Prof's Review of TW Tobacco Americano-Patriot Range

[prof beard]

This review is of one of the flavours from Totally Wicked's new "all American" Patriot Range - Tobacco Americano

As usual, the TA 36mg liquid was used in a 901 enabled Screwdriver (Mk II). I've vaped my way through about 11ml of the liquid so far, so a fair trial.   I had to buy 36mg - a bit stronger than I normally do - as it is only available in 12mg, 18mg and 36mg.  I prefer somwhere between 24mg and 30mg myself...

The liquid came somewhat overpackaged in my view - a beautifully printed box containing two beautifully printed boxes - one containing the the liquid in a CHIP compliant glass bottle which is well-labelled, the other a glass dropper top for the same.  I also got one of TW's little black 5ml squeezy bottles thrown in...

Liquid is a pale but pronounced gold colour and very clear.   The liquid itself has a pronounced fruit smell difficult to pin-point but possibly something is in world of nectarines and apricots - with a strange "solvent" undertone mixed with tobacco.
Neat, the liquid doesn't smell that good.

The liquid is thicker than OKS and Dekang liquids, but flows well and soaked into my e-cigs 4075 cart well.

When vaped, the liquid is transformed - it has a pronounced tobacco taste with a pleasant round fruitiness to it.  The aftertaste is fruity with strong tobacco and quite sweet. The liquid does dry the mouth,  and leaves a certain stickiness - a liquid best consumed with drinks in my opinion - scarcely a hardship...

The flavour is strong but stood up to heavy vaping without become "too much".

The hit is really excellent - and is very pronounced on exhale as well as inhale.

The vapour has a real tobacco/smoke smell to it with certain sharpness which is surprising given the fruitiness in the taste - the fruitiness is not noticeable in the smell of the vapour.  The smell does hang around - everyone has commented - I quite like the smell but sadly my wife HATES it...   (So it has become "going out" juice for me)

I've enjoyed this so much I've ordered some more, which, given the price, speaks volumes  It goes splendidly with Guinness...

Flavour wise I'd say between b and c but sweeter in the aftertaste

I haven't bought any TW liquid for ages - after this glowing review however and knowing how close your reviews seem to match with my tastes I thought I'd try some.

Really glad I did, it's a lovely liquid, and as usual your review is spot on Prof.    I do find 36mg a bit too much for me as it gives me a headache quite quickly, really wish they did something between 18 and 36!  Still, I watered it down with a mix of pg and vg to about 32mg and it hasn't lost too much of the flavour.
