How about a big thread for Flavorart

[sketchness]

I personally haven't had a fruit I didn't like fresh, steep into something I liked. They sort of mellow over time or the bakery notes come out if I have added those. Or the vanilla becomes more prominent. The harsh notes of certain flavors fade or just fade altogether.

Haven't tried banana yet.

If you like blueberry here is the blueberry to die for. Not real cheap but real good and free shipping. No chemicals or anything just blueberry.

Natural Blueberry Flavor Concentrate

Thanks for the blueberry suggestion. And, Oh, no -- another flavor company.

Seriously, just as you said you weren't going to buy more flavors until you've used what you've got, I've got to stop buying flavors until I put some time into working with the ones I've already got. My biggest success so far hasn't been DIY, it's be re-cycling older juice. I had some high-nic freeze-your-sinuses, mentholate-your-eyeballs mint that I reduced by 2/3 with base, added chocolate & a bit of cookie, and got a large bottle of something very pleasant. Unfortunately, it's not something I can reproduce.

@NoFumus muddy is a perfect way to describe FA pear. Or at least my experience. I need to revisit it at maybe 1%.

Good to know. How about which ever one of us tests it at different levels first reports back?

You got it. And I have given up on not buying flavors. I just try to keep it in check. I did get 2 too sample from nude nicotine: omfg chocolate and patchouli vanilla. I want to find a chocolate vape that doesn't taste like tootsie rolls

Just checked and I have pear, but Flavor West... Not tried it yet.

I have heard that Molinberry Deluxe Chocolate is good. Not tried it myself though, do not have any Molinberry stuff at all.

omfg chocolate

Is that the flavor's name or your response to it?

The name of the flavor

Many ingredients used in flavorings are that way to me.
And I shudder to even think about nutrisweet and it's ilk!
Sucralose does not have a physical impact on me like Nutrasweet but tastes like chemicals.

Yeah, so many companies use artificial flavoring which I try to stay away from as much as possible. I have some Ethyl Maltol ("cotton candy") which I bought some time ago to use as a sweetener but it still doesn't provide the type of subtle sweetness I'm looking for so I stopped using it since I already achieve a certain amount of natural sweetness from my 85% VG DIY juice.

FA Pear is strong. 2% is the highest I would ever go with that one because it will over power all your other flavorings.

And so it begins:

My bottles look different. Actually I have 2 different types of bottles. ONe with a flat pop top and one same shape as those but with orange lid and different but original label...

$2.99 / 12ml from eLiquidMart. I'm sure they buy in much larger bottles and re-bottle.

Yeah mine are 10 ML. Could be repackages, I dunno.

The two orange lid styles are original packaging. There is also a much older style with a white cap and really large dropper that is great. My first FA flavors are from a year ago and they have changed twice since then LOL. The ones Rossum has are rebottled

Thanks for the info.
The price Rossum got is pretty good though. I think I paid more for 10ml at BCV.

 

[sketchness]

Yep 2.99 per 12 ml is a good deal for sure. Bcv is mostly 2.99\10ml rebottled. Some flavors are much more.

Two of the flavors I get are made by FA, the other one is made by TFA. All three I get from MyFreedomSmokes, where I get my base (PG/VG/Nic) from. The flavors all have white caps, that look slightly different than the ones on bottles from the manufacturers directly. Of course, all three labels look pretty much the same, with the MFS logo on them, and I'm sure they're re-bottled.

Has anyone else used FA Caramel & FA Butterscotch?

A few weeks ago I started using them, not overly impressed initially, but I think there may be potential.
At low percentages (2% or so) the Caramel is pretty weak, just tastes like sugar water to me, rather than a nice rich caramel. 3-4% seems to be better, almost need to visit a dentist after vaping it.
The butterscotch is so much stronger, around 1% seems to be about right. 2% and it is getting towards tasting like liquorice.

Personally I would not vape either on their own, but the two combined makes a good base for a sweet recipe.
