Hey people
( To add to the fun, some of my flavours are now about 6 years of age and seem to have lost some of their character, but let’s maybe keep it to those I have reordered out of desperation)
I am really struggling to get pineapple INW to do anything. Tried at 2 and got a hint on pineapple in the back, and at 3% where I get massively watered down pineapple juice. Could bump to 5 but it feels like a lot for an inw concentrate. Oh, and that’s a fresh reorder from a fresh batch from nomnomz ( which nicely has best before and batch dates)
Any suggestions? Pairings? Maybe a supporting flavour?

@SuperFrog I’m about 100% sure it’s going to need …
Sugarloaf Pineapple (VTA) 4% (6-9-20) – Having just tested VTA’s Pineapple Juice, and having had a “so-so” reaction to it, AND, having used this one many times, was anxious to really solo it. My previous experience in mixes, mirror my SFT here. This one is a Pineapple Powerhouse. No other way to put it. It actually pushed my beloved INW Pineapple off it’s perch as my number one. This “sugarloaf” pineapple should be re-named “sugarLOAD” pineapple. It’s sweet, bright, punchy, and damned delicious. It leans on the sweet side, but not too sweet. Sugarloaf pineapple is a white pineapple, that I’ve never eaten, but I sure would LIKE to now. Very natural, multi-dimensional, and interesting to vape. Nothing artificial tasting to my tastes, and wherein VTA’s Pineapple Juice presented to me as somewhat dull and/or lifeless, this one was the exact opposite. BPD (Bright, Punchy, Delicious), just is really all you need to know on this one. Typically I would think even as good as this is, it will probably be mixed with INW Pineapple, or maybe CAP Golden Pineapple just to round things out, but I’ve used it as the only Pineapple and it worked out GREAT. . So it’s not required, but an option. This one leaned heavier in the mid and high notes, with less lower/darker notes, and it does it well. Hands down a GREAT flavor, and IMO, should be on your VTA Must Have List. 10/10 , zero hesitation.

I’ll second the Sugarloaf Pineapple. Another good one I normally pair with it is MB Funky Pineapple.

I have sugar loaf vta (one old one new bottle actually)
What would be the advice ? Something like 3% inw + 3% vta?
Was trying to do my SFT

3-4% should work great for SFT levels.

I’ll have a go at sugar loaf alone at 3 and see xha t I think.
You seem to be a former fan of inw’s pineapple. What would be your recommendation on this one?

I’m interested in trying the Sugarloaf pineapple. I get my consecrates BCF they do not list vta but they do have vt, are they the same. I also don’t see vt listed on the recipe side. I assume they are the same, but just wanted to verify it.

Did a tester of sugar loaf at 2.5%
After a couple days, it tastes as burnt green ass. I’ll let it be a while more.
Is there such a thing as pineapple muteness? Like for straw?

I don’t get much from the sugarloaf lower than 4% unless I pair it with inw pineapple.

I don’t usually do pineapple forward mixes but when I want to know the pineapple is there sugarloaf 3% & INW 2%.

I suspect it is either me or my flavours that are off.
Have just received new pinapple INW and sugarloaf VTA, will try the new ones and see how it goes.
