[mightymen]

Part of email I got today.

"I want to share some great news with you and introduce you to the next exciting phase of Johnson Creek’s extraordinary growth. You might not recognize their name, but they are the nation’s largest distributor of roll-your own and make-your-own tobacco products and accessories and we have launched a new strategic endeavor with Republic tobacco. By joining forces with Republic Tobacco, the Johnson Creek Smoke juice products you love will soon be available in retail outlets nationwide. "


Comment: They have a good product line. I have two Vea for over year working great still haven't bought any juice from them since DIY my juice but that's also a good product made in AMERICA. The company that bought them out is also one of the big players in their field. You heard of their products and see them daily

"Republic Tobacco is the nation's largest distributor of roll-your-own and make-your-own tobacco products and accessories that include such brands as Job, Top, Gambler, Drum, Largo and Tube Cut.

GLENVIEW, Ill. & HARTLAND, Wis. -- Looking to leverage the new consumer vaping trend that some industry observers believe could be even bigger than the relatively new category of electronic cigarettes itself, Republic Tobacco has purchased Johnson Creek Enterprises of Hartland, Wis., a juice supplier for vaping products in the United States.

Through its affiliates, Glenview, Ill.-based Republic Tobacco has taken an equity interest in Johnson Creek.

Honestly, I don't know why but somehow and for no particular reason, I can't help but feel this is ultimately not going to be good for e cigs.

I think a tobacco company wants into the e-cig market. And for good reason, too. If nic ejuice is going to end up taxed and handled just like leaf tobacco, the store shelf will make room.

For myself, I live in a small town and, although it has four B&Ms, their ejuice is made by one guy each in a closet in the back. Getting a more "crafted" ejuice into mainstream stores would be nice.

Of course tobacco company wants in on the e-cig market it's about making money and if they going to invest in a new product than it must be stable good product and not a fade.

But don't confuse Republic Tabaco with the guys who make those stinkies they products are not the same I think.

They are the nation's largest distributor meaning it's setup to go right now on store shelf and be sold - They have a large juice selection made in USA, Vea ecig device - good product and more.

I prefer to see they products on store shelf's than those cheap $ 10.00 throw away ecigs I see now.

IMO: I think this will be great for Ecig Major player with lots of money to lobby for us and stand with us.

When someone picks up one of they products they will be given lots of juice choice's from the start and can even buy the same product on line today. I don't see it being bad.

As far tax money goes that's the Government Federal and local guys and sooner or later you know they going reach into your pockets and tax this stuff if they can.

I think their make the juice for blucigs

I think RYO companies are not part of the "big tobacco" club... Id rather see a company like this succeed in the ecig industry over manipulative big tobacco companies like Phillip Morris. But those are just my initial thoughts which can easily be swayed depending on what sort of other in depth opinions I read, and my open minded thinking

Made my first order from Johnson's Creek last night. I ordered Red Oak Domestic. Tried a sample of their French Vanilla tobacco from a local store. Good stuff.
