does anyone have opinions for TPA PG/VG against other high quality PG/VG from WL, VZ, xtremevaping?

I've been using TPA pg/vg for last 2 weeks. I decided to try some on last flavor order. Only can compare to xtremevaping out of places listed it was cheaper when I bought from TPA. I can't tell big difference except $.

I made Creme de Menthe at 7% and that came out plenty flavorful for me. You could probably even go 5% to begin. I thought it actually tasted pretty true to the name. But not having been a menthol smoker (in the past), the mint taste didn't appeal to me. My friend, who also never smoked menthol cigs, LOVED it.

Thanks. I never smoked menthols either but I've found that I actually like a bit of mintyness in some juices. I need to make some more of my other juices tonight and might give it a shot at 5%

Just started mixing my own a few weeks ago with fairly decent results. So far:

Hazelnut 10% @ 70/30
Coconut 10% @ 70/30
Coffee 10% @ 50/50
Black honey tobacco 10% @ 50/50
DK tobacco 10% @ 50/50 (steeping)

The two that are having issues are the coconut (has a very strong "bite") and coffee-clear (has a strong tobacco(?) taste).
I was wondering if anyone has tried these and what, if anything, was added to the mix to "calm" these flavors down.

Ordered Peach, green tea, Hypno and Mary to mix in the next batch.

I have not tried that mixture but Bavarian creme is well known to smooth out the sharpness of flavors. Maybe someone else has other ideas as well.

There are two coffee flavors:

Coffee Flavor
Coffee Flavor Extra (clear).

I have tried Coffee Flavor Extra (clear) and found it to be very strong. Seems like no matter how little (%) I've tried, it makes its self known. I would think 10% is way to much. Try say 2% with Hazelnut Flavor and see what you think until you get a "cream" of some sort. Just a thought, I'm still testing myself.

EDIT: Just remembered I had tried Black honey tobacco when I first started and found the Honey to be to "floral" for me. Just a point of reference.

For the record. If you do decide to add a cream to the coffee flavor do not add sweet cream. It tastes nothing like actual cream. It tastes like nasty artificial butter.

Thanks, I'll slip in some Bavarian and Hazelnut to the next coffee (@ 2%) mix and go from there.

I don't know, didn't you see purely's comment(above).??

EDIT: Never mind, mis-read puerly's post. You said "BvC" ps said "SwC", my bad!!
