OK, this feels like a lame question but I thought I would post here to try to get a little clarity.
Can someone give me ideas as to the different terms used to describe tobacco flavors? Perhaps there is a 'tobacco terms and definitions thread' on ECF? I thought I knew what tobacco was (especially after smoking for many years) but when it comes to vaping (and after trying about 30 different juices) I'm a bit confused on what these definitions actually mean.
For example, perhaps someone could fill in the following blanks:
When I read a juice has 'natural tobacco' flavor, in general it may have __________ undertones. (dried hay?)
'True tobacco' flavor, may have ____________ undertones. (damp hay?)
'Pipe' flavor, may have ____________ undertones. (sweet grass?)
'Cigar' flavor, may have ____________ undertones. (dark smoky hay?)
'Dry tobacco' flavor, may have ____________ undertones. (dried grass?)
What about:
Dekang's TAB (similar to RY4?)
555
USA Mix
Wild West
Virginia Flue Cured (honey hay?)
Any others
I'm on the brink of ordering more e-liquid and just realized that I've been avoiding 'tobacco flavored' juice (such as 555 and USA Mix, Wild West, Virginia Flue Cured) because I thought they would taste more cigarette-ish. I think this happened after trying Wyatt Earp, Turkish Blend and Clove (didn't work for me). However, this theory of mine is silly because RY4 is considered tobacco (I think) and it doesn't taste anything like a cigarette to me.
Any other tobacco flavor definitions would be appreciated.
Sweet, flavorful tobacco suggestions would be greatly appreciated too! My flavor preferences have been Backwoods Brew, AVE and Velvet Vapors juices so far (Bobas, or flavors with caramel, coffee, waffle, cinnamon sugar, peach and strawberry).
I realize this is a lot to ask, but what the heck.
Happy weekend eve and thanks for your input.
