My mom just started vaping yesterday. We went to the vape shop and got a great tobacco juice and so far she hasn't had a smoke! She's been smoking for 30 years, and her smokes of choice were Marlboro Red 100's Special Blend. So yeah, one heck of a cigarette.
I have absolutely no experience making tobacco flavors. All my juices are the typical fruits and creams. Her current juice makes her say "It's good!". I want something that'll make her say "Holy fucking shit!".
I wish there was an easy answer. I've made so called "great Marlboro" mixes that I found on ELR and I wasn't satisfied. Ended up having to buy a ton of tobacco flavors after reading a metric fuck ton of flavor reviews and then making my own mix for my own taste buds.
If you're interested, here's what works for me.. It's not a Marlboro per se but the closed I've got to an analog cigarette.

Thanks man! I think I might start with this recipe as a base, then mess around with it a bit depending on how she likes it.
My pleasure. Leave me a comment on ELR if you end up mixing it, would love to get some feedback. Especially if you modify it. I'm trying to find a 4th ingredient that ties everything together. Have experimented with various options but nothing ground breaking yet.
Also as a side note, I cannot find Dirty Neutral Base (INW) on any DIY sites. I use Bull City Vapor for all my supplies anyways. Anything I could substitute for it?
The closest you will come is by trying to find the right NET (Naturally Extracted Tobacco). You could also make your own by checking the sidebar as well as other forums. Here is a link to a good store to buy NETs from: Link
Personally im just getting into NETs and tobacco's, im partial to pipe/cigar tobaccos and some of them are just incredible. I have around 60 NETs and all of them have been fantastic so far.
I am very interested in recreating deep hollow pipe tobacco by mcclelland ever tried it? Its a medium to dark stoved red virginia with a wonderfull light fruity casing. I know the casing will be hard to nail but that red virginia is still so rich and tangy i would die for a good tried n tru net of it. Would u reccomend any?
Honestly i really have very very little experience in this area. When i was a kid, back in the 70s, my neighbor whom i followed everywhere smoked a pipe and i have always loved the smell but as i grew older i smoked marbs. Still, i always loved the smell of pipe tobaccos, after quitting smoking 4 or so years ago i figured id never be able to try any.
Well NETs are the perfect way to vape tobaccos, sure there are increased risks over regular vaping but WOW..
If this particular tobacco is one you want to vape then i suggest ordering some, if you can, and then reading through THIS thread. That thread shows a couple people in their early stages of gaining the knowledge to more advanced techniques. Kinn is our resident tobacco expert.
Dude, 60 NETs, I think that makes you an advanced beginner at the very least. Do you prefer cold or hot extractions? PG or PGA? I'm soon going to make my first order for tobacco, filters, etc. Been putting it off far too long.
Im still a n00b with tobaccos, ive done one extraction and it was a long time ago. BTW, it turned out like total shit as i read a couple posts on some thread and gave it a go.
I got the NETs from a friend on ELR who ordered a bunch when MyVapeJuice went out of business. Some of this stuff is freaking incredible, hell ive only mixed 10 of them so far as i have been on an ordering frenzy as of late and had a lot of other flavorings to test. But, after trying this batch im diving right in.
Most of them are PG based and some are VG based. I had checked our link on your post earlier and saw that Kinn had commented. Check out his thread HERE.
Ya I've been lurking in that thread for a while now :D
Got all my supplies and leaf choices bookmarked, just need to pull the trigger. Wish I had ordered from the MyVapeJuice sale, would've made a great reference point for comparing once I get my first mix under way!
FLV Red Burley gets you somewhat close if you're OK with the price tag. 3-4% should do the trick though, it is relatively strong.
Hangsen and Inawera have a pretty decent line of tobaccos flavors. I believe they both have something called Flue Cured that might add some of that ashy taste.
Note that most tobacco flavors require a bit longer steep time (2-4 weeks) to fully develop their true taste, but can still be OK with an overnight steep.
I actually was a huge fan of many different RY4 flavors when I first quit smoking.
Tobaccos are fun to work with, but require patience and a bit of planning and research as far as what others have had success with and at what percentages. They pair well with nuts, vanilla, butterscotch, some alcohol flavors, some dark fruits (and for some reason apple), or AP (acetyl pyrazine).
