Blueberry Cotton Candy

**My build:**

Kayfun 5/Therion 75w/30 watts/Single coil Kanthal

**Percentage Mixed**

Standalone/ 3% / 50/50 VG PG

**Steep Time:**

5 days.

**First Impressions:**

The concentrate is clear and there's no sign of coloring whatsoever. As for the smell, I get a strong whiff of sweet blueberries with some candy backnotes... actually, it really smells like those AirHead candies I used to devour as a kid. It's definitely reminescent of blue raspberry candy instead of an actual blueberry cotton candy.

**Taste:**

Oh wow, first impressions. This is a tasty flavor! The blueberries aren'y exactly 'fresh tasting'. Instead, what I get tastes more like a blueberry extract used in many of my favourite blueberry candies. I don't get much cotton candy to be honest. Maybe just ethyl maltol.

But this flavoring does show a lot of promise at 5%!

It's sweet, fun, juvenile and kind of reminds me a little of when I was a kid. My parents would take me to the carnival snack booth and dad would say I could pick one thing. I would always, hands down, go for cotton candy. Even tho the pink ones always tasted like the blue or purple ones (probably just food dye without actually changing the actual flavor LOL!)

**Standalone/Mixer:**

It's really tasty as a standalone although I would lean on the higher side of things when mixing (try 7 - 10%). As an accent, this works pretty much the same way as TFA Cotton Candy. It definitely sweetens up a mix but it does something extra, an almost underlying candy-like taste. IMO, TFA Cotton Candy just moistens a recipe and gives it the impression of sweetness. FW's version actually has a more genuine candy taste to it.

**Pairings**

Fruits, desserts, candies!

**Is it 4oz-worthy?**

A word that comes to mind when vaping this is fun! This is a very simple and comforting flavoring. There's not much complexity to it but rest assured, it'll always leave you vaping with a smile. Because it's such a linear flavour, you definitely need to play around with it and flavor bend in order to alter its properties. Try adding some bubblegum or swedish candy to it to make it a full-fledged candy!

Nonna's Cake

**FA's description:** "A true lovable Cake base... as good as only grandmothers can do! We suggest using 2-4%" http://flavourart.com/en/store/resellers/custom-mix/nonna-cake-en/

I mixed it up at 3% as I figured that would be a good middle ground for an FA flavor. Most of us usually use FA anywhere from .5-4%. I mixed it at 70vg and 3mg nicotine just as I would any other mix.

(3/23/16) Fresh - Lemon cake. Tastes very synthetic or plastic like, it immediately reminded me of those Hostess cupcakes, the yellow ones. Not sure if those are lemon flavored but I suppose the synthetic flavor reminded me of packaged cakes.

24-48 hour age - Still a synthetic lemon cake. I suppose more bakery or cake notes come through. Fuck this lemon though. Pretty gross so far.

7 days - Much more enjoyable, some of the lemon has faded and more cake comes through. Still very synthetic and not what I was hoping for.

Today - I haven't had much desire to taste this further since it's been a let down. But today, after 12 days it's a much better vape. Most, but not all, of the lemon is all but gone. More bakery cake for sure. I think they were definitely going for a single flavor vape here.

I can see this being used at very low percentages to add some cake notes, but the lemon is going to be there.

**Final thoughts.** Why FA, why? Correct me if I'm wrong but this came out just as the bad news about FW Yellow Cake was announced. They had a perfect opportunity to release a white or yellow cake flavor. It would have been so popular, and it may still be. But, for me this sucks. I don't know what it is with Italians and their lemon deserts, but I feel as if they totally screwed this one up. FA, give us a plain yellow or white cake flavor to build off of.

Ginger Ale

***Summary***
*Tested at 5%*
The flavor reminds me of like a mix between Vernor's and store brand ginger ale syrup. It's not thick or dense, but almost a little "sticky" or "viscous" if that makes sense. I get little to no effervescence, which I was hoping would be present. Overall I enjoy the flavor, but it misses the mark to be an all inclusive ginger ale, so things like liquor, champagne, spices, etc. may be desired in a mix. Slightly sweet, not so much so that additional sweeteners would be unwarranted. Although the flavor is prominent, it is slightly in the back, so if you want it to be more present you may need to use a higher % in a mix.

**On the Nose**
Mostly very sweet ginger, slight hint of spice

**Recommended Usage**
*Stand alone*: 4-8%

*In a mix*: 2-6%.

**Throat**
Mild, very mildly effervescent feeling

**Ideal Pairings**
Citrus, other spices, liquors/cocktails, menthol/cool, dark berries

**Avoid**
I would think like melons probably.

**Steep**
Pretty Good right away. I don't notice much of a difference from 1 day - 2 week steep

**Recipe Idea: Spiked Ginger Ale**
*Steep:* S&V *Ratio: 20PG/80VG*

* TFA Ginger Ale @ 4%
* (Insert Desired Liquor here at appropriate %) *FA Jamaican Rum @ 1.5%*
* TFA Champagne @ 3%
* TFA Koolada @ 0.75% (to taste)

So here I think the Ginger Ale is definitely the star of the show, getting a little boost from your desired liquor and benefitting from the sort of "watered-down" effect from the champagne as well as a slightly more present illusion of effervescence. I like the Koolada to add "ice" to the drink which I feel is necessary. You should be able to use just about any liquor here that you like (bourbon, brandy, whiskey, etc.) and have good results; I went with Jamaican Rum since I wanted the ginger ale to be a little spicier and have that boozy tone to it.

