DIY Tobacco Recipes

I've tried the RY4 DoubLE Good, very nice from the start, but down the % on the caramel and Bavarian if you dont like it to sweet, almost finished with my 100ml after 2 weeks, my opinion is that the

Thanks man, will give it a try tonight. Was "caramel" a mistake? The recipe calls for marshmallow ;)

Ah good to know. You think it will be a good cigarette replacement for new vapers still wanting that taste?
 
In my opinion yes, but as you know taste is so subjective. For example my son is a smoker and he cant stand any of the tobacco mixes I make. Mind you he must still taste this mix.
Will let you know what he thinks after he has tried it as well.
 
@Andre I managed to get my son to try it out and he reckons "no it's k@k" :eek:
Lol.

It's a different texture to actual smoke.

I have found vaping texture is more like smoking a Bong (hubbly or what the kids are calling it nowadays). So a full on smoker needs to get past that to understand.

@rogue zombie he has and probably still does the bong thing.
None the less he has managed to stop smoking (on and off) vaping fruit mixtures which he quite enjoys.
I don't know what it is with the tobacco that he finds so terrible, especially as a smoker.
There was one that he didn't find so offensive, it was the same one that got me off the smokes and I still vape it.
Coumarin Pipe by Vape Elixer.
Maybe he likes the sweet tobacco then???

Oh I see.

Well in the beginning I would say try everything and stick to what works... for awhile.

For me it was RY4'S, before I started being able to handle something else.

Even rubbish Ry4s were better to me than other flavours.

I was so disappointed with this one :( I was sceptical about buying Burley as it's not a favourite of mine, but I love(d) everything from HIC so I went with it.

I barely managed to finish one tankful in my griffin and tossed the rest - just too bitter for me. But this is how we learn :p

Lol, yes let him vape what works for him. But if he does not like Bora Bora.....we shall have to have a serious talk with him.

The VG that I am using from Clyrolinx is very sweet. Maybe that's why I don't get that much bitter taste.
I have even bought Bitter Wizard to try on some other vapes that I don't want the sweetness.

Absolutely, only way to learn. I have come to realise I like cigar and black tobacco much more than traditional brown pipe tobacco, but I still try many tobaccos - one never knows.
 
have you tried FA Cigar Passion yet. I just got it in and haven't tried it in a mix yet.
Stand alone in a little 1% sampler it was quite nice.
 
Just a quick update on the Hell on Wheels series. Last night, day 1 after mixing, I aired out the bottles a bit and tasted a drop from each on my finger. Was very pleased with it. Tonight, I had a few drops of each in a Cyclone. Will add my notes thus far in a different color

Right, I let the remaining two steep a bit longer, due to the fruits and creams in them. After a 12 daqy steep, this what I have on Hell on Wheels - Bohannon's Bride:

Came out a little different than planned, but still fits the theme really well. A dry, mild, and very little smokey pipe tobacco. Almost more on the woody side than smokey. I guess more of a brownish pipe tobacco, than a black one, as @Andre might say. Not as dark as planned, but still dark enough to be melancholic. The fruits in there seems like a "bitter sweet" memory. Notes of sweet fresh fruit, blended with "stale" fruit. Best description I can do on this. Like a flower that has wilted, but still gives both smells, if that makes any sense. Just enough cream notes to make you feel like you're listening to a sad country song and missing someone you don't know :oops:

I have a feeling both tobacco and non-tobacco lovers would like this one.

Now on to *****'s Nipple:

Also came out a whee bit different than planned, but perfect! A very light, mild and creamy tobacco, with subtle fruit hints. Almost like bumming one off a cat-house lady while suckling at her bosom :D
I have a feeling the ladies will also like this one.

Now to get my brain in gear, and maybe some new concentrates to do a Wyatt Earp / Doc Holiday duet, and of course, Billy the Kid. :D

I have tried it in Montecristo No 2. Tasted last night and this morning. Very different to my usual fare, but I like it and will mix again. Very intense cigar is FA Cigar Passion - for my next mix I shall lower it to 1.0% and up the FA Tiramisu from 0.5 % to 0.75 % (the recipe wants 1.0 % Tiramisu).
 
@Andre this is the one I was steeping that borrows from Borra.

I'm very happy with it.

DaVinci

INW Gold Ducat 2%
FA Perique Black 1%
FA Fresh Cream 1%
FA Vienna Cream 1%
FA Vanilla (any) 1%

70VG
2 week steep

So Gold Ducat is a wet dark pipe tobacco with a slight Dark Chocolate aftertaste. It's amazing, but I added the Perique for a more "smokey" dry feel. And it works nicely.

The Perique also provides a decent throat hit, so this will be more of a 'drinking' companion juice for me. Up the creams if you want less throat hit.

Then HICs Borra Borra taught me that, what I consider a lot of creams, actually smoothen and enrich tobaccos without turning anything into pudding. Hence the rest of this recipe. The Vienna and Vanilla enrich the dominant flavour - Gold Ducat - nicely.

The result is a nice dark pipe tobacco, with a smoky finish and the dark chocolate aftertaste. It's a keeper for me.
I made @rogue zombie's Da Vinci on 2 July 2016. Cracked it open this morning. Could wait no longer.

Stunning! When you open a pouch of fresh real pipe tobacco you see those still moist golden strands with some black strands intertwined. And that smell of sweet fresh tobacco is always oh so heavenly. That is Da Vinci - fresh golden with some black strands in taste with that real tobacco heavenly aroma. I get a rich, slightly honeyed, moist, golden pipe tobacco. The black strands are provided by Perique - the perfect boldness and edginess with real pipe smoky taste to balance Gold Ducat. Throat hit suits me to a T.

Highly recommended.

Thank you for the feedback, I was wondering what others would think of it. The few vaping friends I have, don't like tobaccos, and HRH hates them, so I was wondering.

The Gold Ducat is doing the hard work there - it's an impressive flavour. But this is my favourite version of it. I believe the rest makes it better.

I just love his Van Gogh. Will have to try this too.

This one was posted by @Andre from here. I did not have all the ingredients and not a fan of caramel in e-juice, let alone tobacco. So I subbed and tweaked a few things. It's a nice deep, rich dark tobacco, with a creamy undertone.Think dark chocolate double decked with milk chocolate. Not a chocolate taste, but the same idea. Deep, rich and dark, paired with smooth and creamy to give a slightly dry vape thanks to the Black Fire from FA. For less dry and smokey, leave out the Black Fire.

@Viper_SA ,all I can say is THANK YOU, made this two weeks ago and took a test drive on my Reo and WOW, this is one super nice tobacco juice. I am going to let it rest for another two weeks, I think it will even get better. Remind me of the days when I used to smoke Gold Dollar Blue.
