FROM SEED TO LIQUID

Our 9-step Process

At Black Note, we embrace the Italian Slow Food Movement’s philosophy of taking the time to craft something truly exceptional. We believe that good things come to those who are patient, and that’s why we’ve taken the slow and natural approach to creating our e-liquids. While most e-liquids are artificially concocted in a lab, we’ve brought the same meticulous attention to detail and respect for natural ingredients that the Slow Food Movement celebrates to the art of crafting Black Note.

1. SELECTING THE TOBACCO SEED

 

Breeding the Best Varieties

An incredible number of factors affect the taste and harmony of tobacco flavoring. These include seed variety, location and method used in growing the crop, the drying and curing process and much more. Since it all begins with the seed, Black Note selects only non-GMO tobacco seeds, then takes the time to breed and cross-breed tobacco seeds a year before we even grow the crop to ensure only the healthiest cross-bred tobacco varieties are produced.

2. GROWING THE TOBACCO

Nurturing Nature's Crop

The phrase “nature and nurture” in its modern sense relates to the influence of one’s innate qualities as compared to one’s environment and upbringing. Like the birth and development of the world’s great pianists, cello players and even conductors, “nature and nurture” plays the central role in the making of Black Note tobacco flavored e-juice. True quality not only requires the very best seed selection, but also fertile soil, precise growing conditions, and plenty of attention. 

We take great care in ensuring that optimized conditions are present: the right location, the position of the land, and the preparation of the soil for the plants. We are also vigilant while nursing the seedlings, transplanting them from the greenhouse into the field, and harvesting our plants only when they are fully ripe and ready.

3. CURING THE LEAF

Meticulous Drying and Maturing

Once matured, the leaves are carefully harvested and then gradually cured and dried in specially constructed barns.

Depending on the tobacco variety and characteristic, leaves are further matured and dried using sun-curing, air-curing, flue-curing, or fire-curing. The leaves are constantly supervised to guarantee quality and to ensure that we never hit a sour note in our tobacco flavors.

4. MOISTENING & STRIPPING

Handling Fragile Leaves

Once the leaves have been fully cured, they must be moistened. Cured leaves are fragile and delicate, so they must be conditioned in moistening chambers to protect against breakage during handling. Once moistened, the leaves are stripped and sorted into grades based on quality, color and size. We only select the top 50% of all leaves for the next step in our process.

5. CONDITIONING & AGING

Enhancing Flavor

Next, we condition and age our leaves to enhance their flavor. This involves completely drying the leaves by air once more, and then adding a uniform amount of moisture. Once we’ve achieved the optimal moisture level, the tobacco is aged for an extended period, which allows it to develop a full range of flavor and aroma notes.

6. BLENDING THE TOBACCO

Unique Flavor Combinations

A single instrument played solo can be quite beautiful, but only by combining many different instruments can true musical splendor be appreciated. We believe that tobacco is no different. We carefully select leaves from different growing areas as well as climate zones and stalk positions. These are mixed to create unique blends, each carrying its own flavor notes and personality. And if you are curious as to how we prepare each blend, well, that is a family secret matured with generations of experience.

7. NATURALLY EXTRACTING

 

Capturing Nature's Essence

To create the liquid harmony that is Black Note, we start by naturally extracting the essence of each blend through a tobacco maceration process. This begins with a six to eight-week steeping period that results in a softer, more nuanced extract. We carefully preserve the signature flavor notes of each blend by steeping the tobacco leaves in cold extraction, which protects against bitterness and harshness and delivers a smooth vape with no harsh throat hit. The result is a pure, unadulterated flavor that comes from top-quality tobacco.

8. FILTERING

Unmatched Purity

After extracting the delicate essence of each blend, we microfilter it to remove any impurities, leaving behind the purest liquid on the market that is free of contaminants and debris. Our state-of-the-art laboratory, where the maceration, extraction, microfiltration, mixing, and quality control is done, is supervised by in-house expert chemists to ensure the highest quality and purity standards. We believe in delivering the finest e-juice flavors available, without any artificial flavors, sweeteners, dyes, or synthetic nicotine.

9. BOTTLING & PACKAGING

Crafted with Patience and Detail

At Black Note, we believe that good things come to those who are patient. That is why we run our machines slower, never sacrificing quality for quantity. We are proud to say that our product is created with the same mentality and attention to detail as the slow food movement, and is entirely bottled and packaged in Italy.
