Batch#-48 9/30/2017 -4/01/2018

Virginias, Perique, unsweetened black Cavendish, with a dash of Latakia and a spoonful of rich cigar leaf.
Very Clean, with immediate and definite cigar notes, slight top smoky but mild note. Definite cigar like body component, but the presence is on the mild side, not overpowering with a very nice moist exhale, pleasant but mild room note pleasantly rounded solid vape inhale mouthfeel, the cigar note immediately becomes apparent. with many natural tobacco undertones present, positively identifies itself as a tobacco NET. If you are an ex- cigar smoker then this one is highly recommended.

Constellation
Blended By Craig Tarler
Manufactured By Cornell & Diehl
Blend Type English
Contents Black Cavendish, Burley, Latakia, Virginia
Flavoring None
Batch#-45 9/23/2017 -3/25/2018
Monochromatic, uninteresting, no flavor depth, saltiness from the natural black cavendish
dry, very odd latakia flavor profile, smokie, this one is on the “give it away list)
28g 130F-8HRS
Propylene Glycol 150mls
I find this very full American English Blend sort of monochromatic, uninteresting, no flavor depth, saltiness from the natural black cavendish and neutral, bland, plain tobacco taste. The Black Cavendish takes over with a dark, dried vegetation flavor, with the Virginias providing a constant sweet backdrop and the Burleys filling out the middle. The result has the sweet-n-sour balance of a good English with the fuller body of a Burley blend, but tends too far toward the sweet and salty, making this piquant blend somewhat cloying So I am not a big fan of this one. But Taste is Subjective, you might like it.

Bailey Front Porch

Manufactured By Cornell & Diehl
Blend Type American
Contents Burley, Latakia, Perique, Virginia
Flavoring None
Batch#-43 9/23/2017 - 3/25/2018
(dense, smokey, chocolate top, mild, light American english maduro flavor)
Blend Type American
Contents Burley, Latakia, Perique, Virginia
Bailey Front Porch 28g
130F-8HRS
Propylene Glycol 150mls
Blended by Bob Runowski. A dense, smokey vape with cocoa top notes , mild, light American English Maduro flavor. The Burley is superb, with a wonderful woody nuttiness to it. The Virginias have enough natural sweetness, as well as a nice slight vanilla note, so the blend needs no additional topping or casing, this blend is pure leaf only. The Latakia is pretty much just right providing hint of background.

Bow Legged Bear
Blended By Craig Tarler
Manufactured By Cornell & Diehl
Blend Type English
Contents Burley, Latakia, Oriental/Turkish, Perique, Virginia
Flavoring None
Batch#-42 9/23/2017 - 3/24/2018
Bow Legged Bear 28g
Blend Type English
Contents Burley, Latakia, Oriental/Turkish, Perique, Virginia
130F-8HRS
Propylene Glycol 150mls
Nice smoky latakia flavor, Somewhat sweet and haylike from the Virginia, perique is in the background and slightly spicy, burley is present in the mouthfeel, Flavors seem to meld together into a nice creamy, buttery vape. Semi-complex, and well balanced. The Latakia's not overpowering, that's a plus and the Perique helps give it a spicy bite. Recommended.

Mississippi Mud
Batch#-41 9/23/2017 - 3/24/2018 28g
Blended By Craig Tarler
Manufactured By Cornell & Diehl
Blend Type Other
Contents Black Cavendish, Latakia, Perique
(tested 2/8/2018 ready any time, English Latikia forward, but not extreme, smooth.. )
Missiippi Mud 28g
130F-8HRS
Propylene Glycol 150mls
Cyprian latakia is mild smoky, and campfire-woodsy, and dominates the blend. The perique is a mild addition, adding a slight sweet dried fruit note. . The black cavendish rounds off potential rough edges and tames the strength of the latakia. The overall flavor profile is a little uninteresting lacking any distinctive flavor notes, it all blends into a mild and somewhat nondescript feel for a British Blend.

