Vanilla flavors inducing vaper's tongue the quickest?

[WhatDoesThisButtonDo]

I don't seem to have this happen with any of the other liquids except specifically for Frenilla, Custard's Last Stand or Creme Brûlée.

It seems like whenever I haven't vaped any of these for over a week, re-visiting them SMACKS me in the face with a flavor explosion. Like...drool-into-your-drip-tip flavor, more so on the custards than pure Frenilla.

But if I vape any of these flavors a second day in a row, suddenly the flavor is mostly gone. Even waiting 36 hours isn't always enough, it's the kind of fatigue that requires at least 2-3 full days before getting that EXPLOSION of flavor back. Even Strawnilla tastes less sweet even if still present on the Strawberry note.

this doesn't seem to happen as easily with Coolcumber Mint or my old bottle of Refresh, or Roundhouse or PB&J, but then again I never vape any of those for more than a day at a time - even so, they can be used every other day instead of needing 2-3 days in between like the vanilla flavor.

Am I the only one experiencing this specifically with the vanilla flavors?

Taste blindness...I can hit some virus, one puff, then my GCD explodes with cinnamon and fades by the second draw and stays that way. Hit coolcumber then hit the CLS and see...It's like if you are smelling perfumes they give you coffee beans to sniff in between to clean your palate. Scent and taste are directly related. I can smell citrus mold like crazy but few do...some may taste vanilla like crazy while it is muted for me. Everyone is different.

I only get vapors tongue if I've been vaping the same flavors for a long time. A long time for me is three tanks in a kayfun filled about 2/3ds full. For me it can happen with any flavor. My first real experience with it was with TPR's Angel Sauce. On my third tank I just couldn't taste all the flavors anymore.
Vanilla, to me, is a very light flavor. I don't necessarily loose the vanilla specifically, but if I Vape the same amount of CLS, it tends to lean more towards just tasting sweet than tasting vanilla.

I've tried vaping Coolcumber and other flavors for most of the day, then coming back to it...still muted. Time is a stronger factor for these than shocking the senses.

Try a Zotz, seriously, they are the best cure for anything taste related.

Wow - tip of the day, that.

I know I am weird. While I do love me some Zotz, I find my tastebuds tune up better to spicy-hot. A touch of cayenne and boom can taste again.

Add 2-3 tablespoons of organic (if possible) lemon juice (NOT concentrate) to a bottle or glass of water. It works as a great palate cleanser and is also very good for your liver.

The CLS and CB batches I recently acquired were each respectively a combination of 30 ml's of NZ, Max VG, flavor boost and then 15 ml's of 12 mg. Therefore making a high VG 4 mg 45 ml capacity bottle for each flavor. I can definitely SMELL the vapor okay off the dripper but my tongue just numbs to it after a few minutes (I went and had a sandwich today with jalapeno's thrown in - helped somewhat, and I also made sure to shake the bottles vigorously, but back to the same problem after about 2 minutes of vaping). The first time I dripped the CLS and CB when I first got the bottles, it was from the 15 ml, 12 mg portions - not max VG - and the flavor SMACKED me in the face. After waiting a couple of days, trying the jalapeno, some flavor did come back - not as much as that first try but definitely a noticeable improvement - but like I said, went away in a couple of vapes.

It's probably my senses individually, I mean nobody else seems to have the same problem. I did try vaping Coolcumber Mint and my NZ bottle of Refresh straight after - I don't have my senses numbed if I just start off on those and keep vaping, but today I tried CLS, then CB then Frenilla, then the last two juices. Refresh didn't start to pop through until the 2nd-3rd dab on my dripper. After drying that out, I went back to Creme Brulee and only tasted the slight burnt caramel.

I guess maybe I'm just the type who needs to wait a few days between each custard vape - nobody else seems to have that problem. It's honestly a real shame because these two flavors are what first made me fall head over heels for NT.

I have the same affliction, I try to change flavors every other day or so to keep them popping.

The NZ flavor boosted liquid does have more flavoring as compared to 6/12/18 - maybe over-saturated for your palate?

^ I ordered it so that it'd be 2/3rds NZ with a flavor boost and higher VG, and 1/3rd 50/50 pg to VG in 12 mg's, to make a high VG, flavor boosted 45 ml's of 4 mg. I was intentionally setting it so that 2/3rd of the ghetto-mixture would have that flavor boost.

Looks like I underestimated how severe it would be and bit off more flavor than I can chew on.

Herein lies another hot debate - execute NZ in the standard 50/50 ratio and flavor load for purposes of product consistency, or continue to do it like we do it now.

I get "custard tongue" too, not just NT but every custard I've tried, you aren't only one. Sucks when you love those types of flavors though. Yes, I use taste revival methods and stay dehydrated and vape variety, just happens.

Staying dehydrated is one way to lose the flavor

(I get what you mean though. So "custard tongue" it is, then. Though Frenilla falls under the same category, and when my tongue's numb to vanilla, Strawnilla is kind of pointless too)

Don't think it's been asked but how long have you been vaping?

 

[baseballmom]

Lol....I meant hydrated.......what comes up on tablet spelling sometimes, it's got a mind of it's own....ugh, I want my computer back....no I don't dehydrate myself or encourage dry tongue...re checking my posts better from now on in least 'til laptop back in my arms....I have to have my older son turn it off if he can like he did for my cell phone

 

[xxxSapphir3xxx]

I've only had it happen after a dry hit of vanilla. I do think there is something to it. I'm talking full blown can't taste or smell anything, even food and listerine. As far as flavor fatigue, I do notice that more often but I'm not sure it's flavor specific. I find that changing flavors then going back really helps.

Since January.

Oh you poor thing, I was just breaking your balls! Lol. I knew what you meant.

Even vaping Coolcumber Mint, Refresh, etc. for a single day, doesn't restore my senses the day after on vanilla. Shocking my senses with jalapeño, lemon or sniffing coffee grinds doesn't 100% restore my vanilla sensitivity, only somewhat.

I'm gonna close this subject by stating I guess I'm just the individual type of person who needs to restrict his vanilla vapes to no more often than once every three-four days.

I vape vanilla XXXX non-stop. When I feel my taste buds are turning on me I vape straight unflavored. It has a slightly sweet taste to me. After a bit I can get back on the vanilla train. Every day I carry a REO with something vanilla and a REO with unflavored and it keeps me on the straight and narrow.