Spearmint

**My build:**

Kayfun 5/Therion 75w/30 watts/Single coil Kanthal

**Percentage Mixed**

Standalone/3%

**Steep Time:**

5 days

**First Impressions:**

There's not much of a color to it. This looks like a really clean flavor. Flavourart is renowned for producing clean, healthy and accurate flavors. This is certainly no exception.

Hmm, it smells like Wrigley's Spearmint gum! It also kind of reminds me a little of Darlie's Toothpaste (go figure, spearmint is commonly used in these products after all).

**Taste:**

As expected, it tastes like Wrigley's gum. Again, like FA Peppermint, the mint is very weak, almost nothing like chewing Wrigley's or brushing your teeth. It needs some help in that department with TFA Menthol or another mint to bolster the chilling effect.

There's a pleasant sweetness on tongue but it's never cloying. The mint serves as more of a backnote and it's pretty much non-intrusive.

**Standalone/Mixer:**

If you're something who likes vaping simple flavorings without much of complexity, this could be your jam. It's a simple, cooling and refreshing vape. There's really not much else to say about it. However, I believe this would shine exceptionally well with a crisp fruit like pear. I will need to play around with it a little more to be sure but do let me know if you have had any success with it!

**Pairings**

Fruits, chewing gum, maybe some desserts

**Is it 4oz-worthy?**

Not really, I would just pick up a vial or 30ml bottle and be done with it. This flavoring serves more as an accent and like FA peppermint, it can also add a refreshing touch to your dull mixes.

**Recipe:**

I got inspired by DB Liquids rendition of a vanilla mint cream. This is my take on that.

Jackfruit

***Summary***
So I'll start by saying IDK WTF a Jackfruit is, but it sounded interesting. I tested this at 5%. It's got an exotic flavor to it; almost reminds me of something you might find in the same family as a cherimoya, or a more exotic melon like papaya. The flavor is a little light, but it is very smooth and has a nice little bit of sweetness to it, so I imagine this will be good for mixes to add a bit of a tropical or exotic element.

**On the Nose**
Pineapple juice, sweet, candy.

**Usage**
*Stand alone*: 5%. Fairly boring by itself, but not bad. I don't think I'd want to bring it higher than this, seems like it might start to get funky.

*In a mix*: 1-4%

**Throat**
Mild.

**Pairings**
Pineapple, apple, pear, cherry, creams, melons, dragonfruit, stonefruits, exotic fruits.

**Avoid**
Coffee, Caramel, Butterscotch.

**Steep**
1-2 days.

**Recipe Ideas**
I could see this doing really well in like a Rabri, piña colada, fruit smoothie, things like that.

Fresh Cream

**Rda/** Velocity

**% Used/** 2

**coil/** Clapton **w/** 45

**Steep time/** 2 weeks wicking/ full

**Mouth Feel -** Super smooth and very heavy on the tongue. Nice and dense I would give it a 8 out of 10. No throat hit.

**Flavor Properties-** A nice smooth cream, very Dairy tasting with no egg flavor. Moderately buttery with no vanilla and just a hint of sweetness.

**Relatable Flavors -** like drinking a glass of half and half lightly sweetened.

**Off Flavors -** I have nothing to say here, I think flavor art did a perfect job but let me know if you taste anything off.

**Position in the recipe -** Very rich and heavy so my opinion is that belongs in the base, can also be used to Accent other creams.

**Pairings -** Can I just say everything and be done? (No.... shit.... fine)

Other creams, chocolates, bakeries, vanilla's, fruits, mint, spice flavorings, tobacco's, cereals such as fruit circles and Floral flavorings.I've even tried it with Cola and like the results.

Taro

**Setup**

Aeronuat RDA, single fused clapton, 40w

**Prep**

* 70/30 VG/PG
* Nic 0%
* 0.1%, 0.5%, 2%

You must dilute to use properly in a recipe.

**Mouth Feel**

Medium body. It has a slight initial throat hit, but so far I've suffered no irritation from it. Similar vaping a high PG mix.

**Flavor Properties**

Assertively savory and starchy with a strong coconut essence. Very earthy and root-like. It's definitely like nothing else

**Relatable Flavors**

Taste like biting into a raw white potato drenched in coconut oil

**Off Flavors**

No real off-flavor as it's rather authentic. Though it is a very unique and an acquired taste. Very enjoyable if you appreciate this kind of flavoring. Exceptionally overpowering and does get bitter as at very high percentages > 1%.

**Position In The Recipe**

Base or Background. I believe that using this flavor at a high enough percentage to use as a top-note is going to completely overshadow everything else, unless paired paired with equally assertive flavors.

**Pairings**

I used it in a boba tea recipe to mimic the tapioca flavor. It ended up standing out way too much, but turned into something even better.

I could see this being used in lots of weird and interesting ways, just as you would use normal taro root in a recipe. One of it's stronger pairings would be in bakery and dessert flavorings.

You could use this as a coconut flavoring since it has zero floral or sun tan lotion flavors, just as people use marzipan for cherry.

