Medicine Flower TRUE Natural organic flavors C02 extraction

[veganvap]

I did a search here on Medicine Flower but didn't find any titled thread for them, so making one here.

The significance of this company's method vs most other 'natural organic flavors' is outlines in the linked thread. Basically it actually comes from banana/strawberry c02 extraction instead of most natural organic flavors coming from natural plant sources but not the actual titled flavor, instead those are made from like scraping bark off trees and digging up roots leaving plants to die and then highly refining those sources to get compounds that technically might be chemicals at that point and that happen to taste like a banana/strawberry etc.

Cost more than a lot of other 'Natural organic' flavors but is highly concentrated and thus might produce the same amount of juice per dollar.

I am using Medicnineflower Strawberry right now -- but in my carbonated water! Just 3 drops, haha. For real, but Medicineflower is great for eliquid too, but it's not really a flavoring company that you can splurge on too many flavors considering the price (like >$20 for a 15 mL, and that's not including shipping). It's mighty tasty though.

p.s. I saw this thread pop up at the top of the e-liquid forum, but this is basically DIY stuff. There has been some info in the DIY forum about MF. Actually, Opensource Vapor uses MF as pre-made eliquid). Check them out: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...edients-recipes-percentages-alcohol-free.html

I got my flavors today. almost $75 for 1.5oz of flavoring. I sent a note during checkout 'send freebees first time customer' and got a tiny bottle with like 12 drops of coconut and one with 12 drops of dark chocolate.

I did these all on the same coil with a drip tank and cotton wick, so I couldn't completely dry burn the previous flavor away, especially the jasmine, which sort of skews the reviews but I got a good sense for them. In order, I did banana, jasmine, mango, coconut, dark chocolate. I did like 6 drops of %100VG 10MG and 2 drop of flavor which is %25 flavor and plenty.

Banana is good, definitely way better than Nature's Flavors organic banana which I find pretty much all of their many flavors I've tried to be unvape'able to me, but on par with ECBlend $10 for a 30ml of premixed organic natural banana juice.

Jasmine was bad, too perfumey and has a harsh flavor despite being alcohol free. Nature's Flavors jasmine is worse. Virgin Vapors premixed organic natural jasmine is the only one I like.

Mango is really good, better than Capella's which is the only other mango I've had which I really like.


Coconut is good, about as good if not better than ECB's organic that I can remember, definitely better than Nature's Flavor organic 3X coconut and Capellas artificial coconut which I don't like.

Dark chocolate is really good, the only other chocolate I've had was ECBs non-dark chocolate which I didn't like.




Overall, if you can find Medicine Flower flavors you like, you might be able to find an artificial that tastes as good/better for a fraction of the price, but I guess the selling point is that these are actually derived from the titled flavor organic plant (except butterscotch and caramel which start with raw organic cream), which is cool and like some private reserve type stuff and probably safer.

One thing I have learned about MF for flavoring in eliquid (and strong flavors in general) is that dilution will be your friend! Diluted way below one drop. Add of diltuion of MF into your eliquid and then you can really "control" the stronger flavors. I make a 10% dilution in PG and then begin with that in my eliquid base (sometimes going below 10% for the initial dilution). You may be surprised how the flavors still strongly come through, but without in off/perfume notes.

I'm loving the chocolate. I haven't really gotten to the other flavors for a daily vape. I might be hooked on $22 15ml flavors.

after vaping the mango for a few days, I think I like capella's better, but it's nice that MFs are derived from actual mangos. The other reviews I still think most people would agree with though.
