Peared Spear
submitted almost 12 years ago by longwhiteclouds

Finally made something I can vape all day that is worth sharing with the world. Its pretty simple but damn tasty.

Peared Spear

1% TFA pear 1% TFA spearmint

Because of the low percentages I just use 3 drops of each per 10 mL.

Its a good kick of spearmint with a bit of pear in the background. These flavours are great together, I have made it with more pear but this is the one I keep going back to.

If you try it get back to me and let me know what you think either way.

But... why not Speared Pear?

Speared pear was an ancestor of this one. It had more pear and less spearmint. I prefer this one at the moment but may go back to speared pear at some stage so I'm holding the name.

I will try this tonight. I mix at muuuuuch higher percentages and it always amazes me to see a recipe with 1% of anything in it! I can maybe see spearmint, but pear is such a delicate flavor already that I'm stunned that you get any actual flavor from 1%. Is it vapeable right away or do you steep it substantially?

I hear ya. Here I am using like 5-10% of this, 5-10% of that and here comes OP with a 2% recipe. Say whaaaaaaaaat?

I know everyone has their own likes and all flavors can be different, but I can't imagine even being able to taste this! I'm looking forward to trying, but most of my ADVs are Murdock, so I'm used to BIG bold flavor.

This is what I would call a bold flavour. The pear is quite subtle but nothing subtle about the spearmint. I don't know what Murdoch is. I always diyed.. I look forward to hearing what you think.

To me pear is a 5%er on its own and spearmint is not really a standalone flavour but 1% is plenty. Interested to hear if others agree, I may be a freak.

The TFA spearmint is a great flavor to work with. It's strong but it doesn't overpower the other flavors like Wintergreen and other mints as long as you use it sparingly.

I've been playing around with Cucumber Mint and think I almost have it down, letting this last batch steep some to test it again.

well I don't think you're a freak and was pleasantly surprised. I'm sure the flavor will develop even more, so I'm looking forward to seeing how this changes over the next few days. The pear is really subtle and the spearmint is a nice touch. It should probably be noted that i used flavourart flavors too so I'm sure there are little differences in that respect as well. I also never do such high VG so it was kinda fun to see how different that was. I did 15/85 pg/vg, 6mg, 5 drops of pear and three of spearmint for 10ml. I will try it again this evening and see how its changed. Thanks for piquing my interest! I'll enjoy this!

1% does seem kind of low, but you're not a freak, there is a lot to be said for lower percentages, as long as you're not doing too much vg the flavors do come through pretty well.

Its not quite right straight away, the next day its much better. Never managed to make it last more than 3 days I have been doing 10mL at a time. I made 150mL last batch so I guess I'll see soon. I should have added that I use about 90% vg and a cottonwool microcoil on an rda. If you use something else you may need to adjust the mix and/or add a touch of EM

I'll keep that in mind and mix at a high vg ratio for the natural sweetness. And honestly, so I really do get to see what you are tasting - what mg nic do you usually vape?

I'm down to 6mg

TPA Pear is very strong to me, I mix is at 6% and it tastes great.

So is TPA Honeydew, I mixed that at like 2% and it was overpowering other flavors mixed at 10%.

good to know - i was wondering why the honeydew was so much more expensive

God fucking damn this is a tasty vape!!! 50/50, 0mg.

I love it- it's got a nice smooth almost creamy taste to it- just the right amount of mint and pear in the background.

And to think that my two 30ml bottles of concentrate will make me 3 litres of the stuff... HA!

Glad you like it. Its still my adv after at least a month. Once in a while I add a bit of tfa plum to it which is pretty awesome too.
