would suggest our Just Sweet - it contains no EM or Sucralose. Just as sweet as surcralose. Will ask our IT team to put this into our online store on Monday.

Wow @Jetz. I hope everyone else is paying attention here, as your ā€œhands onā€ approach is great. I appreciate it, and I know everyone else does as well.

Most / many times a MFG would pop in once or twice, maybe to announce a sale, but I appreciate the granular knowledge, and help.

Iā€™m just thinking about the very recent website fix. Fixed in less than a day ? You donā€™t see that very often/

I have been paying attentionā€¦I just joined the forum so I can add to this thread. I have been lurking here for a few years. Firstly thanks to @SessionDrummer for all his reviews - an invaluable resource for all of us!

I have been looking at the reviews for this line and being based in Australia it was a no brainier to order after seeing @Jetz actively helping people in the thread and the discount code. So I placed an order today and he came back to me immediately to answer questions about a recipe he has on this site for a Heisenberg clone and a couple of missing flavours on the website? great customer experience. Canā€™t wait to get the flavours to try. I donā€™t normally single flavour test so my comments will likely be on the recipes I will be able to make.

Welcome @Nuromanzer good to see another Aussie on here. There are a few of us now. I agree that @Jetz is a fantastic vendor and a lot of others could follow his example. I like the fact that we have such a great option for flavours that are both well made and manufactured here.

Gā€™day people.
First time long time. :wink:
Iā€™ve been lurking in the shadows like @Nuromanzer for some time also.
Made a purchase based on @SessionDrummer reviews this week too.
Been browsing their site for a while but reluctant to make that purchase, until now.
With the interaction from @Jetz, and the fact itā€™s clean and made here, why not.

Quick thanks to everyone on here.
Iā€™ve learnt a lot in a short time (unbeknownst to you). Great community.

Golden Pineapple (FLAVRZ) 5% / 8% (4-23-23) ā€“ Fresh, Juicy, and Yellow were the three big take-aways with this one. I started testing at 5%, and it was good, but I wanted to push it a bit, and 8% did the trick. Nice, full, and juicy pineapple in SPADES. It was very natural tasting with loads of mid-level, and bright high end notes. It was damned near just like eating a juicy pineapple, without the mess. Nothing baked, or darker caramelized notes in this one, just fresh picked only. At both testing weights there were no off notes, and no florals, and it stayed just as accurate throughout both, with the higher percentage yielding a much fuller experience. FLAVRZ did a great job of really FULLY representing a fresh pineapple, without falling into a ā€œjuiceā€, or ā€œcanned / candiedā€ category. Sweetness was about two ticks above mid level, and that just plain worked here. 3 testers later, I was still looking for something to nitpick. All in, especially at the higher rate, a fresh, natural, and juicy pineapple was exactly what this one was. Easily a 9.5/10.

Golden Syrup (FLAVRZ) 5% / 8% (4-23-23) ā€“ This was an INTERESTING one to test. Much like many of the other FLAVRZ I started testing this one at 5%, and it was so-so, and felt a little thin. It also had a somewhat dry, abrupt (yes abrupt) finish. Smelling it, I knew it needed more, and 8% WAS the ticket. Talk about IMPROVING a flavor, as this one REALLY opened up at 8%. It became a full on, in your face Golden Syrup. Because itā€™s not as common in the US, all of my UK friends tell me there is only one. Having only tasted Golden Syrup once, AND, quite a while ago, this was a great one to test. At the higher weight it was a deliciously sweet, almost dark-sweet flavor, with definite caramel, and almost buttery undertones. NOW, 8% may (or may not) have been pushing it, but I didnā€™t detect any flavor bending, BUT, it started to take on an almost boozey like finish. Now thatā€™s on me, as it wasnā€™t there at the lower weight, and quite frankly, it actually worked LOL. What was interesting was the complexity, and how it revealed itself during tasting. The mid to dark sweetness started from the beginning, with the caramel, and buttery undertones coming in near the middle until the end. A sweet ride with an interesting finish. Sweetness as expected was a few ticks above mid level, BUT, no sickeningly sweet, as I was able to burn through 3 testers of it without fatigue. Rich, darkly sweet, and buttery caramelly !!! About the only off-note(s) were the slight dry-ness on the finish at the lower weight, and the slight boozey finish at the higher weight, which I caused by ramping up the %. Beyond that, just a dark sweet bunch of deliciousness. Iā€™ll lower my solo rec. to 7.5%, and leave it squarely at a 9.2/10.

Joys of making atomisable flavours safe to vape when you do not have the usual food concentrate or ingestible ingredients at your disposable. Safe, Clean and Clear has be come our motto, it is even an education process with other clients who wish up to add a red colouring into various syrups or flavour concentrates. Most colour or dyes (food grade) that are traditionally use are petrochemical based.

For those who enjoy a little light reading.

