Hangsen virginia
Hi all DIY mixers out there

has anyone used Hangsen Virginia flavour? if so what percentage do you find works best for you? I know flavour is a personal thing so what is right for one person may not suit another.... but am interested in your thoughts / experience

just got some in the post yesterday and have mixed a 65/35 pg/vg mix with 12% hangsen virginia flavour

tried it today (24 hrs later) and getting little to no flavour at all.... I plan to leave it to steep for a week a two

any advice would be greatly received

thanks

RE: Hangsen virginia
I've not tried the Virginia but I use a lot of their tobacco concentrates and have found 15% to be about right for me. For some they still taste quite weak 'though and I know some people use them at 20% or higher What? .

Each person has their tastes, but for me the scent virginia is the worst smells I've tried.

thanks FlamingKaty

will give it another go at 20% flavouring and see how it goes

also going to mix a larger batch (30mls) then was thinking if it is too strong, easier to dillute with some pg/vg than trying to add more flavour

will let you know how it tastes after a couple of weeks of steeping

thanks again for your help

A couple of weeks is not really necessary for these concentrates I think...I often vape them almost straight away but they don't seem to change much flavour-wise after a few days, a week at most Smiling .

hello again Flamingkaty

just thought I'd give you an update on the mixing at 20%.... I found that after two weeks the flavour was a lot better than just trying straight away, I also tried a bit after 3 days and agree the flavour was better than straight away but no way as good as leaving for over two weeks (well imo anyway)

thanks again for the tip and I think I'll stick to mixing this flavour at 20%

happy vaping
