Let's talk about NET aromas

I remember Red Virginia, I managed with 10 because it was strong.

Very informative and good summary, thank you! :+1:

In my opinion, 2 more well-known manufacturers/brands could also fit on that list: Black Note/White Note and ADG (Angolo Della Guancia) :slight_smile:

Azhads are slowly becoming a thing of the past, as they’ve perhaps stopped their

My next mix, with Zoli76’s recommendation, will be Black Note Latakia!! I am very curious!!

Syrian Latakia (truly original) is already very rare, sooner or later it might disappear unfortunately

I ordered ADG Syrian Latakia last spring, I hope this is the original (or at least has some of it in it :slight_smile: ), I haven’t mixed it yet, now I’m tasting the Tabacchificio and Blendfeel series

It’s no coincidence, in my opinion these are more diluted flavors. To begin with, their packaging is also 20ml (and not the usual 10ml), shops also list the recommended mixing ratio as 15-20%.

Let’s say for me, 10% is enough for now, I mixed some a couple of months ago and it brings out the flavors well in Bi2hop.

Yes, it’s a matter of taste. Many have said that 10% is enough for them. Some people only steep it for a few days and vape it!! They like it that way!

Well, I wouldn’t call it past tense, but I understand you’re thinking about the cost aspect.

They’ve switched to longfill and are releasing old-new aromas, flavors in that format, which I think is just them adapting to the market. Although I don’t know the details, I bet there’s a large and growing demand for longfill; not many people feel like measuring and mixing aromas (I’m thinking of the younger generation, for example).

Hi everyone :vaperina:!
10% is enough for me! :waving_hand: Of course I’m normal. The voices told me so. :grin:

Well, the same flavor isn’t worth the jump from 2800 ft to 5000 ft, because then the Chubby bottle costs 2200 Ft :roll_eyes: it already had to be topped up to 10ml. Oh, now the 60 ml ones are also trendy, for four thousand…

So far, only the yellow-labeled Latakia for me! The Kentucky-Tennessee is 20%, the Maryland is 20%!

This trend in the entire flavor section… The introduction of logfill was a big business move… And also when they realized that what can be sold as logfill at double or triple the price is withdrawn from the normal flavor market..
Demand.. supply.. convenience fee

They cleverly doubled the price of the already most expensive extracts, not to mention that “the product also became smaller.”

That’s right, but it matters what you mix and in what ratio. Looking back at the new comments and questions from the past few weeks, many people find it problematic to even prepare their own e-liquid base (VG/PG) and want to buy it ready-made. For the sake of simplicity, if you have a 10ml flavor concentrate that needs to be mixed at 10% (let’s not even think about 5%, 8%, 15% ratios etc.) and the person only has a 60ml Chubby at home, it would be good to measure it out (6ml flavor concentrate), but with the exclamation “I want to vape, dammit, not do math or measure,” they’d rather grab a shortfill and add a nic booster. Or a longfill, add 1-2 boosters, fill the empty space with base liquid…

But this is just my personal opinion, obviously a bit exaggerated… And respect to the exceptions!! I don’t want to generalize.

On the other hand, there’s the business side as well, as they can sell the same amount of flavor concentrate more expensively through “convenience” marketing (just fill it to the top of the bottle and it’s done).

That’s exactly what I wanted to write. I have no problem with longfills, only their price. From a convenience perspective, they are really good. I mean, I don’t have any problem with the flavorings either, I enjoy measuring them out.

Anyway, the 20% is completely logical, and that you feel it’s a bit too little.

If, for example, Azhad’s recommended mix for 10ml is 10%, and Tabacchificio’s recommended mix for 20ml is 15-20%, and both cost about the same price, then I assume Tabacchificio is a slightly thinner type, but with these ratios, I get a similar “flavor experience”, concentration.

Still, for now, 10% is good for me, I think Bi2hop has very good flavor reproduction. Or I don’t know :rofl:

Unfortunately, it’s not exaggerated or sensationalist at all.

This is the sad reality :sob:
