Ex smoker- n.e.t obsessed- vaping 6yrs

There is no way to convey just how good these liquids are.
PERFECTION
WORKS OF ART
I have obsessively consumed every known brand of n.e.t liquid that I could find, over a 6 year period.
Over that period, there have been a handful of standout, exceptional brands that got me excited.
Then I found Real Tobacco Extracts.
Evan, you are an Alchemist. A juice God.
Liquids so amazing you actually want to drink them.
In a league, completely of your own.
I almost feel sorry for anyone who discovers these liquids as a beginner, first up. They cannot entirely know the superiority they have in their mittens.
The appreciation and perspective I have for RTE liquids comes from knowing and consuming all the other n.e.t extracts on the market.
I've exclusively vaped RTE for 2 years and I still feel....excitement, appreciation and satisfaction every single day. Vape heaven.
Thankyou Evan and RTE for being so frigging EXCELLENT.

Real Tobacco Extracts is the only vendor where I vaped completely every single bottle I purchased and I purchased 20 bottles in one order.

I had none that I disliked, none that tasted off, none that went off from expiry because I neglected them, none that made me sick. I liked every single one of them.

It’s quite something.

I just really appreciate the skills, artistry and high standards it takes to create extracts such as these. Quitting smoking like this feels like a practical joke (1+ 3/4yrs to date).
Nothing could make me choose those cancer sticks over my cowboy, ever. Thank you for being excellent dude!!

I started vaping a couple years back to cut down on cigarettes, and I had huge problems with most fluids being obnoxiously sweet. SO glad I found RTE, it's now the only place I buy my e-fluid from. I cannot recommend this company enough to people who also hate the candy-like flavors that dominate the market. I use the tea flavors (my preference is rose congu), they are mellow and very pleasant flavor. The rose congu has just a little hint of floral sweetness, and since they offer samples of other flavors with every purchase I can confirm the other teas have unique flavor profiles that are always tasty but never overpowering. All in all, it's evident that this is a quality product made with adult smokers in mind, which is sadly rare.

I always get a phone call right after ordering asking if I want to sample any other flavors, and one shortly after my fluid arrives to make sure I'm happy with the product. I love buying from a small company that cares about their customer's input and offers assistance. Keep it up RTE!

p/u the order yesterday. thx. haven’t tried the Samsun yet; looking fwd to it. i’ve been seduced by Old Grandad. Man, I love it. The difference between it and Cowboy is very subtle. I’d say it has slightly more of a “bite.” Just delicious. Near-perfect, in fact. I’m finishing up my third tank of it.
will let u know my thoughts on Samsun soon.

Speaking for my wife who is a 40+ yr. smoker, I wanted to do something to try to get her to quit or slow down. I had quit 8 yrs. ago and I knew she needed to. I have a friend tell me about RTE and how well he liked the juices over any others he had tried. So I decided to go for it.

I went on line, ordered the sampler and Zelos Starter Kit, within 2 hrs I got a phone call from Evan, he just wanted to know if I had any questions "feel free to call anytime". I honestly thought "yah right ".
I got my package in 2 1/2 days and then my phone rings and it's Evan wanting to know if I received my package... Long story short, the wife is getting use to the vape and has decided the COWBOY is the juice for her. She's already smoking less.

Evan will answer your call anytime [if you call during normal hrs] and is very knowledgeable, helpful, accessible etc. so if you're thinking about vaping for the 1st time or you're a vet, RTE is the place to go.
Thanks Evan and all at RTE.

As long as mama keeps vapin' you'll have another member of the RTE family for life.
Thanks again brother for all you do. Peace.

Real-tobacco-extract.com have a wonderfull selection of liquids, something to satisfy all types of tastes. Im a tobacco flavour type. Ive tried a few real-tobacco-extract flavours now and all are amazing,still have a few to try and im sure i wont be disappointed. Evan's customer service is first class. I highly recommend trying real-tobacco-extract.

Evan distributes to my local juice spot and the only thing I vape is his Turkish. Incredible stuff. I'm yet to find a supplier of tobacco favors that even come close.

I got an order the other day ...

The cowboy menthol takes like kool's to me. it is seriously exactly like a menthol in flavor, its weird and awesome.