Graham Cracker 2 (FLAVRZ) 5% / 8% (4-24-23) ā€“ Any of you whoā€™ve followed me over the years, KNOWS Iā€™ve got a Sā€™mores obsession, and therefore, I also have a Graham Cracker obsession. Having never really fallen in love with FW, and FLVā€™s GCā€™s, and using TPAā€™s Cheesecake (Graham Crust) for different things, it left RFSC as my go to GC. As with many others, I started testing this at 5%, and then moved to 8%. For comparison it was more like RFSCā€™s GC than any other. A very good, not coconutty, authentic GC. I had some subtle undertones that added TO the authenticity, that we lost to some degree when increasing the percentage, which was interesting. Slightly dry on the finish, but not astringent at all. A rich, almost textured GC with lots of notes that could easily have been graham flour, brown sugar, etc. Very realistic, and if you smelled the bottle you might think youā€™d find a crushed up GC in the bottle. No overt cinnamon, but it felt like it was in there somewhere, because it was just too damned graham-y. No off-notes at either strength, and about the only take-off would be the slight dry-ness on the finish. Accurate, tasty, with an almost grainy texture is what this was, and it was damned tasty too boot. I havenā€™t even gotten INTO the Marshmallows yet, and I feel compelled to mix up a Sā€™mores or two now, BUT, I cannot get distracted. Very authentic, accurate, with a slightly dry finish. Iā€™m leaning towards 7% for a final solo weight, and leaving it very high up, @ 9.6/10.

Grape (FLAVRZ) 5% / 8% (4-25-23) ā€“ The Power of Purple !!! You will notice, I again dual tested this one at 5%, and 8%. At the lower weight, it was lacking some punch, and 8% served exactly that up. A great grape, that was centered around the high and mid notes, with some lower notes mixed in on the bottom. Fairly well rounded, and complex, and seemed to cover almost the entire grape. No bitter skin notes, but a fairly sweet purple grape, that was 70% natural 30% artificial. It was a few ticks above mid level sweet at 8%, and even with that, it wasnā€™t fatiguing, nor a true ā€œcandiedā€, nor a soda. Even though it hit all the low, mid, and high notes, it lacked some of the lowest low notes, which kept it a mid, to mid-dark purple grape. No off-notes, no florals, and nothing out of place, even at the higher weight. All in, it was a great mid / mid-dark grape, that married a natural with an artificial, and did so nicely, that was sweet on the lips. While the sweetness levels were above mid level, Iā€™m fairly certain that it added to the ā€œpopā€. Below the sweetness was some slight tart-ed-ness that helped add to the complexity a bit. Because it straddled both the natural and artificial, you could use it in a wider array of mixes. It felt purple-y @ 9/10.

Green Apple (FLAVRZ) 5% / 8% (4-25-23) ā€“ This one took a little bit to open up. Upon first filling, I didnā€™t really get much flavor, and then shortly thereafter it started to reveal itself. I felt it was light(er) at 5%, and increased to 8%, and once it finally started to produce some flavor, it was pretty good. Even still at the higher weight, it was not an overpowering flavor, which is NOT what I can say for some Green Apples, which can rapidly overpower a mix, and go completely sideways when used too high. This one never got squrielly and played nice regardless of the percentage. It presented much like the Grape in that it tasted like a mixture of natural and artificial combined. The tart/sweet ratio felt evenly paired 50/50, so it had some tartness, and some sweetness. Sweetness was a little below mid-level, so no candy, or candied here, and the tart/sour was JUST high enough to add to the ā€œgreenā€-ness. No off-notes, and I did prefer it at 8%, but it still felt a little underwhelming. The flavor was good, but I couldnā€™t get the exact saturation levels maybe needed. Crisp, green, tart and sour, with a mix of roughly 50/50 natural/artificial is what this presented. Minor take-offs for saturation and that was about the only nit picks. It was interesting that it took a little bit to get going in my testing setup. It felt fairly placed @ 7.0/10.

Guava (FLAVRZ) 5% / 8% (4-27-23) ā€“ I spent some extra time with this one, as I was not 100% sold ON the Guava. I many times seem to prefer the more ā€œfermentedā€ punchy Guava flavors, and this one was sweeter, and very smooth. It did present as a Guava, but at times, not 100%. It had many aspects of a Sweet Guava, but at times I almost got apricot, and peach notes, albeit lighter in the mix. Sweetness was just below mid level, with no off-notes at either 5% or 8% with my preference being the higher weight, which produced a fuller experience. 3 testers in, I was still not 100% sold on it, as a pure Guava. It felt like it was 70% of the way there. Tasty, but just felt like it needed a little more focus. It was delicious enough to motivate me through 3 full testers, and other than a little lack of focus, I had no complaints. A good Guava, but just not the top of the pack. It felt fairly placed @ 7.0/10.