**Suggested Steep Time**

1-2 weeks

This flavoring definitely benefits from a long steep. The potent throat hit of the raw root-like potato flavor falls off into the back a bit and mellows out. Ends up tasting slightly 'cooked' and less sharp.

**Overall Rating**

90/100

It's quite niche and not really a flavor for beginners, but I really like this flavoring a lot. Once I get a better feel for what it pairs well with, I can see myself using this flavor quite a good bit.

Vanilla Swirl

**Setup**

*RDA*/ Velocity *Coil*/ 6 Wrap Single Fused Kanthal Clapton 2×26 core 32 wrap *W*/ 45 *Wicking*/ Full Cotton *Ω*/0.26

**Testing**

*Steep Time*/4 weeks *% Used*/ 4 *PG/VG* 50/50 *Nic%*/0

**Mouth Feel** mild on the palate and light and smooth on the nose moderately dense 6 out of 10.

**Throat Hit** 3/10

**Flavor Properties** Smooth sweet cream with a sharp vanilla, and a lite buttery finish.

**Relatable Flavors** Reminds me of eating a vanilla popsicle, or light vanilla pudding.

**Off Flavors** Overkill on the sweetness, leaves a sugary aftertaste on the pallet.

**Position In The Recipe** this is a great accent cream rounding out any ice cream recipe. Heavy enough to be part of the base, but not potent enough to be a top note.

**Pairings** creams fruit fairies bakeries tobaccos, and I think it would benefit the most from a more earthy vanilla.

**Notes** Great and versatile little flavor not quite a stand-alone flavor but has so many uses that you should definitely have this in your arsenal of flavorings.

**Rating75/100**

Dragonfruit

**Setup:** Plume Veil RDA; dual parallel @ .35Ω; cotton wicks; 45W

**Testing:** TFA Dragonfruit @ 3%; Aged: 2 days

**Flavor description:** Bright, tropical, slightly tart, tastes like a red fruit. Seems kind of candied without being overly sugary. I can't compare this to an actual dragonfruit, but to me, it is reminiscent of the cherry in RF Cherry Pie without the throat hit.

**Off-flavors:** None noticed

**Throat hit:** 3/10

**Uses:** This flavoring makes an excellent emulsifier due to its high triethyl citrate content. Helps blend apple + cinnamon or blends multiple fruits together. Also good around 1% for accenting single fruit like strawberry or watermelon.

**Pairings:** Almost any recipe with another fruit (or multiple fruits) in it.

**Notes:** Again, due to it's emulsifying properties, this is a fairly versatile flavor especially in fruit recipes. It isn't overly strong as a 3% standalone, but you can definitely tell a difference if you throw it in a mix at a lower %.

Sorry for saying fruit so many times.

Chocolate Glazed Doughnut

**Setup:** Velocity clone; dual twisted 28awg @ .55Ω; cotton wicks; 40 W

**Testing:** CAP Chocolate Glazed Donut @ 3%; Aged: 10 days

**Flavor description:** Very dense chocolate cakiness with artificial chocolate icing. A little bit dry, and definitely thick. Similar to what you would expect out of a package of Little Debbie chocolate glazed donuts, but with the donut part being chocolate as well. I personally get the icing on the inhale and dense chocolate cake on the exhale.

**Off-flavors:** A bit waxy, but in the way pre-packaged Little Debbie snacks' chocolate "icing" is waxy. Not totally off-putting, but a rather weird texture if you will. Some users also report the dreaded "Play-Doh" taste associated with CAP Glazed Donut.

**Throat hit:** 4/10 rather smooth, yet has a very dense mouthfeel.

**Uses:** Obviously, everyone should be familiar with /u/enyawreklaw 's Bronuts recipe which uses this at 7%. At lower (<3%) percentages, this flavor could works well for adding density and/or depth to existing chocolates. For me, this works as a standalone too if you're just looking for a straight up chocolate donut vape.

**Pairings:** Cookies, peanut butter, nuts, coffee, or even other cake flavorings. FA Joy to add a bit of sweet yeasty/doughy aspect. I can also see this working well with certain fruits if you wanted to get creative with pairing the chocolate.

**Notes:** I didn't include creams in the pairings simply because some of them that I tried had a tendency to take away from the dense cakey chocolate. There might be some that do work for you, but in my experience they tend to slightly mute the chocolate and seemingly "thin out" the mouthfeel. I personally enjoy this concentrate a lot more without any creams in the mix.

Whipped Cream

**Setup:** Plume Veil RDA; dual parallel @ .35Ω; cotton wicks; 45W

**Testing:** TFA Whipped Cream @ 2% and also 5%; Aged: 6 days

**Flavor description:** Sweet, airy, slight creaminess at 2%, a little heavier with some milkiness and maybe a hint of butter at 5% but still overall it's a pretty airy standalone vape even at 5%. Some slight notes of cool whip in there, but not really a full on "cool whip" taste at either %.

**Off-flavors:** Maybe a tiny bit of cheesiness on the exhale at 5%, but to me, it's negligible and probably wouldn't be present with other flavors added to it.

**Throat hit:** Almost non-existent on the inhale, I'd give it a 3/10 on the exhale @5%.

**Uses:** Fluffing up a heavier cream, or adding milkiness to a cereal recipe.

**Pairings:** Other creams, fruits, cereals, waffles.

**Notes:** I don't really see this as a desirable standalone flavor, as it is rather boring by itself. Seems to have a lot more flavor and throat feel on the exhale than on the inhale though. Most recipes may need another cream to help thicken or round out the flavor.

