please recommend a mild tobacco from FlavourArt

[HeadInClouds]

I haven't vaped a tobacco flavor in while, other than RY4Double by TFA. My favorite other flavors are mostly FlavourArt, and I know many of you like their tobaccos. Which is their mildest taste? 7 Leaves maybe, or Virginia? (Dark Vapure was the MOST revolting flavor I've encountered; hopefully they have much milder choices!)

Maxx Blend
Mellow Sunset
7 Leaves
Burley
Virginia

spaceballs, is that list in order, or a list of all the milder ones? With the name "Burley" I would have thought it was an....aggressive flavor.

Try Virginia .Thats only flavor my wife vapes.She likes it strong at 10% but I imagine at 3-5 % would be pretty mellow.

 

[spaceballsrules]

Those are in no particular order, but looking at it again, it is pretty much from weakest to strongest, give or take.

Burley is just a type of air-cured tobacco grown in Kentucky and is known for being soft, light, and having very little bite to it. Not to be confused with the word burly.

Shade is pretty mild mix around 2%-3%, not a prominent tobacco flavor but was my all day vape for many many months. Dark vapure was pretty revolting to me also. I had to through away an atty or two with that one. Virginia with a little green tea, or shade mixed with a little green tea isn't bad either.

I like Maxx Blend. I've got Shade on order, but have not tried it yet.

I really like their royal and 7 leaves, plus they both mix well with other tobacco flavors.

Dark Vapure (like some of the other stronger FA tobaccos - like Perique and Black Fire) is a "go easy, or barf" vape to us! .5% as a 'stand alone' is MORE than plenty! And the absolute limit (for us) in a mix is around 2%...and that's if there's some ultra heavy flavors to soften and smother 'em - like thick creams, marshmallow, etc.

But man, when a vape wants those bad boys, it'll be 'empty & blah' without 'em.

So if you tried them alone at any more than .5%, you might wanna revisit them one day - "just to make sure".

I use the Virginia in a lot of my mixes at 3%.

Ozone is super mild, it goes well with mild fruits. Oba Oba is in with the tobaccos and had me wondering why, at first there is no tobacco taste at all, it took about a month. I will add that I didn't like it when the tobacco showed up but ymmv.

Ahhhh - I have Oba Oba and didn't know it was supposed to be a tobacco! I'll let mine sit and see if I taste anything new after a while.

If Oba Oba and Dark Vapure are both included in FA's idea of tobacco, there sure is a huge flavor range. So far Virginia is sounding like one I should try. If I could get tiny bottles I'd try them all, but I don't want to end up with more I can't use like Dark Vapure (sitting triple-bagged in my PIF area, and I swear I can still smell it...ew). Other than that and a bad bottle of Blackberry, I've loved all the FA flavors.

I really appreciate the comments and suggestions, everyone. My notepad and pen are still at the ready for any more input!

Oba-Oba also was my all day vape then your taste change and it got too sweet for me. I revisit it now and again and always have some mixed. 7% seems to be the magic point. I use to mix it at 3%. Then it was posted here from 7%-10%. I have tried them all with long steeps and 7% gives you the full range of flavors without muting the tobacco or marshmallow.

Every time I looked at "ozone", I didn't know it was a tobacco, all I could think of was that ozium odor spray...lol.

By the way I notice they have a peach tobacco, and a sunset peach now has anyone tried these? It sounds yummy but may have to make my own!

I accidentally bought cowland instead of cowboy, because cowboy it had some many good reviews. If I remember correctly the Cowland was a light honey flavored tobacco also. I would not recommend anymore than 2% tops on any of these except oba-oba.

Maybe some day but I just cant bring myself to it again, this came up somewhere else the other day and I may have even thrown that one out. If I didnt and feeling brave I'll have to mix some up when mixing and try a very small 0.5% batch.

Oba Oba is not listed as a Tobacco on FA's website.

I love/d Oba, and used to get SO irritated with folks saying anything about Oba and Tobacco in the same sentence...until I made a huge bottle and didn't vape it all for almost a month. Then filled up a tank with it one day and went "what is this?" - because it tasted very tobacco-ish.

So now I understand why folks elude to it being a tobacco flavor. However, methinks it's not meant to be "a tobacco" because as far as I can see/tell, it's never been sold as one.

'Haven't had any for weeks since it 'turned on me' (lol) - but now I'm gonna have to go make a small bottle. I miss my Oba!

 

[cignewton]

Iba now wonderingba ifba I should tryba the oba oba.

Sorry, just dated myself with a 1970's Fat Albert reference.

I have not tried it, but sounds interesting.

I really like the Maxx Blend @5% It's got a subtle spicy taste to it and the bacco is mellow. The Virginia I mixed at 5% is a little on the strong side and definitely has the bacco bite, but in a good clean way. I also added the Virginia to a simple Tribeca clone @1% and am pleased with the outcome.

I use the FA Virginia in a Tribeca clone recipe, and that recipe is really close to the original.

Tribeca Clone 26 (fogMann)
TFA RY4 Double 12.0%
FA Virginia 1.1%
Hangsen Flue Cured 1.1%
TFA AP 1.0%

Could someone suggest the proper % to use for 7Leaves? What other flavors does it go with.... Juicy peach for example? I have tried it with a tiny bit of blue berry, and it's wonderful.

Maxx is pretty mild
