TFA Apple Pie [Flavor Review]
submitted about 9 years ago by wh1skeyk1ngDiketones, Schmiketones

Setup: Plume Veil RDA; dual parallel @ .35Ω; cotton wicks; 45W

Testing: TFA Apple Pie @ 3%; Aged: 3 days

Flavor description: Cinnamon/nutmeg pie crust with decently tart yet sweet apple notes. A bit sugary. Tastes like more of a green apple due to it's tartness, but there seems to be a bit of red apple sweetness to it as well.

Off-flavors: The cinnamon/nutmeg flavor might be harsh for sensitive throats.

Throat hit: 7/10

Uses: Bakery recipes, or to add a light cinnamon/nutmeg spice note to your mix. If it already has fruit in it, it will blend well without the apple taking over at lower percentages.

Pairings: Creams, custards, caramel, cookies, possibly some nuts or tobacco. Another apple flavor such as FA Fuji or INW Two Apples if you're after a stronger apple taste.

Notes: To me, this is definitely a crust-forward flavoring, but the apple taste sits noticeably in the background.

I'm surprised that you can even taste it at 3%. It's weak for me at 6%. I use 10-12% in a gambit clone.
