Tetra Vape design an eliquid contest #2

[BobbyJohn]

What you think of the first one posted??? I really haven't a clue as to how to do flavor percentages since I don't know intensity...

There is one good tea out there somewhere... that vendor just dropped the ball on the rest of it

The first one is very good. If it is chosen, all of those will be combined and then that combination will start being tested at 20% mix rate.

This is a pretty good generic tea: Organic Tea Flavor Extract There is also this green tea that I have never tried: Organic Green Tea Flavor Extract

 

[BobbyJohn]

Your suppliers probably don't have the flavors but,
Strawberry Dango Unchained
40% strawberry
20% sweet rice
20% red bean
10% Bavarian cream
10% marshmallow

Probably need to tweak those percentages. Going for a Strawberry Dango/Mochi.
Edit: The red bean and sweet rice flavorings do exist...but probably only through asian suppliers.

You are right, I checked our flavor distributors and they both don't carry red bean or sweet rice flavorings. I generally don't trust any flavors, nicotine or eliquids that come from China. Unbeknownst to us, our first nicotine distributor (before we started selling online) was getting theirs from China and testing showed a lot of impurities; that's one of the main reason we use NicSelect's nicotine now.

Aiming for something like Jamaica (Agua Fresca)

50% Hibiscus
20% Cranberry
15% Strawberry
10% Ginger
5% Clove

If it's selected, can we call it "Something like Jamaica"? LOL

Ok and thanks. I know a lot of people do a black tea and honey... it always seems to have a strong almost earl grey bergamot smell or something... that is not the tea to use. Does that make sense to you?

Lebkuchen-ish

30% Cookie Dough
20% Hazelnut
15% Orange
10% Almond Vanilla
10% Mulling Spice
5% Ginger
5% Lemon
5% Honey

Xmas in Nürnberg...think German gingerbread cookies.

Sounds like a great idea--but would it mislead people into thinking that it's more like Jamaican rum?

Not sure if they would think Jamaican rum...

Yes, earl grey has citrus added, you're talking about just a plain black tea.

25% Black Currant
5% Pomegranate
5% Lemon

and a variation...

10% Blackberry
5% Orange

yet another variation...
Kir Royale à la Pêche

65% Champagne
25% Peach
5% Cherry
5% Mint

and one last try for good measure...
Salted Kir Royale

60% Champagne
25% Raspberry

OK, I'm done for a while...maybe just for today. Sorry for flooding this thread with my spitballs!

Dunno but it was supposed to be Black Tea and Honey no mention of Earl Grey. Then got another and same scent but not as strong and both said Black Tea and honey. Unless it is the Honey that has the nasty smell that I can't handle.

There are a select amount of flavor manufacturers out there and if one were to look hard enough, they could find the flavors that every eliquid manufacturer uses. A lot of people use Wizard Labs flavors, we use Natures flavors (all organic eliquid manufacturers use NF; Virgin Vapors, Velvet Cloud Vapors, EC Blend, Bare Naked, High Desert, Vape Rite, ect ect ect), then with some googling you can find other distributors and figure out what the tea flavoring you like is.

Be warned though, 60% of flavors tested have diacetyl and/or alpha-diketones in eliquid and a lot of flavor distributors don't offer a guarantee.

I've got a couple more concepts for today...

Tea Quiero

you know, without having any idea of the concentration of NF's flavors, it's really hard to guess percentages...I may have to actually buy some of these to experiment with if you all plan on running this contest again!

No

No it isn't. I've had Bacon flavored eliquid and it was the most disgusting flavor I've ever tried.
