ST @ 7%. Soooo disappointed! Coconut, yuk! Just goes to show how different we all are.
tobacco Original at 9%. Ok but sort of mediocre.
Tobacco Bourbon @ 7% Mixed but haven't tried yet.
ST @ 7% + Gold Ducat @ 1.5%. Mixed. Been to lazy to change wick in the rda. Probably today but I don't have high hopes any longer.

    So sorry you don't like the Sweet Tobacco. I don't taste coconut in it thank goodness. Didn't get the Original so can't comment on that. I do really like the Tobacco Bourbon a lot. Hoping you do too.

    That is odd about the coconut taste you're getting from the sweet tobacco. I hate coconut and would have thought that I would have picked up on that. However, after initially trying and liking the sweet tobacco, I've been mixing it with butterscotch ripple.

    Coconut requires a long steep, 7-8 weeks, so don't give up yet. What % did you mix at?

    Yeah, I really don't understand the coconut note that people get from the sweet tobacco, and am so glad that I'm not getting it! So funny how a lot of folks are commenting on this, tastes are so subjective!

    @FranC The combo with butterscotch ripple is sweeter out the gate as a shake and vape and within 3 days or so. After that, it mellows out the sweet and tastes similar, just different. I like it freshly mixed, but it is still just as nice after a long steep.

    Apologies, mixed up your post with @Vicman about the coconut note.

    That is about where I plan to mix mine later today. I found out early on in my DIY journey that coconut takes forever to steep,(if you mix it as a stand alone flavor)until then it tastes like just a bunch of chemicals. I don't think this flavor will benefit from any attempts to hurry the aging process. It doesn't seem to require that long of time if its mixed at small amounts in a recipe. However, it seemed that that Pina colada I got from Flavor shake seemed to take that long. As always, ymmv.
