Apparently in my flu-fueled fevered state last week, I ordered about half a dozen flavors of Faerie's Finest.
Extracts:
Clear Strawberry
Strawberry Banana
Orange
Flavor Drops:
Pear
Caramel
Ginger
Anyone ever try any of these? Extracts vs Flavor Drops?
Found this on ECF if you haven't seen it
I did see that, thanks. I always google-fu before I ask questions but all I can find is.... nothing useful. Even that thread is 3 pages of nothing. A couple people ordered a few flavors but there's no actual information posted - nothing about what they taste like, nothing about % used - only comments like I like them! and They're very strong!
So I was hoping someone over here might have some knowledge. Ah well, can't blame a girl for tryin' ;)
About a year ago, Matt from VTNW was talking about picking up their Lemon Lime. He said it was fantastic. Like any other purchases for mixing, just look into the ingredients to be sure they are suitable for our needs. I've heard a lot of good things about them, but haven't tried any myself.
There's a multitude of flavoring manufacturers out there, and the more experience we get with them the better. Some of the flavors we wish to replicate are quite possibly utilizing lesser known companies to make it more difficult to clone.

I picked up some of their Pina Colada extract flavoring. Will report back once I give it a try. Hopefully tonight.
OK, I tried the Pina Colada. I have to say that the scent in the bottle is very weak. Even still, I started low, 3%. The resulting juice is nearly incidernable from flavorless juice. I honestly think I'd need to use A LOT of this flavoring to get any sort of flavor. More than 20%. I've yet to try that though.
I did do some more research and it sounds like while most of their "extract" flavors are generally safe to vape, they're weak. However, their "drops" line of flavorings are quite strong. I think I got the wrong flavoring... :(
I think I've been missing something.
I just mixed up some Faeries Finest French vanilla at 20% with 70% VG, and... I think I got a winner. It's smoky like MBV's French vanilla, but it's much sweeter with out that nasty artificial sweetener flavor.
I bought the 8oz bottle($16) off Amazon because it was cost effective and figured I'd use it in my coffee if it didn't turn out good. It comes out to about $2 an ounce(30ml) and I'm paying about $3 for 15ml for TFA, FA, loran, etc.
It's definitely not a bad vape all by itself. If I'm still as impressed with this a few days from now, I'll be getting more of their products.
