Been messing around w/ making my own tobacco/espresso flavor ... you know, kinda like the old JC TN cured + JC expresso mix (which I think lots of folks like, anyway I've seen it mentioned a couple times).
So I got some TFA cubano, smooth tobacco flavor, and black honey. They're all awesome, and I'm still looking for a good combination. But generally speaking, I figure it's hard to go wrong with the three of them (or really - any two ... although the smooth doesn't have a lot of its own flavor).
But I was disappointed by the TFA espresso. It's just not very strong. I could probably mix it in at 25% and barely taste it. Nothing like the JC espresso that I was used to.
So-o I searched this forum and gave up after a couple of pages ... might be that there aren't a lotta folks who want a good killer espresso like me.
On a lark, I decided to try VZ (vaporzone). WOW. That's all I can say. I'm thinking of perhaps using either TFA cubano or TFA black honey alone w/ the VZ espresso (plus maybe some TFA smooth). Right now, I'm doing all four together and it's just nifty.
(I don't have a recipie yet, but I started with 50% all-VB base, and then equal amounts of TFA, black honey, cubano, and smooth. I've been dripping in the VZ espresso, because my batch was only 6ml.)
Somehow the VZ espresso and the TFA cubano remind me of sipping espresso and smoking a Cuban cigar on a Miami beach ... while listening to good Cuban latin jazz ensemble. Ya know what I mean?
Warning - the VZ espresso is NOT sweet. It's quite harsh, and they tell you to use no more than 2.6%. I've probably doubled that so far, while I've been fiddling. But I'm not sorry!
