Note from the author
First off I'd like to think the boys over at the beginner blending contest for forcing my hand on using tobaccos. they have opened up a whole new world of flavorings . I'm finding that Tobacco's really make things more interesting.
I created this recipe for the second round, of the mixed competition. Although it did not make the top 4 I am extremely proud of this recipe. After submitting my recipe, I made a 300 milliliter batch, and I went through it in just about 4 weeks. It was just that good!

Base
- CAP vanilla custard, JF dulce de leche, TFA banana cream
These three flavors come together to produce an incredibly dense, and super rich experience, Vanilla custard, and banana cream, this is a legendary pairing, together they become a decadent creamy banana, custard base. Add to that the thickest flavor I've ever tasted, dulce de leche and you have something so rich and deep it almost impossible to put in words.
Banana,and dulce de leche make an amazing pairing. The sweetness of the banana, compliments the caramel flavors in this creamy, dense, caramelized condensed milk. On top of the perfect sweet pairing dulce de leche manages to bring out a juicy and ripe quality in the banana.
Supporting Cast
- JF Bavarian cream, cap sugar cookie
Although these flavorings remain very much in the background they do some amazing work. Together they sweeten up everything, along with giving the flavors a light Bakery note. I love pairing my custards with sugar cookie, really is an amazing combination although the sugar cookie is drowned out, by the custard it always adds to the complexity of the flavor.
Secondary Note
- FA solo
One of the more interesting tobaccos I've tried to date. Soho has a very nutty quality, and a slight Caramel note just a hint of that tobacco flavoring that makes everything so interesting.
Subs
I haven't experimented with any substitutions in this recipe, it's just perfect and there's no reason to mess with it. If for some reason you don't have these flavors, I'm sure you can substitute them out for namesakes from other vendors it just won't be the same.
Aging
This is where things got interesting for me. Initially as a shake and Vape the banana was a little strong, the Soho was imperceivable, the dulce de leche was little Sharp, and the custard, well as we all know that custards need time, lots of time.
At one week this is great, at 2 weeks the much better and the banana started to calm down. 3-4 week some magic happen the layers really started to come out, in this recipe, the dulce de leche separated from the Soho, now I could perceive the different nutty, and caramel flavors. The banana cream calms down, and the whole thing was just delicious. The only problem was I had already vaped through 95% of my 300 milliliter bottle. Now I have to wait another month.

So. I just recently mixed up your flavor after finding it on ATF! I took out the soho as I'm not a huge tobacco fan, and added Carmel (I REALLY enjoy caramel) and this was amazing. Thank you for this mix.
Glad you enjoyed it if you feel Brave try it with the so it really doesn't taste like tobacco it is fantastic.
I actually find your recipe from Waynes page and tried it same percentages and everything but used TPA Bavarian Cream and Dulce de leche and it was amazing.I really liked the idea of tobacco in the mix.I was thinking of trying it with TPA Ry4 Double instead of Soho next time just to see how it goes.
