FLV Cavendish
submitted over 8 years ago by T_Maceresident tobacco specialist

Specs:

  • percentage used: 2%
  • 1 month steep
  • PG/VG ratio: 50/50
  • vaped on NarDA rda, SS316L, 26 gauge, spaced coil, 0.62 ohm, 15-25 watts

 

Type of Tobacco

  • Aromatic

 

Flavor Properties:

  • heavy pipe-style aromatic
  • sweet
  • perfume-y
  • room note is similar to an aromatic pipe

 

Relatable Flavors:

  • cherry top note (kinda of a candied cherry, thinks Halls cough drops)
  • honey down low in the mix
  • light florals
  • a faint Swedish berry vibe that can be detected in some tobaccos (like Hangsen's Arabic and DM Tobacco)
  • no authentic tobacco leaf flavor to speak of

 

Mouth Feel:

  • dense

 

Off Flavors:

  • the cherry is a bit too candy style but that may suit some people's tastes

 

Position In A Recipe:

  • top note

 

Suggested Percentage:

  • 1% or less

 

Pairings:

  • dark, authentic tasting tobaccos

 

Conclusion:

  • This is ONLY for use in aromatic style blends.
  • Add as a topping onto your authentic tasting tobaccos of choice.
  • Could actually work in low percentages in an aromatic pipe-style recipe or candied cherry shisha.
  • It should be known that I don't much care for aromatics.
  • If I did want to make an aromatic, I would try this at less than 1%.
  • Overall, it's a bit synthetic tasting at 2% but in a mix it might work for people who like the flavors I described.
  • At 2%, it feels like a 3% mix so go easy with it cuz it's strong.

 

Second Opinion by /u/SolanaceaeEnthusiast (who I consider to be a reliable source of info)

I thought this one was a pure and total catastrophic misfire , its overly sweet (sickly sweet) pungest disgustingness overpowers all the other flavors even as low as 1 drop per 10ml final

haven't thrown mine out yet but i've tried airing it out to next tuesday and the cloying just will not quit

Its also nothing at all like a cavendish should taste - to anyone reading who wants to make a good artifical cavendish go here <-buy that , let it steep for 2 months with the bottle closed and then figure out how to make that the flavor profile

I thought Cavendish was a kind of potato. I wonder what potato ejuice would taste like.

"Cavendish Tobacco refers to tobacco that has added flavoring, or which was possibly subjected to heavy pressure in order to produce a sweet taste with a moist texture."

I will defer to your better judgement on this one since a) I don't much care for aromatics so I have no reference point for what's good or bad and b) I have not attempted to mix with this, mostly of because of a.

Edit: I think I'll add your comment to the foot of my review as a second opinion.
