Tbh, much of the flv pack is at best, sinister, strangely alluring though.

aye, i agree and like most i’ve tried so far. but not these two. they are perverse in the worst way. it’s not flavour.

Yes, esp. the Classic.

I still think 'sweet cigarette' is the best of the cigarette ones....

... also going along with what @zouzounaki says, I would use this as an additive too, to add sweetness to the dryer ones. I think I'll use it a lot since caramels and stuff make me want to vom these days. A little of this might work wonders for a sweeter tobacco without adding something that isn't tobacco.

So Commercial @ 0.4% is not quite doing it.
It's missing just about everything and not quite doing anything.
Reading about it on the Web including a of the notes on it they all say around 3% is where it should be so im going to boost it and try it higher.

Flv Virginia pairs well, as I think FA Virginia would also. Not forgetting Classic, add a few drops, or more, Black Fire style.

Got my chefs order just a few minutes ago...

That Red Dates smells good, I think it's gonna make a good tobacco.... maybe like a dark sweet fruity pipe type.

3% .... good luck.

Description and single flavour notes taken from ELR.
Not saying they're right I'm wondering if the low percentage is the right way with this one.


Specs:
- percentage used: 3%
- 5 weeks
- PG/VG ratio: 50/50
- vaped on NarDA rda, SS316L, 28 gauge, spaced coil, 1.5 ohm, 12-18 watts

Type of Tobacco
- Aromatic pipe style tobacco: Real cigs are usually non-aromatic, this is not that. I will say that it's a great flavor off the bat though and I'll definitely will make use of it.

Flavor Properties:
- bright aromatic blend (not overly aromatic, it's a nice subtle one that I will actually use in mixes.)
- touch of citrus
- slightly sweet

Relatable Flavors:
- very gentle orange citrus note stands in the front
- maybe a hint of whipped cream, minus the vanilla, this is waaay in the background
- the base notes are non-sweet but also hard to describe. This this flavor uses the same base as Native Tobacco and Kentucky Blend by FLV. The three are, in fact, very similar.
- the citrus in this also reminds me of INW Captain Jack For Pipe, but this one is less strong on the citrus note. They would def play well together.
- there's a dry note at the end of the exhale, not quite ash but same mouthfeel
- there's no inherent leaf flavor like INW Black For Pipe or FLV Virginia, but this flav, along with Native and Kentucky, all remind me of rolling tobacco.

Mouth Feel:
- medium/light body

Off Flavors:
- none

Position In A Recipe:
- I would use it as an accent note but it's a tasty standalone and you could position it centre stage in a mix no prob.

Suggested Percentage:
- 2-3%

Pairings:
- FLV Virginia (or any other leafy/grassy Virginia you have on hand.)
- INW Black for Pipe would make a great base with this as an accent.
- FLV Classic Cigarette (if you want to dirty up the mix and chase that analog cig feel)
- INW Captain Jack For Pipe (if you want to bring out more citrus)
- INW Shisha Vanilla (or any light body vanilla)
- Whipped Cream
- Custard
- I dare say you could toss this in a fruit mix, especially fruity shishas.

Conclusion:
- First off, this is so damn similar to Kentucky Blend and Native Tobacco I'm not even sure if I could tell them apart unless they were side by side. I vape a lot of Native and Kentucky and am finding it harder and harder to discern which is which. The base notes on all three of these are identical. I think Kentucky is a bit spicier, Native has more ash, and Commercial Cigarette does the citrus thing. Would have to put em all side by side to really notice more than that. My favorite of the three is Native, then Kentucky, then this.
- I'm pretty confused why this is called what it is. Like I said, I do enjoy it but find the name wildly misleading.

i don’t think they are supposed to have a flavour. they cause a sensation like the one you get when you’ve just chain smoked 20 fags. it works really well.

they don't have any flavour at the % you mix them at.

... you don't get the orange citrus note that stands in the front and a hint of whipped cream?? lol...
