INW Bananas and Nuts experiment
submitted almost 8 years ago by mrgruszka

Setup: eLeaf iStick Pico 75W, Kangertech Subtank Mini-C, 0,5 ohm SSOCC coil, 35 Watt.

**Percentage used:**about 2% of Nut only banana,0,5% of Zwei Peanuts and 0,5% of Sesame , 1,8 mg/ml nicotine base with 40/60 PG/VG ratio

Steeping: two weeks

Flavor/smell: Smells like a milky banana with kind of a nutty undertones.

The inhale.

This is quite weird for me, because I didn't have that much of a throat hit when using 3 mg/ml base.. But it isn't overwhelming so don't worry too much. I don't taste anything special on the inhale here. Maybe a lil something from the nutty flavors I added, but definetly not sesame actually.

The exhale.

The throat hit is definetly there. Seriously I didn't think that I would manage to get that (uhm I like the similarity to classic cigarettes now and then) with 1,8 mg/ml nic base! What I taste is a nice banana slightly covered with a peanut flavor, which is nicely mixed with sesame, kind of like crushed sesame seeds. Sometimes it gets a little too bland for me, like it's getting too.. I don't really know how to describe it, dense? Yeah, too dense in my mouth, when the nutty flavors get in the way of the banana.

Personal tasting notes: I wouldn't call it a great mix, maybe not even a good mix. Don't get it wrong, I like the taste, but I'm not much of a mixer, especially when it comes to nut-fruity mixes. I wanted to experiment with combination of bananas and variety of nuts, but If you are going to try that at some point, I would suggest adding less of the Zwei Peanuts aroma, Sesame is a lot less.. hm, invasive, and the sesame itself could go great with tobacco, maybe honey mixes. I'm not going to try this again because I don't have that much base, but definetly can say that it wasn't so bad and sesame definetly can find it's use.

Take 15 ml of the finished product and add some banana to see if that makes all the difference. Every recipe requires tweaking. I'd even throw in a hint of Graham cracker.
