Ya know, I was talking to the owner of a cigar shop a couple months ago and he was saying that the longer the tobacco for cigars is cured the more the nicotine is unh, can't think of the word I want, but the nicotine is reduced as a result of the curing.

A simply safe soak that gets the alkaloids other than nic, augment with a known e-liquid for desired nic content?

I think you said that already Vaporer...

So you're saying use old stale tobacco and use eliquid to soak out alkaloids?
Duh, ok, now I gotcha. Vaporer did use cigars, but the cheap ones, so most likely the cheap ones only go through short/quick-to-market cures. S'pose we could pony up the moola to hire a good swimmer to get Vaporer a good Cuban Seegar for testing? :D

Away..
lol....yea....it does become a vicious circle.
You almost have to decide what you want out of it.
Alkaloids seems to be the toughest to get if I read it all right. Figures.
Tobacco just has to much prune residue in it.....hahaha

Burbon, more like Jack or Jim Beam? Woot!

Here's an idea, maybe we should go for just flavor and get it. Then we can go for nic for those that dont like snus. I can snus and vape PG/VG for the effect..........

Maybe we should try to get it out with a Burbon soak? Heck, if it didnt come out the vape wouldnt be a total loss ! :lol:

Next hurricane that goes by there I'll get Al Gore and his climate guys to have it pick up a cuban and drop it off on it's way by here.

That's keeping it green! Combine the errands on one trip. Gore would be proud!

Sorry I'm slow. I just got that. Duhh
hehehe :lol:
