To assist the Flavorah Recipe Thread, here's some Flavorah tasting notes!
submitted about 10 years ago by skiddlzninjaThat one moderator. You know, the honey guy.

All flavors mixed initially @3% max VG. Any changes to the ratio will be annotated in the reviews.

FLV Raspberry- The bottle smells great. Almost like a mix of pomegranate liqueur and raspberry sherbet. When mixed @3%, it has a faint scent of grape, with sweet raspberry throughout.

When vaped, it's very faint at 3%. Volume after dripping: 9.3mL. Added .16g flavoring to reach roughly 5%. Total flavoring ratio: .43g/9.4mL(this is the same formula I used to increase any of the flavors listed) The flavor is great, but still weak. I can taste the potential for it being a great mix with creams, berries, and citrus fruits. The strength, however, is not there with this one. Recommended starting point: 6% as the main note in a mix, 3% as a compliment.

FLV Peach- Smells like it should. Nothing to write home about; just smells like peach. Quite pleasant.

At 3%, still a bit weak. Bumped up to 4%. @4%, this tastes like peach rings. Almost an exact clone of peach rings. Fantastic standalone flavor if that's what you like. As odd as it sounds, the flavor itself is actually fleshy like a fresh, warm peach you would pick yourself(not like that unripened shit you get at the grocery.) It's one of my favorites of the lot, due to it being like a candied peach, but still translating the fleshy notes of a real peach nicely. Recommended starting point: 5% as a main note, 3% as a compliment.

FLV Wild Melon- Wow this stuff smells incredible. I'm not sure what melon they were trying to emulate, but this smells like honeydew with a hint of watermelon. Great expectations are had.

Vaped at 3%, this flavor shines. This one definitely has the patented FLV strength we've come to know, and goodness does it have the quality we expect. It tastes like a super sweet frankenstein creation where he took a honeydew, with all of it's melony deliciousness and added that elusive flavor that is really only present in watermelon(seriously, has anyone else noticed that watermelon has an extremely unique flavor?) This flavor is incredible. Mix this shit with strawberry, creams, apples, anything but tobaccos and chocolates. Recommended starting point: 3% as a main note, 1% as a compliment.

FLV Sweet Coconut- THIS SHIT SMELLS LIKE CANDY. LIKE MOTHER FUCKIN' ALMOND JOY HOLY SHIT. For real, I ran and got an Almond Joy after smelling this flavor. Gave me serious cravings.

/u/furyxus gave me high expectations for this flavor, and once again, they were met. @3%, this flavor is a little bit strong, all of the notes definitely come through and it lives up to it's title. This is a sweet coconut. Not like a candied coconut, but more of a fresh coconut sprinkled with sugar. Not quite as buttery as FLV Coconut, but still has that buttery, oily taste. Will make a great addition to strawberry milk mixes, and really any sort of yogurt I can think of, as well as CAP VC1. Recommended starting point: 2% as a main note, .5% as a compliment.

FLV Cinnamon Crunch- This one smells just as good as the others. Sweet, sweet, cinnamon, like walking by a Cinnabon in the mall. It has an underlying cereal smell, almost like Pops or Kix. A little afraid of the cinnamon at 3%.

I was wrong. There is no reason to be afraid of the cinnamon. This flavor comes across as, well, Cinnamon Toast Crunch. It even has the slightest hint of maple to really bring home the flavor. Spit on me and call me Tootsie if this isn't the best single-flavor cereal I've had. There is even a very mild butyric acid in this flavor that adds a fantastic milk note to the mix. I cannot think of any way to make this better. Maybe I'll try it with some FLV Milk and Honey and see where this adventure takes me. This would go great with some TFA toasted marshmallow, FW cinnamon roll, CAP marshmallow, really any flavor similar to these. Flavor could be a little stronger. Recommended starting point: 4% as a main note, Don't you dare use this as a compliment because it deserves the main stage.

FLV Crunch Cereal- Smells like a frosted sweet corn cereal. Big expectations for this after the Cinnamon Crunch.

For the first time, I think my expectations were not met. This flavor is good, as good as other dry, blank-slate cereals, but it's not Flavorah good. I can taste the corn cereal slightly, under a honey-like sweetness(not like honey flavors, but like real honey) The closest approximation I can make with a real-world taste is Pops cereals. Not sure if they had this in EU, but in the 90s, it was a pretty popular cereal in the US. It was a simple corn syrup frosted corn puff cereal. This flavor could work well with FA meringue to try and reach a lucky charms taste, maybe some blueberry and strawberry to make frankenberry or booberry cereals. Not much else needs to be said besides that it's a little weak at 3%. Recommended starting point: this flavor isn't really a main note flavor, 4% as a good cereal basenote.

FLV Milk and Honey- Smells like if someone put TFA Bavarian Cream into Yoohoo chocolate water. This isn't a bad thing in my opinion. Smells like it will make for a good addition to cream bases and cereal flavors.

