I am wondering if there is any advice on concentrations of flavors? I have several flavors ( and growing weekly it seems lol) all from RTS Vapes. Brand is The Flavor Apprentice. All of the bakery flavors seem spot on at about 20%. But whenever I try a tobacco flavor, and ive tried two different ones now, they dont taste like tobacco. One almost had a latex paint flavor and the other tasted kinda floral and maybe too strong. Are the tobacco flavors supposed to be stronger or just this brand? Ive mixed many different flavors and am loving the variety but want a good basic tobacco as well.
Im mixing a 30% VG juice. Ive tried increasing and even mixing the tobacco with other flavors but nothing comes out right.
Im vaping an eGo-T with a clearomizer...
Thanks!

well first many tob flavors will smell more like tob then they taste.
and usually if a blend has too much chemical or floral notes let it sit for a day or two with the cap off.
also some blends need to steep or age longer then others and taste better the older they get,.
personally i would air them out for a day maybe two, then put them away and try them again in about a week or longer.

I would say hit up the ejuice forums for suggestions on a good tob flavor.

tob flavors can't usually be done at 20%. It is WAY overkill. Start at around 2% and go up slowly from there. Also, steep time is very important for most tobaccos I've tried. If you dont have time to wait, put bottle in hot water with cap off (let sit til cools, cap and shake. Re-fill hot water and do again at least one or two more times). Best to wait at least a week, but we all know sometimes that just can't happen. so hot steep if really needed. Overall, i'd just say that tobaccos seem to be the hardest to mix well. if you can tolerate it, try a sweet or fruit and you may find yourself with more success. (IMHO)