Blue Raspberry Cotton Candy

**Setup:** Recoil w/ flavor barrel, Dual 15 wrap 26g 3mm Nifethal 70 coils @.18 ohms. 60w power, 450F temp limit. Full Cotton Wicks.

**Testing:** CAP Blue Raspberry Cotton Candy@ 4%, 60/40 VG/PG, Steeped 22 days.

**Flavor Description:** Fluffy blue sugar, bordeirng on burnt. It's a true commercial blue raspberry flavor, in that it just tastes "blue." No real discernible ties to actual fruit. Again, this is cotton candy so I guess that's okay?

Inahle is just slightly bitter sweetness. Dense but not smooth. Bitterness opens up on the exhale and starts to resemble spun sugar. Blue flavor on the beginning of the exhale with a lingering aspartame and almost creamy vanilla on the tail end. Sticky sweet, dense, and dry.

**Off-flavors:** I get a bitter aspartame edge to all that sweetness.

**Throat Hit:** 7/10. This is pretty rough solo. Kind of like actual cotton candy, it's both super sweet and dense without being wet. Both of those do weird things to my throat.

**Uses:** I'd use this an assisted primary note, or as a sweetener in a blue rapsberry juice.

**Pairings:** Hibiscus apparently, which is genius. Strong relatively artificial dark berries (FW Razzleberry, FLV Boysenberry, FW Blueberry). Vanilla or Meringue to make the spun sugar notes more pleasant.

**Notes:** This is surprisingly realistic, I'm just not 100% sure thats a good thing in this case. This also requires a pretty decent steep. I think this is damn near unvapable for at least a week if not two.

S&V testing is challenging here. I get a noticeable flavor all the way down at 1%. If you're using this a sweetener I'd stick to under 2% or that sugar note is going to be popping up in weird places all over your juice. As a primary, this works all the way to at least 8%. Plenty of people recommend this up higher, but that sweetness is almost too much for me at 8%, and anything higher just doesn't rub me the right way. The harshness doesn't seem to be as linear as that sugar note, but this is pretty rough at anything above 3%.

Martini

**Setup:** Recoil w/ flavor barrel, Dual 15 wrap 26g 3mm Nifethal 70 coils @.17 ohms. 60w power, 450F temp limit. Full Cotton Wicks.

**Testing:** FW Martini @ 3%, 60/40 VG/PG, Steeped 16 days.

**Flavor Description:** Dry vermouth, all the way. No gin here. Legitimate aromatics and some slight white wine sourness. Thin and dry, suprisingly accurate, at least on the vermouth front.

Inhale is herbaceous with being green or vegetal at all. Slightly sharp and bitter with a delicate sourness. Thin exhale, again with that light sourness and just a tiny bit of sweetness toward the back end. Exhale has that light herb note which is damn near impossible for me to nail down. What i do get clearly is some sort of quinine bitterness that shows up on the back end of the exhale.. It's also floral but not perfumey at 3%. That floral note has almost a soft violet or maybe even lilac taste. Really complex here, but it's accurate for dry vermouth.

**Off-flavors:** Nothing feels out of place here.

**Throat Hit:** Very light to none. It's a slightly bitter and thin flavor, but it in that context it's pretty damn smooth.

**Uses & Pairings:** Honestly, I'd consider this a single flavor vape at 3%. It manages to be floral with being too perfumey, and the light sweetness is really pleasant. If you have any interest in vaping a dry vermouth, give it a shot.

The other obvious use is a cocktail vape. As it stands, a really solid dry vermouth. If you add in a little heavier spice (i'm thinking INW Shisha Punch) and a sweet boozy note like FA brandy you could pull of a sweet vermouth. Those quinine notes would also work as a stand-in for lillet if you need it, with maybe a drop of FLV Bourbon to bring the oak back in.

Having a decent vermouth on deck ends up bringing a whole bunch of classic cocktails into play.

**Notes:**

S&V concentration testing, 3% seems like the sweet spot here. Under 3% and those soft floral and herbal notes are a little muted and soft. You're missing some of the light sour mouthfeel that sells this as dry vermouth as well. Above 3%, those florals seem get a bit aggressive and you pick up the hits of lilac perfume and the sourness gets a bit much. I'd either vape this solo at 3%, or mix at 3% and rely any heavier boozier flavors to throw enough elbows to muscle up to the front. Also of note, this is super harsh as a S&V. You get a hot alcohol note along with much sharper florals that could pass as the missing gin portion until it calms down in a straight dry vermouth after a 5 days to a week.

If it isn't clear, I'm a fan. If it sounds even remotely interested in a dry vermouth, or really any kind of apertif/digestif type of vape this is good call. As far I can tell, there isn't a ton of competition here and this is solid.

**Second Opinions:**

Nah, man. Not that I can find. Again, don't go expecting anything but a dry vermouth experience and I think you'll be happy with it.

Cinnamon Danish Swirl v1

**Setup:** Recoil w/ flavor barrel, Dual 15 wrap 26g 3mm Nifethal 70 coils @.18 ohms. 60w power, 450F temp limit. Full Cotton Wicks.

