Cubana by Geordie vaper

I was very kindly given this eliquid from geordie_vaper.

It was one of his own mixes made from Tjuice Cubana and the strength was 18mg.

Now I've read about t juice Cabana it's one of their natural tobacco extract eliquids, as someone who Vapes HoL a hell of a lot I was curious to see if other eliquids exist which give that tobacco sensation.

Could this deliver?

In a nutshell yes it does, and I have to be honest it delivered far more then I expected.

It had a very very smokey , dark , tobacco leaf taste. It was and is ( and this May shock you) the closest vape I've had so far which tastes, feels smokey , when you smell a unlit cigar that comes through in the vape.

I've ordered some from Tjuice as I'm mighty impressed and geordie_vaper I've even been using a dash of this to my Eden to give that a smokier edge.

Very impressed and thanks dude

Is it as bad a coil gunker as some of the HoL liquids @purple1234 ? ... I am sick of daily recoiling with the HoL Reserve and Cigarrillos

@yinyang I've Vaped it for a days, I may give my coils a look tomorow to see how they look.

Is the ciggarelos bad on coils as well? Might be worth emailing HOL , they're customer service is excellent .

Ps apparently Cubana Is a coil killer, so I will defo have a look at coil.

@yinyang my post was meant to say 'a day' I need to watch what I type ( self face palm)

i was having to de gunk my coil in my kayfun every half a tank so round the 2ml mark, the vape quality drops of alot, if you are using coil gunking juices a spheroid style atty is best for making your coil last longer, or even a dripper so its less of a faff to get to the coil to maintain it

Great news about the spheroid as I have some of the concentrate on it's way as we speak, can't wait nom nom.
Ps, coils last me weeks lol

Eyy up guys. I`m here to pick your brains T-juice Cunana is a great fave of mine too and i`m looking at giving mixing my own juice a shot, well to make Cubana is it just a case of buying their Cubana concentrate and mining with a 50/50 18mg nicotine mix ? is their anymore flavourings needed ? and what % do i add my Cubana concentrate ? questions questions lol, but much appreciated, i was also thinking that maybe a wee bit of brandy would work with it @ say 2 to 5%, whats your thoughts about that ? Thanks guys.

[Perpetua]

Tjuice concentrates are pretty much ' standalone ' flavourings scaffman69 . . . . they mix their ready made at 15%, so that's a good place to start.

I'd use a Brandy concentrate rather than the real stuff - it could very possibly be a coil gunker otherwise.

If you buy from Tjuice then givemejuice will give you a 15% dissie.

What finished strength/VG & PG ratio are you aiming for?

[scaffman69]

Thanks for reply Perpetua, i was maybe looking to get around 18mg nic strength with a 50/50 pg/vg mix. I really like bakki flavours nowadays, i did used to go with the sweet stuff but for quite a while my main vape are tobacco`s.

[Perpetua]

I'll do a swift calculation for you scaffman69 . . . . brb.


Assuming you buy a PG Nicotine Base @ 72mg strength, then you'll need to achieve a 50/50 ratio:

30ml

7.5ml Nic Base
3ml PG
15ml VG
4.5ml Flavouring


There you go scaffman69.

Looks like I'll have to give the Cubana another try!.....I had a sample (ready-mixed) a while back, via SmokeRainbow, & found it OK, but not HoL standard...
GV:- Surprised You're not recommending the Origen for baccy!!

[Deleted]

Ha that was a year ago yourgurnard lots of water under the bridge, and mod/atties since then

You're right though, for many not much comes up to HoL standard. I'm having a break and trying mixing some HS baccy but have Perique, Puros Dark and Cigarillos Reserve stashed in case of emergencies.

[glen]

Cant survive without hol cigarrellos
Not sure on the perique, but will keep trying

[yourgurnard]

Luv the Perique!! Wish I could source some Leaf, for a diy go! May have to get a pipe blend & use that.
Oh....Inawera's 'Classic Cigarillos' flavour concentrate imparts a fair bit of the flavour of the HoL Cigarillos...if You wanted to do a 'poor man's' approximation to eke Your supply out...?
