After studying long and hard on this forum and especially the 'Best of Flavors 2012' thread I've finaly made my first order at TFA :)

Sooo excited :)

4ml Glass bottles w/caps & droppers-12 bottles w/caps & droppers 2 $9.00 $18.00
fl-324_sz3 Banana Nut Bread Flavor-1 oz 1 $7.00 $7.00
fl-003_sz3 Bavarian Cream Flavor-1 oz 1 $5.50 $5.50
fl-202_sz3 Blueberry Flavor (Extra)-1 oz 1 $5.00 $5.00
fl-232_sz3 DK Tobacco Base Flavor-1 oz 1 $5.00 $5.00
fl-251_sz3 Double Chocolate (Clear) Flavor-1 oz 1 $5.50 $5.50
fl-265_sz3 Huckleberry Flavor-1 oz 1 $5.00 $5.00
fl-285_sz3 M Type Premium Flavor-1 oz 1 $8.00 $8.00
fl_080_sz2 Mary Jane Flavor-15ml 1 $3.80 $3.80
pip_sz1 Medium Disposable Pipettes-bag of 25 1 $2.00 $2.00
fl-309_sz3 Peach (Juicy) Flavor-1 oz 1 $7.00 $7.00
fl-316_sz3 RY4 Asian Flavor-1 oz 1 $7.00 $7.00
fl-314_sz3 RY4 Double Flavor-1 oz 1 $7.00 $7.00
fl-317_sz3 Smooth Flavor-1 oz 1 $7.00 $7.00
fl-052_sz3 Sweetener-1 oz 1 $5.00 $5.00
mt-100_sz4 Tetramethylpyrazine 10% (PG)-1 oz 1 $17.00 $17.00
ac-3002-sz4 Trimethyl Pyrazine 10% (PG)-1 oz 1 $17.00 $17.00

This will get me into serious trouble with the wife....

I tried to get some of the best of the best flavors based on all the reviews here.. but also the other necessary ingredients like the pyrazines I hear so much about.. and all in a tight budget.. (in fact I went way over already)

I should definitely be able to make it through the next month with this stash and even create some custom made juice for my friends :)

The next vendor on my list is perhaps Capella since they seem to have some very outstanding flavors from all the reviews.. but they cannot ship international :( is there any vendor that sends to Europe for Capella flavors ? If not, I'm even contemplating finding someone on here to send me the flavors because they seem so delicious :) Why wouldn't they send the flavors internationally anyway ?

Well watcha all think of my TFA list? Just received my e-liquid DIY stuff from www.cig-eliquid.co.uk and two hangsen flavors (gold&silver) and (RY4).. everything from that vendor is better than expected.. I hope TFA doesn't let this newbie down either :)

Respect,
~Trail.

Yeeeaaaah!! The package finally arrived..

I juuuust have to pay an additional 33 euro (45 dollar) for local taxes :S grmbl..

Too bad nobody was home, im going to have to go pick the package up tomorrow afternoon.

The Chinese vendors ship things smarter and put a lower than actual value on the shipping invoice and they list electronic parts as contents wich seems to help..

Arrgh.. those bloodsucking customs b*st*rds.. #@!%^!

Still.. tomorrow around this time i'll finally be vaping my latest DIY :)

Good choices except I didn't care for Mary Jane, RY4 Asian Flavor or RY4 Double.
Mary Jane tasted very pine-y to me. Wasn't horrible... just nothing I'd want to taste for any length of time.
RY4 Asian, I couldn't get the percentage right. I imagine once you did, it might be good but I'm impatient.
RY4 Double I loved at one point. Not sure what happened or changed but I don't like it anymore, steeped or otherwise.

Could just be a matter of over vaping it. My ADV's 2 months ago got tiring so I put them away and came up with a few new ADV's Then I come back to them in a few weeks and there good again at least for a little while. Always good to have a few choices and rotate frequently.

OMG I've just spent the last 3 hours of my life mixing 10 different flavors in 4ml bottles and one in a 12ml bottle :)

Here are my first DIY recipes e-Liquid Calculator

Some are simple on purpose so I can get to know the flavor used. Others are more elaborate.

Tobacco Monkey is my most adventurous first attempt creating a full body throat feel with a fruity nutty tobacco banana flavor using ingredients and moleculs I have only heard about from hear-say.. the percentages are largely gathered from median usages of other receipes using those flavors standalone or as by-notes.. very curious how that will turn out :)

Mixed the Bavarian RY Double in a 12ml bottle coz I have high hopes for that one :)

Countdown starting.. steep time 1 week minimum.. but probably can't help myself doing a quick taste on day 4 or so..

P.s. the 4ml glass bottles with pipets from TFA are awesome for experiments like these!! :)

Here you go Trail ! :) I had these delivered to France

Capella Flavour Drops UK

Woah!! thanks I had given up on Capella flavors for us Europeans :)

Update: without much steeping the 5% huckleberry mix is pretty amazing! Already so strong!
I'm using an ultrasonic cleaner to speed up the steeping though.. and it makes the juices a little warmer too..

The Monkey Tobacco is also very nice right now.. very complex taste.. balance hasn't yet been achieved.. 1% of BOTH pyrazines was probably too much.. maybe going for actual drops next time.. but waiting for proper steep time before i can come to any definate conclusions..
