The Throat Hit Chase...

[Mr.Mann]

I hated the PG version of Johnson Creek's Original Smoke juice in part because of what I consider to be "the throat hit from hell". It was like hitting some straight schwag Is that what you crave?

On the other hand, I really like the KPB and Bounty Hunter's TH like a few mention here. Seems just right for me. The BH is spicier, while the KPB's is more of a dry hit.

I also like DK-Tab's TH, but have tried some other dekang like Gold & Silver, and it's too much for me. I personally don't enjoy coughing from vaping e-cigs, but if thats what you dig, some dekang could do the job for cheap

Nah, Passerbyeus and I were really just being over the top with the whole coughing thing. I do really like sensation, but not "schwag" hacking

At some point I will have to try "KPB and Bounty Hunter". I think a switch cuts something on in my brain when I feel the hit, but I will be the first to say that I was being a little hyperbolic initially

just got my Quick Nic juices in. filled up a carto of Enigma and it definitely has a sufficient TH. im gonna have to let the flavor steep a bit before i can tell how much i like it. i give a full report on all the flavors once i have a chance to fully delve in.

i like the reinforcement of the KPB rec. DK-TAB is on my short list already.
lol @ the schwag

 

[Mr.Mann]

Can't wait to here your findings. Also, what device are you vaping?

Lol delve- the word of the day

Delving is wayyyyy underrated.

 

[Mr.Mann]

Such a sexy word!

 

[John D in CT]

Such a sexy word!

Yo, mama, you sho' are lookin' fine today - care to delve? LOL

I like this thread - The Dude sets the mood

I agree with the OP. No TH, I'm not vaping it. I haven't been able to give some vendors their fair shake because of this. Virgin Vapors comes to mind with their sample pack which had pretty much 0 TH and I couldn't order samples of my usual 24mg of nic.

Try Quick Nic juices if you like TH. Their Engima is great and I'm loving their Vanilla Custard. Flavor and TH!

ok so the TH is mega on the French Toast! im still waiting for the flavors to come together though. this juice needs some steepage time.
while the TH is good on the Enigma, its not what id consider a heavy hitter. i got it at 24mg, and im afraid i couldnt do my normal 18 on this juice. tastes great though. ive really come to love the slight savory n sweet aspect i find in juices from time to time. and this ones got it. think of a slightly creamy sweet vape that got kicked in the balls with buttered rum.

Can't wait to here your findings. Also, what device are you vaping?

 

[Kemosabe]

oh and im vaping on my VariCool SmokBox with 1.7 ohm Resurrectors. cant really go higher than 3.6v with enigma or it starts tasting burnt.

 

[Mr.Mann]

Never would I have thunk French Toast would be on your or my list! Was the French Toast the juice who got kicked in the....with buttered rum?

I think different eliquids like the cinnamon, which probably has pepper in it, does not create true throat hit but instead throat irritation. To me, throat hit is 90% nicotine strength and warmth of the vapor from a good 5 volt or variable volt PV. I definitely want to feel a good strong throat hit but NOT a burning sensation. I've tried every additive talked about on ECF and none provided true TH to me or to most others who I've talked to.

But I do know that some vapers love that burning feeling from pepper based eliquids, which is great that they are available. I just don't view it as throat hit or as I call it the "inhaled feel" of the real thing.

Quoting this just to make sure it is viewed again.

I will be the first to say that, ultimately, this is about whatever pleases each person. There is no right or wrong nor do I have the exclusive rights to what should or shouldn't be considered throat hit. I am going on the assumption that we all smoked and some of us used to enjoy a full, warm feeling in the throat as we inhaled. Having tried countless liquids since I started, the ones I didn't like far outnumbered the ones I liked. Regardless of taste though, as long as they provided throat hit (or that inhaled feel as mentioned above) I was all set to go and gladly used every last drop.

On the other hand, I can refer to the difference between many Canadian/English brands and American brands. The Canadian and English cigarettes had a tendency to create more of the "burning" sensation than the American brands. On my first visit to Canada (many moons ago) I discovered I could not buy Marlboro. I was stuck with Dumarrier (spelling) as my friends did not smoke. It was a terrible experience for me (that I still remember 20+ years later) while the locals smoked them and were very happy. On subsequent visits to friends who smoked, I brought my own but was always asked if I could bring up a carton or two. I remember they used to open their freezers to store the cartons and they were simply packed with US cigarettes.

