INW Gold Ducat - 4%

Nice 'n simple

Optional - INW Cherry 0.5 (any higher and it tastes like cough syrup)
Optional 1% Shisha Vanilla

Ah, thank you. Saw a similar recipe here, but using TFA Vanilla Swirl in stead of Shisha Vanilla. Certainly on my to mix list now that we have INW Gold Ducat available locally from @YeOldeOke here. And they stock the INW Cherry.

 

[rogue zombie]

I like INW Gold Ducat at 3%.

That's my submission for now as I am still tweaking a few.

Ooh looks nice.. 0.6 cherry though.. living dangerously!

My DIY Tobacco Journey started off at a most successful sprint with HIC's Bora Bora White, which I reported on here.

The next two, which I mixed and have tasted, are not worth reporting on, unfortunately.

It was with trepidation that I decided to mix Frogs Perique & Dark Vapour Tobacco recipe as some say FA Perique and FA Dark Vapure are extremely harsh and unvapeable, even at 1.0 %. And this recipe has it at higher percentages.

Mixed it on 2 June 2016 and had my first taste this evening, 27 June 2016. Thus, just more than three weeks of steeping/curing.

I am more than pleasantly surprised. For sure a very bold tobacco, but not harsh at all - maybe the work of FA MTS Vape Wizard. Black tobacco - strong, dark and somewhat biting, but also creamy, earthy and smoky with some cocoa notes. Probably not an all day vape, but only for those special occasions. I shall certainly have it in my arsenal.
EDIT on 30 June 2016: Being vaping this all week. Getting smoother and mellower every day. An ADV for sure.

Here is the recipe:

Analux

EDIT: Nowadays I add 0.5 % FA Black Fire and 0.5 % INW Cuban Cigar (Absolute Tobacco). And decreased FA MTS Vape Wizard to 0.5 %. For real luxury I add 15 % of El Toro Cigarillos, which is a NET tobacco.

 

[Viper_SA]

@Andre I love Perique Black and Dark Vapure. Thanks for this. I'll probably chuck some Black Smoke in it as well, just for good measure. A flavor I think will be well worth having is FW Ankara tobacco. Really love the smell of it. Also very "spicy/herby"

Wow. So maybe something like El Torro Cigarello? That stuff kicked my ass, but I loved it with a Whisky or similar.

Some similarities, but this one is a bit sweeter, more aromatic and bolder! Perfect with a Whiskey or similar.

 

[Andre]

Here's one that forms the basis for one of my upcoming releases, hopefully it doesn't reach the market before I get to it

INW Morning Rain Tobacco- 3%
FA Fig Fresh - 3%
FA Fuji - 0.5%

It's a light, mild tobacco with a touch of mint and a lighter touch of menthol, paired with some nice fresh fruit.

Thank you. Looks very interesting. Now we need to get a vendor to stock INW Morning Rain. Glad tobacco will be getting some attention in the local juice market.

 

[Viper_SA]

Funny thing @Andre , @rogue zombie , I always found Dark Vapure and Perique Blwck to remind me more of a dark european pipe tobacco, not cigar, but then again, only cigars I've ever had were King Edward and Ritmeester Moods, lol. Hate cherry cigars with a passion. Smells good when someone else smokes them, but I cant stand the taste. FA Latakia is also a nice tobacco for me. Glory is way different, but I still enjoy it. Totally opposite in the spectrum. More like a refined 555 or DK from TFA. Also like 7 Leaves. Shade and Storm, not my favorites. Virginia I find very sweet and not like I'd hoped. I see INW almost has a counter part for every FA tobacco. FW Coumarin pipe, skip. Way too weak for my taste. I like smoky, peaty single malts that most of my friends hate, like Lagavullin and Lophraig.

Marvellous winner winner thread @Andre
Am watching this with much interest
Thank you

The only tobacco's I do are non commercial NET's that are home extracted. Too many of those store bought have a chemical aftertaste to me.

Top of my NET's list are the Latakia pipe tobacco's that I mix the 100% VG extractions at 25%-50% with 100% VG depending on the tobacco used. You can start lower at 10%-15% and work up to your personal tastes though (I like them in-your-face).

