Natural tobacco being extracted, so we're looking at a natural tobacco extraction... NTE, but this world doesn't need another acronym, so I'll whip the first person I hear using it! lol.
The wording "naturally extracted" is merely meant to distinguish it from the existence of liquids that are "synthetically concocted." It may be stretch to call the extraction "natural," but the important part is that it is natural flavor from ET, or extracted tobacco (TE already exists and is a type of absolute that is sold by Perfumer's Apprentice). Even if there is nothing "naturally" extracted about it, it's meant to contrast the artificial counterpart--it's akin to calling cigarettes analogs and PVs e-cigarettes (which also doesn't make any sense).
I get it, but the term "tobacco" is used in every other liquid and people wonder why their liquid tastes like corn chips--that ain't tobacco nor does it have anything to do with it, but the term "tobacco" (among a host of other artificial flavors bearing the name of their natural stunt double) is used to define some lab generated flavor based off of who knows what. I hate buying "tobacco" and tasting Fritos. (Actually, I kinda like those vapes now. haha. But it ain't tobacco)
Smoke juice (no smoke is produced.) E-Liquid (electronic liquid?) We do have a sub-forum called E-Smoking (electronic smoking sounds very hazardous.) Mod (most people don't modify their PVs.) Analog (as opposed to what? Digital vapor?) E-Cigarette (it's not an electronic cigarette, it's a battery in a metal tube with an atomizing device that produces vapor.)
As an aside, most NET vendors will tell you that their 0 mg nic (if they will even sell it as such) is more like 2 mg. That is because (as Dvap referenced) in their extraction, some nic tags along. That is not "targeted," or "isolated," but I can imagine that if nic, an alkaloid, comes along for the ride, that maybe some minor alkaloids do too. Of course, 5% of 2 mg is what, like 0.1 mg? I guess that would literally be next to nothing (and I would never call that minute amount of possible alkaloids by the acronym for which this thread is based).
