Tasteless fruits
submitted about 8 years ago by vigocarpath

So it appears I fall into the "can't taste strawberry" club. Just wondering if there are other fruits that people commonly can't taste when vaping. I would probably try those but order smaller quantities. I'm going to order some fruit flavors this week. I was going to order most basic fruit flavors like peach, blueberry, raspberry, apple, pear and some blackcurrant. I'm really hoping to make some great fruit yogurts.

Some people have trouble tasting blueberry.

What strawberry flavors have you tried?

If you haven't tried these, try them* before you give up on strawberry:

  • INW shisha Strawberry 2-4%

  • Real Flavors Super Concentrate strawberry 1-3%

  • Jungle Flavors Sweet Strawberry 1-4%

  • newly discovered but also yummy, flavor revolution sweet strawberry

I have trouble with blueberry. FA Bilberry at 2-3% gives me the most satisfying "blueberry" taste, FW's offering seems to have the most taste out of CAP, INW, and both TFAs. I recently acquired a bottle of INW Shisha Bilberry which I'm hoping to be as exciting as the rest of the Shisha line.

I've only tested Shisha Bilberry briefly, but it was very similar to FA's, maybe not quite as potent. FA Bilberry with TFA Blueberry Wild is the closest I've gotten to a real blueberry, but the bilberry started giving me an itchy throat after using it for an ADV for half a year. I should probably try again with INW.

The common Strawberry Ripe (TFA) and Sweet Strawberry (Cap) are the ones that I can't taste. I made mixes from 1 all the way to 15 percent and none of them taste any different. Also tried combinations of the two together. I also did with and without nic just in case.

I'll try those other strawberrys after I get myself some other fruits I know I can taste.

I can taste tfa strawberry/ripe personally, but within less than an hour of hitting a mix with ripe in it the entire mix gets muted for me, and regular strawberry just kinda gets lost in most mixes and I don't really care for the flavor on it's own. Plan on trying inw shisha strawberry on my next order, neither of the tfa or caps sweet strawberry really work for me.

i tried jf sweet strawberry and it has some weird nasty note to it - rotten strawberries maybe? does this go away after steep? mixing it /w shisha strawberry and fa strawberry didnt help, the rotten overripe notes overpower.

anyone else get this from jf sweet strawberry? or just me?

Is there a website that sells both JF Sweet Strawberry and FR Sweet Strawberry? Those are the only two I haven't gotten my hands on. RF (SC) Strawberry arrives tomorrow.

No :(

JF is only available at ecigexpress or from jungle flavors directly.

FR is only at nic river. Im diggin FR from the little tests I've given it. At 3% it's a nice sweet strawberry. No off notes whatsoever. Could see it working at 2% with other strawberries or 3-5% as a main strawberry.

Dang, oh well. As somewhat of a strawberry non-taster, would you recommend I try out JF or FR first? I'll only be able to grab one of them.

I just got the FR tobaccos in yesterday. They're actually pretty decent from my shake and vape test. Leafy and Sweet both taste pretty similar, but it's not bad. Now I gotta keep my hands off them so I have something left to test in 2-3 weeks.

Shisha strawberry and rf strawberry both taste similar to me. Both I can taste more than strawberry ripe, if I haven't Vaped it in a while the first few hits are delicious, after that just a faint taste. Inw shisha has a strawberry hard candy taste. Fa red touch smelled really good, till it went up my nose. Haven't tried it yet though.

Oddly enough my first foray into diy I mixed up nic River purlium strawberry biscuit and also cream dream, which is mixed fruit and cream. Those two together were a super strong sweet, jammy strawberry. Cream dream is faintly apricot tasting mix solo so maybe try mixing some peach/apricot with strawberry to push it forward more?

If you eat and taste them you can while vaping ... I'd try a few different flavours/manufacturers as some I came across were quite muted others punch you in the face same applies to ready to vape liquids like the premade JustJam is like a table spoon of strawberry jam right in your mouth ...

I've tried some commercial strawberrys and still nothing. Maybe they are using the same strawberries I'm trying to DIY with. Most commercial strawberry juice just tastes like sugar with all the sweetener they load it up with.