**Testing:** CAP Cinnamon Danish Swirl v1 @ 4%, 60/40 VG/PG, Steeped 27 days.

**Flavor Description:** Tastes like a slightly sour flat snickerdoodle. I don't get a lot of richness or butter here, but that may be an issue with me not picking up whatever capella uses for butter. Definite bakery cinnamon. Some dry bready notes here. No yeast or richness, but a fluffy dryness.

Inhale is moderately dense, sour bakery cinnamon. Fluffy but not rich. That cinnamon stays with you on the exhale, losing most of the sour character. Fluffy grainy exhale. I get a thin icing flavor towards the end of the exhale, with a bit of lingering sourness. I'm saying sour at lot, but it's manageable here. Some extra cream or butter should take care of most of it.

**Off-flavors:** Slightly sour, especially at lower temperatures. I think it's the cinnamon here. I catch the same thing off of CAP Graham Cracker. Sourness eases up as you increase power. I get in mostly on the inhale and the very tail end of the exhale. FA Fuji, a common pairing seems to amplify the sourness overall. If you're getting an extra sour harshness, try cranking your wattage or temperature up a bit.

**Throat Hit:** 4/10. Really smooth for being cinnamon heavy. What gets you is the overall dryness.

**Uses:** Pastry and desert style bases. Cinnamon can be used for ciders. Tobacco enhancement. Check out the winners of the first round of the mixxed contest if you need some inspiration.

**Pairings:** Apple, Strawberry, Blueberry, Bananas, Creams, Tobaccos, Butter, Frosting. Probably a whole lot more depending on who you ask. I will say this doesn't seem to work well with acidic fruits like a realistic pineapple. I also don't see this working with harsh citrus or floral fruits like most peaches. Marshmallow can help with the dryness.

**Notes:** Lots and lots of use on this one, no actual flavor review. So this was an attempt to remedy that. Attempt being key here.

S&V concentration tasting, this plenty recognizable at 1%. If you're layering in other bakery flavors, start here. The cinnamon and dryness just scales up from there. 2.5%-3% gives you a pretty recognizeable bakery base and anything above that seems to just get too dry and the sourness on the cinnamon gets weird.

If you're planning on using this for a bakery, you've got to address that dryness somehow, either with a more buttery bakery like INW Biscuit, or just some kind of additive for richness like CAP Vanilla Custard v1.

**Second Opinions:**

Some discussion of the off-flavors and usage

Seriously, the mixxed competition has brought out almost every possible use of this concentrate. Check out the ATF Flavor page and the recipes

Cotton Candy

**Notes**

Only second to sucralose, Cotton Candy is a most popular sweetner. A lot of DIY'ers scorn the use of it and vendors use it in a lot of mixes. If you want added sweetness to your mixes, get some and test it out.

Use it like you'd use sweetener in a drink or salt in food.

If your a stealth vaper, I'd leave this one out. I go to dive bars, clubs and concerts/shows occasionally and I can pick this smell out like a bloodhound.

The majority of DIY mixers regard cotton candy the same as EM, Ethyl Maltol.

**Nose Neat:**

Muted cotton candy.

**Flavor Description:**

Sweet. Cotton candy.

**Off-Taste:**

Slightly bland end note.

**Pairings:**

You name it....

**Position In The Recipe:**

Background. Added sweetness upfront nearly all the way to the end of exhale.

**Mouth Feel**

Medium. Coats the back of your mouth.

**Throat hit:**

**Relatable Flavors:**

Cotton candy.

**Uses:**

Enhancer. Sweetener.

**Rating:**

N/A.

**Setup:**

Fudge Brownie

**Rda/** velocity

**% Used/** 5

**coil/** Clapton **w/** 45

**Steep time/** 1 week wicking/ full

**Mouth Feel -** Smooth, moist and very dense, heavy on the tongue with no throat hit.

**Flavor Properties-** Sweet, rich with a great bittersweet chocolate flavor. Just a perfectly moist, and creamy fudge brownie.

**Off Flavors -** Slightly chalky, and just a little greasy.

**Position in the recipe -** Should be a great top note, and should be able to work it into a base with a few friends at lower percentages.

Pretty good Standalone flavor as well.

**Pairings -** Other chocolates, creams, and dark berry flavors or a little vanilla bean ice cream for a fudge brownie a la mode.

Oatmeal Cookie

**Setup:** Recoil with flavor cap. Dual round wire coils @ .25 Ohm. Power at 80 Watts

**Testing:** TFA Oatmeal Cookie @ 5%, 70/30 VG/PG, Steeped: 1 week

**Flavor Description:** This flavor is a dry, slightly sweet grainy cookie. I don't get much oatmeal but rather a grainy texture. It has a slightly nutty exhale and aftertaste. The cookie flavor is reminiscent of a crunchy rather than soft baked cookie.

**Off Flavors:** I almost get a bit of soured milk flavor from this. It isn't terribly off putting just not exactly what you want in a cookie. I think it might be an attempt at butter.

**Throat Hit:** 4\10. The first few puffs of this flavor is a little stingy in the throat but calms down once you've been vaping for a bit.

