Real Flavors

[Kenna]

No idea when the rest of what I ordered will come. We got pounded with snow on the east coast... and our mail here isn't quick as it is I just want what I ordered from Michigan at this point.

Weather delaying vapemail stinks for sure. Makes you start thinking in terms of can you make it to the PO, would they give it to me if I made it there, woukd I have to go all the way to the Troy PO? Then shrug, realizing none of that is going to happen, so waiting it is! Ivm not looking for mine until Saturday, or next week if it's snowed in somewhere.

Thank you I'm going to try it with the capellas flavor I have but getting the INW next order.

Once you try the Inw custard,you may never touch that bottle of Capella's again haha.They make the absolute best custard i have ever tried,i ordered the rf custard to compare though,so we'll see.

Urgh... I still need to mix that one. Lol. So many flavors I haven't mixed up yet.

I received my first two orders today packed very nice in a yellow envelope inside a nice box, two hard pet plastic bottles in each package, no droppers no twist caps or pipettes, (not that it matters to me as I will either transfer to a dropper bottle or use a fresh syringe to mix with.) They could have saved a lot packaging them together and still charged separate shipping. The box it shipped in was about the size of a small flat rate box, and could have fit 12 1 oz. bottles. I will mix these as singles at 2% to see were they are at. so far I have White Chocolate, Blue Raz, Yumberry and Brownie, with Shortbread, Taffy, And beta Blueberry pastry on the way. looking forward to trying these, they all smell great.

The brownie I mixed at 1.5% is spot on after just a day or two steeping. Can't wait to use it in some recipes. I saw some will add a little more chocolate to it. I don't have the RF SC Chocolate yet (I do have the White Chocolate which is good, but a bit light) but I was thinking of trying the brownie with cookies and cream or maybe deep fried oreo.

I don't have the recipe by me, but it uses Cap fudge brownie with FA Zeppola and a few other Chocolates and OSDIY Luckyshot to make a really good chocolate glazed doughnut, I initially subbed the Cap fudge brownie with brownie by ecx fudge brownie and it was really good, If this sound interesting look up FUDGEGAZI by Amy*** on a popular eliquid recipe site. After I solo test the RF I might try with this also.

Trust me,if you like custard then it's worth bumping it to the top of the list.I haven't tried it standalone,but i have Kenna's recipe with it mixed with aged bourbon cream steeping,and i have vaping a bunch of it mixed with shisha vanilla,which is another recipe i found posted here on the forum.

Mine arrived on time. All nestled safe in 3 std cardboard shipping boxes.

There needs to be a thread on how to reuse that size shipping box. They look like they should be useful for something.

lol. i got my 2nd package today and 3rd package finally got tracking ifo updated yesterday and should be here tomorrow. just mixed up testers of bread pudding v1 and cinnamon roll v1. taste test is good so hopefully they vape better than the v2's I mixed last week. bread pudding in vg was really good so I had high hopes for it in sc but the v2 hasn't delivered yet.

Well I have to say my initial test at 2.0% have exceeded my expectations on Brownie,Blue raz, and Yumberry. White Chocolate looks promising as a mixer and a bit of a steeper, but I still got that palmer type easter bunny white chocolate from it fresh at 2% standalone not really strong at all but noticeable, the real test is how they stand up to a steep and how they mix with others, but I have to say If and when I buy again it will be the S.C. line for sure. With steep time and volume used it is a win. But the true test will come with steep and how they play with other flavors, so far the first three are really good stand alone fresh.

 

[FranC]

I should have all 3 of my orders tomorrow.

 

[Clark Kent]

I think you will be happy Fran, I know I am quite happy with them, especially after the initial let down of the vg flavors and what I was looking for. These S.C's let you mix mix with INW strength. With good accuracy for the flavor called for. I like higher V.G. and these are quite true to there name. happy mixing!.

 

[FranC]

I have a handful of the vg flavors. Love the French Vanilla Cappuccino and Aged Bourbon cream.

 

[Fozzy71]

the real test is how they stand up to a steep and how they mix with others

I have some French Toast SC @ 3.5% in rotation right now that was mixed in October that still tastes great. I don't have any SC recipes that old but in my steep cabinet I have 4 bottles aging from my single flavor tests when I ordered 24 new flavors, then mixed 6 each of the testers together in 4 x 120ml bottles to free up my testing bottles, and I expect those to be just fine when I get around to vaping them even though the overall percentage in those will be more like 1.5 or 2% for the various combined testers in each bottle. Worst case if they are a little weak at that total percentage I will just add a little more of one or 2 of the flavors that were in the mixed bottles to up the total flavor percentage.

My VG Apple Pie and Aged Bourbon Cream batches @ 15% from early November that I have in rotation are tasting more and more like unflavored VG to me.

I don't deny and should not have said let down but the vg flavors, but there percentage used along with a very, no, very, very long steep have have left me not so satisfied, Not that they are not good but the wait time for a mix for me is a good month at least to get to the flavor desired, I mix for others too and to try, mix and wait is kind of a pain. I am a kind of I want it now person I must admit. I mixed a cherry pie that I know is great after a nice long steep, for somebody and got the, it's ok maybe it need to steep. a month later I asked them if they still had it ad did they try it and they said it was great when the went back and tasted it. I can accept a week or two steep but when it comes to the next best thing I am on it. If I had the resources and space I would def consider mixing up a boat load and letting sit for a month or two before (giving it away) I have to say the best VG flavors I did have buy RF are Bread Pudding and Cherry Pie, but they took a while to get there. and the hard part was they got stronger after the steep so it was hard to gauge it.

What % did you make your cherry pie at?I can't remeber for sure,but i think my tester was at around 15% and all i really tasted after a month was crust with a very faint cherry taste.I plan to try a new mix of it,but haven't made it there yet.

 

[Clark Kent]

@fozzie how have any out comes came with mixing with the like s of F.A. INW, MF, or any others of the stronger flavors from any company hold up? I see you mix alot with S.C. but I was wondering how they mix with some of the others, or if you have tried yet, if so what your opinion is on how they play.

 

[Clark Kent]

12% cherry was there , crust was up front though, I waited and tested for about a month, with more of the crust coming into play as I waited I was looking the cherry to shine, but it did not, sadly I have not found a cherry yet to fill the void of a solid cherry, or cherry candy for that matter, I know of other additives that are supposed to boost cherry, like Amber and a few others I have tried many. But I find this is one of the hardest fruits to master. It is either medicinal or weak. the closest I have came to cherry is cherries By INW and that is for a back ground flavor, both TFA cherries I tried were horrid, like really bad even at dilution level, F.A black cherry has its uses as a kind of black cherry koolaid flavor, flavorah pulled their bing cherry and was supposed to send me a replacement, (never did) side note, they made me mad with that one!! BTW Rainer sucks. Called and asked spoke to the owner never received. so., so, that leaves FW as the winners for Cherry, Sad but True. I did happen to try try RF Red candy and It was also not all that. so please if you have a better option for cherry please share BTW Rainer sucks. I mean Flavorah, sorry for the confusion, Rainer was not a RF flavor.
