Stand-alone flavors

[scrubzz]

I've been reading here for quite a bit now and decided to finally delve into DIY - I have PG and VG ordered as well as some nic - I plan to start out with single flavors and then ease into some of the simpler recipes that sound the best to me from the recipe section - to start things out my question here is, what are your favorite stand-alone flavors? Those that are tasty by themselves or maybe just a touch of sweetener? Thanks for your replies

everyone has their own favorite but I like black honey tobacco (tfa) but this needs to steep for 2 or 3 weeks to develop the proper taste. I also like bavarian cream (lorann) but these are just my preferences.you will need to try different flavors to find one you like

Blueberry and watermelon are my two fav stand alone flavors. I sweeten with a bit of Stevia. Use sucralose if it works ok for you.

Tfa watermelon, ry4d, berry crunch, juicy peach are all pretty good as stand alones. I know there's more, I'm just at work and cant think of them.
Cap vanilla custard original version is also great as a stand alone

I love vaping Zone's Gourmet and Super Concentrated flavorings. Their peach to me is the best I have ever had because it tastes just like the fruit and not a candy or jello. You also use 1-3% in a recipe so I think it is more economical. Just my 3¢ (inflation). I stopped adding sweeteners to my DIY because it seemed to me my coils had less gunk without it and lasted longer. This is just my own observation of course. I know others love to use it with no problems.

Tfa cantaloupe,Tfa vanilla bean gelato,and Capella blueberry crumble are all good standalone flavors.

TFA Honeydew at about 15%. It's really close to Fuzion's 'Spartan Wives', just missing that little extra something that gives it the sparkle of Spartan Wives.

Inawera Cappuccino Tobacco, Capella Sugar Cookies, FW Blubacco all good stand alone juices IMO

TFA Hazelnut with just a bit of EM/sweetener is a really good stand alone flavor for me.

Rainbow Sherbet FW - have been making this for a year and still love it. Great citrus and also good with a bit of sweet cream.
Blueberry Cinnamon Crumble CAP +1 for this - a good standalone and with extra blueberry and/or with creams. You can search for several recipes using this. The BCC abbreviation is used in several threads rather than the full name.
Chocolate Raspberry CAP - tried this a few weeks ago and like it standalone and especially mixed with Chocolate Coconut Almond CAP, extra raspberry and a touch of sweetener. See my recipe in the CAP only recipe thread.

Thanks everyone for your suggestions so far - anyone else have any stand-alone favorites?

First, sure wish those who suggest a flavor would mention a flavor percentage that works for them . . . give us a place to start!
For me these tfa flavors by themselves are enjoyable.
Mocha, 5%. New to me, courtesy of Bill on DIY forum, is Fudge Brownie at 6%.
Watermelon at 15-17% is good. Can't find a happy place for Juicy Peach--been all over the map.
All above were with no additives of any kind, 50/50 or 70/30 pg/vg and 1.2 nic.

If you like smooth/slightly sweet tobacco flavors, Hangsen is really hard to screw up in general. 5-7% flavor and maybe some AP/EM if you want to enhance it. Couple good ones are Flue Cured, Deluxe, Desert Ship, & #5.

Cap apple pie is decent by itself and easy to enhance.

 

[K31Scout]

My stand alone flavors:
TFA Mexican Liqueur 4%
TFA Pina Colada 8%
TFA Banana Nut Bread 10%
TFA Absinthe 5%

If you like mints like wintergreen, then you should try Lorann Teaberry 2-4% is perfect for stand-alone

True, about the percentages but they would only be suggestions since most folks have huge variations in that department. As a rule, you can look up the flavor online and recommendations are given with each so I suppose anyone trying to diy a stand alone would have very little research to find out
