Prickly pear and rum just seem like terrible flavors. Anyone have any good advice for mixing either of those?

You mean their Jamaican Rum flavor? I like it very much with apricot and a touch of coconut. I'll find my bottle for the recipe if you like. As far as a good standalone Rum, I think FlavourArt's is superb.

Prickly Pear surprised me. I expected (hoped) it to be sour, like a drop from the bottle tastes, but it wasn't like that as a vape. I mixed a smoothie-flavored vape with tiny percents of prickly pear, lychee, lime, and watermelon that worked. I'll never use it standalone, but it seems to blend with other unusual fruit flavors as a background note. It definitely works with dragonfruit flavor.

Just decided to check out FW again as I need some more flavors for my store and also to reup on the popular flavors. Looks like they heard me about fire and ice :ohmy: lol too bad I've already figured it out. There's a bunch of new flavors and I will be ordering some to try out and see how they sell. I'll keep y'all posted.

don't forget the 15% coupon code: cyber . ;)

Ya seriously! I had no idea that monkey fart had PB in it until I checked diyjuice. But duh I should have! I've got Grape Soda, Fuzzy Navel, Jolly Rancher, and PB Cup on the way as far as the new flavors go. Will report back. Btw the Blue Ice has Blueberry as well as Raspberry in case anyone was wondering and the Cherry Crush is Maraschino, Black, and Wild as is the Blast but with menthol obviously.

Has anyone had any luck with their 'double apple' flavour?

I have tried mixing up small batches at a few concentrations (7% and 15%) but it just seems really muted.
It smells ridiculously good but can barely taste it.

If anyone has any experience with this flavour I would greatly appreciate some input as to how to make it something enjoyable.

Thank you :)

Hi disco,

Thanks for the feedback :)

I have a 10ml batch at 15% that has been steeping for 5 weeks but the flavour is still really flat and never developed.

I think I may start a small batch with a higher pg% as this one is 50/50 and see if I get better results.

I tried the Green Apple mixed @ 10% with 2 drops of lemon,
Steeped for 1 week (first 2 days Caps off, rest Caps on) shake daily, and its good,

Try to add 2 - 4 drops of Lemon juice per 10ml, maybe that will improve the flavor,

I have the double Apple and other flavors, which I plan to mix it in weekend,
so I will report back,

8% flavoring works for me in an all-VG 20mg base. Shake the bottle of flavoring before you use it. I like to add a drop or two of lemon juice for a 3ml batch, but it was fine without it.

I like this flavoring more than the other apples I've tried. It doesn't have an earthy/musty note I get with the others.
