Wait... isn't is supposed to?
Taste like a cigarette? I tasted cigarettes for nearly 50 years. Don't want to be reminded of them when I vape and don't want to smell them. But that's just me. I'm sure there are lots of vapers who smoked because they liked the taste and tobacco flavored juices really work for them.

Ah gotcha. What other NT offerings have you tried?

Favorite now is GCD. Loving PBC right now, almost right out of the mail, but I think it will settle down to less roasted peanut and more cookie as time passes. I like roasted peanut, though, so it's all good. Absolutely love QoH. Iffy about CB. I'm getting too much brulee and not so much creme and no orange at all. (I make my creme brulee with grand marnier, but some chefs use Amaretto.) But mixed with CLS it's fairly good. Might drop some Frenilla in that mix to pump up the custard. I like Doodle, but I like GCD better.

I really like the idea of adding orange to CB for a short run.

Not yet. Still tastes like a cigarette. :unsure:

She may or may not come around for you personally - taste really is subjective... that said, it's been known to change or evolve over time. I consider it quite a compliment that you say it tastes like a cigarette though... I know a few vendors who would jump around screaming like they won the lottery to hear those words. LMAO

I was wondering if I could put some orange zest in the bottle and strain it out after a few hours. I have a sample of orange cream steeping. If it actually tastes like orange cream I might try a mixture in a 5ml bottle to see what I get. When you bring that truckload of liquid to steep in my empty nest I'll make you some of my cream brulee.

I'll pimp your Virus whenever anyone asks for a good tobacco flavor. Definitely tastes like a cigarette to me. A smooth cigarette.

OT: When I started smoking cigarettes cost 29 cents, 35 from the machine in the dorm. A carton was $2.29. And doctors told us that menthol cigarettes were good for us. I smoked Newports, probably because I didn't like the taste of tobacco.

I think my taste buds must be *seriously* broken because I just tried The Virus for the first time just to see what it would be like in this stage at 9 days old, and to ME, it tastes like coffee.

Nope, not broken... that's the Virus... ever changing, ever evolving. ;)

The Virus is a little like this spring weather...if you don't like it now, just give it a minute and it's sure to change.
I think I've liked all of the virus morphings though..
