Random DIY mixing and More

[Letitia]

The grape floral I mixed at 10 1/2% flavor and I'm thinking I may like a bit more grape in it. Or maybe just a different grape?

I like LA grape clear to boost the Purilum wg. The LA is more a mix of white and red grape to me. Also has a subtle floral note.

Fran you might try dropping the cactus and raise the Concord to 1.5. Haven't tried that grape so not sure. I have 2 FE grapes to taste, the Grape I don't think I will like, finger test tastes like Welsh's grape juice, yuck.

What would your favorite grape be?

 

[Letitia]

Purilum wg and FW grape.

I have the FW grape on my wishlist along with the Quince.

Quince is a love or hate flavor. More an additive for me. Going to try it in a greek yogurt next as a main note with passion fruit. I know you don't do yogurt.

The same with caramel.

Maybe this is why you don't like RY4?

Could be I guess but I just don't like the flavor of it. Hangsen Ry3 is my fav mixer though.

No yogurt. I almost puked----no kidding.

Can you describe the taste of quince? I know it probably won't taste the same to me but reviews sometimes help.

Pam, try quince for some juiciness in place of cactus. Strong flavor, .25% is a good starting point.

Yes, what is this quince please?

Dug in the back of my steeping drawer and came up with a juice mixed in 2015. Thought I'd gotten rid of all the real old stuff but I guess not.Another mixing bottle. Grabbed another bottle and I'll be trying a Raspberry Chocolate Cheesecake today.

I just mention it because if you can't taste the caramel then RY4 would taste completely different to you than it does to me. You'd probably just taste overly-sweet tobacco. And you aren't a fan of sweet anyway. Just an odd curiosity.

I do think I should try the RY3. I just wonder what the profile is like. What's it good in?

I spent much time reading the posts from @Letitia and @NolaMel about floral vapes. All I could think of was yuck but after awhile my curiosity got the best of me and I PMed Letitia for more info.Ended up mixing 2 small bottles of floral,a grape and an orange.I didn't expect to like these at all. I've have the grape in a small tank for a couple days and very much surprised to be enjoying the mix. I don't think florals will ever have ADV statis but you never know. Orange comes up next.

Same thoughts as you had towards the florals. Before I started DIY, I had one I didn’t try for a while after realising it had floral notes. When I did eventually try it, I actually enjoyed it. It was OM Vapers Lotus... white miso, peach, pear & apple with floral notes. I haven’t tried mixing with any florals yet but certainly interested. I’ve tried a couple simple honeysuckle mixes but haven’t found the one for me yet. So, good stuff to note (for me) from this thread!

As far as I can see so far Hangsen Ry3 is a good mixer in whatever I've tried so far. Hangsen Fortune Strike is another good one.

This is the orange floral I have mixed but haven't tried yet.

ORANGE BLOSSOM from Letitia but think I tweaked it a bit.

FA Blood Orange 2%
TFA Honeysuckle 3%
FA Jasmine 2%
FA Orange 2%
FA Mandarine 2%

But, anyone tried any Euro flavors?
I ordered a couple last night, milk chocolate & yellow mango. Just wondering if any insight available?

One thing that's been bugging me. Are Signature and TFA the same? ECX has (TFA) in parentheses next to the names of the Signature flavors. So is Signature a special line by TFA or are they just the same?

Depends on who you ask! I personally don’t know yet.
