The various “cure” flavors

[bombastinator]

i got to like flue cure tobacco flavor. The really stinky stuff.
I’ve been looking for an economy sized bottle factory direct. There seem to be a lot of avoidances though. I’ve found “fire cured” and “cured” but the only “Virginia flue cured” flavors I’m seeing are all hangsen or inwara.

China or Japan. Also they’re NOT cheap.

One would think that if people are extracting Virginia flue cure tobacco for flavoring you’d find some in Virginia. For some reason it seems to need to be shipped to Asia first then back again. It’s weird.

Anyway, if I buy a really expensive flavoring I don’t want to wind up with another “that was awful I’m never touching it again!” Flavoring of which I already have far too many. Most of them attempts to solve this problem.

There’s got to be some sort of base underlying issue for this but I don’t know what it is. Why is flue cure so hard to find? It didn’t used to be.

Am I looking at a “WE ARE BT AND YOU MAY NOT USE OUR FLAVOR (even though it’s not actually ours) BECAUSE WE ARE BT!” issue that can only be avoided by running half way around the world?

Are any of the renamed ones actually any good?

Do I just have to suck it up and pay through the nose for a reimport?

I haven't seen mention of that type of tobacco eliquid since I started vaping. Backwoods Brew use to do a honey nut flue tobacco flavor. I don't even know BB is still in business.

There is also this:
Flue-Cured Virginia Tobacco - eLiquid Flavor

and:
Flue Cured E-Liquid

Not sure about Hangsen but Inawera is Polish

Those both look like the flavor. I’m hoping to get the flavoring rather than premixed juice. Betting those are going to be the hangsen or inwara Virginia flue cure mixed into an ejuice.

huh. I’d always thought Japanese. I wonder how that got into my head.

UPDATE: bought inawera. They also had some shake ‘n vape flavors. Shipping was large. It’s only the 4th and half my monthly vape budget is gone already. Argh.

Maybe too much Vapors (see how I played that!!! )

I do. Double pun opportunities come along rarely and should be treasured.
