Liquid Barn Tasting Notes

Spot on description mate thank you. This is the only concentrate that I have bought in a100ml bottle when for some reason it became very scarce in the U.K. a month or two ago, I normally only buy my concentrates in 10ml bottles so that says a lot about this flavour. I just love all of that D.A.A.P. :drooling_face:

TPA Sweet Cream has to be one of the worst offender of BA but steeped for awhile the Sweet Cream is pretty good

Yep, I always check to see if there is a @SessionDrummer review on anything newish I see. Helps a lot to have a consistent reviewer that we can relate to by comparing the multitude of tests to our own experience.

Been responsible for a few purchases I otherwise would not have madeā€¦

Wow @Ianc13 thatā€™s very high praise, especially from you. I have to say, I think you ARE very wise, in stating COMPARING my tests to your own. Very smart, and ALWAYS the best way to roll, as our tastes are OUR tastes.

Iā€™m glad to hear that, and can only hope I didnā€™t lead you astray.

Well, not only do we have different perceptions of flavours, abilities to taste different nuances and polar opposite olfactory systems, but we mostly use different modalities of vaping too so what you may get testing DTL will be different from what I get MTL.

Therefore, I read your reviews of flavours I have, compare them to the experience they give to me, and that gives me a base point on any new ones I am interested in.

Nope, not as such. Some have been less spectacular at the percentages you tested at, but playing around with that helps most of the time.

For instance, the Cheesecake Olympus (FA) 2.5% test you did persuaded me to purchase it as a ā€œfree shipping fillerā€ on a purchase. You rated it 9.4/10 at that percentage but I only give it a 5. I am still waiting on a longer steep to see if it improves, but I think this may be a mixer for me with other cheesecakes rather than a standalone.

All good though, without trying these things we would never knowā€¦

@Ianc13 and with the fact, that I do indeed MTL about 50% of the time, and am currently stuck on the lazy, single/double fruits, am VERY interested in that, as I need to EXPAND my MTL choices.

I did this at 8% too and it seems quite muddled, certainly not a clear VIC for my palette. Willndrop it down like you did and see what it does.

At times, I get SICK of hearing the voices in my OWN head, as to what I feel, think, or taste, and enjoy hearing what other people think, ESPECIALLY with flavors that I have already tested. Like you said, it ADDS perspective, and much more.

As far as the Cheesecake Olympus, do you think (assuming you are MTL) that it needed to be much higher to come through in MTL, or maybe just a non-starter for you ?

Iā€™ll be curious to hear how that turns out for you. Flavors can be quite interesting, and many act DIFFERENTLY when pushed too high. Some interesting, some terrible, and like you said, some just get muddled. Thatā€™s actually a good word choice @Ianc13.

I have a feeling that it might be more of a thick cream for me. I think of NY Cheesecake ā€œbakedā€ style or biscuit crust with a cheesy style filling as that is what I grew up with. I usually add a Dash of FW Cheesecake to my CC mixes to help with that so I think the Olympus is a little bland in that respect.

However, it is still steeping (nearly 5 weeks) so am still testingā€¦

I guess it would be easy to overthink and forget the golden rule that all taste is subjective. You provide a guide, based on your perceptions, and I have yet to see anything unrelatable to what I get from the same flavours, just my experience is different at times. A bit like steak, the base ingreadient is the same but what you taste compared to what i taste can be similar but differentā€¦ know what i mean?

Are you soley MTL ? I didnā€™t want to keep asking if you were MTLā€™ing THIS, or MTLā€™ing THAT.

If so, I donā€™t think I have EVER MTLā€™d a Cheesecake.

100% mate. Canā€™t even do restricted dtl, just doesnā€™t work for me.

WOW. I mean youā€™ve probably told em that OVER and OVER, and either I misunderstood, or forgot. I knew you MTLā€™d, but now, WOW. We gotta pow-wow on some flavors, as I KNOW you have offered MTL specific advise, for flavors that Iā€™d never considered MTLā€™ing. Sure, sure, you can OVER simplify and say, ā€œJust double flavors for MTL or Podsā€, but itā€™s a little more complicated than that.

Very interestingā€¦

Vaping IS vaping, but my experience with DTL vs. MTL has been VERY different, at least as far as flavors, usage rates, saturation aspects, nuances that carry over well, and others that do not.

It is, but it also isnā€™tā€¦

Perhaps we should move this off the LB thread mateā€¦

Lets go to All things MTL insteadā€¦

Sorry for derailing this subject guys. :upside_down_face:
