GRAAAPE - Or a plug and play Neon Grape duo.

GRAAAPE

|FLAVOR HOUSE|FLAVOR|PERCENTAGE| |:-|:-|:-| |TPA|Grape Juice|4%| |TPA|Grape Candy|4%|

This is a simple one, and thankfully it doesn't need to be any more complicated to get a well rounded, sweet, in-your-face full flavor. All we need to achieve vibrant, purple neon goodness is equal parts of both TPA Grape Juice and TPA Grape Candy. Honestly either of these at 5% is enough to get that very artificial purple candy grape flavor that you may be after, but together their forces combined create an absolute banger.

As far as TPA Grape Juice goes, it is certainly an odd one. It has the most mild alcohol vibe to it, much the same aroma I get from cheap Gin. It also has a distinct smell of purple Laffy Taffy, which adds a filmy, almost creamy ^(heh) aspect to the vape and mouthfeel. The grape here is as artificial as it is pronounced, and that benefits us greatly in this mix.

TPA Grape Candy is also fairly unique. I have heard pixie stick, taffy, and many other sugary purple things sold on grocery store shelves being claimed as the intended flavor of this one, though I'll let you be the judge. To me, at least, Grape Juice tastes more like a Jolly Rancher than anything. In the bottle, the concentrate smells of freshly cut grass and shares the same neon purple top note that Grape Juice supplies, combining beautifully.

Here is the fun part; Alterations to this recipe can (and should) include plugging in Vurve's Best Damn Pink Lemonade base, that being 6% LA Lemonade and 0.75% Lemon Sicily. In the summertime I sometimes like to add 0.5% WS23 to this grape base to get a nice, almost Popsicle tone to the whole mix. Throw in 2% FA Fuji or 1% INW Cactus (or both!) for a refreshing ass flavor. A little FW Blueberry or TPA Pineapple makes a pretty welcome addition to really amplify the tang of the mix. Really anywhere you think a Grape would be good, give this a shot. Add in Guava, Papaya, maybe even some ice creams to get a grape soft serve type horror.

Sweetener is definitely detrimental to this particular combo. If you get inadequate amounts of sweetness from these two flavors, then try turning them up to 5%-6% before reaching for the super sweet. EM will just do it's regular ole' thing of muting the top notes, which is actually an impressive feat here.

Shake and Vape certified, or would it be Shake and Grape?

​

As always, if you do mix please leave me an honest review on ATF.

Have you tried FA Grape Concord and INW grape?

Both very "purple"

For straight 'purple' I can highly recommend it

Just keep it under 2% or it can be a little bit floral

You mean you don't like floral cough medicine? /s

One of these days I will get around to ordering a bunch of stuff I've never tried. FA Grape Concord will be on that order.

Grape Concord + Grape Candy is also pretty good.

Bizarrely, it's the juice I mix that's gotten the most requests from friends for me to make them a bottle. It's nowhere near my favorite, so it's weird to me that it got so popular with my friends for a short time.

Now that's hilarious. I've got the exact same recipe (5% not 4%) called Graape on my ATF page. I sell it to some people locally.

I was very confused reading this post, maybe I've found a doppelganger.

No fucking way.

I triple check everything to make sure I'm not posting something that has already been created. I guess it didn't show up since it was private.

​

Great minds I guess.

I was afraid I had maxed out the amount of bad pun in this thread already. I was wrong.

You have a beautiful mind.

Yeah I generally don't make things public unless I'm really happy with them. I mostly use it as a mixing calculator. I haven't shared this one before.

Mixing the grapes is a relatively simple recipe so it makes sense that multiple people have come to the same one, albeit slightly different percents.

And the name is because I'm lazy. But maybe it really is great minds thinking alike. ;)

Just thought it was a funny coincidence!

Coincidences on many levels my friend. I have a habit of just adding letters to the name of the main profile because I'm lazy also. I have a lime recipe that I call Liiime, much to the same effect as Graaape. I also only make the star recipes public, or ones that provide a lot of development. It's safe to say that we ARE INDEED the same person.

I tried this combination and didn’t like it at all, for me, grape candy has to be 2:1 with grape juice to get bearable. Different tastes are interesting.

That they certainly are. I can see why though, the grape juice can get a little funky.

1.5% TFA Grape Candy 2% FLV Grape 3-4% CAP SL Blackcurrant 0.5% CAP Super Sweet

This makes the most neon deep purple grape I’ve come across. Try it! ;)

Oh I didn't even include that in the original post, that's my bad.

Shake and vape my friend, it's good to rock off the bat.

So 2 weeks ago I made the TFA grape candy & juice. I steeped for a week and the result was great on inhale and flavor yet weak and floral on the exhale, almost chalky dry floral.

Aspire Nepho coil @ 60w @12% nic.

How do I lose the floral dry chalky exhale?. I need help. Is it the 12% Nic?

What percentages were you using?

I know that if you push them too far they can get pretty dry.

60vg/40pg with 100% of Nic pg base

What percentage were you using each flavor at?