MATCH Revelation
Batch#-36 9/18/2017 - F&F 3/18/2018
Blended By House of Windsor
Blend Type Virginia/Burley
Contents Burley, Kentucky, Latakia, Perique, Virginia
Flavoring Fruit / Citrus
(tested 2/7/2018, very very mild, almost no flavor at all. a 6mo type. Might want to UltsS in last few days..)
My Notes: This needs some sort of Blending Help, perhaps a Burley Base at 50/50 ??
MATCH Revelation 30g
130F-8HRS
Propylene Glycol 100mls
Cold Room Temp Ext
Medium brown Virginia has a mildly natural tangy citrus sweetness while the burley sports some earthy points, plus a light nuttiness. The perique is very lightly added for a hint of spice, as well as the Latakia is very light in the background and not annoying in the least and it lends a very mild smokey, woody bass notes. There’s a sweet fruity plum like top note. A very nice, mild ADV with a pleasant room note.

Morley Best

Contents Burley, Latakia, Virginia
Flavoring None
Batch#-33 9/11/2017 (taste tested on 11/04, pretty good but 1 more month would not hurt it..)

Morley Best 28g 150F-12HRS
Ethyl Alcohol 150mls
Batch#-35 9/11/2017
Morley Best 28g 130F-8HRS
Propylene Glycol 150mls
This one is probably not for the NET beginner. It is beautifully complex, dense, smoky intense overall body, unusual derivations almost from the heavy world of Maduro cigars. Above average strength and throat hit,. Excellent full body exhale, no annoying sweet or other unwanted or unwelcome side or secondary notes. This one is purpose filled all the way. moist inhale with full dense well rounded feel, smoky presence on exhale as well, positively identifies itself as a tobacco NET.

Dunhill Nightcap

Manufactured By Scandinavian Tobacco Group
Blend Type English
Contents Latakia, Oriental/Turkish, Perique, Virginia
Flavoring None
Combined finished and Filtered on 02/06/2018
Batch#-46 9/23/2017
28g - Propylene Glycol 150mls - 130F-8HRS
Latakia, Oriental/Turkish, Perique,
A very English blend, a nice fully body smokie vape.
This is a English Pipe Shop Blend with a Latakia forward dominant aroma and presence. but unlike some blends of this type this one has a tamer and well rounded overall sense. It is a very approachable vape in the English Blends. Not a ADV, but would be great later at night with a glass of Brandy. Recommended

Batch#-15 8/18/2017 Billy Bud 30g Hot Ethyl Alcohol 120mls 12Hrs@150F
The vape is burley and latakia forward. It is smooth and smoky. There is a constant slightly bitter from the burley and a solid earthy foundation. There are sweet Virginia and melow cigar notes every now and then. The cigar adds to the full flavor and backs up the latakia nicely. The Virginia is sweet and a little grassy. It works well and there is a certain chewy quality to the vape.

Lane Ltd. La Gloria Cubana Pipe Tobacco
Blended By Lane Limited
Manufactured By Lane Limited
Blend Type English
Contents Latakia, Oriental/Turkish, Perique, Virginia
Flavoring None
Batch#-31 9/5/2017 -> 11/23/2017
dry english blend, latikia smokie and musty w/ Perique, Cyprian latakia, sweet Virginias,
and the rich, floral notes of Oriental leaf, finished with a subtle touch of perique for a bit of spice.
30g 150ml PG Only
Virginia Dry english blend, latikia smokie and musty w/ Perique, Cyprian latakia, sweet Virginias, and the rich, floral notes of Oriental leaf, finished with a subtle touch of perique for a bit of spice. Of course Lane Ltd borrowed the famous name of La Gloria Cubana from the maker of the cigars, but the flavor profile of this vape has nothing to do with that and rather is quite different with an English Pipe Shop feel.

- This blend is in the "American English" category. an entire range of flavors in nearly every puff. It is the work of master blender Russ Ouellette at Lane Ltd. I use this as one of my ADVs and come back to it often. It is an easy extraction for the newbie NETer, and easy to vape and easy to understand blend. Highly recommended.

Peter S English Oriental Supreme 28g
Cold PG 150mls
Very dominate Latakia forward pipe-shop traditional type body, not monochromatic but not complex either, Like a very traditional pipe mix from the old days. Very nice and enjoyable rounded medium mouth feel. Surprisingly the Latakia is not very aromatic but only tame on exhale, and does not dramatically transfer to the room note as I expected it would. A good natural tobacco base clearly from a pipe tobacco base, positively identifies itself as a tobacco NET</r>
