My FLV Tasting Notes: Strawberry

submitted over 10 years ago by [deleted]

A quick copy/paste from my tasting notes. I'll try to hit a flavor every day or so. Hope you find it useful.

Past Notes:

Note: Tasted at 1% - 3%

Simple, jammy, juicy, macerated red berry with strawberry perfume. Relentlessly jammy. Powerful but not bright (few top notes). No off flavors or chemically notes but not quite strawberry fruit.

Puzzle. Use to add depth and fat, jammy quality to berry mixes. PB&J!? Try against astringent/bitter flavors (tea? licorice?). Start at low %’s.

Did I mention Strawberry jam?

Sounds dead-on for my impression of this flavor too. Great write-ups. Thanks again for doing these.

Thank you. Actually, I think it was one of your recipes that made me realize I had no idea what I was doing early on. So really - thank you.

It's my pleasure. We all have something to offer, and something to learn from each other. That's why this sub is my favorite vaping community.

To me it tastes and smells exactly like the red soft centered strawberry candies.

Totally yes. Fruit-filled hard candy bon-bons. Like these I came up with Bonne Bell Strawberry Lip Gloss circa 1975 too. I just thought that reference was a bit obscure (and creepy).

My pleasure. I just ordered the Tropical flavor pack so I hope to finish all the current flavors (time permitting) over the next ten days. Enjoy.

Looking for a pie-filling type strawberry flavor. That light syrupy sweetness part... Is this in that arena? Best recommendation for that?

Not sure really. It has the flavor but it might stomp on other flavors. There's one way to find out. Would love to hear the results.
