I will now copy my email conversation with Jungle Flavors.
Is JF Strawberry (sweet) no more? I can’t find it anywhere. I have a bunch of ultimate sweet strawberry, but it’s just not the same.

JF Strawberry Sweet is discontinued for retail purchases, however if you or another wholesale customer orders at least 100kg of the flavor, then we make a little extra for retail sale. If that doesn’t happen, then it will no longer be for sale.
Apologies for any inconvenience, the Ultimate Sweet Strawberry is designed to be a 1:1 copy of the JF Strawberry Sweet, but you may have to reformulate the mix percentage, that’s probably where you’re getting a different taste.
Thanks for reaching out.
I’d love to hear it any of you think Ultimate Sweet Strawberry tastes anything like JF Strawberry Sweet.
I don’t think so and hate this.
Sweet sb is almost like a strawberry syrup, kind of gooey candy center to me, ultimate is kind of a combo, natural tart, candy, and almost jammy. Sucks when companies pull down flavorings…
I never had the strawberry sweet in the original or the ultimate, but from testing both yellow cakes, both Bavarian creams, both lemons etc, those ones are almost identical. Yellow cake and ultimate yellow cake are interchangeable, same with Bavarian cream. I haven’t tested an ultimate yet that I haven’t liked or isn’t useable. As for them being identical, I can’t tell, but if they aren’t, they are very very similar. Sorry I can’t help with the sweet strawberry but I bet they are very similar as well.
I warned people about this months ago…Ultimates will replace JF oGs…I do like the Ultimate Sweet SB and think you can definitely use it to replace JF OG
What do you think about the flavor % difference like jf mentioned? Do you think it’s stronger or weaker?
Personally, the Ultimate ssb is way more artificial after a good steep. It doesn’t have that bite and that little bit of authenticity.
As a partial/maybe mostly sb blind person, there isn’t many i like and can fully taste. I’m big mad.
