Flavor Properties
Fantastic sweet and piercing vanilla, not floral at all. Getting some bakery notes along with a earthy and slightly smoky flavor. Very authentic and not artificial in the slightest.
Relatable Flavors
Describing vanilla is like attempting to describe a color. Vanilla is strongly aromatic and contributes warm, floral notes. It’s a gentle but distinct flavor that complements many other spices and foods.
Off flavors
Can find nothing off about this flavor not even a lingering aftertaste, frankly the best vanilla I have ever tried.
Position In The Recipe
As an accent this could be used to heighten sweetness, enhance vanilla in other flavorings, and add contrast and complexity two creams.
Excellent standalone flavor, should also work as a top note or a part of base.
Pairings
Bakeries, cookies, tobacco's, berries, stone fruits, coconuts, savory flavors, dairy and cream flavorings, cereals, and floral flavorings.

Notes
I can see myself tinkering around with this one a lot, as stated earlier probably the best vanilla I have tried, followed closely by shisha vanilla, try substituting it out in recipes that call for vanilla bourbon, shisha vanilla, Ext...
Here is some information on where to find it, and a Wikipedia on vanilla if you're interested in learning more about this amazing flavor.

Please if your opinion differs, or you have another review for this post it in the comments. Will help the master list with multiple reviews in one spot.
Great review. This flavor is to vanilla what FLV Rich Cinnamon is to cinnamon. I sub the vanillas out with it in almost every recipe. Also...
This coupon code is only good until 7/22, but, if anyone needs any incentive to pick some up, 25% off DIY Flavor Shack with: FUNINTHESUN25
Thanks for the heads up! Wasn't gonna buy anything this paycheck but I can't pass that up.
Looking at getting the 6 pack of flavors to try a few things, any suggestions aside from Holy Vanilla?
Not a one, I'm afraid. Holy Vanilla is all I've ever tried from there, but, I admit to being deeply intrigued with Li Hing Mui flavor: http://bit.ly/29MgTsj
WTF even is it?! I have no cultural reference point for this. Is it sweet? Is it sour? I don't know, but, next time I re-up my HV, I might tack some of that on, just because it drives me insane with curiosity.
Based on all the sub hype for Holy Vanilla I've seen forever, this review, and this coupon code, I decided to give in and try Holy Vanilla.
It arrived today and I'm sure my mailbox will smell like Vanilla for a long time. Smells great and I'm itching to mix with it but I'm not too confident the rubber dropper top will be good for keeping it in the bottle. Time for a re-bottle.
Agree 100%. Came to add that TFA Vanilla Bourbon is very very close to this. I found it works as a good sub when you forget to re-up HV. TFA is darker, black really, so I did eventually get more HV.
Good to know so far this is the only flavor I'm using from them paying almost as much for shipping as product
I hate the taste of Bourbon even hints of it , i guess this one has a lot of that going on.
I think it's referring to the Bourbon region of France, not the corn-based liquor of Kentucky
My absolute favouritest vanilla💙
Finally got some today. Do you have a favourite recipe that explains why it's your absolute favouritest vanilla? It smells like heaven.
Edit: Wait - MILF's Milk, right?
Yup, the MILFs. Or sub out the vanilla swirl in peachy keen custard or one of my other recipes
I used to like using vanilla swirl to space out the HV & make it last longer, even though they're quite dffferent.
I was shocked how expensive DIY Flavor Shack is .
Living in Vegas is expensive.
Great review once again. Very convincing/tempting. Lol
I'm sure it's amazing, I've been dying to try it, but I just can't bring myself to spend that much on 1 bottle of flavoring. I'll have to leave the Ferrari for now and wait for the chance to maybe test drive it one day.
P.s. Not to sound nit-picky; your link is for the premixed juice....this is for the flavoring.
Gah, you asshole. Just ordered a 30ml of it plus their Cinnamon Roll because, I love cinnamon rolls.
I hope you got the flavor and not the juice I f***** it up
I had a period of a few months where I stopped paying attention to basically all of my other flavors, and vaped only Holy Vanilla standalone. I can't sing it's praise enough.
Holy Cow I must have 15- 20 different vanillas and to me this is my go to vanilla (Holy Vanilla) for a good Baked Vanilla juice. I use this with Cap Vanilla Custard with a few other flavors to make a fantastic Vanilla juice. Holy Vanilla all the way Baby!!
