I'm having a hard time getting Peach (Juicy) up to par for my wife. She has been vaping the Juicy Peach we get a a local B&M and she loves it. So I thought maybe I could save some money, get some Peach (Juicy) and mix it up with a little Sweetener. But she is not tasting anything. I don't care for peach that much but I can't taste anything either.

My first batch was 5% peach and 1% Sweetener in a 50/50 18mg base.
Second was 10% peach and 2% Sweetener in same base.
Both times I let them steep in a closed bottle, in the dark for 3 days.

Any suggestions? I think I remember reading somewhere that tart could help fruit flavors. I have some sweet tart, could that help?

Try the hangsen juicy peach. I've tried several other juicy peaches and they all were off. Some candy like some to weak and others were so chemical tasting even after 3 weeks of steeping. Hangsen was the only one that tasted like real peach. To add some texture try it with sweet cream.

Juicy peach 5%
cream 1.5% (Cream is super concentrated)

Sorry, I thought I mentioned that. TFA Peach (Juicy)
15% is what I use with tfa's juicy peach. Tastes like peach schnapps.


TFA was the one that had a very bad chemical smell and taste. Was the worst one I worked with.

I like it BUT I am always looking for flavor recommendations

Are you talking about lemon juice, the kind I would find in my fridge and cook with?

dannyv45, I don't even get a chemical taste from this.

that's the stuff. Not to mention brand names it comes in a lemon container or a green bottle with the word "Real" in the product name if you get my drift.

I use a combination of peach flavors, never JUST juicy peach. I have a peach blend that is 45% peaches and cream from capellas, and 55% juicy peach from tfa. I also find that nectarine from TFA tastes really good to, peachy but not "super ripe tasting". Tastes great to me...I use it in...

Peach Green Tea
13% peach blend (explained above)
6% green tea (tfa) ((capellas sweet tea is a good replacement))
1 drop lemon per 5 ml juice
1 drop sucralose per 2 ml (i like it sweet)

All my buddies like it, even the ones who aren't peach fans.

Thought I would give an update and thank everyone. My wife told me my last batch of Juicy Peach is good. Taking some of the suggestions from everyone, here is what I did to finally make the wife happy.

TFA Peach (Juicy) - 15%
TFA Sweetener - 2%
Real Lemon Juice - 1 drop per 3ml

I made a 10ml batch so I used 3 drops of real lemon juice.
The batch was a 50/50 pg/vg at 18mg nic.

So thanks everyone for the suggestions. I also plan to get the hangsen and give it a try as well.

I have some VZ SC Peach and it smells very realistic. I mixed a batch of peach tobacco and will report back to this thread when its done steeping. Mixed at 2%, even though the 'recommended' VZ % is 2.5%. Wanted to leave room for the tobacco's voice.

I want peach tobacco! Which tobacco did you use?

I've mixed all mine at standalone percentages to see which one would benefit the most/detract from the fruit the least. They won't be tasted for another week. . .

I think I went with Hangsen's cigar and pipe combined to try to get a very distinct tobacco flavor without all of the caramel/vanilla/etc of the RY's, but its just a first take and might get changed if one of the two is overpowering the peach.