**Uses:** You could definitely turn this into a decent oatmeal cookie if you add to the oatmeal layer. Maybe with ooo Oatmeal or flv oatmeal raisin. It has that dry crunchy feature you look for in oatmeal cookies. This would also make a good base for a peanut butter cookie as it has that nutty taste to it. This might also be good to add like a crumble on apple cobblers or parfaits at a lower percentage.

**Pairings:** This would be good with fa maple or caramel. Basically any fruit you like with oatmeal would go good with this flavor as well. I can see custards and creams pairing nicely with this flavor too to moisten it up. Sugar cookie would work nice to sweeten this flavor and turn it into a softer cookie.

**Notes:** I can see where TFA was trying to go with this flavor. Although it doesn't have a lot of oatmeal flavor you get the impression of oatmeal with the graininess and nuttiness of this cookie. I think with a little bit of help, this could really be a great flavor.

**Second Opinions:** Not many people on elr get an oatmeal flavor either
spaceghost\_n\_moltar found the flavor to be cinnamon-y and cakey and used it in their muffin man clone
cswindz found it to be disapointing when trying to use it in their oatmeal ice cream recipe

Creamy Yogurt

**Setup:** Recoil w/ flavor barrel, Dual 15 wrap 26g 3mm Nifethal 70 coils @.18 ohms. 40-60w power, 400-450F temp limit. Full Cotton Wicks.

**Testing:** CAP Creamy Yogurt@ 4%, 60/40 VG/PG, Steeped 23 days.

**Flavor Description:** Creamy yogurt isn't too far off. Light, slightly sour. Relatively subtle, at least compared to FA Yogurt and FLV Greek Yogurt. Has some of the chalkyness you'd expect but doesn't cross the line into straight butryic rancid.

Really depends on your temperature. at 400F, chalky inhale. Exhale has a bit of creaminess. Dairy note is fairly realistic. A little bit sour as well. Sweetness is really subdued. At 450, still chalky on the inhale, but those diary notes show up as well. Exhale is cheese forward, then some sourness. Moderately thick mouthfeel, and surprisingly clean on the finish.

**Off-flavors:** Cheese rinds. Pretty recognizable cheese rinds. Almost a bit nutty. Seems to show up right around 420F, at least on my setup.

**Throat Hit:** 0/10

**Uses:** Yogurt bases, more realistic dairy note in creams.

**Pairings:** Bright fruits. Jammy fruits. Graham and cereal type of concentrates for texture in the yogurt. Creams.

**Notes:** This is the part where I say that I'm not usually a fan of yogurts. When they run warm, it gets super weird super quickly. I'm willing to call this a pretty good yogurt option for people who don't really like yogurts. While it doesn't sound like a ringing endorsement, the fact that the flavor here runs towards cheese and not vomit is huge, for me at least.

At 4%, this is pretty full-flavored without being overwhelming. S&V testing, this seems pretty recognizable at about 2%. Taking this up higher is definitely not for me. I'd use this as a base, probably with other creams. I'd suggest 1-2% to add just a bit of funk to a otherwise creamy base. If you want to go full yogurt, then 4% seems like the play.

This really does strike me as a more mellow version of FLV Brie Cheese.

**Second Opinions:**

Apparently this doesn't really read as yogurt for people on Vaping underground here and here.

Decent notes on ELR, lot of yoplait being tossed around.

DX Bavarian Cream

**Testing**

Steep Time: 10 days; Percent Used: 5%; PG/VG 50/50; Nicotine: 0%

**Setup**

RDA: Twisted Messes Squared

Coil: Groove Fused Framed Corrugated Staple

(2x28SS316/36KA1::4x0.4N80::2xCorrugated0.4N80::1x40N80)

(5.5Wrap::DualCoils::0.12ohm)

Power: 65 Watts; Wicking: None (Wickless)

**Mouthfeel**

Semi-smooth. Moderate-light density. Slight cream texture. Very subtle chalkiness.

**Throat Hit 1/10**

**Flavor Properties**

Artificial Vanilla flavor with just a bit of cream. A little bit of vanilla spice note on exhale. Moderate flavor at this percentage/age time on the lower edge of the spectrum. Not eggy.

**Relatable Flavors**

Artificial vanilla pudding.

**Off Flavors**

Artificial vanilla taste, somewhat chemical. Might improve with longer aging.

**Position In The Recipe**

This flavor could work in the usual way a bavarian style cream would for a base, but would need a lot of help to boost it up. It’s diketone free but it lacks the same punch of some other creams/vanillas that would probably work better here.

**Pairings**

Vanillas, creams, fruit, chocolate, coffee, nuts etc. Could go with anything that you would normally pair with a vanilla pudding/american custard but there is probably a better choice than the DX version of this flavor.

**Notes**

Some have reported using this more as a texturizer, though I would probably go with something else for that purpose. If you are trying to avoid diketones, this could be a useful flavor, but it’s pretty weak as far as vanilla and cream flavors go. If you are trying to sub for the original TFA Bav. Cream you might be let down with this flavor. Not very strong but wouldn't go much higher than 5% due to the off flavor/chemical taste.

**Rating *20/100***

If you disagree, well that’s just like, your opinion man.