At 3%, this is a wonderful single-flavor. I might just mix this up(maybe 4%, 3% might be a bit weak for a single flavor recipe.) as an ADV for when I tire of fruit mixes. This flavor has some serious complexity, with a nice chocolatey(?) flavor mixing with a sweet milk. This tastes almost exactly like Smax Sammie Puffs. This may be my favorite out of the bunch, and with one flavor to go, it has to be a banger to get this flavor off my mind. Milk and Honey will go great with CAP VC1, TFA Graham Cracker, FW Graham Cracker, TFA Toasted Marshmallow, and the like. Recommended starting point: 4-5% single-flavor, 4% as a main note, 2% as a compliment.

FLV Peanut Butter- Once again, this smells like it may have a touch of cocoa in it. The peanut butter notes remind me of the scent of those orange peanut butter crunch sticks you can get at a gas station.

Wow, this tastes like unsweetened peanut butter. Way to go Flavorah, you managed to include some of the saltiness without making me add saline to the mix. I'm impressed. 3% may be a little high, because the flavor of the red peanut skin(from peanuts in shell) is a bit too prevalent IMO. This would make a great base for pb&j flavor. There is still that slight sweetness that comes from peanut butter, but mostly this is a dry peanut butter flavor, like the all natural stuff they sell at Whole Foods. This would go well with FLV Milk and Honey for a creamy PB custard flavor, FLV Strawberry for a pb&j flavor, CAP VC1 for another PB custard, FLV sweet coconut and FLV coconut for a nice creamy, sweet peanut butter vape. Recommended starting point: 2.5% as a main note, .5% as a compliment.

Thanks for notes, very useful! I know there's at least one other guy and myself that use peach at 1.5% and it's still pretty dominate in a mix. It also mixes well with FLV Blueberry (1.5% as well)

Maybe it is in a mix, I didn't try it yet with other flavors, so I couldn't say.

Solid write-up, man. I've really been trying to figure out what to do with my milk & honey. This definitely helps...

Do anything with it, it's fantastic.

edit:I just mixed 4% Milk and Honey, 2% Cinnamon Crunch, 1% Peanut butter, .4% Sweet coconut. I'll let you know how it is.

Wow.. spot on description of milk and honey, haha. I retried it again standalone and picked up on that subtle but present chocolate like note.

Chocolate covered golden grahams (like honey made's chocolate grahams) might be a real nice addition to something like this.

Love the input, very accurate and super helpful!

Now I'm gonna have to spend half a paycheck to pick up all these FLV flavors. I want to try them all lol.

they're really good flavors. I haven't tried one that I would advise to stay away from.

I have a pretty hefty supply of TFA flavors. Haven't really branched out to anything else because of the generally steeper prices, but you just convinced me with this post lol.

Some of the FLV flavors are super expensive. Clove, Cured Tobacco, Coconut, and Rich Cinnamon are $12.75 each, so you may be a little iffy buying them. Rich Cinnamon and Coconut I know are worth the money, haven't tried the other two quite yet, but I might in the next couple days, Who knows.

I have mostly TFA because I branch out to new flavors with them first mostly. With that being said my flavor art, inwr, and Cap bottles last me much longer than my TFA and flavor West's. They're simply, for the most part, more concentrated. Therefore, your money goes a lot farther

2 things.

  1 - Thank you SO much for posting this. I am currently making a list of the first FLV flavors to try and this was very helpful. Want a hug?

  2 - You fuckers are fucking killing my bank account.

I'm up to 10 on the list so hugs all around. We may not be able to afford food, but we can taste the hell out of it.

Thing number 3, I couldn't format something correctly on reddit if my life depended on it. I wouldn't even try.

Thanks for the notes! I completely agree on your write ups for sweet coconut and peanut butter (I have the biggest hard-on for FLV peanut butter). Interestingly enough, I used milk and honey in that graham tobacco flavor I sent you. I'm revisiting it the recipe to dial back the honey, but I might add a touch more FLV milk and honey to it. We'll see!

Gah I don't have that flavor. I'll have to fool around with it more. Have you taken a crack at their lemonade yet?

by skiddlzninjaabout 10 years agoFrugivore

Yeah, I did another tasting notes post about it a few weeks ago. I'm currently using it to try and make a lemon bar flavor.

I have, if you're interested. I made a Lemon Cream Cake style vape yesterday that's nice right now, probably better in a week or two once the lemon settles down and the creams come forward.

The lemonade is VERY strong. I started at 2% and I ended up having to add more creams to make it work...so in the future I might lower it to 1-1.5% and go from there. It's a nice, sweet lemon flavor, more akin to lemon drops than a fresh lemon (which I think was what they were going for). I could see it being awesome in any lemon candy based creations, as well as a nice additive for some citrus sweetness in others.

I've used peach a couple of times and it really dies in the mix for me at 4%.

Not 100% sure why.

I'm loving Wild Melon as well, but I notice it lends a pretty strong throat hit to my mixes that's bugging me quite a bit. Did you notice this?

by skiddlzninjaabout 10 years agoFrugivore

Not at all. I didn't get any TH from it when I tested it.

Try it standalone? maybe it has an interaction with one of the flavors you're using.
