Necessity knows no law.

Hi all!
Necessity knows no law!
For flavoring Azhad Virginia tobacco aromas, based on experience, which flavor family would be most suitable?
I’d jazz it up, because the otherwise silky but bland Virginia has a lot of potential, with fruits.
Would Super Aromas be a better choice, or perhaps Capella or Inawera?

Peach, wild berries and dragon fruits, strawberry, prune, banana, hazelnut and pistachio, Jamaican Rum, Whiskey is what I have in mind.
To kindred spirits, you’ll understand that I’m trying to reproduce the flavors from the K.Flavour line that disappeared from the market…

Go! Let the banana sound!

Although it’s funny, you won’t get the solution icon…
Maybe the protagonist with fogged-up red glasses does, but I don’t…
Anyway, the blonde woman peeling a banana is more my speed…

And @Tyutyika is right :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
On the weekend, I tried my 10ml sample mix from the one below, I really like it (and the usual case, I can’t find it anywhere anymore, not even in longfill).

Although it’s also true, the Bahamas uses Cavendish tobacco, meaning not everything goes with everything. If the tobacco is more characterful, stronger, I think the sweeter, softer fruit goes well with it.
However, Virginia is a softer, sweeter, lighter “wet straw” flavored tobacco, I’m not sure if it’s good to mix with anything at all. Or maybe a little Burley/Latakia alongside and something more characterful or sour fruit, e.g., blackcurrant, apricot, or rum. But only very, very little, so as not to dominate or overpower the tobacco.
And I’m just guessing, I might be talking nonsense :joy:
Perhaps @Tivadar_Szocs can help you meaningfully.

Personally, with the exception of dragon fruit, I can imagine all flavors being good as a companion to Virginia, so that the soft tobacco flavor of Virginia remains.

So I put some Latakia in it, and it turned out to be a quite pleasant tobacco afterwards :slightly_smiling_face:
Besides that, it can handle even caramel, or salted caramel.
(I don’t know what you like, so it’s harder like this…)
For fruit, I could mention cantaloupe, strawberry, lemon, banana, mango…

I’m terrible with tobacco flavors :grin:. I don’t think you should put blackcurrant in it, as it’s a very distinctive flavor. Something milder would pair better with it. Rum could also work, just be careful with it :grin:. Perhaps if you had snake fruit in your arsenal, I’d be curious about that too.

Virginia has a straw-like taste. However, I don’t recommend vanilla with it, because they clash terribly. I could only vape 2ml of this by forcing myself :roll_eyes:

Perhaps blueberry, blackberry, mandarin or pear (with a little rum)? :wink:
(not all at once, just listing tips :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:)

I’ve tried the mandarin and pear from Flavourart on their own so far, I think they are very good, quality and delicious flavors, they could be good for testing mixes. For example, I think the pear is the same as what’s in Azhad Rum&Pera (both Italian manufacturers), at least that’s how I felt it

Otherwise, it’s rum raisin. Let’s

Interesting, works easily in ice cream, pudding… but in vape, rum is :nauseated_face:.

You often mention this Latakia as a fix-all. Are those posts jokes, or does it genuinely help and make the flavor profile noticeable?

For my partner, I think it’s awesome, but others absolutely don’t like it. A smoky, smoke-dried, real cigarette-like, ashtray-like tobacco. Its existence was significant for me; it helped me to switch. It’s not just on its own, but also as an ingredient in more cigarette-like extracts (some of Blendfeel’s, Azhads’ more intense flavors).

Of course, I also mess around with it sometimes, I wouldn’t miss out :grin: imagine it with cotton candy or strawberry :star_struck:

So you wouldn’t even try it in Azhad?
I like it, it’s a hit, the rum isn’t too overpowering in it.

One of my favorites.
The key is that tobacco is the base,

No, because I feel nauseous if I talk about it too much :roll_eyes::ear_of_corn: (which I used to get badly drunk on 1-2 times when I was younger, I’m not pushing that now either :joy:)

(I hope there are no spicy Bloody Marys either :roll_eyes:)

I’d be curious how the Azhad Jupiter makk (tobacco, chestnut, and barley) compares to K.Flavour’s Garrison, because I really liked that one.

Burbun vanilla, rum, cigar.
Whisky, coffee, cigar.
Rum, raisin, cigar.
Cigar can be kentucky, cubano, dibalo, caro.
It’s not great with chocolate, but with dark tobacco.
Fruit needs something with it. Something light that lifts the tobacco’s softness and doesn’t let the fruit go wild, e.g. coconut, guava, but 0.5%.

Or lots of Heisenberg flavor :joy: it will kill the virgin coil.
