INAWERA TOBACCO ABSOLUTES AND OTHERS

For the purpose of review, Inawera have sent me 6 new flavours which they have added to their range…….I did initially mix these up at between 2/2.5% ………..let them steep a while, and found them far too strong . I have since remixed using Inawera’s recommendations, and given the mix’s a good few weeks steep.



Using an Aga t2 auto dripping mode, micro coil 1.4ohm, cotton wick, 9 watts.



Cuban Cigar ….9 drops in 10ml 50/50 nic base.



Proper cigar taste….Not too overpowering at this concentration. A real nice mellow vape.

Would possibly be ok as a standalone flavour for cigar lovers who could tweak to their own personal taste.



Virginia ….9 drops in 10ml 50/50 nic base .

I found this a little weak at this concentration, but could still taste sweet tobacco . It’s almost honey sweet, which would make an excellent base for adding to fruits and desert type.



Oriental .... 9 drops in 10ml 50/50 nic base.



lovely woody spiced notes and earthy tobacco aftertaste.

Would quite happily vape this regularly….Excellent…Ideal for mixing with other tobaccos.



Garuda …. 9 drops in 10ml 50/50 nic base.



A very dry type of vape. Couldn’t actually taste much …. Need more time with this one.



Dark Tobacco…..9 drops in 10ml 50/50 nic base.

Lovely rich full tobacco flavour….hints of coffee and whiskey there too. Tastes like Old Holborn but stronger.

Ideal for mixing with other tobaccos…………Been switching between this and the Oriental all day…Feel like I’ve had a good smoke!



Am4A….18 drops/2% in 9.8ml 50/50 nic base .



I didn’t remix this flavour as It tasted really good as it was…

There’s a lot going on in this flavour…chocolate, caramel, fruit, pipe tobacco.

Very complex and moreish . Lovely vape.

Excellent products from Inawera once again.

I will experiment further with these concentrates, and create some very interesting

and unique flavours.

Good review.
Never really got on with Inawera flavours but each to their own.

Just one point though - "Drops".

I never use drops to measure anything as I have never trusted the accuracy, but it's generally accepted that 20 drops = 1ml.
That means 9 drops in 10ml is probably pushing towards 5% flavour, not 2/2.5%

I'll have to beg to differ jimthecarper, 30 drops is closer for many dropper bottles that Vendors supply, it's what I work on for small volumes of flavouring.

20 drops = 1ml is valid for water in ideal conditions. Inawera/TDM/WG flavours are very concentrated, so 2% is about right. They need at least 14 day steeping too.

All bottles have different size nozzles. Using a 1ml syringe with the plunger out, it took 90 drops of concentrate to fill,



therefore !% =9drops. unless i'm missing something.

Perhaps we are all missing the point, and that's why I only use a syringe for measuring small amounts.
One drop is not the same as another drop.
Look at a few mixing calculators.

Consistency is everything.

Not missing the point at all Jim . . . I use drops for all my small measures of flavouring, having tested how many drops it takes with my bottles I know 30 drops = 1ml.
