Thanks @vicTor , never thought I would long for a tobacco taste again, I will have a look. Maybe a new way to get more out of vaping, and still enjoy it. May have to start looking at a MTL tank, will have to see.

Thanks @Andre , will investigate, strange how over time our tastebuds start to change as we progress in our vaping journey. Started on menthol only, then desserts, then fruit big time which I couldn't stomach when I started and now a longing for a pipe and tobacco flavours. May have to talk to @Amir regarding his Kamry, I have a old one enroute for investigation, may also want to build my own, or convert one of my Dads old pipes for nostalgic reasons. I inherited all of them.
An easier way might be to get the just released Rodeo hardshot from Mr Hardwick. @Rude Rudi has reviewed it here. Mine will be mixed tonight.
Was busy reading it just now, may be worth a try as an easy start, and then to go ballistic from there, eish!, the hole is deep!!
It is now 2:33 in the morning and I read the whole thread, all 38 pages. Thanks to everyone's contributions I may have a new route with regards to diy. Thank you again, some of these recipies look great, and the insight is mind boggling.
So after careful consideration of the recipies, I chose 3 that will need the least amount of concentrates to be bought, but will give me a good spread to test and see if I like tobaccos as a vape. Will try more complex ones a bit later:
Hipster coffee by Limedrive https://alltheflavors.com/recipes/61433 - @Rude Rudi mixed it.
Paul's RY4 by @Paul33 https://www.ecigssa.co.za/diy-tobacco-recipes.t25083/page-37#post-627112
Cherry Almond Cigar by @GregF https://www.ecigssa.co.za/diy-tobacco-recipes.t25083/page-35#post-614005
Any feedback before I order the concentrates will be greatly appreciated.

Hi @Room Fogger very nice choices, in fact Paul's RY4 is my ADV, simple but delicious (needs a month steep though)
It's a good choice with only one tobacco ingredient and that FLV cured is quite versatile.

Thanks to all for the feedback, I will then be getting some RY4, Gold Ducat, and the Cured tobacco. If this hits the taste buds then the Rum and maple and cherry tobacco will follow, with a pipe in the pipeline and that damm vanilla cigar that I am suddenly missing. Thanks @vicTor @Paul33 and @GregF and @Andre for the advice so far. Now to order!
Hi guys,
This whole DIY has me going the whole day. I can't afford the courier cost everytime and decided I'm going to get the kit and do it myself.
So I kinda took Paul's RY4 mix and added in maple. Not sure if this is going to work. Can you please check and let me know? I know it says you are missing ingredients, but I already found them on a suppliers site. Just need the recipe to mix.

Hi @Braki , the maple syrup % looks a bit high, average seems to be about 3%, but on Reddit they talk about between 0.25 and 0.5% in mixes. rather start low and work up, and do 10 ml mixes as testers, you tend to throw less away that way. @Paul33 can comment on the rest, not sure if you used it exactly that way. Maybe one of the other tobacco gurus can assist as well.Hi guys,

I agree with @Room Fogger. 6% Maple is very high.Hi guys,

I've gone through that document about 3 times today and marked it with stickey notes and a highlighter
. I failed chemistry in school. So my mixes will be like exploding probably 
If you get vape juice to explode I'll be very impressed and twice as confusedI've gone through that document about 3 times today and marked it with stickey notes and a highlighter
If you want a Maple explosion in your mouth then add 6% FA Maple.I've gone through that document about 3 times today and marked it with stickey notes and a highlighter
I'm going to decrease the maple to 3% and try. Going the 10ml tester route and see what happens.
Want a balance between the maple and the smokey taste.

It will feel that way when you start, check and search for tobacco recipies that contain maple syrup on e-liquid recipies, look at how much of the maple syrup they use, ignore the other ingredients for now, and then start with less than the average.I've gone through that document about 3 times today and marked it with stickey notes and a highlighter
It will give you a feel for it, and if the tester is vapable you can decide to go higher or lower. Otherwise, start with @Paul33 recipy as is, try it and then search for others to give you a better profile. At least from what I have heard you will have a great juice to vape, I am hoping to mix it exactly as is this weekend, as I am also trying out tobacco vapes for the first time as well.
hi @Braki
may I ask the reason for wanting to add the maple ?
I would suggest maybe sticking to PaulsRY4 recipe as is, initially
I don't think you are going to find a balance, you are going to get maple syrup. If you want it as an accompanying note, not the main flavour you will have to start lower than 3, most definitely. On a 13 % flavour recipy with 9 concentrates it is used at 2 %, this one is only about 7 % total, so 0.5 to 1% would be a better starting place, and even then it may overpower.
I’ve never used FA maple syrup so I can’t comment but my theory is “everything is worth a try at least once”. The % does seem a bit high though.
Maybe start at 1% and see what it does to the recipe.
Ok so the flavors are very concentrated then so even starting with a 0.5% will work.
I'm trying to get the real rum and maple taste from pipe smoking mixes. It's my dad's and husband's favorite. So I kinda want to surprise them.
Intentionally getting my dad to stop smoking as well.
I've researched for rum and maple recipes but there aren't many. Or I'm doing the search wrong.