Sugar Cookie FW

**Setup**

RDA/ Velocity Coil/ 6 Wrap Single Fused Kanthal Clapton 2×26 core 32 wrap W/ 45 Wicking/ Full cotton bacon v2 Ω/0.26

**Testing**

Steep Time/2 weeks % Used/ 4 PG/VG 50/50 Nic%/0

**Mouth Feel**

Heavy on the nose light on the tongue, moderately dense 6 out of 10

**Throat Hit** 4/10

**Flavor Properties**

Light and flaky sugar cookie, slightly buttery with a hint of vanilla, not overly sweet, with a slightly nutty flavor.

**Relatable Flavors**

To me this is a dry sugar cookie similar to inw biscuit and Fa cookie in that respect.

**Off flavors**

The vanilla comes off slightly Floral, and a lingering aftertaste not unpleasant just notable.

**Position In The Recipe**

Could see this working as part of a cookie base, or as a Accent to other bakeries and cookie flavorings.

**Pairings**

Bakeries, creams, tobacco's, dark berries, stone fruits, caramels, chocolates, butterscotch, and coconut flavorings.

**Notes**

Compared to cap the sugar cookie, not as good as a representation of a moist sugar cookie. But still very useful and worth having in the collection.

As always here is a Wikipedia on sugar cookies, and where you can buy it.

Custard

**Setup:** Plume Veil RDA; dual parallel @ .40Ω; cotton wicks; 50W

**Testing:** FA Custard @ 4%; Aged: 19 days

**Flavor description:** Sweet, thick, and creamy authentic home made custard taste with notes of raw vanilla and possibly cloves. Sort of like pudding, but much thicker. Slightly eggy, but more of an "egg white" nuance without the yolks, which if you've ever had egg whites, they are a delicacy by themselves.

**Off-flavors:** Some people report citrus or lemon. I personally do not taste that.

**Throat hit:** 4/10

**Uses:** Definitely a valuable additive in a cream base to promote thickness and mouth feel.

**Pairings:** Various creams, graham cracker, cookies, and citrus fruits. I can also see some caramels working well with it. Would probably work well with other fruits as well.

**Notes:** Probably the most authentic custard I have tried, as I cannot describe in words how truly authentic it is. I feel it would make a decent standalone flavoring as there seems to be quite a bit of depth associated with it.

Flavor Toner/Enhancer

**Notes**

"This will help soften harsh edges and tone flavoring with enhancing agents." - Flavor West

"Triacetin- Sold as AAA Magic Mask by FA, and is a main ingredient of MTS Vape Wizard by FA, Smooth by TPA, and Flavor Toner/Enhancer by FW. This stuff is used in many processed foods and in cigarette filters to smooth out harsh notes. It does this by temporarily numbing certain taste receptors in your tongue. This is the reason you can stomach breakfast cereals, microwave meals, and all the added paper and other trash they put in commercial cigarettes. Likewise, it can make some ejuices tolerable, maybe even tasty, that without it would be abominable. This stuff is actually amazing. If you really suck at DIY, and your juice tastes like an abortion, you need this stuff; it can save even some of the worst tasting mixes. SIDENOTE: Triacetin is also the most amazing coil cleaner! It actually does for cotton what conditioner does for hair; VG slowly clogs wicks, and PG makes the fibers brittle, but AAA unclogs wicks and plasticizes fibers, leaving them flexible once more."

"Isobutavan- Sold by TPA, and is a main ingredient of MTS Vape Wizard by FA, Smooth by TPA, and Flavor Toner/Enhancer by FW. This is the "thickening" agent in the aforementioned enhancers. It does not actually thicken your juice any, but alters the mouth feel of the vapor to seem thicker. It also cancels the vapor thinning effect of some flavorings, thus making your clouds appear denser. Too much of it makes everything taste like vanilla."

Forest Fruit

***Summary***
A delicious blend of mixed berries. Slightly sweet, refreshing, yummy. Hard to pick out individual berries, but if I had to try, I'd say blackcurrant, blackberry, blueberry, maybe a hint of raspberry. I don't notice any medicinal or off flavors with it. It's not very tart, like you might expect from a mixed berry blend. You can really go a lot of different directions with this one. I have been wanting to do a fruit tart and I think this flavoring would play a very important role in that.

**On the Nose**
Berries. lul.

**Recommended Usage**
*Stand alone*: 5%

***In a mix*****:** 2-4%. I've actually seen this be used successfully as high as 7%, but it was overcoming a strong mint

**Throat**
Moderate to Harsh; sharp. Calms down significantly with steep, and can be tamed with creams or other volatiles.

**Pairings**
Creams, other fruits, mint, melon, Citrus, chocolate, tobaccos.

**Avoid**
Not too sure here, berries go pretty well with just about everything.

**Steep**
2 days. Noticed significant reduction in throat after 1 week

**Quick Recipe:** Berry Creamy
*Ratio: 15PG/85VG*
*Steep: 4+ days*

* FA Forest Fruit @ 2-4% (I like it at 2%)
* FLV Cream @ 1%
* TFA Marshmallow @ 2%

Here you really get an idea of what Forest Fruit tastes like, while giving you some creaminess to tame the throat and provide some body/balance, and some sweetness that I feel it needs.

Clef is the little brother of Solo and is a member of The Canterlot Movie Club.

## Personality

While his brother Solo is very down to earth, serious, and wise, his brother on the other had is a natural opposite. Clef is an impulsive and goofy dreamer who always has his head in the clouds. But he dose share some similarity's with his big brother, mainly there love for music even if clef cant play any instruments. He is also shown to be a little stubborn which again makes him a bit of an opposite to his brother who goes with the flow.

