####Q: How do flavors get put on the schedule?
####A: Requests and suggestions from people like YOU!
If there's something you'd like to see, just post a request in this thread. You can request both a specific flavor profile and where it lands on the calendar.
Unfortunately I find Honey Roasted Peanuts (SC) (WF) a great flavor to me. Those around me smell cat piss, but I do not.
I cannot bee-lieve there are so many honey flavors on the market. I'll let you all buzz about them so I can just snag the sweet, sweet top flavors.
I have FLV Milk & Honey. Don’t let the name fool you though. This is a great flavor but it’s neither Milk nor Honey. It’s like a burnt brown sugar or molasses, a dulce de lech with chocolate notes
It's not even supposed to be milk or honey, the name is just a reference to some bible verses about the land flowing with milk and honey, which is itself just a metaphor or unimaginable richness. At least, I hope it's a metaphor. Can you imagine how sticky and smelly a land literally flowing with milk and honey would get?
My time to shine, love vaping honey!
Honey Moonshine: TPA Kentucky Bourbon 8%, FA Honey 3%
Hazel-Caramel-Honey: INW 3 Five 1%, FA Honey 1%, Solub Caramel 5%
Italian Honey: HS Italian Cream 2%, FA Honey 1%
This recipes sound delicious. What’s your favorite of these 3?
Italian honey is the most recent, so it's my favorite at the moment.
The honey moonshine is definitely not for an all day vape, but the taste is spot on as the beverage.
The hazelnut one is pretty great, but coils get dirty pretty quickly.
Edit: if you don't have solub caramel, feel free to replace with fa caramel 1.5%
🤔why are there sooo many honeys?😣 is there some madness involved? I’ll guest with you dawg, I said… and the madness is mine..
I gave you the opportunity to bail.
Yes, yes you did. The picture of the bee heaving honey.. I totally get it
a week or so ago I received TPA Honey instead of FA Honey :c opening that package stung worse than the time River sent me someone else's 4oz TPA DX Sweet Cream. neither instance was more devastating than the TPA Honey SFT that I stupidly tried though!
VTA Honeycomb is supposed to be Aussie honeycomb toffee candy + does exactly that perfectly. dry + crunchy toffee-like texture; the honey part is light but overall flavor is somehow still rich. incredible, versatile, unique must-have flavor in my stash imo.
Sasami Bee Sting Pie is my favorite honeyesque flavor ever! it's supposed to be the flavor of a delicious Bavarian dessert called bienenstich (bee sting). brioche pastry dough made w milk + honey and smothered with a topping made of butter, honey + almond slivers. I just get an amazing, bright/ sharp, distinct honey out of it. so good!
I love Bienenstich. I think I need to get that Sasami flavor!
Me too! I make my uroma's "famous" bienenstich recipe for my opa's birthday every year 🐝 Sasami's flavor gives a lot more of that creamy honey flavor, but it's very easy to make a fuller, more accurate bienenstich with just a little help. I hope you like it if you get it!
i wont say ill be disappointed if no one vapes TFA, but i will feel cheated
So far I have not found reason to utilize any honey flavors. When I discovered diy e-juicing (I literally went str8 from buying disposables@ gas-stations to buying concentrates for diy'ing, with ZERO knowledge)...I bought HUNDREDS of flavors inside of the first 2-3 mos. That's been almost 1 1/2yrs. ago. Since then, I've done my research, I caught on pretty quick...throughout, still no uses for the 2-3-4 honeys I bought early on. Anyhow, I'm very new to 'posting' on here. But, I'm stickin' with it. btw; atleast 1/2 of them flavors from my spree earlier on turned out to be 'staple' flavors for me, atleast. This entire set-up is awesome & so are you guys... ps: w/o Noted(DoD) my understanding & descriptions of flavors would be horrific...I'm delving into a shit-ton of other diy learning options. Gradually moving into recipe creation.
Nothing wrong with taking it slow. If one of those honeys you bought early on is FA Honey, I've got at least one recipe you should try: Notorious
The only things honey I have are by associated name only( honey peach, black honey, honeydew….)Early in mixing, I was scared away from them because of other mixers offnote horror stories. I never really looked further into them. Maybe I can be persuaded to try them if I hear something great.
A honey tea recipe that takes forever to steep. I recently added WF SC Honey to my collection but have not used it yet.... Flavormonks honey is really concentrated so I make a 10% dilution to work with it.
Ingredient|% :---|---: Hibiscus (CAP)|0.35 Honey (Flavormonks)|0.10 Rose (FA)|0.15 Super Sweet (CAP)|0.50 Sweet Tea (Nicotine River)|5.00 Sweet Tea (TPA)|8.00
Flavor total: 14.1%
I can't believe no one mentioned MB Winnie! Such a great milk and honey flavor. When I need that milk and honey syrup but don't want it to be everything I taste (looking at you INW Milk & Honey), then I reach for MB Winnie. It's actually milk and honey whereas INW M&H is a burnt sugar and cream sauce. It's delicious don't get me wrong, but MB Winnie is toned down and fills that slot perfectly. I reach for Winnie over INW probably 8 out of 10 times now.
