FA Pear [Flavor Review]

submitted about 9 years ago by wh1skeyk1ngDiketones, Schmiketones

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

Testing: FA Pear @ 3%; Aged: 3 days

Flavor description: Juicy, bright, crisp, sweet, authentic pear taste. Very refreshing. Not tart or bitter. Leaves a lingering sweetness on the tongue.

Off-flavors: None

Throat hit: 2/10 very smooth

Uses: Great mid or top note, I have also heard of this used in place of sweetener or as an accent to tropical fruits or strawberry at lower percentages.

Pairings: Use with a small amount of TFA Pear to provide earthiness and create a well-rounded pear flavor. Also works well with almost any fruits in a mix. Holds up well with creams as well.

Notes: If you're after an authentic pear flavor, this is a must have.

This is a super light flavor. Any heavier notes, if not balanced well, will just cover the flavor of this ingredient completely. If you're looking for a pear that will work in a bakery like a spiced pear, this isn't the one.

How would it pair with the spice of something like TFA Apple Pie? It seems to have a spiced crust foremost, but would the subtle apple in it help keep the pear taste you think?

FA Pear at .5% performs as my INW Cactus alternate to bring some juicy goodness.

Very interesting, love the Rosemary (I use it with Apricot, maybe just a pinch of TFA MJ), what percentages of each are you mixing at?

Do you know how does it compare with INW Pear? Its flavour is delicious but it's a little bit harsh.

To me this isn't harsh, at least at 4% it isn't. I don't have INW Pear so I can't really offer a comparison. Sorry
