Inawera Flavors?

[jwquantrell]

Will you give us an example or break down of why you like these tobacco flavors. What are the characteristics that make you like each flavor. I want to order some of these but would like to have a comparison of how the different flavors are similar to juices that are more main stream here in the US. Any input would be great.
Thanks

OMG you want me to work?!?!

OK, I have been pretty busy lately, but I will try to give you a break down real soon. I have to say that I can't compare them to other juices that are more main stream here in the US as I decided early on to DIY, and I have only tried premade from three vendors. (Mrs. T's, Halo, and V4L) I can, however, give you a comparison to other flavorings made by TPA, Flavourart, and Totally Wicked.

Regards
Jim

I use all of those flavorings as well so that would be great. I really like Halo Freedom and T/Wicked m/borough works well at making that flavor in DIY form. So any input would be great. Again thanks.

Bumping this back up to the top. Hoping to get some comparisons for these flavors.

 

[Mr. Buttflakes]

Wish I could help ya out but really havn't tried many tobacco's from vendors like halo and such. I find inawera ok but not enough to stop me from looking for my own personal favorite tobacco flavoring, but then again that may never end.

OK, I will do my best to give you an idea of my thoughts on these flavors. I am going to preface this by saying that I am not, by any stretch of the imagination, a flavor connoisseur. I do not taste something, whether it is food, drink, or eliquid and think to myself that this could use a little more of this or that. I simply either like something, or I don’t.

That being said, you have commented that you want a comparison to what you may already be familiar with. I have in my DIY supplies flavorings from Capellas, Lorrans, TPA, Totally Wicked Patriot Range, and Flavourart bought directly from Flavourart in Italy. Not just one or two of each, but a wide variety from each supplier.

Prior to buying these flavors my favorite tobacco vape was the Totally Wicked Patriot range M/borough flavor. I couldn’t get enough of it. I rotated that with the apple peanut butter flavor that I make. After getting these, I still vape the apple peanut butter daily, but I have a 30 ml bottle of the Totally Wicked that isn't getting vaped. I did vape some of it yesterday and it still tastes good to me, just not as good if you know what I mean.

I mix the Inawera flavors at 5% flavoring and that seems to work for me. The Wera Gardens flavors I tried to do at 3%, and that was way too strong. I went with 1% and much to my surprise that works. So, your first comparison is they are way stronger than any that I have used. I mix Flavourart at 6%, Totally Wicked at 12%, TPA at 15% to 20%, Capellas at 15%, and Lorrans at 20%.

I have bought, and tried the following flavors from Inawera Flavors:

1.Gold Ducat – Sweet taste. No grassy that I can tell. Too sweet for an all day imo.
2.USA Red Mix – Has a cocoa undertone. Grows on you, but not one of my favorites.
3.Nutty Princess – Sweet, somewhat nutty taste. Good enough to vape all day.
4.Don Hill – Kind of a cigar type taste. I don’t like cigars, but I can vape this, just not all day.
5.Virginia – One of my favorites. Very slight hay taste, but very good. All day vape.
6.Tobacco “C” – Another favorite of mine. Vaping it right now and still can’t describe it. All day vape for sure.
7.Dark Fire – This is a Wera Gardens flavor and I think that I taste licorice. OK, but I wouldn’t vape it all day.
8.Desert Voyager – This is a Wera Gardens flavor and I can’t describe the taste but it is good. If this is their rendition of Desert Ship then Wera wins by a mile.
9.Tobacco Symphony – Wera Gardens flavor. Slight Hay taste, but not overpowering and pretty good. I could vape it all day quite easily.
10.Tuscan Garden – Wera Gardens Flavor. If you like “roll your own” tobacco like Top or Bugler you will love this. Very strong and insane throat hit. Not my favorite, but I have smoked my share of “roll your own” and this taste you can’t forget. Not an all day vape for me.
11.Sharp Taste – Wera Gardens flavor. To me this is similar to Tuscan, but less pronounced.
12.Oriental – Nice mellow taste. Can’t describe it, but I could vape it all day.
13.Tobacco – Same as above. Good taste, and easy all day vape. One of my favorites.
14.Burly – Another favorite. Mellow taste that I can’t describe, but all day vape easily.
15.American Type – Bleh. Too much hay for me. Not sure why I am American and all the American type flavors taste bad to me.
16.Canadian Type – This is ok and a nice change of pace, but I wouldn’t want it to be my all day vape.

I made up 10ml test samples of all the above flavors once I received them. All were tasted with direct dripping onto a 2.1 ohm 510 atomizer at at 4.7 volts on my Provari.

I hope that this is what you were looking for NC. I am sorry that I can’t be more colorful and descriptive in my review, but I never really wanted to be a reviewer. I just wanted folks to know that there is a flavor manufacturer out there that, in my humble opinion, is doing a good job making flavors for the vaping community.

Jim

Postscript: OMG you made me type a lot!!

