Juice Pairing

[johan]

Tried some e-juice & drink pairing yesterday:

The best by far with beer: VM Banana Cream
Battled with red wine, but in the end the VM Chock Mint came out tops with Merlot as well as Cabernet Frank.
With the Cognac, the only juice I could vape with was RY4 - but I think a much stronger tobacco flavour will suit Cognac better or even a dark roasted coffee flavour?

Anyone out there played with food / drink e-juice pairing?

@Tom which type of beers; dunkel, hefe weisen etc? I found that on local light (water with a beer taste) SA beers the fruity juices were great but not with real beer

it was nice Pils and a few Koelsch, all relatively strong beers. The Cafe de Paris juice was really a great match, the cigar with the added bitter almond aroma is ideal for beers. Will give more feedback when I wake up from the coma on Friday (its carnival here, and Thursday is the first crazy day )

Thanks @Tom, this starts to make sense to me and please enjoy a Swarzbier on my behalf.

Not just alcohol but pairing with food as well

Tasting various cognacs now, definitely need some extra strong tobacco, any suggestions?

With "boere" cognac (20 year old brandy) a black coffee flavour tastes good

I vote @Matthee as the expert on tobacco flavours. I havent tried enough to find the gems.
However, to my surprise i am enjoying the Liqua Cuban Cigar Tobacco I bought a while ago. Not a fan of liqua generally, but like this tobacco. Its quite strong

Thanks @Silver 1 I will give it a try. @Matthee we need your assistance here re strong tobacco flavour suggestions.

I couldn't deal with the Liqua Cuban. I remixed it. Got some from a friend 18mg so added 30 PG 70VG no nic 1:1 to get it down to 9mg and up the VG a bit, added a few drops of caramel concentrate and drop of menthol. Its smoothing out quite nicely.

I've discovered I'm not a fan of strong tobacco's. A nice coffee with some HHV Heavenly Tobacco on a dripper is .....dare I say it......... heaven.

Organic tobacco from Goodejuice is probably the strongest I've tasted, great with Cognac.

Thanks for this info @Matthee - I will definitely get hold of some and give it a go. I assume there is no local agents for Goodjuice?

No, their Patriot is also good, but sweeter.

 

[johan]

@Matthee for my personal taste I don't like something sweet with cognac, with a good beer something sweeter should be nice.

 

[Andre]

From Heather Heavenly Vapes my favourites are Huntsman and Dark Horse, both dry/grassy tobaccos, but not dark.

 

[johan]

Thanks @Matthee

Tried a lot of sweet/semi-sweet juices with beer from different suppliers and VM's Banana Cream still come out tops for my personal taste (I had to increase the nic up to +/- 2% or 20mg however after beer #7).

A good Double Chocolate Stout still needs a pairing juice however, haven't found one yet?

VM Guevara and a cuppa coffee.. Match made in heaven.. The perfect way to start and end the day

 

[johan]

Thanks for that, I'm dr00ling already.

Yes, really - now you are twisting the knife.