I/We may be going back and forth over semantics here but the terminology should be as descriptive as possible because the closer to the real thing we can get, the easier it is to set that pack aside forever and never look back.

I just wrote my response, but after re-reading your post I am a little puzzled. Are you saying, I did not do a good enough job with my description in my original post? Basically, I need to know what "terminology" should be as descriptive as possible.

yes mr.mann, basically what he is saying is that you have no idea what you are talking about and should re-do the initial post you made because it makes no sense whatsoever.


actually i have no idea what he wrote lol.

i like this thread.

 

[Mr.Mann]

DUDE!!!!!!I can barely type right now because I am using my fists! DAMN YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was about to go postal! OMG, who ever smoked a cinnamon cigarette? Geez. I'm saying...



You got me on that one.

 

[throatkick]

LOL

The short version:
Your message was great and it's wonderful that you found exactly what you are looking for.

Throat Hit is a sensation that is not easily described with words. What one person thinks is throat hit is not what another may think is throat hit. I tried to describe the difference. Nobody is right and nobody is wrong.

 

[Mr.Mann]

Thanks. When I saw the quote, I kind of got a little hot because I thought we were back on the "cinnamon thing" again! I checked and Ms.T's vehemently states there is no pepper of any sort that goes into her liquid. I didn't mind what wv2win said, but after a while I just wanted to move on to talking about about "The Throat Hit Chase". I just wanted to clear that one up.

Now about what you wrote...thanks again. I was just so giddy about taking the recommendation of someone else (Jay from GLV) that I had to extend the suggestion. Hey, it worked for me.

When it's all said and done, I comment on threads that I agree with or am interested in. If and when I don't understand, I will ask for clarification. But, I don't feel it necessary to tell someone that they don't understand what they are experiencing or to say I don't feel the same way. For instance, I am not a fan of dual coils but I am not going to post that in a thread called "I love Dual Coils". I would rather start my own thread about why I don't care for them. But hey, someone will probably take issue with that...I am aware, however, the thread spoke of Th and not cinnamon, so maybe some were put off by that.

Thanks for chiming in. What are you vaping?

p.s. I do remember my time in Montreal and Toronto having to deal without having my American Spirits. Yikes!

honestly i woulda never thunkd it. if someone told me id be vaping french freekin toast and loving the TH i woulda laughed. it still is kinda funny. but hey! im cool with it. it might be the cinnamon that does it (maybe the maple), but you really dont taste much cinnamon at all. maybe its just a combo of things making it happen. the flavor is strong for sure with a lingering aftertaste. i like it enough but i feel like it will mellow out with time. the TH is this juices star quality IMO.

the citrus punch on the other hand was great straight away. it has a bite for sure. not mega on the TH but certainly not weak. id call it above average. it is an extraordinary compliment to my beverage of choice, which is IPA. the citrus notes in both bounce off of each other very nicely. if you like tart and sour citrus, you might like this. the TH is certainly enough to keep me coming back for more.

the original tobacco and the 555 unfortunately were not my bag. they both had a strong corn chip taste. its the same corn chip taste ive gotten from other 555s. i was surprised to see that note in the Original Tobacco, but not really that surprised. the TH on both was sufficient, but not mega. its just enough to get me to vape these in an emegency. theyve got decent TH and decent flavor, but not extraordinary in either regard.

...and its the Enigma that got kicked in the balls with buttered rum, not the French Toast. the FT does taste buttery though. its a full-on salty sweet combo. the Enigma also does the salty-sweet thing, with the butter being the salty in both vapes.

Never would I have thunk French Toast would be on your or my list! Was the French Toast the juice who got kicked in the....with buttered rum?

 

[Mr.Mann]

LOL already and I am still reading!!!!!!!

 

[Mr.Mann]

Killer post, DUDE! Hey, I and someone else have recently started threads about pairing drinks and vapes. Interestingly, the other post (not mine) was specifically talking about IPAs. Grace that thread with your suggestions!

You rock!