Toasted Marshmallow

**Setup**

*RDA/ Velocity Coil/ 6 Wrap Single Fused Kanthal Clapton 2×26 core 32 wrap W/ 45 Wicking/ Full Rayon Ω/0.26*

**Testing**

Steep Time/4 weeks % Used/ 3 PG/VG 50/50 Nic%/0

**Mouthfeel**

Heavy on the tongue and light on the nose, moderately dense 6 out of 10.

Has a smooth, Airy ,slightly Dull  mouthful.

**Throat Hit** 2/10

**Flavor Properties**

Very sweet candy like marshmallow with a complex carmelized slightly nutty flavor. I'm getting just a hint of vanilla and rich creamy buttery note.

**Relatable Flavors**

Perfectly toasted campfire marshmallows without the smokey flavors you can get from a fire.

**Position In The Recipe**

As a additive or accent this is very useful and sweetness and smoothing out recipes along with adding a complex toasted nutty note.

As part of a base in a few scenarios such as s'mores or any heavily cream-based recipe.

**Off flavers**

On the back of the hand this has an extremely potent alcohol flavor, I have not noticed this and the baker but may be present in a shake and vape scenario.

**Pairings**

Creams, bakeries, tobaccos, fruits, savories, coconuts, and chocolates.

**Notes**

As usual here is a Wikipedia on marshmallows.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marshmallow

On a personal note I have been missing my daily routine of flavor reviews my youngest son has learned how to walk, and my routine is all screwed up!! I am getting back into it now expect to see some of these very soon.

Cola

**Setup:** Velocity clone; dual twisted 28awg @ .55Ω; cotton wicks; 40 W

**Testing:** FA Cola @ 3%; Aged: 2 weeks

**Flavor description:** Generic grocery store cola taste with notes of citrus, kind of like it was mixed with Squirt, Sprite, or 7up. I can't say it tastes like Coke or Pepsi, but it is reminiscent of some sort of dark cola. Strangely, this flavor seems more "bubbly" than some champagne flavors I've tried.

**Off-flavors:** I'm getting a slight plastic taste, and the citrus note bothers me a bit simply because it seems like it shouldn't be there.

**Throat hit:** 7/10

**Uses:** Due to it's nature, this flavor will play into a soda type of mix very well. It could also be used to give a slight "carbonated" effect. I would stay under 3% or it could get perfumey.

**Pairings:** Booze flavors (Rum seems to be very common), preferred fruits (FA Black Cherry seems to be the most popular), Koolada.

**Notes:** This is a clear flavoring and seems really nice on your coils. As stated, I do taste a slight citrus note, but that may be due to how the flavor smells too. *I'm really on the fence about the nature of this flavor, so I'm hoping for some added input in the comments.*

Chocolate Deutsch

***Summary***
Holy wow this is a great flavoring! Really prime as a standalone, one you surely don't want to miss out on if you like German Chocolate Cake. It's got a delectable cakey chocolate, and a tasty sweet coconut undertone to it. Even though this flavoring is great by itself, its complexity does make it somewhat more difficult to mix with. Its obvious role is going to be bakeries focusing on chocolate and coconut, not many other directions it can be taken due to the pronounced chocolate and coconut. I feel like if they were able to take just the cakiness from this they would have a pretty great sub for FW Yellow Cake.

**On the Nose**
A sweet coconut, medium-dark chocolate, bready notes.

**Usage**
*Stand alone*: 1.5-2.5%. Just try it as a stand alone -- you'll be impressed

*In a mix*: 1-2%.

**Throat**
Mild.

**Pairings**
Other coconuts chocolates and bakery notes, caramel, hazelnut, vanilla, tobacco, coffee, dark fruits.

**Avoid**
Bright fruits, citrus.

**Steep**
Surprisingly good right away. I didn't notice any big differences during steeping.

**Recipe Ideas**
Although I've tried a few iterations of a "German Chocolate Cake," I haven't been successful in making a mix that is better than this as a stand-alone. Bringing some caramel to the party is a great idea, as well as some coconut (TFA Coconut Candy seemed to be a good direction). I imagine HS Australian Chocolate or another good dark chocolate will play really nicely.

Probably the most notable recipes I was able to find were these two:

* Rumpelstiltskin by /u/InsigmaTheory
* DaMomma's German Chocolate Cake by Alisa

Butter Pecan

**Rda/** Velocity

**% Used/** 2 **coil/** Clapton **w/** 45

**Steep time/** 2 weeks **wicking/** Full

**Mouth Feel -** Smooth and very dense. Heavy on the tongue, with no throat hit.

**Flavor Properties -** Rich butter with a hint of cream, and a great pecan aftertaste.

**Relatable Flavors -** As if you took movie theater butter and covered toasted pecans.

**Off Flavors -** Slightly chalky.

**Position in the recipe -** This is going to be a very versatile flavor should work well as a top note, and base, and at lower % an accent.

**Pairings -** Versatility is the key word here. Should work with most creams, bakeries , other nuts, chocolates, and most fruits. The only thing I would avoid is citrus fruit flavorings, such as pineapple, and lemon-lime.
