wh1skeyk1ng
Setup: Velocity clone; dual twisted 24awg Ni/28awg kanthal @ .27Ω; cotton wicks; 45 W
Testing: Inawera Gold for Pipe @ 3%; Aged: 27 days
Flavor description: Rich, smooth, blend of light pipe tobaccos with heavy notes of lightly spiced honey. Before a steep, I swore I tasted real metallic gold.
Off-flavors: Nothing really off unless you count the metallic gold you get before a short steep. However it is "gold" for pipe, right?
Throat hit: 3/10 pretty smooth with a heavy feel
Uses: Good as is, but would work in a blended tobacco base too.
Pairings: other preferred tobaccos. Could be complimented by small amounts of nuts, caramel, vanilla, possibly some of the more buttery custards, or even some light floral flavorings.
Notes: I don't like the idea of trying to doctor this flavor too much, simply because of its delicate complexity. I think this flavor works fine as a shake n vape, however it does change a bit over time leaving little to be desired as far as flavor either way IMO.
