I've tried Capellas and LA. Of the two I prefer LA. Capellas is a little weak, and simply adding more doesn't work- it gets pretty nasty over 15%. LA is nice at around 15, but I'm looking for a stronger flavor. TFA has some negative reviews, as does Hangsen. Thoughts?
Your favorite cheesecake?

I know that the TFA Cheesecake smells like the locker room used socks bin in the bottle. Mixed with something else like strawberry, graham cracker, and with a little saline added, it will taste pretty good after a week or two. I never tried it as a single flavor.
I have recently started working on a cheesecake. I have tried the TFA and LA, and like the LA a lot better. The TFA has a buttery, soured taste to me. Still working on the percentages, but the LA is shaping up pretty good.
I like Alice In Vapeland's Berry Lil' Cheesecake. Cheesecake with a hint of strawberry and spice.
Trying to be delicate here, uh, TFA's plain Cheesecake tastes so...organic..it about makes me hurl.
But their Cheesecake Graham Crust is one I can work with. It's a very different flavor, not just their plain cheesecake with graham added. The hurl-flavor-note is not in this one, thank goodness. I detect a little coconut in it and like to add more to make a coconut cheesecake. If I'm in the right mood, and I keep percentages low, it's pretty good.

I don't use them as stand-alone flavors but I've mixed Capella NY Cheesecake and NF Cheesecake together equally in a PB pie recipe. I have tried them by themselves in the recipe and imo they're better together.
best cheese cake is from Junior's.....a great little eatery in downtown Brooklyn
See....I was gonna say the kind you eat, but you beat me to it!
Is there a massive difference between new york cheesecake and philly cheesecake? maybe I'm thinking of cheeseSteak...
In any case, I have used LA cheesecake with much success. But not as a standalone.
Best recipe yet was a Pear Cheesecake tobacco. Don't knock it til you try it. I was skeptical too....then I vaped 15ml in less than a week.
I keep meaning to find a good peanut butter to use in a cookie recipe. PB cheesecake sounds good. I have the Caps NY Cheesecake and it's not bad, just a bit of an aftertaste? to me.
Never thought of pear cheesecake. Hmm. I like pear a lot. Inawera's is good.
Cheesecake's tough to get right. So much so that I've had to give up on it for a little while. Just started again with LA. The trick to it is to mix it, hide it somewhere, then be pleasantly surprised when you find it about a month later. Some flavorings (I think LA and TFA) go through stages: first week it smells and tastes like spoiled milk/baby vomit; second week it's like corn chips/feet; third week it starts getting better and stops screwing up my coils; fourth week it's just about there, and I then add Cream Cheese flavoring from Vapor Bomb to make it cream-cheesier (the way I like it). YMMV - all depends on how you like your cheesecake (I like the dense, creamy kind - lots of cream cheese, light on the crust - not the raised caky kind from Costco, which most flavorings taste like to me).
The only mixed (nonDIY) BBCC that I've ever liked came from Sweet-Vapes, but the flavor faded within days, so I had to vape it really fast. I think there might've been some Cream Cheese flavoring from Faeries Finest in there that tasted awesome, but made it do that, and it really did taste and feel like you just took a bite out of one.

LA Cheesecake I add about 10% to my mixes which currently my favorite is Strawberry Key Lime Cheesecake. I am not big on sour but that sour sweet thing has me hooked. I loves me some TFA Ripe Strawberry and I always have to find new ways to use it as to not get tired of it. If I used just the cheesecake plain it would be around 12-14% with like 6 drops sweetener to a 10ml bottle.
Try this: 11% CAP cheesecake and 4% M&P Butterfly bait--2 drips CAP super sweet per 10 ml. Steep 3 wks minimum. As Andy Griffith used to say, MMmmmmmm!
GAG! I agree with your colorful description as far as TFA Cheesecake (plain) goes. However TFA Cheesecake Graham Crust is entirely different - no vomit or corn chips in it, even right after mixing. I get great use from it. After reading your description of cheesecake though...I think I'll be off that whole flavor for a while.
I'm not sure I get cheesecake exactly from LA but that is the one from LA I use every few months. lol. even funnier I am vaping it right now. was playing around with a vanilla recipe today and said what the heck and added LA new york cheese cake. kinda ruined my experiment since it wasnt supposed to be there but its oh so good especially with vanilla flavors. I wish FA made a cheesecake flavor
EDIT and 2% or less is good I think 5% is pushing the limits on it anything over that is just to much I think

Cheesecake is my preferred flavor entirely. I vape Cheesecake from Mt Baker Vapor with two extra shots of flavoring in 100% PG. Sometimes I add Yellow Cake or Vanilla Cupcake to it, too, for this DIY Cheecake/Cake-y flavored thing.
