Flavors that complement β-caryophyllene

[Aerodan]

I've been a fan of the terpene
β-caryophyllene for some time taken orally. Recently I've found a product that came with good recommendations as safe to vape.

The taste is pretty unique - I'd call it akin to a chocolate necco wafer. It's very peppery, and in fact is a constituent terpene in black pepper.

Has anyone ever mixed this with a flavor that compliments it?

thanks! AD

Have you tried other terpenes? Also, B-caryophylene only tastes peppery to me when the temp is too high...

Here is a "recipe" that is B-caryophylene forward.... Orange blossom special, almost a creamcicle flavor

Thanks for the recipe HSD! I'll try some others as well. Though do you find that whatever the "taste" of terpenes its always, well, very earthy? I'll be experimenting more today - temp 165c, TC at .23ohm and 10.5 watts is where I'm at now.

No, earthiness is not an inherent quality of all terpenes. Iirc, myrcene and humulene are the earthy terpenes. As for temperature, sorry, but I've yet to play around with mixing my own e-liquid with terpenes as flavor, so I can't be much help as to what setting to use, as my equipment is significantly different for that stuff. I will be following closely to see how you get on, and am curious where you sourced your terps.

So far, Peak Supply has been my terp source. I'll try a different source and get a sample pack to work with, was eyeing the green apple here since they claim more fruitiness and less floral, herbal and other notes:

Great tip on myrcene and humulene. Will report experimental results
