Capella Fresh Pineapple reviewed by SessionDrummer

All flavors tested at the listed percentages, on my beloved SteamCrave RDTA v.1, with dual 7 wrap, Kanthal vertical coils, with fresh cotton, and pulsed coils in between all flavors. Steeped 1.5+ weeks.

​

Fresh Pineapple (CAP) 3% (1-16-22) – OK, is it better than CAP’s Golden Pineapple ?? I think it is. Now, I smelled this one in the bottle, and it was a little punchy, so I decided to drop it to 3%, and one tester down, I’m wondering if I could have pushed it to 4% for some more presence. As it stood, for MY tastes, it was far juicier, and indeed fresher than CAP’s aforementioned pineapple. Nice bright yellow chunks, in pineapple juice is what I got from this one. Not candied, not cooked, but just fresh juicy chunks in juice. At times I did wish it had just a bit MORE, so that was probably my fault for dropping it to 3%, and I think I’ll change my rec. to 3.5-4.0% for a single flavor. The mid notes were perfectly paired with the bright higher notes, and it was very convincing, and did taste very natural. Nothing off-putting, and the juicy/fresh aspects carried all the way through till the end of the test. Now it might not be quite able to topple my personal Pineapple fav. Sugarloaf, but I could see running them in tandem, or pairing this with another like INW’s Pineapple to really push things. By itself, it was quite good, and worth picking up. I can see why CAP added this to their roster, to better accommodate Pineapple-ers. This felt pretty good at 8.4/10.

Nice, I've been mixing golden with sugarloaf and mb funky to go with mango for quite a while. Have to see if they get this one anytime soon in Canada.

Speaking of sugarloaf, what happened to the VTA (and a few others) thread, if I might ask? When I looked to my save it just says [deleted] now... though I know I should be able to find them on ELR too.

u/joeblowma I LOVE Sugarloaf, and it's become my goto Pineapple at this point, with INW Pineapple as a close second.

​

As far as the VTA (and others), I'm going to have to contact a MOD....

Well sugarloaf definitely has one thing I didn't get from inw... a huge grin the first time I tried it. Something in it just triggered an association in my brain with the little pockets of juice popping as you bite into fresh pineapple slices and it's always so fascinating when olfactory pairs with memory like that and so rare I can't help but grin. Love it too, one of few flavors I get in a >30ml size because I know I'll use it!

Glad to see the threads resurrected, really gotta try that soft serv recipe! :)

u/joeblowma thanks a ton for the heads up, as I literally had no clue that had happened, with no messages to that effect. I have contacted APEX.

Thank you for this. I use caps golden pineapple and have been pleased with it. I saw this new pineapple and was wondering whether to pick it up or not.

You're very welcome u/Barbarake. Picking up this one MIGHT just enhance your Pineapple experience, and def. VTA's Sugarloaf.

Nice one, a sugarloaf, fresh pineapple and INW pineapple mix could be pretty full.

Once again - thanks for being a contributor!
 
And since you're a Reddit noob - but a very experienced flavor tester - you probably haven't seen this. But I think you might enjoy reading it. It was written by the guy who contributed the bulk of the flavor reviews in the archive. The position he held is currently vacant. Would you like to become the next /u/ConcreteRiver ?

Thanks a LOT for the heads up u/OdieDoodah. From what I've seen from Concrete River, I don't think there's any filling HIS shoes. :)
