I tried HS Flue Cured, Highway, British, Tab Blended, Elder Captain. All are very nice with a little sweetness to it. All mix at 70/30, different %.
The only disappointment so far comes from RY1. It tastes odd on its own. I did add Vanilla later on, but the Vanilla over-power the RY1.
May be I will try to add some AP if that helps. But all the others I did not add any AP or additional flavours and they are all ok to vape.
HS Plum is also very nice even @ 4%.

I found the RY1 at 7% with 2% hangsen vanilla very good anything more then 2% will mute the RY1.

Hey just poking my nose in here for a second. About that concentrate and this calculator appear to go together to form a base as a 2 part mixture as some of you are familiar with on the Inawera brand. Similar to the DNB, and other flavored bases. Just not as concentrated as a tobacco absolute and indicates a NET to me, as I know Hangsen uses.
I looked into this many months ago, both the calculator and the concentrate that was mentioned go together!
I saw this concentrate in their DIY kits that had nothing in them, but the concentrate, pg, vg, and nicotine with a couple of bottles. Again it appears to me as, like a tobacco absolute, and similar to the bases some of you know through Inawera as Dirty Neutral base, or the Virginia base etc. accept I think due to this high percentage is a natural extacted tobacco that I know they use, so It would not tech. be a tobacco absolute, but a NET flavoring for bases, and then your flavors would be added to this base mixture.
I think It would be interesting to try this and have wanted to for some time but I don't do well with many Hangsen flavors long term.
I hope this clears this up a little, and it is not advertised, nor pushed very hard from Hangsen, and I think it is a miss opportunity for them in the US. Possibly a language barrier translation thing.
Take care,
Dan

I have a question about these Hangsen flavors. I have 3 which are Highway, Virginia and RY1. I mixed the 3 each at 5% right at a month ago. The Highway and Virginia are weak and I will up the percentage on those. The RY1 however is good, I think.
So is the RY1 a stronger flavor and doesn't need a higher percentage or would I get better flavor if I upped that one as well? These are my first tobacco flavors so I have no idea about any of them and I am just trying to make sense of this. I know the other 2 definitely need more flavor and don't care for them at all being weak but the RY1 I have been vaping all day. So are these flavors that different that they would need different percentages or would the RY1 be even better if it were higher too?

Different ones may take different percentages, and each of us may have a different preference for our own taste. The right percentage is the one you like.
However I had these same problems and hangsen flavors will fade over time. dannyv brought it to my attention a while back about the fade issue with these flavors. Not all flavors are like this!
I would end up mixing flavors at 5%, with good and strong flavor, lots of undernotes. A few weeks later they would be diminished in flavor.
I wrote a similar post as you and he explained how these flavors will fade over time and suggested around 7% for most of them and that is what I ended up doing from the start.
If the RY-1 is good after a month at 5% leave it alone for now and you should be all set with that one! See if it holds up until you finish vaping that batch! But the others try upping to 7% with small 5-10ml batches and see if that helps you. Just keep a note book, or an excel spread sheet , whatever, and keep notes on which ones you mixed at what percentages.
There is somewhat of a threshold on the fade with these. With hangsen I would mix smaller batches more often, rather then mixing larger batches and having flavors fade too much.
If you use a calculator I highly recommend the dot1ml | E-liquid calculator & recipe database. It is web based calculator and all your mixes will be saved to your online account. It is very versatile and you don't have to worry about losing your files. You can set up all you preferences after creating an account. When you go to mix they will fill in what you want for outcome and the base used. Updates to the software are done all online so no need to download anything. you can even search other peoples recipes and save a copy to your files and edit them.

from what I read it's more like a tobacco distillation (like vodka and other spirits)
I don't use AP in it so it's really a matter of what taste good to you.

Thanks! That made things much clearer for me.
Have you tried highway... Makes sense.. .. I have the smooth from hangsen I can only say its a light flavor a kin to a Marlboro light,
I'm vaping HS Highway all day today. Steeped some 3 wks with a smooth light sweetness & slight touch of nutty tobacco.
Has anyone suggested a sweet spot percentage for HS Pipe? Was your first impression weak or strong flavor? My current tobaccos sit around 7 to 9%.
So after four months of madly mixing and vape testing this and that to arrive at my current 8 Hangsen flavor rotation, I realized I'M DESPERATELY NEEDING TO VAPE 7 LEAVES!
Yes, that 7 Leaves I bought a bottle of with my starter kit day one. A week later I bought another 10ml of premixed 7 leaves and then explored other flavors with online ordering, stalking mailman, mixing, updating e-calculator, mixing some more, and vape testing madness began. So last night ordered Pipe & 7 Leaves by RTS to mix a big ole' bottle of the stuff.
But still wondering what ya'll thought of Pipe for flavor or tobacco strength if any.

I like it at about 7%. It is a weaker flavor. I have mixed it at 10% and believe it was better. However, I am from the "camp" where I use the least amount of flavoring I can get by with.
I haven't yet but I'm placing an order tonight and will add that one too. Thanks!
I mixed the pipe at 7% and though it to be a bit weak. But that's just me and my hunger for strong tobaccos
For those looking for a slightly sweet tobacco just add a touch of EM. Like 1% tops. I find tab and magic mix slightly sweet on their own. But others like Indian and RY1 are nice with a touch of added subtle sweetness. EM also rounds out the flavor as well. At least to my palate.
Just got some Highway
What's the best percentage to start with ?
I was thinking 12-15% . Is that too high ?
