Setup: Plume Veil RDA; dual parallel @ .35Ω; cotton wicks; 45W
Testing: FA Bilberry @ 3%; Aged: 3 days
Flavor description: Tart, jammy, very dark blueberry taste.
Off-flavors: none
Throat hit: 5/10
Uses: Use 0.5-2% as a tart accent to other dark fruits in desserts/bakeries. This is a fairly strong concentrate.
Pairings: Dark fruits, creams, tea, chocolate.
Notes: This flavor is very powerful, it is recommended that you start at 0.5% and work up as desired so it doesn't over-power a mix. May also require a bit more steep time to reach full potential compared to most fruits. I plan to re-visit this one in a week or so and include any further notes.
Bonus notes: I had to look up what a Bilberry even was, turns out they're closely related but not quite the same as a common American blueberry: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilberry
This flavor smells (and vapes) like cat urine to me. First purchased directly from FA, then tossed the bottle thinking it was from a bad batch. Months later, I purchased from a reseller... same sharp, uric odor. I'm jealous of people who cannot detect this.
Use it sparingly. I smell it too but I don't go over 0.5-0.75%. Any more and I start to notice that pungent urine smell.
I also get a very funky smell from my newly ordered Bilberry. Just got my first bottle from ecigexpress. To me it's not so much cat urine but more of a mildew kind of smell. Like when you fold up and store clothes before it's dried properly, in a humid closet. Haven't tried the flavoring yet, but the smell scares me....
