Review of Rich Vanilla Flavor-BCF:

**Rich Vanilla (BCF) 5.5% (12-14-25)**  --  Moving on to the LAST ONE in this series, and maybe the one I wanted to test the most (kinda).  Right from the start, I could tell, this wasn't going to be a "regular" vanilla ride.  I picked up on a few notes from this one, a Madagascar Vanilla, an interesting bakery undertone with caramel, and nutty-ness (??), some light spicy-ness, and a creamy carrier.  WOW, talk about a complex flavor.   The creamy undertone/carrier was a very interesting inclusion, and it stayed present, but below the main vanilla note, and helped bridge in the caramel, bakery, spicy notes.  The nutty-ness was a guess, as it wandered around a bit to avoid complete isolation.

At 5.5% it was almost too damned good, and almost assaulted you with it's rich, creamy, vanilla.  I would put it very high on the strength scale at this percentage, about a 9.7/10.  It tasted very solidly in the Mada camp with it's darker notes, and slight spicy-ness.  The amount of notes/nuances might sound like a lot, but as a whole they worked in concert, and presented as, well, a pretty Rich and Interesting Vanilla.  I have to say, it had a lot more than I had expected it to.  I could see a LOT of uses for this one, and honestly, I can't think of another flavor on my racks that it was like, and I've got a LOTTA racks, so that's saying something.  No one wants to buy a flavor, only to dupe another one (or more), that they already have.  You won't with this one.  If you are in the mood for a hella surprising "vanilla" flavor, madagascar based, with light bakery, nutty, and spice notes, riding on a smooth creamery carrier, you might want to look at the BIG bottles for this one.  Sweetness was about mid-level, and it worked here, and I could not find any off-notes, complaints, or hell, even any "wants" with this one. 

I love it, when I can close out a series, especially a NEW series, with a banger, and that's exactly what happened her folks.  Releasing the Kraken one final time in this new flavor line from BCF with a **10/10**.  I have quite a few "Vanilla-Head" friends, and I can't wait to hear what they think.
