Vendor: River Bottom Fog Sauce
Liquid: Fabulous and Burley 12mg
Description: Burley tobacco is a light air-cured tobacco used primarily for cigarette production. In the United States, it is produced in an eight-state belt with approximately 70% produced in Kentucky. Tennessee produces approximately 20%, with smaller amounts produced in Indiana, North Carolina, Missouri, Ohio, Virginia, Maryland, and West Virginia. Burley tobacco is produced in many other countries, with major production in Brazil, Malawi, and Argentina. Burley contains little sugar, and has generally been cased (sweetened) with humectants, sugars, or other flavors for uses such as in American blend cigarettes. This is a mellow Burley with a mild vanilla infusion. The name comes from the description my Tobacconist used for this blend, "A fabulous Burley with mild vanilla." This is as close to true tobacco flavor you can get without lighting up.
Thoughts:
As I've written before River Bottom Fog Sauce (RBFS) is all about greatness in simplicity. There are no special ingredients nor trademark flavors. With Fabulous and Burley we are treated to not only extracted burley tobacco but also a mild vanilla. The last line in the description above creates great expectations for this liquid.
Fabulous and Burley (FB) is dark brown in color with a tobacco odor. On inhale there is a mild depth tobacco followed by a tiny bit of vanilla on the exhale creating a flavor just sweet enough. There is a little bit of grassy flavor but just enough for the mind to register this as tobacco. The "light air-cured" description is absolutely present as FB has no polarizing features but something that may be universally enjoyed. I wouldn't categorize this as the familiar either/or of pipe/cigar tobacco which is usually found in most extracted tobacco liquid. It's not a "special occasion" flavor either. FB has more of that middle ground that many people would put in their all-day-vape category.
I cannot speak as the similarity to a cigarette as I have never smoked a cigarette (I've only smoked pipe/cigars). I can tell you right now it smells nowhere near as horrid as a cigarette would. I have had burley tobacco in pipe blends, which I enjoyed, and do recognize the flavor as an absolute perfect representative of the real thing.
The vapor production and throat hit are spectacular.
Final Thoughts:
It's time to be honest. RBFS is not the cheapest NET out there. At $22 for 30ml it better be a liquid I can't live without. RBFS doesn't replicate the trend of most higher-priced vendors by creating exotic special blends with secret ingredients. No, they tell you actually what's in the liquid, a very gutsy move on their part. The difference is that Fabulous and Burley goes beyond expectations because you truly are experiencing a spectacular extracted tobacco that is leaves very little residue on the atomizer. Truly an all-day-vape for me. 10/10
