No, no
tobacco absolute. And two years ago when I began Tasty Vapor, I began by trying to use
tobacco absolute. The only thing I could find was a Bulgarian Tobacco Absolute, which had a very "green" almost hay like "quality" to it and I quickly stopped using it. It just wasn't what I would want to vape, so I wouldn't expect anybody else would either.
The fact that other manufacturers were using a small portion of tobacco absolute and then TONS of food additives trying to mimic the flavor, well, that's pretty much what your tasting when you pick up a tobacco flavor from everybody else.
I thought it might be worth doing, to make a maceration from actual tobacco. The problem was, finding a blender that could do a Virginia/Burley/Oriental blend that DIDN'T have all the chemical crap added in their to add flavor, promote even burning, etc.
After browsing SCADS of companies, I found them!
Our maceration process has been the base of our tobacco liquids ever since.
