Care to share this recipe? You guys have really described DK-TAB to a T. The TPA DK-TAB flavoring smells disgusting. I just will not use it. But this was also the flavor that got me off of cigarettes (before my body finally had had enough of PG), and I'm still trying to find a vendor that sells a decent one in a VG base (%10 or less PG). If I could find a good DIY recipe for it (that doesn't stink), maybe I'd reluctantly try my lousy hand
facepalm at DIY again, but I'm posting here, rather than on the DIY sub-forum, because it'd be cool to find one that's already made, especially for nostalgia's sake. And DK-TAB and DK-tobacco are not the same flavor.

Thanks, BeckyB! I luckily was able to edit my post above. DK Tobacco and DK-Tab are not the same thing? Cool.
DK-Tobacco tastes just like dirt. Yes, I have tasted my fair share of dirt. When playing Truth Or Dare, if you choose Dare and don't complete the task at hand (I'm not a streaker), eating a bit of dirt has been the consequence. Always set the guidelines in advance when playing that game

Okay, I just called The Perfumer's Apprentice and got the scoop on their DK Tobacco Base Flavor. It goes like this: TPA received an unnamed formula (just the bare-bones formula) some time ago from an eliquid wholesaler. TPA had no idea what this formula was originally, nor did they care. They were just fulfilling a customers wish. As far as TPA is concerned, DK-Tab is Dekang Tobacco, but they have no knowledge of whether or not that original formula they received had anything to do with Dekang or DK-Tab as a flavor. What I am told is that the customer (wholesaler) asked TPA to carry that flavor and when TPA asked what the name of it should be, the customer responded with DK Tobacco. Why DK? TPA does not know nor does it matter, they used the name that was given to them. TPA makes no claims or associations of DK Tobacco Base Flavor as having any connection to Dekang or DK-Tab.
I've talked to Linda from TPA a couple of times, and she is very friendly and helpful. Thanks for doing the extra legwork, Mr. Mann! What she is selling as that flavor is simply offensive to the nose, no getting around it. My favorite DK-TAB was from Good Prophets before they changed the formulation, or something. I am still on the hunt for one in VG. And a long hunt is has been...
So there is still a DK-Tab concentrate available elsewhere other than TPA? And not just Dekang premade juices? Aside from TPA, I think I can safely say that DK at least stands for Dekang (duh), but I don't know necessarily if all juices that are specifically called DK-Tab are in fact Dekang. I probably won't ever know. It seems that DK-Tab is a flavor that either is or is supposed to be Dekang like.
This may seem too simple for most, but I just couldn't wrap my head around it.
I was kind of hoping this would be a flavor inspired by Donky Kong & TAB soda...

From most accounts, I think it tastes like those two things were put in a blender and garnished with corn chips and Pine Sol.
Well, I've had the DK-TAB and the DK-Tobacco from Health Cabin, way back in the day. Their TAB is the only juice of theirs I'd like some US company to nail. But with Huntsman and Tobacco Haze, I'm not too broken up about it. It's just that nostalgia thing for what got me to switch, I guess. It is pretty darn tasty, too. You're on your own little nostalgia trip with the Donkey Kong and Tab soda, EvilRubberDuck. My big sis passed down her Atari to me. It's broken now. I miss Pong, too!

Awesome! I love it when flavors work because so often the best thing about juices are the descriptions. Maybe Becky and Randy may like theirs? Maybe that's what y'all are looking for? Here's to nostalgia.
Oh, sweet! I am buying it NOW!! Thank you for the recommendation, Pamawoman; and thank the always excellent Mr. Mann, with his natural boundless curiosity, for starting up this thread
! I'm stoked!

Good times! Sweet. I can't wait to hear, Becky! BTW, I love Haze and Huntsman too, so maybe I'll like...nah, just happy you found a good option.
I had some DK TAB from MadVapes (the Chinese version) early on. It was great tasting to me. Then I smelt it.
I suspect that DK TAB has a good dose of Acetyl Pyrazine in it.
Perfumers Apprentice - Acetyl Pyrazine 5% (PG)
I've got some of this that I mix with other...much less than a drop per milliliter.