 

[ncvaping]

Thanks JW. This is what I was looking for. I myself love TW's M/borough. So that being said would you say that it is a safe bet for me to order some of the Virginia and Tobacco"c". I was a roll your own smoke smoker at times and did like the taste of Bugler so I would have to guess that the Tuscan Garden would be a good choice for me as well. Again thanks. Once I place an order and it arrives I will post my results here as well.

Ya, I would say to try the Virginia, Tobacco C, and the Burley for sure. The Desert Voyager may be a good one for you to try also. As cheap as they are I was willing to try a lot of them.

Good review JW!

I did buy all of their non-menthol tobaccos, wera garden and normal. Did get to test the wera garden 9 flavors, SharpTaste is just an aditive for flavor, much like VapeWizard from FVA, not a flavor in itself.Much like @jwquantrell I'm not a flavor expert.
I like the strength of these flavors, 2.5% (1drop/2ml) is more than enough to really feel them, for some is a bit too much. They share the same cocoa/chocolate base taste.
I won't try to describe them, for some it's really hard to be described, like Tuscan Garden which I named "the dearly beloved wet sweet thing", think about wet licorice from a summer's rain definately not my kind of flavor, but others really love it.
Just go ahead and buy them all, they are insanely cheap, 44 flavors (Inawera and FVA) 55 bottles 4pipettes and shipping was about $100, so it's not woth the shipping and waiting for buying just a few. My 2 cents.

 

[MaxUT]

Nice descriptions Jim! Just what I was looking for.

I haven't ordered any of these yet since I still have a lot of FA tobacco flavorings (several are 30mL sizes) but am very curious about Inawera. I hope a US site starts stocking these soon.

 

[JewelzBagz]

Based on this thread, I placed an order from inawera. Thank you for posting all this great info. The prices are amazing compared to what I've seen from other manufacturers/vendors, and if so little of the flavoring is needed comparatively, then the prices are truly out of this world. Granted the shipping is higher than I've spent elsewhere, but the coupon code I found in another thread helped to bring it down to a reasonable price. Now I anxiously await my order and hope that I will have some success knocking down the many bottles of 24mg juice I've got sitting in a drawer. Thanks again!

 

[Tetsab]

Just wanted to add my thanks to Jim, too. Never mind how much typing was involved, although it comes down to a line or two for each of the flavours this does represent quite a lot of work actually mixing up and trying this many different ones. Simple and straightforward impressions rather than long exotic descriptions resembling wine-tasting notes are probably the most helpful ones in actual fact. These will certainly inform my own selection from what sounds to be a very interesting new (to me) supplier, so I'm most grateful for your efforts.

I will also look forward to comments from any other members who are kind enough to share their own opinions on these and any others flavours from Inowera - so here's a thankyou-in-advance for anyone else kind enough to spare the time as Jim has done!

 

[Papa Lazarou]

Yes nice one Jim I intended to write a bit more on the ones I bought, but I've not got round to mixing them all up yet. Too many flavours, not enough time (and empty bottles )

 

[jwquantrell]

Thanks for the kind words folks. I would be very interested in hearing from the others of you who ordered these flavors. If nothing else, just to see if you are as impressed with them as I am.

Regards
Jim

 

[chrismp]

Anyone tried any fruit or sweet flavours yet?

Looking like a good option, good sizes, awesome price and very reasonable shipping.

Will likely be trying these guys out asap

 

[eyebrook]

Im trying the coffees, trying to get the ratios that suit me, did a 10% cappuccino with 5% vanilla, found it just a little sweet, but I dont have a sweet tooth, so will reduce the vanilla a bit next time, now on a mocca and cream at 8% and 2.5%, its a little dry, but both have taste, so I think I can tweak them to something really nice, Good value for money IMO

 

[Nails]

Anyone tried any fruit or sweet flavours yet? ...

Really not good in describing flavours but here some of my own impressions.

I am using the general ratio for their fruit aromas, 2 drops per 1 ml.
Lemon - tastes like lemon, I like lemon ;
melon - really melony and delicious to me;
wild strawberry - a bit different from the other strawberry I have (FA), not sure if that is the taste of wild strawberry but I like it;
black berry - omnomnom, even 2 drops per ml come strong for me;
smoked plum - errm, just smoked plum;
banana - well, banana, nice thick aroma.


As for some of the others, can't add much to the professional comments above but here it is.

Nutty princess - sweet, nutty but also buttery to me, still keeping it on front line and thinking on mixing with dark chocolate.
Falcon eye - can't figure it out at all, I love it, I fell something fruity in it, some tabacco, lightly sweet.
Dark fire - sweeter than above, also hard for me to define. When I read there is a smoked plum and tobacco in it, I agreed.

PG ecobaza - 38 mg/ml PG base - no parasite tastes, pepper and such.

Have about 2 dozens of their bottles and waiting for some more, now where do I get some more free time

Brilliant Nails thanks for your thoughts

Just made an order and got a bunch of the way. Will definitely be reporting back on what I think of them.

Would you compare them to FA with concentration amounts and general quality?

Cheers

Could you share the coupon code, please? The prices look to be about the same as PA to me?

The code I used was: DISCO

Looks like it was for 10%
