in which we review Santo Domingo, the second in a series of four Rope Cut tobacco flavours.

Crewella: I've managed to open this one all by myself! :D Had a sniff, it does smell interesting!

Simon: Santo Domingo 'an extravagant tobacco blend infused with cinnamon and coconut' Lets hope this one lives up to the 'extravagant tobacco blend' claim. lol, I don't think I can vape mediocre for another day! ;)

Crewella: You can taste more tobacco than with the Arcadia, and I can taste the coconut. Not sure if I can taste cinnamon, but there's a 'kick' to it that might be that. Overall I like it, there's an earthy taste in there somewhere ............. something between leaf litter and damp dog ........... but I like it. :D

Simon: I don't know what 'leaf litter' is but I know what a damp dog is. I think that might put our readers off! :19:

Crewella: It has a much more 'grown up' flavour.

Simon: It doesn't taste like RY4 toffee pops. What kind of tobacco is this, would you say? .... it's not like fags.

Crewella: I can't really see the tobacco as a pipe or cigar though? More of a rolling baccy than a packet ciggie?

Simon: I think it might be burly of some description, that's what I used to roll myself. I like the coconut, it's the right amount... and it's kind of spicy.... it's not in your face cinnamon, it's just like that's part of the tobacco. :)

Crewella: Yep, the coconut's perfect and underpins the whole flavour. I'm much more enamored of this than the Arcadia. It's a much more definite taste, much more interesting.

Simon: Defo much more interesting and flavoursome, there's more layers to explore too... compared to some RY4 double chucked in a bottle. ;)

Crewella: It leaves a much more definable flavour after you've vaped it too ............. a much nicer lingering aftertaste. :drool:

Simon: yeah, it does linger.... I'm drinking tea and it does feel a bit like I've been smoking, got a bit of that aftertaste in my mouth.

(I hate that Cranberries song, get it out of my head!, Si)

Crewella: It's a sort of earthy/woody/leathery note? I think it's the way the tobacco mixes with the coconut ........... it's almost a mustiness ........ but I'm liking it.

Simon: I think I would recommend this to a new vaper just coming off rollies, that's when I first tried it and I enjoyed it then. It's like a rolly with some spicy coconut... which is better than rollies.

Crewella: That makes sense, I agree. I'm going to do the same with this one and take it to work tomorrow.

Simon: Sounds like a plan... this one certainly isn't boring.

Crewella: The Arcadia was fine, got me through the day pleasantly enough ............ but there was no 'wow'. We shall see with this one - I'll either love it or feel sick by the end of the day! :25:

Simon: I'm enjoying it now, a lot .... but It could get a bit much all day, I guess we'll see.:D

Crewella: This is the first new flavour in a long time where I've gone 'ooooh that's interesting ....... mmmmmmmmm' and not just 'yuk' or 'meh'.

Later the following evening.

Simon: It may be one of the best tobacco flavours I've ever tasted! I've happily vaped on this today. :dance:

Crewella: Agreed ............ I've enjoyed it all day and I still like it. :D

Simon: What you you think about the tobacco level? As I was vaping at some points during the day I was wondering if I was just vaping a cinnamon roll-type thing with coconut on top? Or you taste the tobacco well? It might just be me getting used to it.

Crewella: I can taste the tobacco, it's more tobacco-ey than the Arcadia for me, but it's still in the mix rather than the foreground.

Simon: Yeah I think you are right.... it's just so tasty for a tobacco, I kind of forget that it is. :)

Crewella: Most of my favourite juices are like this, with a sort of tobacco framework to hang the other flavours from that I'd find a bit sickly without it.

Simon: It tastes woody to me ..... that's the cinnamon I'm guessing, as it comes from tree bark...... or maybe am I 'barking' up the wrong tree? :54:

(He thinks he's hilarious, but he's not. Crew.)

Crewella: I've had a cinnamon roll and a cinnamon danish today ........... still can't much recognise a cinnamon taste from this, but I could be all cinnamoned out

Simon: .... not jealous or anything. :16: I love cinnamon danish. :drool: I found it kind of built up over the day, I can feel it at the back of my throat now... it's nice. ... it makes me want a fireball. Have you ever had that? it's amazing with apple juice, it's like drinking an apple pie. :5:

Crewella: Can't say I have ............... might try it.

Simon: Never had Fireball? ... or never had it with Apple juice? :hmm:

Crewella: I just had to Google it - Canadian whisky ............... nope :23: ........... not going there. :28:

Simon: Noooo ... come on, it's like a sweet cinnamon bourbon! ... it's amazing, you'll love it. ;)

Crewella: I had a bad experience with Canadian Club ........... we'll see. :puke: I'm a boring old fart - I kind of like my whisky to taste of whisky.:)

Simon: Ok, here's a question.... do you think it's a good as anything by Manabush? :14:

Crewella: Honestly? It's not up to Nokomis/Chiri Sun/Powwow Sauce, no ................ but I like it a little more than the Manabush flavours I'm not so keen on.

Simon: Gotcha, for me it's right up there with my fav Manabush, Like Waxahachie. I'm impressed....... especially after the first one we tried.

Crewella: I'm impressed too - that weird woodiness reminds me a little of the old B-Juice flavours (which I loved).

Simon: Don't say 'weird' woodiness, you'll put people off! :11: ….. It's a delicious woody note from the tobacco.

Crewella: I was trying really hard not to say 'damp dogs' again.:18:

Simon: lol, it tastes like a old oak table top.... that's damp because someone has spilled fireball on it. ... and a packet of desecrated coconut. :dance:

Crewela: I got no 'boozy' taste from this though. Oaky works for me, by the way - I can see that. That's where the 'leaf mould' came in - piles of old oak leaves in the woods at autumn.....

Simon: … leaf mould? :S

Crewella: and how did you desecrate a coconut, if I might ask? Would explain a lot though... :sleepy:

Simon ... :54:

Crewella: Do you own a dog?

Simon: ... I think we might be done with this one!

Crewella: ... :20:

Simon: What's your one word rating? .... and it can't be 'dampdog' .. something that sounds positive as we like this one! … mine is Deeeelicious! :D

Crewella: Take your pick from 'interesting', 'yum', and 'grown up'. What are you vaping yours in, by the way?

Simon: Corolla v1.5 ..... obviously. :D ... as we've mentioned apples, I think we should do the apple one next.

Crewella: Fine with me.

Simon: You know what I'm thinking straight away don't you? one apple tobacco, one cinnamon tobacco .... mix them together for a 5th flavour!! :drool:

Crewella: One pie tobacco! :clapping: ….. Which is the apple tobacco?

Simon: lol, Shellback. :)

Crewella: Right. I'll be back when I've managed to open it! :D

Santa Domingo is my favourite of David’s liquids - fell in love with it at the Lyon expo a couple of years ago
 
And also

fab review and reviewing style guys!
 
It really is very good. :) I'm going to be vaping it a lot, it's not something I want to be without now.
Nice one.
they are excellent liquids. Looking forward to shellback as I did enjoy that one.
I'm about to do a reminder review of bread of heaven. May be worth you two chipping in On that one as I've vaped it for year's and still can't describe it sufficiently.

I don't think I've had it for about a year! I know I like it but I can't really remember what it tastes like. :D
 
Funny enough, Rope cut is becoming much harder to find currently. Vapeclub used to stick it all but I think they've dropped it too now.

Yeah, I noticed that.... Vape Club seems to stock a lot less brands these days to be honest. (maybe the brands have disappeared in some cases)
