What is the origin of the name ry4?

The name just seems out of place with other juices being given proper names such as Vanilla, coffee, chocolate, etc. The name sounds more like it came from a chemistry lab. Anyone know the story behind the name?

i think it came from Runyon (sp) #4 blend

Aah, that makes sense. Is that an American tobacco blend? I'm from Canada and haven't heard of it before.

Not sure of the nationality of it, but the original isnt around anymore. Seems most vendors have their own & they are all different

RY4 Is short for Ruyan #4. Ruyan is a Chinese e-cig , e-cigar and e-pipe mfg., and maybe even the inventor of ecigs? RY4 is just the name of an early popular e-liquid formulation that became a sort of standard. It's described as a combination of tobacco, caramel, and vanilla flavors. Every company under the sun has their own take on it, all of them different.
