Oh yay! I think Marshmallow would go well with it for sure! Like a Sweet Potato Pie. FIY the Yam (HC) taste just like candied yam with a moderate spice note = 100%
I love Yam. It’s in my blood. I have a good amount of Yams (almost all of them that I could find online) and the new FLV Yam. The FLV Yam will be a full weeks steep tomorrow. Straight from the bottle it smelled like a mix of Taro FE, a hint of light earthiness from the Yam (TPA)…and something new…Like a real cooked starchy potato that was lacking from some of the Yam concentrates I’ve tried thus far. The one Yam that I like thus far is the Ube Yam (DuoMei) but it also has a Taro vibe to it.
Sure thing Laura5! I will do a full 3 weeks steep for this one, maybe even 4 just to see how it will develop over time. I have it SFT’d at 0.25%. I was advised that it was very potent and should be used low, other stronger concentrates from FLV. When mixed with PG/VG it is still nice and bold at the sniff. Be sure to write your notes also!
GREAT NEWS!
New tea flavors on the way!
Red Tea, Green Tea, Black Tea, Eisai Tea, Kinako Soy, and Avocado
Notes coming soon!
PS… I just found my yam flavor that i forgot to test so that will be included in the notes as well!
Now that’s a different kind of bottle! The pipette tip will be beneficial for precision when mixing. I really love the glass bottle concept. Now I know 100% my flavors won’t plasticize
It has a 3.2 cm pipette top and when u tip the bottle u squeeze the pipette to drip and u can very easily drop one at a time or squeeze to dispense more. It’s a little awkward but I’m getting used to it fast. I’ll take a closer pic for u
Eisai tea: 2% flavor
Right out of the gate, this tea has a fruity, earthy smell. I taste honeydew-sweet and mildly creamy. There also seems to be a very small amount of bitterness that offsets the sweetness making a dry, earthy mouth feel.
I love this as a standalone.
Red Tea: 2%
Very dry and light flavor. There is a touch of cinnamon. It is not very sweet, no bitterness. It smells and tastes like a regular cup of tea with no additives (sugar, milk, ect) Wouldn’t recommend as a standalone, it needs a stronger backbone.
Agreed, thanks @Laura5. I had a vendor juice called ‘Peach Tea’ once and was surprised at how much I liked it. I’ve been afraid to try to make one but your notes suggest this may be a worthy one to work with. Also had a ‘Cucumber Melon’ that was equally refreshing and surprising that I’d like to make someday. I guess that one isn’t really relevant here though…
Green tea: 2%
Now this one is delicious! A hint of mint with a smoky mouthfeel. It tastes sweet. There is the taste of honey upon inhale. A mild, smooth standalone. Would also be great with more honey!
