Y the Y's?

I have seen a number of e-juice flavours marked as RY-? and various numbers after them and now I am seeing other vendors using GY-4 and KY-4 and the like.

What are these flavours?

What does RY, GY and KY stand for?

Are these tobacco flavours?
And if so, are they British Tobacco flavours or American and Continental?

I believe the RY stands for Ruyan... No idea about the others though, maybe just a spin on the RY?

RY stands for Ruyan. Ruyan is a large chinese company who claims to be the original inventor of the e cigarette... the 4 is the version number ...RY1, RY2, RY3, RY4 etc

RY4 is a combo of tobacco, vanilla and caramel

the GY4 and KY4 are other mixers take on it

Yep . . think it was orginally developed by 2 Chinese guys & the others are just different takes on the original & it supposed to be a tobacco flavour, but for me the provailing flavours are hazelnut & caramel, so not like any tobacco you'd recognise.
Also not entirely sure but I think the higher the number the sweeter it is.

Okay, thanks guys and gals.

I was getting confused.
Nothing new there then, I hear you say!!!!

I have bought a GY-4, but letting it steep for a few days before I try it.
I just wanted to know what to expect before I tasted it.
