Has anyone had any luck with this every mix I try it tastes bad nothing like the butterscotch I was expecting I mixed it with some salted caramel by flavor west and some Madagascar vanilla even as a stand alone flavor at 10-12% it tastes really weird And smells funny I was shooting for something along the lines of the yellow butterscotch hard candy but this tastes nothing like that.

i don't know if it will give you a hard candy butterscotch taste.
I use it a bit lower 3-5% with some cookie (3-5%) and a couple different vanillas (1-4% each.) It gives me a bit of a flavor like the butterscotch syrup you can use on ice cream. A little custard or some cream could help too.
Just not sure what you would do to get it to taste like a hard candy.. Maybe some marshmallow?

I'll try that I thought it would taste like butterscotch but I think maybe it was flavorwest butterscotch not flavorart kinda disappointing but atleast now I know flavor art butterscotch is a dud well for me atleast
10% is extremely high for FA. Try 3% as stand-alone and see if thats better. Let it sit for a few days too.
Yes, definitely reduce the percentage by a lot 
That will probably bring it back to the world of butterscotch, I use it around 2-4%...couldnt imagine exceeding 4 - that is probably where your icky taste is coming from.

I'm used to using capella and flavor west this is my first flavorart flavoring I've used
Yep, I found the same thing when I tried it at 15%, yikes!
Found it much better at 5% or less, but it's not a real strong "in your face" Butterscotch IMO.

Yeah I'm starting to think it's just something to add to other flavors I just got butter toffee from oneonone and it tastes just like the werthers carmel coffee hard candy it's pretty good I was thinking of mixing up a recipe with maybe salted carmel butterscotch butter toffee and a hint of vanilla but I'm not to sure
just my thoughts, butterscotch seems to be one of those more subtle flavors and i think it really needs a strong sweet component to bring it out
Too me it has a very bitter taste I can't shake it even with sweetener maybe it's just not for me.
Most butterscotchs I've tried are fairly mild. Increasing concentration generally gives bad results - flavor overload. I add a little LorAnn Butter Rum to add some strength to butterscotch.
I never could get anything good out of FA and FW butterscotch. I tried many percentages, but never liked them. To my taste buds the natures flavors one pretty much tastes just like the hard candies. You can get a small sample sized bottle of the flavoring at high desert ecigs.
It's a recipe by HIC on another forum...
Buttershots
FA Butterscotch 2%
FA Brandy 1% (or maybe sub FA Jamaican Rum)
TFA AP 1%
Brandy and AP bring out the butterscotch better.
Was made for people like me that can't taste butterscotch too well, lol.
Haven't tried it yet cause I'm waiting for AP and Brandy.

I have a bunch of Butterscotch Flavors, but I haven't tried LorAnn Butterscotch is it just as bad as the others?
I pulled the trigger on the NF Butterscotch do you have a suggested percentage?
I've seen people using it pretty high... like 15%. I like it more in the 8 to 10 range. Mostly I use it for a butterscotch cookie recipe, and in that I think I use 4%. It's definitely a weaker flavor if you're used to hangsen, inawera,etc..
