This is a delicious and hearty vape. Great in the morning with a strong cup of coffee, and a muffin. You get a banana pancake through out the entire vape, with a light whipped cream on the inhale, and then a nice rich syrup on the exhale with notes of wild blueberries. Thick, flavorful, and warm.
The Banana NB obviously gives the nutty banana flavor. The bilberry gives notes of blueberry, and can even be dropped down to 0.25% to further make the banana pancake the star. The Vanilla Custard, Cookie, Vanilla Swirl, Caramel, Almond and Brown Sugar create the pancake with maple syrup flavor. And lastly the AP "separates" the banana's from the blueberries and pancakes, while boosting the cakey flavor. If you tend to get too much Vanilla Custard, you can drop it without affecting the recipe too much, as I had a mix at 0.5% and it allowed a more "grainy" pancake. The ONLY thing I do not like about this recipe too much and am trying to fix is that the BNB has a slight cinnamon note in it, and I really don't like cinnamon. That's just me, and if you enjoy cinnamon you're going to love this shit, so leave it as is. Last thing is, this flavor stays on your wick for a LONG time. You'll find yourself not using much because it holds it's flavor so well, probably due to how rich and flavorful it is. It's a great little plus. I wish I had posted this in the winter because this is a super hearty, warm, and rich vape, and wouldn't translate so well when you're sweating like a pig from the heat. But I figured I post it anyways. Other than that I hope you all enjoy!
Remember when I was like oh this has a bad throat hit. Well I'm back, and it still has throat hit. Well, that's okay, because this recipe is fantastic. 1 month steep and vaping it right now tore through the 15mL I had made. Throat hit is there, but at such a perfect level (Cookie/AP to blame for sure). Some 3's have no throat hit and almost make me gag because of their pseudo-throat tickle effect when there's no throat hit from flavor.
All in all, What do I taste and not taste. as a feedback comment mainly:
I taste:
Banana nut bread
FA cookie
Brown Sugar
AP
I don't taste the rest; is it a bad thing?
NO. This recipe is fantastic, even though I'm not tasting some of the aspects. It really does taste like a banana pancake. Cinnamon? not really, blueberry, not really. Who cares. Lovin' it. I imagine a rework of the recipe could prove beneficial to bring out some of the flavors that were lost along the steeping process. OR, you could take it at face value and supposed the flavors I don't find in the taste are adding to background nuances like mouth feel, sweetness, etc.
Anyway, this FEELS like a premium e-juce, for anyone concerned if this recipe is good. Mad props.
Possible Rework I would try:
TFA bnb: 5%
Bilberry: 1%
Van custard: 2%
Cookie: 1.5%
Van Swirl: 1.5-2%
Caramel: .5-1% (basically good as is for sweetness.)
Almond: .5% good as is
Brown Sugar: .5% or remove
AP .5% could be less, but still good as is.
When I read the title I was worried I'd be missing some major ingredients (I don't have any 'waffle' flavors or anything), but you made it from scratch! And I've got everything... except Almond. Its already on my list for my next order... so, soon!
Thanks for sharing, this looks awesome!
Just mixed this up. Shake and vape, such a complex and great flavor. BUT something in there adds a killer throat hit for some reason. Because of the throat hit it comes off very dry to me. I wonder if a little marshmallow or EM would help mellow out the sharp notes.
Overall very good and I'm very impressed; I just gotta figure out this throat hit issue :P
It's 1+ of those FA ingredients. I find that a lot of FA's stuff rips my throat raw. Some are worse than others and some are fine though, like Marshmallow, Cola, etc. One day I'm going to have to get around to making a list of the guilty flavorings.
The throat hit will mellow a bit more after a few days, but it will never go away completely unless you lower the wattage or increase ohms on an unregulated
that sounds yummy! dont have FA almond, can FA nut mix do the trick?
I'm sure it would, I've never used nut mix though. So adjust accordingly. Almond is a strong flavor so I used it at that %, so if Nut mix is a little weaker maybe bring it up 0.25%