Evan sent me a tea to sample with my order - the jasmine tea. It is awesome. It is super super smooth but the taste you do get tastes pretty much exactly like the tea from Chinese restaurants. It is very very clean tasting, it is awesome. I could vape this all day. seriously good. It is subtle but strong flavor and clean, it was unique. One the best juices I've had.

All three of the tobacco blends Cowboy, English, Turkish (& Jasmin Tea) are awesome, they are each a little different in flavor so try all three

I ordered a 30 ml of cowboy and the 10ml samples were free with the order.

While browsing ECR, I decided to check out the side bar, specifically, /ecig_vendors. I found mostly ads for sales, and other predictable links, but I saw one that caught my eye, for “REAL tobacco flavors”. Inside, the owner of Real Extracts, LLC was pitching his new flavors. He answered questions in the thread about his extraction process, and when someone asked for a contest for free samples, he offered:

OK, how's this? Send in a crushed pack of smokes (at least 1/2 a pack) and I will send out a FREE sample pack of our 10 ml Real Tobacco Extracted Elixirs. 10 ml Cowboy (Burley & Virginia) 10 ml English (Virginia) 10 ml Turkish 10 ml CowMint (Cowboy + Menthol)... My offer is based upon my belief that only a serious seeker of real tobacco taste would go through the trouble to send me the old nasty things. That guy is my kind of customer so I don't mind sending out free samples. The samples tell the story.

This was at the time when ECR was besieged by contests and giveaways, and frankly, ads that belonged in /ecig_vendors. Evan, the man behind Real Extracts, had a conversational style and tone I liked a great deal, and I loved that he wasn’t spamming ECR. And hell, I still had my last pack of American Spirit lights, unopened. So I emailed him, and he said he’d be happy to make the swap. I ground that old pack beneath my boot heel, which unexpectedly felt great, and sent it off. A few days later, I had a pack of four new flavors.

So, here is my first review. No scores, because compressing the subjective experience of my senses into a base 10 number scale is arbitrary and silly. If this review sounds like you might like it, you will. I recommend all four flavors to anyone who would enjoy a tobacco vape.

The four flavors arrived in attractive full color bottles, at 6mg nicotine. The packaging is worth a note, utilizing turn of the century style painted advertisements, with color coded labels and caps.

I’ve tried a good variety of REAL and otherwise, of tobacco flavors, and none of them has matched the flavor I remembered. I find that I like the one where the mediocre tobacco tones are drowned in spices or other flavors. I’d probably like them without the tobacco tones.

I tried all the flavors on a fresh Kayfun wick, with a 1.5 ohm coil, cotton wicks, on a fresh 18350 battery. Per Evan’s suggestion, I tried the English, then the Cowboy, then the Turkish.

The first inhale was very odd in an unexpectedly positive way. Smell is closely connected to memory, thanks to their physical proximity in your skull, I believe, so smells can trigger memories more easily than other senses. I remembered the heady glee of being a young smoker, and opening a new pack. That complex smell of cured plant matter and other notes that used to be a feeling of possibility. Years of being a smoker means I noticed that smell less and less as my senses faded under combustion’s onslaught. But boom, there it was. The juice itself has almost no aroma, but the taste on inhale and exhale is spooky accurate. The Cowboy (medium body, richer taste than the bright English) and the Turkish (like a pack of Camels. Seriously), while being uniquely albeit subtly different, had the same effect on me. It was the taste of a nostalgia I didn't even realized I’d lost. It’s beyond impressive.

Now, I wasn’t a menthol guy, but I’ve come to enjoy it in vaping. Cowboy Menthol is my new favorite menthol-tobacco flavor. The strong tobacco flavor is undaunted by a mint that perfectly matches the flavor of menthol cigarettes, and I will be buying a bottle as soon as I finish the sample pack.

While Cowboy Menthol (and probably Turkish) will go in my rotation, I think this might be the best juice I've tried to give a first time vaper. With the higher PG, that throat hit can help people make the transition, and the flavor, like I said, is uncanny. It’s the perfect crossover juice.

I am hugely grateful to Evan for the chance to try his wares, and I hope some of you will see fit to check them out. For you DIY’ers, they also sell the extract in concentrate.

(I see they just launched a line of steeped tea juices, Darjeeling, Earl Grey, Jasmine, and Mint. Based on the quality of the extraction process as I’ve experienced it, I’m buying these next time I buy juice.)
