The difference in Sahara & Turkish?

[Kookie]

What is the diffence between Sahara WTA and Turkish Blend Tobacco WTA? I"d assume Sahara implys a turkish blend. I'm thinking Camel if I can say that. So has anyone tried the two?

In my last order I got some Sahara to try. Didn't get the Turkish because it seemed redundant. IDK, I could be wrong. Did squeeze in the Miami Creme Brulee to try though. No turks, just cubans right.

Sahara and Turkish are very different to me. Turkish has a nice flavor, slightly sweet, tending in between Virginia and G.I. Joe. Sahara, to me, has little flavor and a harshness to it, dry, and a fizzy throat hit.

 

[Kookie]

Ah, good to know. Thank you snork. I will definitely give the Turk a try next order. Have yet to try Virginia too. Been eyeing the pomegranate though.

I vape both. Sahara is my all day juice. I think it has less flavor then Turkish but I like the harder throat hit it gives me. Turkish seems a little sweeter to me

Funny you you should mention Bavarian Creme and Pomegranite. Each time i order i do get some new something but i always get Pomegranite and Bavarian Creme. Sometimes i need to air out the Bavarian Creme. Ive been buying it since Summer. Pomegranite i ad a little extra of my Pomegranite flavoring for my own personal taste. I have lazy sinus

I've reviewed both. Below are some excerpts from both reviews. What I taste might not be what you taste.

Sahara

Now that I've spent some time with Sahara WTA, I'll give it a review.
I got it at 12 mg strength, my normal vape. For a little background, I did smoke Camels for years, both Camel 99's and Camel Wides. I don't know if Jerry uses NET tobaccos to flavor these juices, but I am constantly surprised as how close he comes to capturing the essence of the cigarette. Sahara is a very dry vape, with a toned-down throat hit and a high degree of mouth hit. The top of your mouth will instantly dry out from this vape. There is a subtle nutty taste which perfectly compliments the taste of Turkish tobaccos. I don't know if the nuttiness is meant to reproduce the Virgina Burley tobaccos used in Camel cigarettes, but it is a very close approximation.

Final appraisal, this doesn't quite hit the mark as a "camel" reproduction, but it comes very close indeed. In fact, it reminds me most of Kamel Reds.

Turkish Tobacco

It is indeed close to a roll-your-own, similar to Top or Bugler. The vape does have a hint of sweetness, and the tobacco taste I mentioned earlier is reduced, though it is still stronger than Sahara or Beetle Juice. In short, this is about as close as you can get to a freshly opened pouch of roll-your-own tobacco as you can get. I'm still going to re-order this, and I'll enjoy it as a vape both ways. As a straight Turkish tobacco vape, this one gets 5 out of 5 vape rings.

Sahara


Turkish Tobacco

Agree. Turkish is my absolute favorite. I love the non sweet tobacco vape (i mean, it is VERY slight to me), and it has a richness that is great.

 

[lctrc]

I really like Turkish. I'd say it's one of my favorites except that all of them seem to be my favorites...

Except Sahara, which I didn't like it at all. To me it had an odd perfumy floral quality that reminded me of viognier (which I don't care for either).

 

[Kookie]

Just ordered the Turk today. I must say, I DO like the Sahara and ordered more. It will be fun to compare them.

I love both the Sahara and Turkish. I left out Turkish on my last order and opted for Sahara thinking the same thing - that they can't be that dissimilar. I do like the stronger ashy throat hit of Sahara.

 

[PLANofMAN]

In that case, you might really like G.I. Joe. It's more "punchy" than Sahara.

 

[Kookie]

Yes I like G.I. Joe. The Joe is more similar to the Beatle Juice though. Joe has the same tobacco sweetness as Beatle Juice, but it is much more subtle. Joe is also more "ashy" than Beatle Juice. (I hate to use that word, "ashy", but I heard that used here. Ashy is a turn off IMO. I think I know what that word is trying to get at. More like smokey or smoke like.) I suppose "ashy" like Sahara, but the sweet undertone puts it closer to Beatle Juice. To me Sahara is very simple. It doesn't have a lot of complexity and I find that very refreshing. But, as of yet I cannot still compare the Turk because its sitting at the post office just down the road this Sunday.

 

[snork]

I think it's interesting how our general descriptions of things are all very similar, but whether we like them or not varies widely.

 

[Kookie]

Yeah I know. That’s why I am somewhat reluctant to give my opinions. I don't want to turn someone off who might like something.

 

[snork]

I think by now most people know the only way to find out is to try it. Some people may value my opinion since they might also love G.I. Joe, but my dislike of Sahara sort of comes out if the blue, no rhyme or reason.

Which is a good thing for the rest of us. Otherwise he would be buying up all the Sahara like he does the GI Joe lmao
