Time to give a little something back. I've been on a quest to clone several of Indigo's tobacco flavors. I think I've got Uncle Cutty to the point that I can put those $ towards some of their others that I haven't quite cracked yet.
TE Black Mile (not plus) 4%
TE French Pipe 6%
TE Cherry Cigar 4%
That's awesome, thanks for the recipe!
Do be aware that Tobacco Express flavors are manufactured by a Chinese company and rebottled by eCigExpress. To the best of my research, I believe the company is called "Express Flavors" and is also available on Alibaba. eCigExpress is unwilling to provide information on the manufacturer beyond the country of origin or obtain a Certificate of Analysis on the products from that manufacturer's facility. This may be a consideration if manufacturing conditions are a concern for you.
You should work on cloning the Dutchess next. I've been trying and failing for a while.
The trouble with tobaccos is that they take forever because they seem to need about 3 -4 weeks of steeping to get to where they have to be. I sample right away, then weekly and the difference at 3 to 4 weeks can be dramatic. Heat and other tricks don't seem to work well, only time does it.
The good news is that I'm about 80-90% home on The Duchess. I have 4 samples steeping now but I've recently detected a hint of cinnamon in the real deal using my Goblin that I didn't include in these samples. I can't really taste it in my Kayfun's or any of my drippers.
I'm also getting pretty close to my holy grail - The Duke. I'm pretty sure I have the components down but I need to figure out which ones belong and which don't and then tighten up the percentages.
The Turk is another one I want to do but I haven't even started on that one.
The Duke is also one of my favorites. I'd be interested in that recipe as well. I've gotten somewhat close to that one using FLV Virginia Tobacco. Well, closer than any of my attempts at the Dutchess.
What are you using for the honey flavor?
I assume you mean The Duke. I don't really get what I'd call honey out of it but more of a nutty flavor for the lack of a better description. I'm convinced that a major component is either INW Tobacco Symphony or TE Real Cig, maybe both, probably more likely Real Cig. One small sniff of either just screams The Duke. I have multiple samples steeping. Earlier tests were very promising.
This is just a crazy test I put together a few months ago for tasting interactions of flavors. It's not The Duke but it does have a Duke like flavor and is a very good vape.
Real Symphony
TE Real Cig 5%
INW Tobacco Symphony 3%
TE Tobacco Absolute 1%
Probably could be helped with a few drops of AP but I didn't use it in this one.
