Mouth Feel - Super smooth and very heavy on the tongue. Nice and dense I would give it a 8 out of 10. No throat hit.
Flavor Properties- A nice smooth cream, very Dairy tasting with no egg flavor. Moderately buttery with no vanilla and just a hint of sweetness.
Relatable Flavors - like drinking a glass of half and half lightly sweetened.
Off Flavors - I have nothing to say here, I think flavor art did a perfect job but let me know if you taste anything off.
Position in the recipe - Very rich and heavy so my opinion is that belongs in the base, can also be used to Accent other creams.
Pairings - Can I just say everything and be done? (No.... shit.... fine)
Other creams, chocolates, bakeries, vanilla's, fruits, mint, spice flavorings, tobacco's, cereals such as fruit circles and Floral flavorings.I've even tried it with Cola and like the results.
Accurate review, I add between 1-2% with a little bavarian cream and turkish tobacco and it definitely works wonders in the mix. Similarflavor profile on a Nebox @45w with .18 Ni200
Is that Inawera turkish? Wondering what percentage you are using as I was just about to start testing that flavor out.
Actually TFA Turkish, I haven't used many INW flavors but I do have some on the way. For TFA, I use 2% at the max
Thanks for your notes. Not sure if you've answered this question before, but what pg/vg ratio do you use when testing?
50/50 to shorten up the Steep time and then by the time I get to it it's already been 2 weeks I have like 20 more of these flavors ready to test lol
Nice review. I love the stuff personally. I tend to go overboard on mixes and end up with 8-12 flavors (newbie mistakes, I need to walk before I run) and was getting a powdered sugar taste from my cream bases. I've never tested FA Cream Fresh solo, so at least I know now that's not the culprit. I think it might be my use of CAP sweet cream. I need to stop using that one for a while, I think I can live without it.
CAP Sweet Cream has to be loaded with EM. That's all I smell when I open it.
Can't confirm officially, but I've always thought the same thing. It mutes the hell out of any fruit you put it with
TFA's Sweet Cream seems to contain zero EM in it if you want something different.
I'm starting to kinda notice that. I need to add one thing at a time so I'm not guessing at what flavors causing what issue(s).
Just so damn tempting to keep adding things here and there for a recipe. I'm definitely finding out DIY is easy to do, yet very hard to master.
Probably meringue & not sweet cream
What cola did you like it with? Sounds off the wall, would be a good building point. I've tried cola with Irish cream and dug it so it'd be very interesting to see the different directions it can go with fresh cream
What irish cream are you using? I love that flavor but I've only got FA and find it harsh. I'm looking for feedback on CAP/FW/TFA.
Was FA too. What % did you use it at? I didn't notice a particularly harsh throat with it but that's not to say it couldn't have been smoother. I've only used it in my coffee/kava vape and Irish Thunder by Shaner which I left some tasting notes on.
Inw just got it
FYI it isn't Fresh Cream, it's Cream Fresh -- two very, very, very different things.
No clue why US vendors keep pushing it as Fresh Cream because it's the worst descriptive ever.
As I understood it the reason that it is called cream, fresh is to make it easier to search. Creme fraiche is a fresh sour cream made by putting acid like lemon or lime usually lemon into cream and letting it sit out overnight. And this s*** is not sour man so fresh cream :p
To me it's like crème fleurette or crème fraîche liquide (same thing pretty much), which is what is used to make crème fraîche. It has a neutral dairy taste and no sourness.
Crème fraîche is made by fermentation with bacteria btw I've never heard of this acid method.
Not sure what those creams are called in English but I do think the first one is called fresh cream so that name seems right, it's also on the original label by FA.
My older bottles with a screw cap did indeed say "Cream Fresh" which was confusing, but it definitely wasn't "crème fraîche". The newer ones with a flip cap actually say "Fresh Cream" now, so probably just a mistake in translation. I've seen similar things on other bottles from FA.
I'm sensing some sarcasm...
No sarcasm intended. But it was a very drunken post lol. Vodka is not my friend. I'm probably talking bollocks.
FA usually have the name in two languages on the bottle. Some of mine do. Some don't. My most recent was Bano/banana. So things could get lost in translation on other flavours. My cream fresh is the screw cap in with the name just in English. Still experimenting with it.
Both my old and new bottles have said "Panna Fresca".
