Sparkling wine [INW]
submitted about 9 years ago by Chrisdvr1Proud Sidebar Reader!

Setup

RDA/ Velocity Coil/ 6 Wrap Single Fused Kanthal Clapton 2×26 core 32 wrap W/ 45 Wicking/ Full Cotton Ω/0.26

Testing

Steep Time/3 weeks % Used/ 1.5
PG/VG 50/50 Nic%/0

Mouth Feel

Heavy on the pallet and light on the nose, with a very light effervescence coming through.

Throat Hit 1/10

Flavor Properties

Very strong grape flavor, bright and pronounced, sweet and syrupy. And I feel as though I'm getting a light background Apple flavor.

Relatable Flavors

Reminds me of my grandmother's homemade grape juice, with just a little extra fizz.

Off Flavors

Nothing really off here the syrupy aspect does leave a slight aftertaste but not unpleasant, and there is no alcohol warmth coming from this flavor which I expected from the name.

Position In The Recipe

Base, if you're looking to make a grape anything. Should work well as an accent brightening up other fruits along with adding sweetness, and when using with creams believe it will come out as a top note.

Pairings

Fruits, berries, tropical fruits, and savory flavors.

Notes In my opinion this is more of a grape flavoring.

Literally don't think you understood the question he was asking how I would rate the effervescence which are rated 4 out of 10 the original rating up 1 out of 10 was for the throat hit. Never been accused of hopping like a bunny but fucking like one is always fun ;)

Love your reviews but I couldn't disagree more with this one.

I get zero fizzy feeling with this one.

Also, It tastes like Welches Grape/Apple Juice that was left out in the sun.

Mixing this flavor with vanilla or creams will cause a disgusting medicine flavor as if you mixed milk and dimetap together.

Not only that this flavor is toxic strong. This is very similar to their Cactus flavoring. You put one drop in ANY mix and it will ruin/alter it.

Second opinion...avoid the flavor at all costs and just get TFA Champagne for fizzy.

I'm glad somebody actually had another opinion. My feeling is this is more of a grape flavoring then it is a sparkling wine or champagne I definitely agree TFA champagne has the most fizz probably followed by real flavors ginger ale which is less harsh and easier to use I haven't tried it with anything but fruit so far and the flavor I'm getting seems like it should pair well with cream but I haven't tried it I'll let you know

Haven't tried RF yet. You recommend them in general?

Our company got an email from them and I didn't immediately trash bin it so we might have to test a few of those.

Seriously, good stuff with the reviews though. I don't/didn't want to come off as a rude in the slightest.

I've heard good things about RF and plan on ordering some soon. It's all VG based flavorings. There is a coupon code floating around for 25% off too, good prices either way.

Think I'm going to take the cream off the pairings list I just tried it with cookie juice I gave been Steeping 4 3 weeks and it was definitely weird.

I'm also curious how long you let it steep when you tried it?

Only a week to be honest.

I definitely don't have the patience you do. :)

Well it's better than no time at all. I lack the patience as well, but when I mix these single flavor tests I rarely test them right away. I have 3 kids and a whole list of other responsibilities, so it's usually just a matter of wow I can't believe it's been that long and I just getting to it.

thanks, I was looking for something to add fizz TFA it is then, not sure if its easy to explain or not, but how fizzy is TFA champagne, and do you know of any other flavours for fizz. I really want a sparkling lemonade
