WEEK 62
> Welcome back to another thread for sharing your impressions of single flavors you've tried. Unlike our flavor reviews which go in to a lot more detail, this is the place for brief notes. Here's an example from last week's thread:
/u/-DixxleRoo- on MB Rubin Lemonade at 6%. Its very pleasant, but misleading. To me it’s more of a berry mix as I hardly get any lemonade. There’s a very subtle lemon note behind the berries, which may be helping to brighten them a little. The main note I get is strawberry. It’s a pretty nice strawberry with a little tartness. There’s a darker berry flavour behind that. A mix of blueberry and something else. But can’t work out what that something else is. Overall it’s pretty tasty.

Brazilian Coffee - (WF) Wonder Flavors @ 0.5%-1,5%
Steeping around 3days give or take
Straight black roasted coffee.Just a topnote without any creamy base.This one is pretty linear. At .5% this works as an additional subtle coffee note in the mix , more than 1% its more forward.Over 1,5% i get burned offnotes.
​
Banana Yoghurt - (CC) Chefs Choice @ 2,5%
Steep SnV
Sour yoghurt with a medium body and a nice ripe banana backend which lingers.Prominent flavor and i enjoyed vaping it as a singleflavor.Might need some backup on the creamy notes , the banana is spot on for my taste if youre looking for a natural ripe banana note
I love their strawberry and raspberry yogurt too. Have you tried those?
VT Pudding Base @ 2%. Steeped around 10 days.
First off, don't buy this if you're American and want a traditional pudding like flavor. It's has a bread texture with butter and some vanilla. Vaping it solo ain't all that and a bag of chips. Still better than a cigarette though. But man this motherfucker excels in the bakery/ dessert type recipes as an additive. I use it between 0.5% to 1% depending on the application. From bolstering milkshakes to adding butter and a grain type contrast to custard type recipes this is a winner in my book.
xoxo Shout out to the homeless people who stole all the food in the Land Of CHAZ. Karma is a bitch 😂😂😂😂😂.
I like this flavor. But I agree it’s not a traditional American pudding. Maybe a butter bread pudding?
Yeah, I believe it's modeled after the European style puddings.
I tried CC (Chefs Choice) Creme Caramel at 6%, steeped for 22 days. Which perhaps wasn’t high enough as it was fairly light in flavour. I didn’t get any custard, which if it’s based on the desert it should have, no creamy texture and very little caramel. If it was labelled as marshmallow I’d be fairly impressed with its accuracy. It has a definite fluffy texture and tastes just like a marshmallow. I even got some of that outside ‘skin’ a marshmallow has. There was a little bit of dark, caramel-like sweetness. I’m going to try it at a higher % and see if I get more flavour and if that flavour changes.
FLV Yam @ 0.75%
I don't care for yams so this flavor came as a surprise to me. It's a slightly earthy flavor with a creamy inhale and an exhale tasting like a gently roasted sweet potato with a note of buttered popcorn. Phenomenally rich mouthfeel. Immediately after finishing the sft, I mixed it with INW custard and FLV marshmallow for a heavenly experience.
VT Creaming Soda @ 3%
I've been skittish of VT "baby wipes" for a while now. I shouldn't have been. After wicking I like to atomize a small bit of what I'm bout to vape and waft it to get an idea of the room note. It smelled amazing. On the inhale it gives a sugary rush that I can't quite identify and on the exhale I feel the tingly thing on my tongue that I'm still amazed that they can duplicate, like that of carbonation. After suffusing my nostrils with several pulls, the taste of the flavor really came out. It tastes like a vanilla cream soda made with cane sugar versus one made with high fructose corn syrup. It's soft and sweet and not in the least overpowering.
I tried Sweet Betsy Cookie by Flavor Monks at 15%. To be honest, I can’t remember why I picked that % accept that it’s supposed to be a one shot. It wouldn’t have mattered if I’d gone down or up in % because it tastes just like a sweet version of INW biscuit. If you’re a fan of that flavor, I suspect you’ll love this one too.
I also tried Creme Bouquet by OOO* At 3%, so I’ve heard this is supposed to have a slight lemony note. To me, it is a straight up almond cream. Now, I love almond, but I am confused by this. I would happily place this in my almond category but I’m convinced there’s something wrong, with me, with the bottle I got, or the vendor.
Because
I also tried Girly Cookies, shortbread by OOO also at 3%, now this is supposed to taste like a shortbread cookie. I did not pick the lemon version, but that is hands down what I taste.
Here’s my thought process, first I thought, maybe the vendor mixed them up when I ordered, so I went back to see if I got them in the same order. I didn’t, and the orders were placed 2 weeks apart. I don’t know if I should get another tester size of each from ooo directly so I know I’m tasting the correct flavors. I can’t find notes on either of these flavors to back up what I’m tasting. I’d hate to fall in love with them only to discover the bottles were mislabeled. They are both good, but neither is the flavor they claim to be.
