The Hangsen Thread

[JeremyR]

Dang it, I wanted to order hangsen cohiba on my order two days ago...

Wow, I have never in two years mixed a hangsen flavor with anything else.. With these its not nessary. They are complete flavors on arrival... Not that you can't by all means you can, I just mention this because I think your new to hangsen..

18% flavoring, sure would gunk up a coil quick.. I dont use more than 5% flavor total.. But that's just me, please dont take offense just another angle on flavoring amounts.

The one I particularly enjoy when well-aged is Tab Blended. After ~3 months it yields a beautiful, rich, and creamy amber.

Most of mine tasted too sweet today; so enjoying Churchill, CO (Cohiba) and some mixing of the two. Cheers!

I enjoyed my 10ml tester of Tab blend at 8%; just made 50ml more, bottle is cooking now...3 hours so far, 1 more to go...

BTW, after some weeks of developing, DELUXE is awesome! Also, #5 with a tab of chocolate and AP. (Danny's recipe) I can't stand AP at 1%, not even at 0.5 but 0.25% seems to be perfect to my liking.

All them are good. (But Cigar and KO tobacco...
)

Are you talking about the Cohiba Cigar flavoring from the recipe I posted?

If so, the Cohiba Cigar was not a Hangsen product ... It came from here: 30 ml Cohiba Cigar (CT)

Thanks Flt but my question was about a Hangsen flavor, "CO tobacco". However I'm curious about those other Chinese Tobaccos that RST sells, I may give them a try. I've been told that their "Japanese tobacco" is a gem.

 

[Flt Simulation]

The Chinese Tobacco (CT) brand of 'Cohiba Cigar' that RTS sells is the only cigar flavoring I have ever used that actually smells like a cigar.

 

[JeremyR]

Hey Art, the co is at RTS. I haven't tried it yet

10 ml CO Tobacco Flavor (HS)

I just gotta say RTS Impresses me every time. Got my order within 3 days.. The packaging is great. The bottles are sealed in plastic and then bubble wrap sealed.. Then packed in peanuts and paper.

Been vaping the elder captain pretty heavily the last few days.. At 4% in VG. I am detecting a hint of red in it.. A background note, and its quite a bit lighter in color than the red. Maybe have your friend try it...

Desert ship and highway are tasting great as well

Jeremy, just so you will know, you helped me find the exact flavor I was looking for. I owe you one. The flavor is quite simply called "Tobacco" Just simple basic tobacco without too many additives and/or distractions. It is crystal clear (so far) , and yes, it does taste similar to US Red. I highly recommend this choice to those who are into a basic non fancy tobacco.

PS. I heard Phil Basardo mention your name - great job on that Ryan thread.

 

[JeremyR]

Cool, thats awesome.. I always wondered what the plain - tobacco was like.. Sounds like a good one for the just tobacco thread.

How do you mix Delux? I've been at 8% (my default on Hg) and just a little too sweet; was thinking 7 or maybe 6.5%. BTW, have you tried the DE? Think it's the same vein as Delux and a favorite of mine.

And what's Danny's recipe on #5? Wouldn't mind giving a try.

Tab has definitely shown me how much our tastebud can change/recover over time. If you'd asked six months ago I would have told you that tab have light flavor. Now one year after quitting, it tastes full and rich.

And Jeremy, since you're going to have to order CO, might as well load up so don't pay shipping!

 

[shgilman]

I have mixed my Hangsen RY4 too strong, (13%). Can I dilute back down to say 6.5% and will the flavor return? I think I was too impatient with the mixture and kept adding thinking it would improve. WRONG! Its been steeping for about a month.
Any advice would be appreciated.

Mix equal amounts of your RY4 and vg/pg and you'll have 6.5%. Mix well and vape. FYI, some of us think RY4 is not one of HG's better flavors; not bad just not very full flavored. Cheers!

i mix deluxe at 7% Lovevanilla, and at first I noticed it a bit on the sweet side too, so i forgot about it but after one month it is very good, it changed (or my tastebuds did) but now the tobacco flavor has developed a lot and i don't find same sweetness on it, just a very nice one.
Danny's recipe for # 5 is:
#5---7%
chocolate --2% (i am not sure if he mentioned which chocolate but I used TFA dark)
ethylmaltol---0.5%
AP---1%
I lowered AP to 0.25%---at 1% is horrible for my taste, even at 0.5 was high. At 0.25 think i find it very good. But that is me...
Chocolate was a bit overwhelming at the beginning but it has tamed down with with steeping; maybe next time Ill take it to 1%, since I don't like to wait long steeping times.

and yes, TAB is very good. Another star. i haven't tried DE yet, but if it is like Deluxe after steeping, wow!

 

[Stacy1]

I like deluxe at 5% with a 4 week steep

I'd suggest pulling off 1ml or even .5 ml, dilute the desired amount and test. Once a liquid has steeped then you'll know what you have pretty much immediately or no more than a couple hours or so.

I hope you have better luck than I did. I wound up diluting mine way down and using it to add complexity to some of my other tobacco mixes. Do you have any vanilla and caramel flavors? Also what other tobacco flavors do you have?

I ordered a bunch of flavors from buyhangsen, all tobacco's, some flavors I've tried some I have not. Quite frankly, I'm disappointed. They all taste pretty much the same to me. I don't know if it's because they're all 0mg but they sure don't taste like the 6mg juices I've had in the past.
And then I tried the Black Label. Good lord, what flavor is this supposed to be? It's certainly not "Smooth, strong and well rounded with a good honest tobacco taste."
Did I get a bad bottle?

 

[JeremyR]

Black label is djarum. Clove cigarette. How is it I was going to order a sample..

Many flavors share a common base tobacco. I believe there are 3 different naturally extracted tobacco bases that they use..

Its the nuances and different mixtures that make them different. Sometime your buds only pic up the main base for a bit with a new flavor. Then later you notice the difference. Give each a little time.

You may have happened to order a bunch that are similar. Some of them are lighter flavors for lite/ ultra light smokers.

What flavors do you have?

Do they have dates on them??

And I believe they all contain Acetyl Pyrazine - except for a few.

I would Try 3-5%

Good news is you have a pre steeped concentrate Yes dilute it down, half or all it doesn't matter. Use the calculators to figure the nic base to add to bring it down.

Say you take 10ml of the 13% . that has 1.3 ml of flavor in it.

So to make 4% add 22ml of base you'll have 32ml at 4%.

To make 5% add 15ml base for 25ml @5%.

How much do you have and how much do you want to make at what flavor % I can tell you exactly.
