I was in the same situation as you are regarding the analogs. I tried just about everything including the latest and greatest rdas, mods, different flavorings, etc. What finally got me over the hump was switching to a pod system with a higher dose of nicotine salt juice. Using this setup helped me when I was getting that urge to grab an analog better than any other mod or juice.
You can try something like a Juul which is the most popular (and most expensive) of the pod systems or there are several cheaper alternatives. The Juul’s pods use a 50mg nicotine salt juice in them and they are notorious for being one of the better devices to get people off of the stinkies. I use a Boulder Rock which uses refillable pods with my own mix of 50mg nicotine salt liquid. Just remember that these types of devices aren’t for flavor chasing, but more of a nicotine delivery system.
Try to stay away from cigs for 3 days, after that you will understand how close to ‘‘analogs’’ is the taste of DNB, this is what was help me when I was in your position. (Sorry for my english)
Ps: Is the ‘‘after-breath’’ of analogs that it is not posibly AFAIK, at least at the moment, to find it elsewere.
Thank you VERY much for all your answers and tips. The first (and maybe logical) thing that I will try, is what LABERYTHM suggested: try to not smoke analogues for as long as possible, in the hopes of “regenerating” my sense of taste.
If this doesn’t work, I will buy the JUUL Device. I wanted to buy it for a long time, but some reviews described the juices as “sweet” and I hate the honey taste in some juices (MAXX Blend?!).
A special thanks to DELLTRAPP for suggesting some Hangsen flavors. I found a source for “premade” Hangsen juices in Germany and I will order both of them (and another 2-3 for testing purposes).
A source for Hangsen AROMAS (for DIY) in Germany would be greatly appreciated.
I’ve spotted a trend: Nic Salts were greatly suggested. As of now (based on 30-40 min of searching) Nic Salts are out of the question in Germany (maybe the EU in general, because of the high Nic content). I simply can’t find a seller. I really want to try it. If someone knows a source in Germany/that ships to Germany, please let me know.
Just tried to order the two aromas suggested by OBIJUAN, from the USA… about 40$ shipping costs, for a 31$ order. It would be nice if you can describe the taste or give me alternatives. PS- What does VZ-SC stand for? Is it an abbreviation? (SC can be Super Concentrated) Maybe I am searching for the wrong things on google.de
It could be either Bakers Flavors from Russia Flavors or Xian Xiangfu Agricultural. Not sure which one it is, but the VZ flavours are from one or the other.
I’ve ordered yesterday some “Premium” NET Concentrates (for DIY) from Italy. I hope they do the trick.
Just passed the 3 Hour mark on not smoking analogues (this is a feat for me… really!)
Thanks WOFTAM and OBIJUAN for the suggestions! Just ordered the Real Cig (and 4-5 other Concentrates) from the Australian site. They should arrive in a week or so.
For the NETs and for the Real Cig, should I combine them with something else? (I’m thinking FA Black Fire for an added “smoke” taste)
I only have INW Dirty Base LIQUID (already mixed in PG/VG + 10% nic, not the Concentrate that you mix yourself). Shoud I use this, or should I go for a “clean” base and add in the nic shots?
You are most welcome. Hope you find something close that works for you. i can’t comment on FA black fire as I don’t have that, but if you add the Dirty Base mixed eliquid you already have, just bump up the % a bit. Should work fine.
between Turkish ultimate, desert ship, DNB INW, perique black, western tpa, and tobacco absolute mixed with a little extreme ice, gave me an alright menthol cigarette.
It is nice to see that you guys (and gal’s) are still interested in helping me out. I really think that I am not the only one seeking to find the perfect “cigarette” taste and that this thread (and your suggestions) is/will be really helpful.
Thanks a lot!
That’s a great recommendation! I used for 3 months and actually quit my 3 Pack a day of homemade cigs using a shit ton of burley, virginia and Perique. The Whole Nicotine extraction had all the components of unadulterated tobacco. I easily extract the tobacco by soaking the tobacco with PG for a few days and then do a cold press with 4 C clamps using a cast iron skillet and peice of 1 inch oak board cut into a circle to match the bottom of the pan I use the C clamps on the board edge in 4 equal locations and tighten each one in sequence over a couple hours. I put the wet tobacco in several large coffee filters to keep the solids out of my juice. During the press cycles I just drain off the juice into a canning jar and then put it through a couple times with a Melitta style pour over maker to further refine the ectract. NET will still clog up coils after a few days but mixed with Whole Nicotine it’s a cigarette killer!
I use Daughters and Ryan pipe tobacco but also like Peter Stokkebye from Denmark. I’ll post a video later or pictures of the tobacco and cold press.
I cannot find a recipe for dunhill cigarette flavor but diy flavours in Canada has a concentrate that is as close as I’ve found. I still can’t get a recipe but this will do for now
