Mouth Feel - Very heavy on the tongue, and light on the nose giving it a very dense mouth feel. I would give it 9 out of 10. no throat hit.
Flavor Properties- Smooth and rich vanilla with a heavy Dairy, very buttery, and a well-balanced sweetness that really makes the vanilla pop.
Relatable Flavors - Reminds me of vanilla custard ice cream. ( may even be a suitable substitution for vanilla custard v1 cap.)
Off Flavors- Not really finding anything here.
Position In The Recipe - High percentages this should make a great top note, and due to its dense mouth feel should fit into a base nicely.
Pairings - Bakeries, chocolates, most fruits, tobacco's, nut flavorings, and other creams and ice creams.
I prefer 2-3% as a supporting flavor. Adds a very nice malty vanilla accent. Adds depth and layers when mixed with custards and other vanillas. To me, higher percentages dominate custards and creams and that's all I can taste, and has an off flavor. Maybe will need higher percentages with bolder heavier flavors like coffees or rich bakeries?
Wowzers! 5% of that stuff must be pretty in your face. At 2% it's very strong to me and completely overshadows anything else in a mix.
