How do I make the flavor richer in taste?

[Ejuice4cig]

Hello guys,

I am having an issue, I use Flavor Art "Mangosteen" and I think I am at the highest point of flavor, if I add more, and less, the flavor become less.

I use the below

25% PG Nic (From Wizard Labs)
19.5% PG (Same as above)
1.5% of Distilled water
50% VG (Wizard labs)
4% Flavor (Mangosteen TFA)

How do I make the taste more rich? At 4%, after an hour of ultra sonic steep at 45C, the flavor is almost there but not quite where I wanted. If I reduce the flavor, or add more even at just 1%, the taste will dull.


Please help
Andy

You might try a small sample with one single drop of menthol added. Menthols brighten and lift most fruit flavors and make them pop a lot more. If you detect nothing, use another drop, and so on until you find out if it'll work for you.

If that's not it, what about the flavor is dull? Not sweet enough? Not enough mango? No undertones to the flavor?

The first, add a bit of sweetener.

The second, try a different mango--that one may just be weak.

The third...that's the rub. I actually find that a touch of milk chocolate (0.5% or less) adds complexity to some flavors where it lacks something, but tastes differ. If you can identify in what dimension the flavor is off, that will tend to indicate what to add to make it work.

Do you have FA Fresh Cream? It'll give a fullness to it. I have the mangosteen flavor. It's very light. Light fruits aren't my thing usually, but I like them mixed with other flavors.... vanillas, creams, cookies. Cookie wouldn't necessarily apply here, lol.

Use $100 bill for a wick... Sorry couldn't resist.........Use TFA Vanilla Swirl, it works for me to give full body and rich mouth feel.

I like to add 1-0.5% vodka to my fruit flavors. Vodka is basically grain alcohol and distill water.

FA Mangosteen is not a bold flavor; neither is the actual fruit. You could pick a note in the flavor to emphasize and add more of that (like Pear, Apple, or the other flavors you detect). You could boost it with any Lychee flavor, which shouldn't change the overall flavor very much. You could try a touch of FA Liquid Amber, which is often used to add something to fruits. You could make a tropical fruit blend by adding as little as 0.5% each of fruits like Guava, Persimmon, Lychee, Passionfruit. FA Passionfruit is strongly flavored and I think would go well as a tiny addition to Mangosteen. I personally wouldn't add any cream or vanilla, just because I can't imagine eating real mangosteen with those things.
