Does the NZ mix affect the flavor at all? I've got a PBC and Hummingbird in NZ and it's delicious. Just wondering if you need the nic to get the full tobacco flavor.

Some of the NZ vapes are boosted - (CLS/CB) because the standard ratio is 50/50 and we wanted to do them in MAXVG so additional flavoring was required. Hummingbird is MAXVG across the board so there's no differentiable difference in flavor load. Then there are NZ offerings like Gravity and Betelgeuse and H1N1 which are in the standard PG/VG ratio, and standard flavor load (because boosting doesn't translate well). So, long story short, every liquid is different.

PBC is also boosted

Just got a purple package in the mail with Radioactive and a backup of Hummingbird. Unwrapped a new evod and loaded it with Radioactive fresh out of the mail. Soooo hard to describe! Lightly sweet marshmallow, vanilla, tobacco (a seemingly more authentic tobacco hit than H1N1 which took me by surprise). There's another component which I simply can't quite identify. It's the spice note. That specific note, and it's subtle, tastes much more woodsy than spicy. Not oak, it's more like a pecan shell flavor. Sounds weird but it works. I can't WAIT to try this with some barbecue! I am in love!

This isn't quite as sweet as many other Nicoticket flavors. It's an honest tobacco based eliquid, which was exactly the opposite of what I was expecting. I thought it would have more vanilla than H1N1 but I taste less. Maybe it's my specific taste buds tricking me but this stuff is outrageous! I understand why it has such a devoted following. Count me in! :laugh:

You pretty much nailed it - less sweet for sure. More authentic tobacco flavor, maybe more pipe'ish or cigar'ish in finish. The vanilla intensifies over time, but it's there in large quantities. Some have detected apple notes in it for sure - in passing, anyway.

Oh, apple is another fruit flavor that I can't taste. It's believable though. I know something else is in there I can't quite identify (same with my beloved Virus but that one changes flavors all the time). The tobacco seems closer to a cigar or even a cigarette than a pipe tobacco, at least fresh out of the mail. Radioactive is a pretty straight forward eliquid with a big set of balls. I'm very glad the vanilla is so much lighter than I was expecting. H1N1 and Frenilla have those bases covered. This one has a completely different thing going for it. That pecan wood. I may have to back off it before I overdo the nicotine. I already know that I won't be vaping any other flavor today. Thank you so much for bringing it back for everyone who missed the previous runs, and thank you for the upgrade. This is something I will order EVERY TIME it hits the site.

Man, is there a bourbon flavor hidden in here? What the deuce?! Hardcore mojo.

Purple package landed today. Got home and dripped some NZ cls and NZ radio. Both wonderful. Im finding the cls to be intense... Not in a bad way, but a wild custard ride nonetheless. A bit perfumy at first. Quite satisfying for no nic. Definitely little to no flavor loss for the reduced PG. looking forward to mixing with well steeped cls at 12mg. I am having trouble finding the PG/VG ratio of these two NZ offerings. Can we learn more about the ratios, Kent? P.S. your "dream team" is killing it! Cheers to the new guys and gals. Im very pleased to see your business grow. Congrats! Can't thank you enough for everything.

Got my order of radioactive in today along with a nice little extra surprise inside.......thank you Clark. Those purple packages do wonders for ones outlook on an ordinary mundane day. I have a great day at work every time a purple package is delivered. And once again after tasting another one of NT juices I immediately went out and bought another kayfun to give exclusive rights to another winner. It's so tough to describe the flavor but the tobacco is perfectly balanced with the sweetness of vanilla and a little marshmallow maybe ? Or even a rice Krispy treat taste on the exhale. However it's described it tastes great in my book. Thank you NT !!!



Thank you kindly for the order Benztee - went straight for a 50ml - good call. If you like H1N1, Radioactive isn't that far "off base" - it's in the same style, different spin though. With the pre-steep on it, winner winner chicken dinner.

Got my purple package today as well. Going to have to order some more kayfuns, the one I have is currently infected and it tastes better in there than the PT Mini's so may have to wait a little bit..not too long of course...to properly vape the RADIOACTIVE. Did load some PBC into the PT 3...(to quote George Takei) Oh Myyy!!. Gonna start double barreling here shortly. :blink: Thank you Clark for the surprise, how silly of me not to think of it :D

Had to refill again! I'm not even sure why I like it so much. If I vape a little H1N1 to compare the two, I can start to taste the vanilla in Radioactive, but when I vape it alone for a while the vanilla backs down and the wood flavors come on stronger.

Clark, if this will be the last run of Radioactive please tell me. If so I'll have to sacrifice a bottle of Frenilla for a back up of this.

Oh thank GOODNESS I thought I was crazy tasting what to me, reminded me of sitting around a mixed wood campfire (one of my favorite smells by the way) eating toasted marshmallows (toasted perfect to me is set on fire and quickly blown out by the way) and mountain pies. That's just in my Aerotank, and fresh out of the mailbox I haven't gotten to try it in a carto or Reo/Taifun/etc yet.
