The Black Label FT was pretty freaking great too. I havent had either in a really long time, i might have to try and order some.

Thank you. This is where testing flavors come in handy. There’s some good stuff that happens after 6-7 days with the FT. I’d have never known that going in blind mixing with it.

Speaking of which, have you ever used this FT and what’s your take on it? I’ve asked SD in another thread. I’m trying to figure out if the Pure Raw was the only version of FT V2 (SC) (RF) or if there was a regular (non-Pure Raw) FT V2 (SC) (RF)?

Thought I’d give this a try. Fear is one of my sturdy go tos when it comes to mixing others’ tobacco recipes.

@muth I think French Toast 2 had a short lifetime, and the Pure Raws were phased out a long time ago. I only had a 10ml bottle of it, and after I got the Clove from it, didn’t really use it, and don’t have the bottle any more. It may have been a Pure Raw, but not sure.
Since DIY Ejuice owns the line, that’s pretty much what you can get now. I see they added a French Toast with Eggnog, and there is also a Stuffed French Toast as well. Those are your current choices.

Lotta older posts, looks like the Raw’s were killed in 2016 …

Hey all, only been here a short while but never posted before. I’ve made quite a few DiY flavours from recipes here, but they never turn out particularly flavourful (e.g. made Strawberry Fog yesterday, but it’s not a particularly strong flavour). Could this be the VG/PG brand I’m using? Has anybody else found changing VG/PG supplier has changed flavour “strength”?

Leave it to steep and taste every few days. Personally I don’t care for fresh mixes, just throw them in the box for a few weeks.

Agreed for every recipe of Strawberry Fog (a Strawberry Cheesecake) have a few creams that are usually used, ie Bavarian, cheesecake, and custard will typically take a week or two to allow the flavor to develop.

Typically VG and PG will not affect flavor, now some Nicotine will affect the flavor and taste of eliquids. With PG based nicotine I have found that recipes tend to develop quicker, I personally use VG based nicotine and I have found that recipes tend to take a few days to reach premium flavor. Salt nic can dull some eliquids which require using slightly high concentrations of flavor. And some nicotine like synthetic nicotine can drastically change the flavor of eliquids.

May not be the case here but lots of people are strawberry mutes and cant really taste strawberry. You kind of get a hint that its a strawberry with a little pink note but not the full on saturated strawberry

Thx for all the info on RF, Pure Raw, etc. I was gifted a Pure Raw SB from a friend several yrs ago and I’m astonished that it still tastes very good. Maybe it was the last of the line. Still, that’s a good run for a flavor.

@muth TBH, 2016 was a lifetime ago, hehe, so I can’t remember all of the nuances of the Pure Raw’s, comparisons to the SC’s, as it seems one just disappeared, and the other replaced it. Not even sure if I noticed.
I was only able to score TWO of the Black Label flavors, and I did NOT get the French Toast. BUT, if you read some of @Walt_RealFlavors old posts from above, there WAS mention of the Black Labels REPLACING the existing flavors, so it was really confusing to say the least.
I’ll have to break out my RF SC bin, and see how many of them are Raws or SCs.

I dont believe there was.
The SB RAW was much more ripe than the later versions, i still have some and it is excellent. I sent some to @fidalgo_vapes maybe he will have some thoughts we he gets to it.
The original RAWs were different and in my opinion much better, i have a few of the RAWs left. Ill take a look at what i have and see what i can send.
