I do not have both of that flavors, but to me, after extensive sampling and steeping VZ Blackberry (at the recommended percentages) tastes like Blackberry Sweet Tarts- candyish on its own-- perhaps a different taste when used as a secondary flavor.

Thanks! Sounds like it might be similar to the other one... most people seem to think they taste like the real thing, and a few people (like us) get a candyish taste.
I just want one fruit that I can sometimes add (very small amount) to a rich tobacco recipe. Maybe I'll look into another fruit.

The Apricot is a good one, and I think the Rum Raisin is another. I'm steeping the Rum Raisin and it smells very nice.

Has anyone tried the Caramel Candy yet? Would love to hear about it.
The Candy Caramel has a tangy note to it, and it's sweet. The texture was also lacking, so I added 1 drop of the original Caramel, and I like it much better now. The Caramel candy is a good flavor, but I'm so used to the other Caramel with that toasty bite.

I believe there is still a chance the blackberry could work for you in a mix. A few fruits that are not great solo for me, do pretty well next to tobaccos. So it may be worth a shot =)

Thanks, those both sound good. I'll have to pick one when I make my next order (my list is already getting too big, and it's going to be tough deciding which flavors to get).

I did try it in a couple of tobacco mixes. It's not bad, but it almost reminds me of a grape flavored tobacco.

Thanks for the info Jimi. I had trouble with that "toasty bite" in the Caramel, so was hoping the Caramel Candy would taste more like ..... a piece of caramel candy?

Am I missing something or does VZ only have 100% pg or vg nic? I like to get 50/50 nic juice. If somebody's around, please let me know as I'm about to click the button... still not sure what bacco I'm getting besides HFC. Getting more real cig and trying the coffee for my better half.

Thanks!
Email them, and I'm sure they could help you...:)

I'm 6 days into steeping on my first batches of Blackberry, Banana, Peach, Apricot, Mandarin, Black & Mild, French Pipe, and Honey Flue Cured. They all keep getting better. I added a couple more drops per 10ml on my HFC, and the French pipe. They were good but I like my tobacco's very pronounced and those two seemed a little light to me, but may get too sting with more steeping, we will see.
My wife is a big lover of real blackberries but said the blackberry reminded her more of rasberry than blackberry. I don't really eat either, but the juice tastes great to me. I get overloaded by the fruit flavors alone after an hour or so of vaping so I prefer them mixed into the tobacco. Just a couple mixes I'm loving now is: 1 part Blackberry in 3 parts French Pipe (you gotta try this, it is incredible). Another I love is 1 part banana in 4 parts B&M.
The shipping from them is remarkable, I usually get stuff 2 days after ordering. The accidentally sent me a 5ml bottle of blackberry instead of a 10ml bottle. I let them know and instead of sending another 5ml bottle they sent a 10ml bottle of blackberry, and a free sample of Licorish that was around 3 or 4ml. Great customer service. I got a bottle of 100mg nic and the apple flavor I ordered from them yesterday. I'm gonna mix them up and let you know since I haven't heard much about the apple.

An Update: I had gotten the Caramel superconcentrate from VZ a month ago and when I mixed it up I was shocked to find that it was not a caramel candy type taste at all and the taste at 2.5% was overwhelming and awful. But last night I tried an experiment and mixed a drop of it into the DIY Caramel Candy mix that I make and wow, it has given my Caramel Candy mix a fantastic depth and I love it. My DIY Caramel Candy mix doesnt use VZ's Caramel Candy because I dont have any of that, it's a mix I make using several other flavorings and has been my all-day vape for 8 months. Adding 1 drop of VZ's Caramel per 6ml of my own mix is an experiment I'm glad I tried and will continue to do .. hooray!

Any reports on the Parliment Super Concentrated Flavor? and how did this thread get knocked to the bottom of the page? You Vz guys & gals all go to Disneyland??? lol...

I would like to hear about this one too Mr. Beo. I was told it was a dry non-sweet type which might be just what some people are looking for as a neutral kind of base to add other flavors to. If anyone gets any others of the new tobaccos I want to hear about it please.

I will have to try this. EM & Caramel Candy at very low percentage is one of my neutral go to vapes that I always have on hand.
