Came up with this mix after buying several Hangsen flavors and reading the Bobas clone thread (this is not a Bobas clone).

Hangsen pipe tobacco 10%
Cap Cinn Danish Swirl 3%
FA Maple 3%
Ecx Signature graham cracker 2%
TFA deli bacon 2%
TFA toasted almond 1%
Hangsen coconut 1%
Hangsen cocoa 1%

Been vaping this last few days. The pipe tobacco is the dominating flavor. The other flavors mix well and create a nice back note. This is not an overly sweet vape. The pg/vg is 50/50 with 12.5% nicotine. It is a satisfying vape. At times I feel like I am actually smoking. The 50/50 mix makes a good amount of vaper. I don't think I'll tweak this at all, just make some more.

Has anyone tried the FA Royal? I'm really liking this. 6% in 50/50 7mg base and instant goodness. It's like a very mild pipe mix with light spices and sugar. The description for it gives: 'A very good balanced woody, clean and fresh flavor'. I'm not sure what "woody" even means lol. It leaves a nice sweet after taste that isn't the least bit cloying or artificial. I have no idea what steeping will do, but I'm hoping it doesn't change it too much. If it does, I'll just make it in small batches and vape it up before it can steep.

I'm also still working on the hansen tab blend flavor, trying to dial it in. I'm starting to think I'm going to fall into that group of people that likes it at much higher percentages. I'm at 8 percent at the moment and it seems to be coming alone nicely.

I am stoked that I have three easy recipes that I love.
TFA dry4 10%, with a few drops of brown sugar extra, steep 4 weeks.
TFA American Red, 6%, a few drops of brown sugar extra, steep at least a week.
FA Royal, 6%, shake and vape.

That has to be the most unusual recipe I've seen. I'd love to try it though, but I doubt I'll ever order the bacon or coconut. Would it still be good with out them?

To be honest I think its the Hangsen Pipe tobacco that makes this recipe shine. The other flavors mix into the background and I cant taste them separately. I thought about cutting back the pipe tobacco but I just don't want to because of how it tastes now. Maybe after I've vaped a few bottles I might try playing with it.

For me it tastes like I've sweetened with a mixture of white and brown sugar and nothing else added. Not dead on mind you, but closer than anything else I've tried. The problem is the brown sugar part as it doesn't go with everything, but seems to work well in my tobacco mixes.

I have my problems with sweeteners. I have a huge sweet tooth, but most of the time I'm just wanting to simulate adding white sugar to sweeten and that seems to be the hardest, if not impossible, for me to achieve.

The sweeteners I've used are tfa brown sugar extra, fa sweetener, em, and in some cases tfa maple syrup (where the maple fits the recipe). In some other cases I've tried using flavors like caramel candy, for example, which I do believe I like better than caramel with sweetener added.

They're all good but each has their pros and cons.

I usually go with
TFA RY4 (Double) 9%
TFA Cotton Candy (EM) 3%
but I'll try to add the brown sugar next time and see how it goes with both sweeteners

I'd suggest starting with 2 percent brown sugar extra. Also I should mention that I've seen some posts the say there's a difference in the flavor of tfa brown sugar and tfa brown sugar extra. I've only used the brown sugar extra so I can't comment from experience.
