Searching the lost vanilla....

[epfeiffer]

I've started to vape a month ago and went to South Africa on a business trip. There I found a supplier called Twisp and since I've tried everything, got the chance to taste their vanilla. I fall in love with it and bought 5 or 6 10 ml bottles. Now I'm running out of them and want to find a similar one here in Barcelona. I know Twisp is re labeling the Janty products and send emails to both of them with this question with no success. Janty is not answering and Twisp offers to ship them to me (UHG!!). I've bought several vanillas here including the 2 available in Janty France but the taste is not even close to the Twisp one.
If any body can help giving me a clue where to find the same or similar vanilla that Twist is selling in SA here in Europe, I will really appreciate.

Could you tell us a little about the taste?
Maybe there is another make similar to the one you want.

I'm not very skilled describing the taste but it is a very sweet flavor which leaves a like Hagen Daas "Dulce de Leche" at the end.
I'm crazy about this ice cream and this is probably the reason why I love it the vanilla.

Have you tried Grants Vanilla Custard? Very good.
I know Pink Mule in Spain is selling this.
GRANTS VANILLA CUSTARD

Ever tried mixing a touch of Dulce de leche in with some of your Vanilla? Just a thought.

I will try the vanilla custard, searching for mine I found many good comments about this flavor.

(Speagtoast) Do you mean the actual Dulce de Leche Ice cream to be mixed up with the e-liquid?

No no. Dulce de Leche ejuice. I got some from Mount Baker Vaper

I use vanilla bean ice cream from flavor apprentice, very strong smell and flavor.

I want some now

I don' t know the Vanilla you are talking about. However, a lot of new vapers love the Vanilla they get in their Blu's, and what can they do to get close to that? Johnson Creek Vanda is the Vanilla found in the Blu's, just a different name. JC makes it for them, or licenses it to them. Have some myself and quite yummy. Best!

Vanilla bean ice cream is quite different from Vanilla
Makes an excellent base for Strawberry ice cream.

Been Vaping a DIY version of that for 2 days and in 11 months of Vaping, I never stay with one flavor for more than a few hours.
It is THAT GOOD

Sounds like a Madagascar vanilla with cream or vanilla and a light hint of caramel mixed in, on the sweet side. Rich, very vanilla, creamy finish. Don't know who sells it like that but, I make it that way. You may want to look into DIY and use a good food grade Madagascar vanilla, the LorAnns or Watkins for the other flavors to get a readily available supply of what you like.

I will receive this pm the Custard Vanilla and will let you know, but it seems I also missed the DK Vanilla from Janty. I will need to order this one to make sure all the Janty vanillas aren't the Twisp one. Then, the million dollar question for me is, where are the Twisp fellows getting this vanilla?
Thanks all for the help.

 

[spegtoast]

I would be suprised that if it exists, it hasent been mentioned here at ECF somewhere.

bill....
Thanks much for the JC info!!
Like so many others....the Blu vanilla is one of my favs!!
RE: OP's mention of South Africa vanilla source.....IMHO, it may be VERY hard to find a vanilla that really replicates that flavor...as SA (Madagascar) vanilla is among the world's finest!!
BTW....just started vaping this past week....and now playing with flavors....Can't go TOO crazy...fixed income and all....!

 

[epfeiffer]

Thanks all for the input, I've finally ordered the Janty DK vanilla and it is very similar to the one in South Africa.
It seems I don't need to go to Pretoria every time I run out of juice.
Nevertheless, there is still some final taste not present but I'm sure it needs a touch of caramel or custard or dulce de leche.
I will try and keep posting.
Thanks again.

Good to hear

I have some new flavors from Hangsen. I think i'll try mixing vanilla and TFA dulce de leche. I've heard people saying of late the Hangsen Vanilla is very good - better than the others they have tried.

I've experienced that when I liked a flavor and ordered the same a month later,,,it tasted different.
SO I prefer to DIY.
I know your looking at a quick fix to getting your favorite vanilla,,,but you can try this for the long haul.

Take a vannilla bean, slice it longways , place in a jar with either PG or VG and wait 3 months. This will give you the best vanilla extract you can find. Hope this helps you.