A couple worth trying if you get into extracting NET's (VG extractions done right requires around $300-$400 in equipment), or know someone who will extract them for you AND if you like the smoky, peppery, earthy, leathery flavor of Latakia in a lighter blend to start is Sutliff Voodoo Queen and Peter Stokkebye 17 English Luxury.

@Spydro
Just like to know if you can point us to a website or have like a nice detailed tutorial for doing NETS?
and also do you find your wick and coil last not as long when using NETS?

Yes, of course you are right. It is not a cigar, but neither a pipe tobacco as we know the mostly brown tobaccos locally and the little bit of pipe that I did smoke. I shall call it black tobacco. Love the taste. See the real Black Perique tobacco is processed and fermented and is earthy, sharp and strong - like that recipe.

I was a NET prophet for most of my vaping life. Only vaped NET tobaccos. Started with Heather's Heavenly Vapes, some from naturally-extracted-tabaccos.com and still vape El Toro Cigarillos from House of Liquid and Tarks Select Reserve Matador. None of the tobacco flavoured juices or tobacco concentrates were to my liking. Until I started DIY again about 3 months ago. The tobacco concentrates have certainly improved vastly and I have mixed two now that can stand up to NETs in all respects imho.

I've seen hinted at that FA and INW tobacco range are "targeting" for a lack of a better term, the NET market.

With the authentic taste of those I have tested, I believe it. And because they are used in small percentages, personally, I don't feel the need to NET (to save money).

Also, making 6mg strong tobacco juices, and the liquid is so light, it's easy on the coil and wick.

Here on ECF is a whole sub-forum on liquid extraction from tobacco. Have fun.

I could write up a method or two, but there is no need. There are many methods for doing NET's yourself, and just doing some simple searches on line will find you all the information you could possibly want on doing them with any of the methods used. The education is worth the effort to find which method you will decide to settle on.

IE for starters... https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=extracting+tobacco+NET's

NET's do gunk up coils/wicks faster. How fast depends on a lot of different factors. But the cleaner the extract (by using the right vacuum and filter sets equipment) the less they gunk coils. PG extracts are easier to filter, can even be done without vacuum if you have plenty of time on your hands and quality filter sets to do them in (some even get by just using coffee filters several times, but that's cave man stuff and might taste like a caveman long dead would smell). They'll gunk faster than vacuumed but may get you through a couple of days of constant use instead of the far more advanced amount of time I can get by with vacuumed 100% VG (but I also don't vape NET's constantly, they are quiet time treat vapes same as some of my pipe smoking was). You'll also have to do the long aging process before they are the best they can be that can be as long as 2-3 months the old fashioned ways (there are shortcuts, same as with NEF's).

The coils themselves can be dry burned to renew them easy enough, and just rewicked. And you will want to pit stop your atty itself on a regular basis.

I have not used any INW tobacco flavours yet. Gold Ducat on its way. @method1 and @rogue zombie like it. See recipes earlier in the thread. I have tried some FA ones, which I like. In the Bora Bora recipe above a combination of 7 Leaves Ultimate, Burley and Cuban Supreme is used. In the other recipe Perique Black and Dark Vapure is used.

 

[Jono90]

thanks everyone for all the advise.
i dont know if its just me. But im a huge fan of Tobacco flavours.
i found the switch to vaping extremely easy when i vaped Tobacco flavours. (maybe a mental thing)
for me i was a smoker that liked smoking alot and the finer tones of a just light cig or a freshly opened pack and when you didnt have one for awhile,etc
and personally i did try dessert and fruit flavour and i found i berry flavour i enjoyed but then a friend ruined it for me and the 600mls is growing whiskers lol but for me they would always sit.and i go back to tobacco.
And now im at a year of vaping and vape tobacco only and my nicotine is down to 2mg, i found myself wanting less and less throat hit and more cloud and flavour

Gratz on the year milestone. The "growing whiskers" brought on a smile.
Down to 2mg soon to be 0mg, then a card carrying flavor chaser and a cloud chaser. You don't need clouds though, just flavor rich vapor.
