Wait, your Gandalf doesn't taste like mint chocolate chip ice cream?
No, it tasted more like mint grasshoppers.

This is most likely going to be the Serendipity extraction... That date was right on the cusp of the last batch of Gandalf extraction...
So my first bottle was probably Serendipity(8/27)..?. And I just bought two bottles of Gandalf... And now
I really really get totally different flavors from 8/27 gandalf and this months gandalf. Was hoping steeping would mellow the pipe-cherry flavor I'm getting. Not that it's bad - its good, I just REALLY REALLY REALLY loved the Serendipity flavor.
If only it were that easy... It'll be about a month before I can.That's easy. buy more Serendipity!

Yes, I suspect this will happen with several people. Happened to GT and me. Fortunately, I still have some Serendipity left but not much. Have more on order and it should ship within the next couple of days. Also have some Pirate's Booty (which is nearly the same as Serendipity IMO). So I think I can limp along for a bit. I'm just glad the problem had an identifiable solution and Serendipity can be replicated again. Adam was confident of that.
This is the good part of the whole thing.
That ,someday, again I can have Serendipity in my grasp! Maybe I'll list some more stuff on Amazon and make it happen faster!
Can you imagine if Adam was not able to figure out what happened and could not replicate Serendipity?
My Gandalf was shipped on 10/3. I'm going to assume it's Serendipity. I get some pipe, but the majority is a cocoa/banana type thing. Hard to describe. Loaded it up in a XXL 1.7 carto to try and spend the day figuring it all out. It's almost a dessert-ish flavor right now. Also, Shadowfax has a really nice honey flavor to it. I'm not sure how I feel about Gollum yet. Letting that one stay up on the shelf until some of the perfumey notes I'm getting go away. I'm sure it's not actually perfumey, but just they way I am interpreting the different flavors.
Yeah, 10/3...that's Gandalf. I don't get honey out of Shadowfax either. I get vanilla. Don't get any "perfume" out of Gollum. All raisin to me. Is it possible some people equate raisin to perfume?

I've heard several people say "banana" now, I REALLY don't get that one.![]()
