I might be able to add a bit to question #2. It's a video from a recent thread, here: Question about WTA's

The thread contains a discussion about Aroma's tobacco selection. I don't know if Ethan has ever revealed where he sources his tobacco from or what kind of tobacco he uses.


Awesome! I am not certain if it was said or not (my speakers are pretty bad), but did he say what kind of tobacco strain it was?

    I had a question for anyone that might know the answer. If Jerry from aroma came here and talked about wta in general then would it be considered promoting his product and in turn would he get in trouble? The reason I ask is that I think that he would be willing to help answer some questions as long as he didn't need to divulge trade secrets. He has been pretty open in the past about discussing it.

    Yeah that'd be good but his forum is right over --------------> there too.

    I don't think I'm understanding your question completely, but I can tell you this. When I saw that little ramekin of pure and deadly nicotine and TA at Jerry's lab I asked "Now what?" he said he had to dilute it and titrate it to whatever strength necessary (what constitutes necessary I don't really know) and that various batches had to be customized and tweaked because the TAs in various blends and batches of tobacco varied. Labor intensive and time consuming.

    My question is similar to yours. "Now what?" I guess this type of question isn't really to be asked here since this is out-of-bounds for one vendor and impossible for another. I was just curious, but in all actuality, this is probably where it starts to get real wonky! To be honest, I was more just reachin' 'cause the biggest questions (aside from people's orders) that were asked here have been clarified. There has been a lot of light shed on WTA in general and nobody is messing with levels of the natural spread and it is not magical that the same amount of alkaloids are in different nic percentages.

    D'uh! I didn't even think about what type of question it was to pose to a vendor about what type of tobacco he uses for his WTA extraction. That is not to be divulged as far as I can tell. However, maybe Dvap can say what type of tobacco he...ah, never mind. It matters not.

    I am trying to keep the conversation going and it's not even natural at this point. :facepalm:

    In this land of RBA/genesis attys with everyone vaping 6 mg and 12 mg juices (12 mg can be considered high for that type of atty), I felt proud in that moment to think of myself as a mutant with my 32 mg juice (low TB level, LOL). :laugh:

    Hell, nowadays I can barely give away 18 mg juice and above! :tumble:

    Now you Mr Mann, are a multidimensional, multifaceted mutant at any level, And to show you how sincerely I mean that, I'll gladly accept your 18 mg and above!

    hahaha! I had a lot of juice in the classies that I practically paid someone to take off my hands! Why 'o why did I do that? :confused: I had no biters with over 200 mL premium juice for $40 (all 24 mg and over.) I will never sell juice again, it's no reason--better to PIF/trade.

    I actually don't think one of them would have any problem telling you.

    I am not too curious about anything more now than how WTA make me feel (shout out to AaronY, ;)). If it does or doesn't do much for me, more info regarding its tobacco source is not going to make it different--I more wondered if it had been posted already. If it hasn't yet been revealed, no need to change course now.

    Now, if either vendor or chemist (ahem) could get me some of that WTA-exclusivity (LOL) at the "30 mg WTA: Seriously potent stuff" level, then I'd be happy and would get some good usage out of my new memory foam! hahahahaha

    Dvap, I have a few questions about the testing.
    Are there valid test to determine the various levels of WTA in it's various forms?
    Are there labs that you know of that perform these tests and will publicly disclose the results?
    Can someone like myself have these tests conducted?
    How far in the future will the results of a test be valid for?
    What is the frequency that random samples be obtained to consider the testing current?
    Are the results of self-testing due any weight?

    Cheap shot? I took that as a compliment! You obviously have self image issues because you need nicotine.

    I have a tremendous respect for Dvap, always have. Which is why I was really disappointed to read this, "while Ethan might be catering to the mutants who would otherwise be taking nicotine on an IV drip." I felt it was a cheap shot at his customers, me being one, and truthfully, I expected better.

    In that light, I don't see myself as being rude, but rather reacting to inappropriate. I just read that wasn't your intent Dvap, tho I don't understand how else that would be taken. Perhaps if I understood a different reason for phrasing it that way, I might feel differently.

    On another note however, what is disrespectful to everyone, is you Jerry, scolding me, on a forum you know is a violation for you to be posting in. Please don't use me as an excuse to do so. You may not scold me anywhere.

    You had to much juice to keep in the house with the baby, of course.

    People old enough to remember the Toxic Avenger movies and TMNT react differently to the word "mutant" than do people who grew up with X-Men. :D

    I actually like both. I'm mostly an X-Men fan though. The movies were ok but I like the comics too.
