Hibiscus isn’t going anywhere… resellers have it…
think he said it was an issue with one of the compounds in it and they are waiting on production… it will be back
That is all from the flavors…
Quote:
Hibiscus is temporarily down as we are having a sourcing issue on one of the compounds in the flavor. Several of our re-sellers still have it available which is why I have said not to remove it from ELR. New flavors will be on the horizon but not coming out soon. No other flavors are currently unavailable
He got back to me this morning with just that.
I opted not to share it, as I thought it was better suited for he or you to make public (just in case).
But yes, that’s why I didn’t amend post #1 and add Hibiscus FLV.
Came on to update the list of Flavor Revolution and Purilum flavors that are being discontinued, and realized that I forgot to update the “first batch” of discontinued flavors that were announced back in Dec 2018 in this post:
NOTE: Only including the ones sold exclusively by Nicotine River now River Supply Co. (in other words: Flav.Rev. and PUR)
See next post for today’s announced disco’s (Which will have to be compiled by hand).
Well to be fair @Sprkslfly they may not be discontinued just not available at river.
I believe Flavor Revolution are available else where and Purilum can be bought direct so another supplier may pick them up (River supply are the Nth American distro for Purilum but I dont think that stops other companies dealing direct with Purilum if they are not in Nth America)
I couldn’t remember if that was the case or not…
Do you recall where else they can be bought??
Have we (you or anyone else ) seen them elsewhere under the same brand name?
(I use that specific question because I don’t even remember seeing the notion of the possibility discussed that someone thought XYZ brand might be Pur or FR. Not that it’s impossible mind you. lol Just saying I don’t recall seeing it yet.)
You know I’m always too happy to help spread the word when we find out such things from reputable sources!!
Not to mention, it’s easy enough to edit later! grins
Just wanted to compile the list now, while I’m thinking about it and have time (instead of the post before this that should have been included a year ago (and it escaped me until now.)
Purilum can be bought directly from them (outside Nth America) but the MOQ is kind of big at 5 gal which is why it would take another vendor to pick them up.
Re FR I am not sure but I believe @anon84779643 knows the owner IIRC his name is Frank maybe some light could be shed on that? In my searches I found a bunch of places mentioning Flavor Revolution but I think there is more than one company with that name.
Yeah… just found a “foods company” (no flavorings found) but they use the UK/EU spelling of Flavour Revolution (appear to be a wholly unrelated company though that specializes in non-GMO etc)
Only guessing here… but I just looked over his current listings (from the link I gave above) and he doesn’t have any of the one’s that NR discontinued in Dec 2018 available.
Black Licorice
Camp Fire
Cantaloupe
Coconut
Cotton Candy
Custard*
Graham Cracker
Honey
Honey Cake
Hot Cocoa
Marshmallow
Pineapple
Raspberry Jam
Strawberry Candy
Traditional Menthol
Ah I was so close @anon84779643 could you ask him if there are other outlets other than River Supply & if the flavours @Sprkslfly is marking as discontinued are in fact discontinued.
Cheers
Waiting on his response… I think he told me River is the only place, but I would rather him reply than I… I could have things mixed up, as it has been a hot minuet since the last time he and I have talked…
even though Happy Taffy strawberry isn’t listed in the above shot, the database number for it coincides with the number on Green Apple (same category), so I’m assuming I merged these to a higher number before I had access to edit the flavor names by hand.
Also touched on a variety of other dupes tonight… TFA, Cap, etc. (I’m BEAT! lol), and sent some PM’s (via recipe comment) to some folks who may not be familiar with some of the naming issues (stones etc).
Cheers folks!
Hope ya’ll have a great day!
