Thanks for the welcome backs everyone! Staying off the ciggies has been really easy to be honest even with a smoker in the house. Weirdly I woke up one morning to find I could no longer vape sweet juice at all only menthol so bought the strongest one I could and mentholised every juice I had rather than chuck it, even the GVC got the treatment!!! I am gradually venturing back to sweetish tobaccos like black cat and liquorice tobacco and trying to recreate those mixes myself with partial success, the liqourice tabac is proving tricky, missing something but cant place it lol Lost two of our old dogs this year one only last week so down to 8 now. Good to be back xx

Hello and Pam. Congratz on a year without cigarettes I'm with you on the menthol - I can't get enough of it (and easy to DIY)

Karma have added two drops more liquorice and two drops of sweetner but still not right, so I added a couple of drops of kent into about 9 mls and it is getting there but still not rich enough Might stick a drop or two of toffee in there later just to see...at this rate it will be zero nic with all the additional drops going in there I'm not expecting an exact match to griz's one but close enough will do me

Pam O try some Perfumers Caramel Original or maybe Flavourart Caramel, with a dash of MTS Vape Wizard, works for me

I do like that Liccy baccy, takes a bit of getting used too but it shines once you are used to it

[/quote] LOL Yup that's what I used...the USA overpowers the liquorice for me, bearing in mind they have had all of two days steeping so far, needs to be a smidgen sweeter for me hence adding the sweetner and drops of kent with some effect maybe the caramel will do the trick

Gonna need more than two days steeping if DNB and Licorice is in there, but saying that USA does overpower the Licorice a bit, maybe just knock the Licorice up a bit if it is less showing.
or just knock USA down too 1.5%

Not renowned for my patience Rom Been trying it a few drops at a time in the spirit of research, will knock down the usa and up the liquorice next time. Its not horrid by any means, and being a mixing newby I know I will ruin some perfectly good recipes pratting round with them too much....super strong menthol on hand if I do.
