Had to read up on this flavor… first I’ve heard of it.

True Maureeenie, TFA Brandy is really a very strong flavour, I could smell only brandy after mixing,
btw seems impossible to get from the same supplier the 3 flavours missing to my stash and complete TPA 'original’recipe here in Italia, too bad TPA does not sell directly to Italia due to custom permissions.
Will get the 3 missing flavours in some way, will take some time anyway as I have to purchase from at least 2 different suppliers.
GPC2012 I love almonds lol, that’s why castle long is one of my favs ever.
Tomorrow I’ll receive the base (VG + PG + 36mg PG Nicotine) and whatever I’ll decide to do (use the flavours I have and try to put ‘something’ together, or maybe better wait to get the missing flavours), will keep you updated.
Btw the 3 missing flavs are:
- Kentucky Bourbon TPA
- Vanillin 10% TPA
- Coconut Extra TPA

DIY Dictionary:
Hypnotic Mist - A concentrated flavor made exclusively by Flavor Art UK. Summed up in two words describes this flavor for sure- Fruity Potpourri …WTF, WTF, WTF, WTF…

We actually have a day dedicated to it. The liquor store guy down the street knows it’s my family calling to make sure they have it. Around Christmas I make an 8 pound gourmet cheesecake and my husband and my business partner and I have a gourmet cheesecake, coffee and B&B night.
We get out the big brandy snifters, tell large fish stories, share tales of old and better days and wake up the next morning with my business partner on the couch in the basement with screaming hang over’s.
Which reminds me I need to get my cheesecake recipes in order for the holidays lol

Finally found TPA Kentucky Bourbon and TFA Coconut Extra … in SWEDEN LOL,
ordered via website dunno when I will receive the package.
Could not find vanillin 10% TPA, I’m asking if any of the following flavors could be used instead:
FA Vanilla Bourbon or FA Vanilla Classic

10% vanillin was kind of weak as I recalled. I haven’t used in a while. I would try to sub it personally.

Vanillin is very sweet but it only has a light vanilla taste.It doesn’t add flavor as much as it makes flavors blend and seem more detailed.
See if you can buy Vanillin Crystals somewhere and you can make your own.
I think you will be pleased that you did , there is little doubt that those are two of the flavors they use in Castle Long.I love the Coconut (FA) but it wasn’t what we were needing in Castle Long.

Ok, just made a 20ml batch with @BoyHowdy recipe on first post, recipe is here: Castle Brandy by BoyHowdy
It’s over the magnetic stirrer right now
I’ve reduced a little Brandy and added a little bit more Cocco to compensate, could not stand it after open it, just too strong …

After 24 Hours stirring I tested some puffs before to close the bottle and let it rest.
Not very impressed, I still can’t feel it, it’s in some way flat … without soul.
… I really hope it will get better with time.
Can’t understand what’s wrong with my procedure either, I mix by weight, scale is fine and setted, followed the recipe at 0,01 grams, still no joy…
I didn’t think could be so disappointing, lmao

Just thinking aloud but the adjustments you made might be why it’s not right? Or it may just need a good steep - this can make a ton of difference!
I’m not familiar with the original recipe though…am sure @BoyHowdy can help get you back on track 
Edited for spelling … I hate autospell!

I honestly don’t think there is a problem with your procedure @ErreVi . the only problem I feel is your ingredients.
There is a reason we have 58 Castle Long clones recipes on here and not a single one uses FA Coconut or Brandy.I honestly don’t think we can get an true “clone” while using those.The Vanillin we can cheat by using your FA classic vanilla , it won’t be the same of course but it should be a decent representation.
I know it is aggravating having to wait for flavors to come in but it is what it is.
I am going to try and make it tonight and use FA coconut and Brandy just to see how far off it is but I think @Beaufort_Batches nailed it in this earlier response.

Yes you both absolutely right, I agree 100% on everything but I was not seeking nor comparing my juice to Castle Long, I just wanted to try it with the curiousity test if the result could be something vapable lol

I like to always say the liquor flavors need time to meld. You may be happier after 2-4 weeks of steeping. Just saying. Fingers crossed for you.

IMO FA Coconut isn’t great. FA’s flavors are awesome, don’t get me wrong, but they’re very ‘true’ flavors and sometimes that’s not always a good thing. If you want fresh, unsweetened coconut, it’s great, but if you’re after that really nice toasted coconut that you’d get on top of a coconut cream pie, you’ll have to look elsewhere. The oak wood in EWS Castle Long v2 really makes it for me. It’s one of my favorite recipes and one of 2 recipes I’ve (adapted) and made in 12oz. I’m a coconut fanatic and it was every bit of everything I wanted in a coconut vape. The EWS I can vape fresh and still love it and it is almost better in a way because it has more of a bite to it that I really like. Still good when it steeps, just more mellow.

Thanks JoJo,
I’m trying to get the correct flavs, received yesterday TPA Kentucky Bourbon and Coconut Extra,
now only Vanillin is missing, I have found available and ordered Vanillin Crystals from TPA,
not sure is the one I need and if I will receive it by the end of the week anyway
