Wow, this day like flew by quick. For me anyways. But we got a lot stuff done between chores and tossin' stuff that we don't need anymore. Shouldn't say tossed, we'll donate most of it. Cut down many boxes... destined for the burn pile.
Tea mixes! 
I haven't made any tea mixes since... last year. Need to look at my notebook. Try to figure out some new fruits to use with FA black tea, FW white tea and FE green tea.
Still need to try FA Honey with the black tea. I'll use @Katya's toothpick method with the honey.
Maybe a tea with a fruit and a nut (hazelnut / walnut???). Haven't mixed a tea with a nut yet.

When you have the time, I was wondering if I might trouble you for more advice. Where would you begin if you were to try and mix this up by description only,
Maestro by Birdsnest Elixirs
A blended coffee that is not overpowering. Warm, rich hazelnut balances the robust coffee with a touch of vanilla swirled in to further soften everything a bit. A dash of wintertime spices were mixed in to make this your go to morning treat without the calories. This flavor is meant to be a softer take on coffee.
VG/PG Ratio: 60/40
Vapor Production: Thick
Flavor Strength: Medium
Throat Hit: Light
Recommended Steep Time: Allow about 2 weeks for flavor profile to develop completely
I really liked this one when I first started vaping, but don't think that I ever really got the full taste of it with my Spinner/Vivi Nova. It has been many years since I had it so I don't think I can help much beyond the description. My memory of it is a bit foggy... cloudy... er... vaporous.
Sorry for the bother and thank you for any help!
That sounds good. It would take a proper blend of coffee,hazelnut and vanilla with spices. Good luck.
My first vape shop carried their line for maybe a year or so but then dropped them due to falling sales from what I remember.
Not sure when Birdsnest closed up shop, but found this info using the Internet Archive.
Turns out they were not more than a half an hour drive from me.
Well, doing more digging now, it appears that MamaBird was/is a member here.

It's no bother at all. Last summer we were on a coffee roll here.
Ok... without knowing what Maestro by Birdsnest Elixirs tasted like and only going on the description... here is where I would start... for a very basic stab at their juice.
FA Cappuccino 0.75%
WF Hazelnut and Cream 0.75% - 1%
TFA Vanilla Swirl 1%
That would IMO need some tweaking after a steep, maybe.
IMHO... a coffee with a vanilla... the vanilla should be brighter and offer a sweet note.
FA Cappuccino is a very excellent coffee flavor. One of the best. I would have to look at my notes for other coffee flavors.
I don't like spices in vape juice... so I can't help with that.
Other options for a hazelnut and vanillas...
FA Hazel Grove (Hazelnut) 0.25% - 0.5% --- would start @ 0.25%
FW Hazelnut 0.5% --- probably would start lower as well
FA Madagascar (Vanilla Classic) 2%
INW Shisha Vanilla 1%
Pairing a couple vanillas always works well. Examples for a coffee mix:
TFA Vanilla Swirl 0.5% with FA Madagascar (Vanilla Classic) 0.75%.
or
FA Madagascar (Vanilla Classic) 0.75% with INW Shisha Vanilla 0.5%.
Adding a cream, like FLV Cream 0.5%, would add more creaminess to the coffee, help the vanilla profile and add a pleasing mouthfeel.
And... think I talked myself into doing something with this.

Good evening. It’s much cooler today. I took the dog for her walk and have no plans of doing much tonight. I’m pretty much caught up on reviews and my youngest is coming home tomorrow with her dog for the weekend.
Nice!
For the cinnamon note I would add a single drop of FA Cinnamon Ceylon to start. You can always add more to taste as desired. It is, IMHO, the most accurate cinnamon flavor.
Per HIC's notes: FA Cinnamon Ceylon - Superb bakery cinnamon flavor, complex and true to the real spice.
As I said earlier, I don't like spices in my juice. But on rare occasion I do add a drop, or two, of FA Cinnamon Ceylon to bakery mixes.

Thank you, ShowMeTwice, once again!
It would seem that I now have a few more concentrates to fit in under my 300 flavor hard cap!

300 flavor hard cap? The other day it was a 200 flavor cap.
Before you know it you will be in Hitt's 700 Flavor Club. Or is it 800?
I’m in the no counting club.You're welcome!

Well, I mean, 400 flavors is my no-fooling-line-in-the-sand hard cap.
Unless, you know, I find that I need a little more flexibility to round out my flavor palette.
Of course, as my tastes change, I may need to consider expanding out a little bit more to... wait... how many concentrates are there?
So am I. The girls counted my flavors the other day. I watched and unsuccessfully tried to screw their count up.
