These are, at best, guesses from googling the following FA flavors.

Berberis - berberis vulgaris grows in the wild in much of Europe and West Asia. It produces large crops of edible berries, rich in vitamin C, but with a sharp acid flavour. In Europe for many centuries the berries were used for culinary purposes.

Mastiha ??? - musky and aromatic, mastiha has a distinct and refreshing earthy flavor of fresh trees, pine, and wood.

Muscat w??? - guessing that's muscat wine. What Does Muscat Taste Like? No matter how it's vinified, Muscat wines have heady tangerine, mango, lychee, jasmine, beach rose and orange blossom notes. On the palate, expect those tropical fruit notes with zesty orange and sweeter spiciness.

Pinus sibi??? - could only find pinus sibirica. Pine nuts.


Like I said those are just guesses based on what I found on Google.

    New FA flavors per Jason Khan's FB post in the DIYorDie Mixers Collective group. They're in a video and it's difficult to read some of the bottles with how he flies by them, but I'll give it a shot.

    Flavors noted with "???" means I am not able to make out something on a bottle.

    Apple Strudel FA1892
    Berberis FA1886
    Bilberry FA1856
    Blueberry FA1894
    Cactus FA1865
    Cherry FA188?
    Cola Twist FA1868
    Feijoa FA1876
    Forest Fruit FA1878
    Grape Ca?? FA1871 ---> just a guess, Ca might be Candy
    Golden Syrup FA1875
    Indian Fig FA1866
    Mastiha ??? FA1851
    Melon FA1884
    Melon Ice FA1858
    Muscat W??? FA1930
    Oatmeal C??? FA1885
    Pink Guava FA1870
    Pinus Sibi??? FA1881
    Pomegranate ??? FA1857
    Rhum Cub?? FA1933
    Strawberry ???? FA1859
    Strawberry ???? FA1877
    Strawberry Forest FA 1869
    Sea Buck??? FA1867
    Tea Earl FA1872
    Vanilla ???? FA193?

    Quite a few of those are flavors I will buy.

    Not sure if bilberry, cherry and forest fruit might be reformulated. Those are longtime FA flavors.

    No clue what berberis, mastiha ???, muscat w????, pinus sibi?, the two new strawberries or sea buck could possibly be.

    Thinking about sending Jason a message to see if he knows when these might be available.
    Several of those aren’t new.

    FA Sea Buck - guessing that's sea buckthorn. Sea-buckthorn, not to be confused with true buckthorns, is a prickly plant which produces bright orange berries featuring a unique and complex taste, with very original notes varying from sour to tart, as well as quite fruity and slightly sweet, firing up the taste buds in all sorts of directions.

    That one sounds good.

    The only ones I see that are old I noted in my post as might be reformulated. Those are bilberry, cherry and forest fruit which are longtime FA's.

    All the rest are new Flavour Art flavors that Jason received from FA. None are in HIC's notes. None are any of the ones that were released last June.

    I'm getting ready to pick up new computers and SSD sounds good for speed. For some reason I have it stuck in my mind that they don't last as long as the old style drives. Maybe I'm just out of date.

    I back up monthly to plug in hard drives and nightly to an on-line system. Never had a drive fail yet though.
    The new game I'm playing, Star Citizen, requires a SSD. Can't even play without one.

    Good morning. We got our first snow. Looks like maybe an inch or so. The road out front looks just wet. Probably still going to be a slow drive to work.
    First snow is always the worse. Be careful.

    Sounds like here, Fran, although only 25 :)

    We may see 50 sometime this week. Maybe.

    It's been said that there's two kinds of computer users, those who've had a hard drive fail, and those who will. Be prepared :)

    It wasn't bad. The temperature was 32/33 so it never froze on the roads and was just wet. However, I did spin the back tires on my jeep taking off from a stop light. My Jeep is rear wheel drive until I turn the 4 wheel drive on. My boss had them put these hankook tires on my company car last time instead of the Michelin tires we normally get and I hate them. Even new the traction wasn't great.

    Maybe you should mention that to him sometime.
