All my PA flavors taste like poo

[Zelphie]

I have maraschino cherry, strawberry, french vanilla, bavarian cream, coffee, and others but the first three listed taste the worst. They are putrid! Ive tried them weak and strong, from 5-20% and still a very weird taste I cant describe withh no actual flavor just the nasty weirdness.
Is there anyone that likes these flavors? How did you get them remotely vapeable?

I use the French vanilla, and Bavarian cream quite a bit and I find that the flavor is pretty close to the target. I never use them alone but rather use them with other flavors to provide fullness. Perhaps you got a bad batch?

I have not been successful using PA coffee (I just don’t like the flavor).

Did you let them age? Can you taste all your other juices?

It's not just you. I'm staring at a bottle of Maraschino cherry right now that will prolly never get used it tastes so bad

That's what I thought at first, a weird, almost perfume taste. So I set it aside, and after awhile, that weird taste was gone, and I'll tell you, the flavors are now
"spot on"......Really, you have to let them sit....they do get better

LOL, well at least your post about P.A. is a bit nicer than my first post was months ago. I agree with the aging part for P.A. flavors. When I get the bottles (and I just received a bunch) I take the caps off and let them sit for 48 to 72 hours before I attempt any mixing. I mix in a 100 ml. beaker and then let that sit another 24 to 48 hours in the cabinet. then fill up a bottle, cap it and let sit a bit longer. I don't know what the perfume smell is but it will go away.

I kind of like the French vanilla. I've only mixed it with other flavors like someone said for body.

Ya they have aged. The cherry taste like soap, the vanilla taste like some weird rancid chemical. They all seem to have a similar odd tone to them.

 

[rockyroad]

Have you alerted Linda about it yet?

No, lol I just figured that was the standard flavor, eww.

OK, when you say similar odd tone..can you be more specific or is it something like from Venus or Pluto or Uranus...

 

[Zelphie]

Ya know, hmm...the weirdness is so hard to describe. It reminds me of velvet vapors juice. I dunno I may have to say uranus or myanus lol. It not comparable to any known flavor. Id vape it more to try to anaylise but I dont feel like yaking right now.
On a more positive note, I have some FA coming so hopfully thhat will be gooood.
Its just funky!!

It may be that those flavors are in part ethanol base (PGA) and that's giving you the odd odor. Leaving it open after mixing might help by evaporation.

 

[Zelphie]

I know the cherry and cinnamon is, Ill try that. I do have a feeling theres actually NO good cherry flavoring out there with the exception of cignots basic line but those are vg and how I hate vg!
I dont know what the deal is with the french vanilla ans strawberry, they are absolutely horrific, it makes me barf a little...
Me try again.

You might want to try Flavourarts cherry. It's the only one I've found that I like. It has a very natural taste to me.

 

[Zelphie]

Really for real? Is their cherry much different than their wild cherry cause that one tasted like straight up medicine?

 

[spaky]

I don't think they have a wild cherry.

 

[Zelphie]

Oooh. Maybe I was thinking of the wrong cherry. I tried sooooooooooooo many. Ill give it a whirl.

 

[Neo]

Maybe you are thinking of Black Cherry? The FA Black Cherry has a little "cough drop" taste IMHO. The regular FA Cherry is quite pure tasting as is all their fruit flavors I believe.

I like the PA strawberry, banana, and coffee. A vanilla-banana-strawberry mix (I use someone else's vanilla, since I had it at hand) is awesome if you have a sweet tooth
