And I am happy to say I have some grants on its way, I will let everyone know how the flavours compare to the stevo's stuff we have been doing, I hear it is the best in the world
I heard Big Willie's is right on par with Grant's but much easier to get a hold of some. The guy couldn't be nicer.
Got my Big Willie's and I really liked it! It had a hint of lemon in it already but no cinnamon or pie crust. An idea jumped out to me and I added a bit of Mt Baker's Dutch Apple Pie witch has a strong cinamon and pie crust taste to it and lo and behold!!! I just hit the custard jackpot!
I think I might stilk try to develop this and make it even better than it is through DIY but for now, holy smokes this is GOOOD!!!

I got my grants and have been vamping it for a week. IDK I don't really like it that much, it is a beautiful color of orange so I can only assume it is steeped, no born on date but it came from a shop in Spain. it is 24mg but I usually vape 18. I find the TH very harsh, and it is not as sweet and custardy as I was hoping for. But I am on antibiotics right now and am not sure if this is affecting the flavour or not. Got a bunch more to vape through so I can give it some more time and update later. On a side note I love Vader Puddin from maple leaf vapes, it is fanfreakingtastic.
Cap vc 15%
Sweeter 3%
CapEgg nog 2%
Cap butter 2%
Cap graham 2%
Tried it at only 6 hour steep and egg nog is very over powering I think. Getting a spicy nutmeg on the front notes. Hopefully this settles down with a week steep or so. Didn't have tfa smooth or whipped cream.

The smooth & whipped cream go a long way in taming the spicey nutmeg of the eggnog. And the vanilla flavor will kick in in a big way after a long steep.
Yeah, I'm going to follow this thread and make a batch. I have the flavors now, so I'll let you know. If someone has tried this and Grant's Custard, I would appreciate a head to head comparison. Thank you!
Well after reading through this hole thread, I had to make up a batch of this Custard. I swapped out the EggNog for Cheese cake, because that's what I had, I also used the Vape Wizard.
If it tastes 1/2 as good as it smells, it'll be a winner.
I may do my next batch with Gingerbread instead of Cheese Cake.
Thanks to the OP for starting & sharing this recipe

Ok, I followed the formula exactly. First day, eggnog was noticeable, but I've been mixing for a while and know it will settle down. Also, the creams take some time spread their wings.
Day two. As suspected, nutmeg is settling down, creams and vanilla more available. Already consider this an ADV, making it about 6 total for me out of hundreds of DIY's. I make some complex recipes like this and have found that they generally go through three distinct flavor changes, and settle in around week 5 to fabulous. I suspect this one will be the same. My test batch is 30 mils, much more than normal, because I want to vape a tank once a week for the first five weeks to track its progression.
Kids out there, this is not your Mama's vanilla custard. This is something special. If this thing kicks the creams and vanilla in high gear, it's going to be badass. Keep you posted.

what program are you using in this screenshot?
I guess I don't log onto Grant's vanilla custard site often enough because it's always out of stock when I do. So I made this juice just trying to imagine what Grant's tastes like. If anybody out there who's tried Grant's VC actually has the inclination to try this recipe, I'd most certainly love to know just how far off it is in comparison. I'm guessing it's nothing like GVC, but you never know...
I guess I'll keep trying to get my hands on some Grant's VC so that I can make that comparison myself.
Day 4: Decided to burn a carto to get a good idea on the taste and to use on my best APV for the best possible vape. WOW!
The cream's are starting to come into their own, and the subtle flavors are becoming barely detectable. You know how you can have a different taste on the inhale than on the exhale? Well, some of the complex mixes have this feature, and this Vanilla Custard is second to none in that department. Even a third different taste while the vapor lingers in the mouth and on the tongue. Only great flavors with complex flavors ever have this effect. Decided to have another family member try this tonight and they were blown away. Instant ADV. Made a quick 60 mils in that family member's nic strength (12 mg/ml) as they got a headache from my 18 mg/ml, but couldn't stop vaping it!
This thing has legs. I can see how the eggnog is mellowing, the vanilla and creams emerging, the tiniest hints of the cinnamon and other subtle flavors beginning to play a role. This is the real deal, perhaps the best juice I have ever tasted, and this 8 ingredient recipe is only on steep day 4! Wow is all I can say!

I'm so glad you wrote that. There are no words in my tiny brain to describe how much I love this recipe. Stevo you're the master!!
Yes, I tried several variations before I had all the correct ingredients. The revised recipe is the one I've stuck with through a couple hundred milliliters. . .
