Tried to do having difficulty doing it. I’ve friend the soy sauce and the apple juice recipe and haven’t gotten very good result.

Let me know if anything works for you!

Soy sauce just doesn't make sense to me. I think it would taste like soy sauce.

Now miso. Maybe someone (not me ;)) should try miso.

Here's something to consider. What try to mimic Cope? Learn how to make your own, suited to your particular tastes. Once you do you'll probably throw all your store bought Cope away. A lot of guys join this forum wanting to know how to make Marlboro's etc. Once they make their own blend they all pretty much have the same comments... They never new what garbage they were smoking until they made their own from whole leaf.

Also, most of these dip recipes are ridiculously complicated. I think that they believe if you want a good product you have to jump through a tremendous amount of hoops.

I believe what jitterbug said. Find something you like. However, The soy sauce recipe is terribleeeeee. The apple juice I did was okay once but I didn’t measure and can’t repeat it. So I’ve given up on making dip and rolled some pretty bomb cigars. I wish there just a straight forward easy recipe for making something tolerable. My go to for store bought is cope mint long cut. And I know I won’t be able to repeat their recipe but anything in the ball Park is what I’m striving for.

As I'm not a smokeless connoisseur or user, take my recommendation with a grain of salt. But a friend tried my unflavored flue cured-based black cavendish and said it tasted like Red Man.

You could try that and if it wasn't to your smokeless liking, you could still smoke it.

Edit: the procedure has changed a little in that I don't measure the water, I just add water until it's saturated. I would also recommend adding glycerin at a 1:40 by weight ratio to the tobacco.
