Faerie's finest or batko flavorings?

[VapeDentist]

Anyone have experience with any of these vendors. They make their own extracts. I've performed a search on then forums and don't seem to find much. Would love to hear thoughts and opinions....

Thank you for taking the time to read this...

Sorry about that here are the links

Okay, well, Faeries finest flavor extracts have, at minimum, PG, or Alcohol. I am a little iffy on the fact that they don't offer an ingredient list for their extracts. They have all natural flavorings, but that's not really saying much about what else is in it.

Bakto flavors does have ingredient lists for each flavor, so that's better.

For either of these companies I would:

1.) Avoid any that contain oil(s), though, some use oils with no issue.
2.) Email/contact the company, and ask for ingredient lists for flavors you are interested in.

It's always better to know what you're buying. If I were to try one or the other, I'd try the Bakto, simply because they're more apparent than the other site.

You got me interested in those Batko flavorings. $5.00 for an ounce, and I am tempted to try the Chocolate. Also, they have Alcohol-free Vanilla extract (VG extraction).

Shipping is a flat $7.00 though. Kind of hefty for just wanting to try $5-$12 worth of stuff. Hmm, decisions.

I have used FF before. Some are good but, most all are weak.

You would also want to avoid any that contain Gum. I see some of the Batko lists this as ingredients

Water, Natural Grain Alcohol, Acacia Gum, Citric Acid, Xanthan Gum, Natural Flavors

I'm tempted to buy the 12 pack sampler - for 36 plus 7 shipping. For the $43 I'm almost willing to take the plunge....looking for a chocolate that is even close to as amazing as halos Belgian chocolate .....

I've used VZ, tpa, fa and all of the others ....just looking for something a bit different....

To quote forest gump...."life is like a box of chocolate, don't know what you'll get unless you take a bite"


Also I'm intrigued by the natural blood orange, cardamon,and white chocolate as well.

Love Turkish coffee which is laced with cardamom, would love to see what could be created....

Natural Fruit Flavors Collection Set of 6

ok, I did a quick one of 15 ml with cherry. 20% flavoring 50/50 mix. Tastes cherry. Will give it a couple days. May need just a bit of sweetener. Not bad, not great right after mixing. As of right now slight cherry. May need 25% or more. Going to be gone 2 days. Will play some more later this week. I'm not a mixologist by no means, lol. This package has Cherry, mango, raspberry, blueberry, strawberry and banana in 29 ml bottles. Great price at $19.00

Supposed to be great with water also if I dont like vaping it. May need help later making it better. Not sure on sweetener and such.

 

[JColt]

Ok so far made a cherry and a mango mix. I used 25% on each 15 ml. Both taste like there listed names but very dry tasting.

Picked up some NuNaturals Clear Stevia liquid. Ingredients are water, 20% pure grain Alcohol, VG and natural flavor. 2 drops of Stevia took away dryness. 2 more drops gave it slight sweetness.

Going to give it a day and retest. Maybe another 1 or 2 drops if needed. Not bad so far

 

[JColt]

ok forget the post above, lol.After 3 days it was horrible! Just made a cherry 10 ml with 10% juice and 3 drops of stevia. Set 2 days. Nice mild flavor. I have vape tongue right now and lose it after 2 or 3 hits but seems about right.

i tried the bakto's caramel at 12% is really strong so i wud think doing it at 7-10% and chocolate at 10% little much maybe 6-8% is a better fit, nothing to impressing but imho i rather say with VZ SC/Gourmets easier to me as im still in the learning phase and i dont use that much
