Disclaimers:
- There is a previous review here from u/TexasHex with which I pretty much agree
- It is my first public flavour review after having read a lot and having done about 10 single flavour testings on my own.
- I hope that it adds something useful to the community
Setup: 1) Wotofo Profile RDA with mesh and wotofo cotton at 50W 2) Vaporesso Guardian with 0.5Ω SS ceramic coil, TCR (35W limit, 240 C)
Testing: 6%, 50/50 VG/PG, 3mg nic, steeped 7 days.
Flavor description: More of an orange than a tangerine (at least the ones that exist in Greece). Depending on the atomizer/setup it can be either a more candy flavour or a fruity/juicy one.
On Wotofo Profile RDA it felt tangy, sweet (5/10), slightly acidic (4/10) and slightly juicy (5/10). Flavour during inhale and exhale. Very nice and rounded. Probably on the soft side - at 6% and it can take more even. Almost no harshness at all.
On Guardian (as expected) the flavour is less intense but still present nevertheless. Slightly more tangy, with fresh, slightly bitter citrus notes here, less sweetness and less juicy-ness. More of a zest and less than the flesh/juice part of the fruit.
Off-flavors: None that I could spot.
Throat Hit: Pretty low at this percentage (3/10).
Uses: It is nice standalone for a break from complex flavours and in order to clean the taste buds but I can't imagine vaping this all day. It is probably a very good part of a more rounded recipe including some ingredients with which it will contrast and blend nicely.
Pairings: Of course it would pair nice with creams, bakery and other citrus fruits. Could be interesting with a tobacco and maybe with some booze (rum, whiskey, bourbon). Also it would be interesting with some floral notes. Given this is on the sweet side I believe it would not be good to pair it with something also sweet (strawberries, melon, etc) unless you have a sweet tooth...
Notes: I have come to really like citrus notes. So far everything I have tried with citrus I love it or can imagine pairing it with something else.
Rating: 4.5/5 stars
Love this flavor! I make a simple 1,2,3 with it using FA Juicy Strawberry @3%, CAP Sweet Tangerine @2%, and FLV Cream @1%. Delicious, simple shake n vape.
I really like this flavor. Been working on something pretty simple with it. 5% FW Blood orange, 3% CAP sweet tangerine and .5 or maybe. 75 CAP juicy peach. Really sweet and juicy and definitely scratches that citrus itch.
I mixed up 3% CAP Sweet Tangerine, 2% FW Blood Orange, and 1% TFA Juicy Peach a while back. It was pretty good, but needed more Blood Orange. I haven't tried it higher than that yet. Gonna mix yours up soon and see what happens.
Yeah I'm really liking this as is, but I keep thinking I want to add a little mango to it. I've never had much luck with mango and I'm still searching for one I really like, or even a combination that does the trick. Fa mango, tfa mango,inw mango, flv mango and one or two others I've tried all have a sort of "green" taste to them that I really dont like. Except FLV mango which tasted like straight coconut to me. I guess I'm searching for more of a Rita's water ice mango than a true authentic mango. I'll keep trying. Hope you like it.
Also /u/eyemakepizza posted this tasty looking citrus mix the other day in another thread. I havent mixed it yet, but it looks awesome!
