Received my first order from Tasty Vapor today. I got the Tobacco - 12mg - 80 pg/20 vg.
Shipping took a long time but apparently Geoff had some extenuating circumstances going on so I don't have a problem with that. Most of the juice sellers are individuals not big factories and @#$! happens sometimes. No big deal. Most people say he ships extremely fast so it's not something I'll worry about when ordering again.
Packaging was great, Tasty Vapor has an attractive label handwritten with whatever you ordered on the front. The 1 oz.(29ml) bottle it came in is nice and has a sharp drip tip and isn't too hard to squeeze. Now on to the juice.
I bought this because I've seen alot of people rave about it and I'm always on the hunt for the next best tobacco flavor. My two tobacco flavors of choice right now are eliquidplanet.com' s TOBACCO and FLUE-CURED. They are my goto every day vape. The only problems with them are ELP only sells in 10ml bottles and I want at least a 30ml bottle. At $8.99 per 10ml, it's a bit expensive as far as juice prices go these days but I received an email from Rich saying they would be carrying bigger bottles in the near future and would soon start offering discount pricing when ordering 3 10ml bottles soon. I'll be all over that.
But anyway. I loaded up my new liquid in a blank KR808 cartomizer and slapped it on the 3.7v battery and gave it a vape. At this point I'll give the standard disclaimer: Preference of flavors is obviously extremely subjective so something I don't really care for may be your greatest flavor of all time.
According to the website "This is our own tobacco maceration made from Virginia/Burley/Oriental tobacco. Steeped for a week, strained, clarified and finished with a few choice additives. This is a very aromatic, natural and flavorful liquid.".
The first two things that popped into my head upon that first toot was corn and vegetable oil. It didn't taste terrible but I also didn't get any tobacco flavor. I understand that tobacco flavor in vaping is not that same taste you get when smoking an analog because, of course,the tobacco in an analog is on fire. But what an eliquid tobacco flavor should taste like to me is that nice smell of fresh cut tobacco and I didn't get that from the Tasty Vapor liquid. It is a flavorful liquid, you don't have to go searching for the flavor. It is definitely there. Once again, you may think this tobacco flavor is the bee's knees but I just don't care for it.
Vapor production is excellent for the setup I am using. It feels like a high quality juice. No residual feels or flavors left in your mouth after a toke. And to be quite honest, after half a dozen hits, this 12mg juice gave me a little head rush.
Throat hit wasn't present but that is due to my vaping style combined with medium to low nic amounts. I really don't care about throat hit.
I'll probably order from Tasty Vapor again. They get too many good reviews to think you wouldn't eventually find something you really liked. There prices are good at a little over 50 cents per ml. The drawback is that they don't sell sampler bottles (even with the "we mix everything fresh/don't have time to do sampler bottles"angle, I just don't understand vendors that don't offer small/sampler bottles). You pay $15 per 1 oz. bottle and if you haven't tried it before and don't like it then you are out of luck.
I'm not going to write this one off. I'm going to come back to it from time to time to see if maybe my taste buds have changed or it grabs me in a different way.
