. Very sweet in a not too sweet way. Weird. Definitely nothing like Special Blend #5. The aftertaste is kind of like Apple juice or Apple pie.

"Kids like Apple Jacks because it doesn't taste like apples!"

Still, I like it more than most of the Marlboros I have. Looks like the search for a SB#5 taste-alike continues. I wonder if this would taste good mixed with Widow's Marlboro. Maybe I'll test it.

Thank you for trying, Kreel.

I really think SB#5 started out as a Marlboro, then was mistaken for 555 and then some, though not all of each different flavors ingredients mixed together. My reason for thinking this, is I taste a little of Special Blend in this 555 and a little in the nutty Marlboros. SB#5 has similar flavors, but with almost none of the nuttiness, if that makes sense.


QUICK FOLLOWUP EDIT:
I direct dripped VapeApe 555 into the atomizer and stuck a cart that I was originally using with SB#5 that had with some Widow's Marlboro left in it. It's good so far. I wonder if it's a fluke. I'll have to try a little mixed later, but I want Razor's opinion on it as well.

 

[Wolfshifter]

Well, I'll keep looking around when I get the chance. So far, I've gone over budget and I have enough various liquids in my fridge to last me longer than I'll need.

Thank you for all your help!
