Hard to find flavor....

milspecsim · Feb 17, 2015

I have a local shop that had a "Cohiba" flavor that was great! Alas, the shop went OOB while I was out of town. I haven't been able to find anyone from that store, so I gave up. Now that I am about to build my first unregulated box, I decided that it was time to learn the art of mixology.

The flavor inquestion is an sweet earthy flavor with hints of oak and amaretto (I think!) I seem to be the only person that uses tobacco flavors in the RDA's around here. Can anyone help me out? Is there an actual "Cohiba" flavoring out there?

Don't know about Cohiba, but can look around. Earthy tobacco makes me think of Latakia, but a tobacco vaping mixer would be a bigger help with that. Oak, makes me think of Oak Wood, Amaretto makes me think of Marzipan. FlavourArt, I know, makes those flavors. I'm sure other vendors do, as well. Here's an Amaretto vape, made by @HeadInClouds.

Ecigexpress and RTS carry flavourart, too.

I think Huck made a couple of good finds.

The Vapingzone and ECX links are most likely the same flavoring but ECX is cheaper.
Both have great tobaccos and you only need around 2% usually.

Probably need to add some FA Oakwood, FA Almond (Amaretto), and maybe FA Vanilla Classic or Bourbon.
Some Caramel goes nice in tobaccos too.

Highly unlikely you will find the exact same flavor unless you can clone it.

No problemo! Do you have experience with that flavor that you can share?

@Donovan (ECX Flavor Lab) can you check on this flavor. Is it Cohiba?

I use to purchase this flavor before. I remember it was better than the SC's.

Imported from China!

Hangsen Tobaccos have a big following.

That's an affirmative

However, we are getting rid of the last of our Hangsen and discontinuing the brand due to low popularity - so I suggest picking it up while we have it! It's shown as out of stock currently, but we have about 200mls or so left in our supply. Just let me know if you need to order some 10mls and I'll make sure we prioritize it! We have been focusing on keeping Flavor Art // TFA // Flavor West in stock lately as our order volume has shot up dramatically.

VZ has a Cohiba also.

Thanks for all the links gang! Artemis I saw the VZ Cohiba, but I was wondering about the fact that I want a 100% VG or as close to it as I can get. Does the alcohol screw it up? I'm not PG sensitive or anything, PG seems to pop alot in my builds.

That brings up another thought, how much does PG restrict vapor production anyways??

I prefer US made liquids and flavorings, I just don't trust Chinese suppliers after that tainted PG debacle a few years ago.

I have that one.. it's good, and never had any issues mixing it..
i'd rather go with alcohol/vg rather than pg as i do have an allergy..
vz does excellent on their tobaccos.. and no, it wont screw it up..
you can call it a max vg juice.. the alcohol doesn't count, only the pg percentage..

I've never tried the VZ Cohiba before, but I do have the VZ Honey Flue Cured Tobacco. It doesn't seem to do anything to my high VG mixes. I actually find that it has helped more than harmed anything. Such a small amount is needed in order to achieve my desired flavor from it, which I love. VG seems to mute some of my flavors based on my experience. I mix mine at 3% although it is recommended to start low at say 1 to 1.5%.

The Vaping Zone Cohiba is pretty decent, as mentioned they do pretty well on tobaccos.

I ran into one of the guys that used to work there, and they told me it was a concentrate flavor from a something West company and it is called "Cohiba".

Hard to find flavor....
