The Flavor Apprentice (TFA) is a leading producer of water-soluble flavourings.
Black Honey Tobacco marries a dry, dark tobacco with rich honey/molasses and a gentle floral/tea nuance—like a smooth pipe cut with a sweet, rounded finish. Excellent in dessert and tobacco profiles when you want depth, sweetness and a soft smoky edge. Use: Concentrate that must be diluted. TFA flavours are water-soluble and PG-carried; some may contain traces of ethanol. Note: We purchase in bulk and re-bottle into smaller sizes (not the original packaging).
