I'm always excited to get a new flavor order in but Kevin has just upped my excitement by 1000!!! @Vaperstek any chance you guys will be redoing the descriptions on the German flavors? Don't get me wrong, I like surprises but some of those descriptions tell you nothing.
is vaping helpful for quit cigarette smoking ?

Talon, We will add some additional information as we can get to it..
Certainly true for the vast majority on this forum. Some estimate over a million people have quit smoking tobacco with assistance or a switch to vaping. It worked for me -- and is easier than you might imagine.

Sure they can't advertise it as an aid to quit smoking but it definitely works. My 1 year anniversary is coming up and I don't even think about cigarettes anymore. It took just 5 days of vaping for me to completely quit cigarettes. And I was coming from a 20 year habit and smoked a pack to a pack and a half everyday. This shit is a lifesaver!!!
I quit smoking with snus. I still snus occasionally for the flavor. I prefer vaping because I feel it's cleaner. I haven't had a cigarette in years. I can breathe now
Speculoos (Dutch: Speculaas Dutch pronunciation: [spekyˈlaːs], French: spéculoos, German: Spekulatius) is a type of spiced shortcrustbiscuit, traditionally baked for consumption on or just before St Nicholas' feast in the Netherlands (December 5), Belgium (December 6),[1] and around Christmas in Germany. In recent decades it has become available all year round. Speculoos are thin, very crunchy, slightly browned and, most significantly, have some image or figure (often from the traditional stories about St. Nicholas) stamped on the front side before baking; the back is flat.
Speculoos dough does not rise much. Dutch and Belgian versions are baked with light brown (beet) sugar and baking powder. German Spekulatius uses baker's ammonia as leavening agent. Spices used in speculoos are cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger,cardamom and white pepper. Most Speculoos versions are made from white flour, brown sugar, butter and spices. Some varieties use some almond flour and have slivered almonds embedded in the bottom. Some Belgian varieties use less or no spice.
I dropped the percentage to 3% because the spices overpowered the shortbread. Results are, I wish I was decorating a Christmas tree right now
This flavor is blowing my mind !

This is the flavor of the cookies you get on on airplane. If this tastes like those, my wife will be in heaven when we can actually order this flavor.
I hope it is. The Speculoos flavoring has a touch of clove, nutmeg, and cinnamon. I'm trying to find the white pepperThis is the flavor of the cookies you get on on airplane. If this tastes like those, my wife will be in heaven when we can actually order this flavor.

Those spices sound about right to me. How is the shortbread flavor in it??
Buttery perfection. Just needs the crunch

Chris,My put it in the cart finger was getting itchy but alas... custard seems to be out of stock
Kevin, a co-worker is between smoking stinkys and cigalikes. I have a setup I am going to let him use and want to find a mellow light cigarette flavor for him.
Any suggestions from the German tobacco choices ?
No other flavors, just a straight tobacco.
I think using a real mod and atty may be whats needed for him to give up the stinkys.
Thanx,
Chris
The burley is unlike any burley I have ever tasted. remarkable. The bald eagle and american blend silver tobacco are great.
And for anyone interested.. The toffee is OFF THE CHARTS GREAT!!!!!!

Most who ordered will get today or tomorrow. Some went out monday, and since post office was closed yesterday the rest are going out today.. I had to redo some labels so if you see this and your package has not moved after today, let me know and I will get the tracking for you.
Yes, I saw nothing to make me suspicious of their claims.
EDIT: MY BAD!!! I was confusing German Flavours with another (Greek) company that does biological testing similar to FlavourArt's Clearstream program. The above is NOT true, to my knowledge.
I'm sorry!

USPS up to their nonsense again. They decided I wanted my package forwarded? To some town I've never heard of hours and hours away? I hope they enjoy my flavorings. doubtful I will see them anytime time soon.

That's awful ! I've had that happen to me after waiting 40 days from Poland. It took a couple of days to receive it after that. You'll get them soonUSPS up to their nonsense again.

Now you tell me. I ended up making a double batch of strawberry Cheesecake.
I thought the Lemon Cheesecake wasn't available? Did I miss it? LOL
He did you right! Nice job, @Vaperstek.
Interested to know how it comes out! I'm working on strawberry and blueberry.

Me too! I was supposed to leave for Fl today but it got called off. Not really that upset cuz vape mail is coming. Sick. lol
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salty_liquorice
This is one of my favorite things to eat. My son's girlfriend lives in Sweden. I always have plenty of salty liquorice to munch on. As for the flavor, I was skeptical. I said no way can someone replicate this. I can't even find a stellar liquorice that doesn't fade. Or the wick turns to black gunk. Well, these German masterminds nailed this mofo !! The taste is not salty. Just a hint. The liquorice, I swear it tastes exactly like it was extracted from the real root. The ammonium chloride is in here too ! Unbelievable ! Now this is an acquired taste. You really have to be a black liquorice fan to enjoy this one Inhaling this is another experience. It's very numbing when it hits the buds. The nose hit is just remarkable. This is a flavor that not only tastes amazing, but feels freakin fantastic ! I would love to see others enjoy this as much as I do WOOHOO !!!!

Question for you guys and gals. Why would any stand alone single pre mixed flavor need any type of steeping to make it taste good?

My theory is because it's the same as when we make a base. Multi-flavored mixes generally do benefit from some form of steeping, whether it be time or heat. Same with these multiflavored mixes from my experience (and many of the ones I got are multiflavors).
Back in post #78 of this thread - I SCREWED UP! I said German Flavours does biological testing on their flavors, similar to FlavourArt's Clearstream program. That was actually a different (Greek) company, NOT German Flavours. I'm very sorry, didn't intend to mislead anyone!
From German Flavours website: We expressly waive diacetyl. diacetyl research show that diacetyl promotes various aspects of amyloid-beta aggregation. Such beta Agreggationen be associated with Alzheimer's disease. Flavorings with diacetyl or related diketones therefore not used in our products are used.

Its Ok HIC, we all know that vaping is "cutting edge" and there are many flavoring companys we buy from everyday that do not do biological testing. My guess is with Eu rules being usually tighter than usa rules, that they are as fine as anyone elses.

Go by item number until your German kicks in
I see the item number on my bottles but I don't see them on your website or when I look my order up on your website. If you were referring to the invoice that ships in the box, that went into the garbage with the box.
*update*
I'm good. I got a little advice from Google!

I don't taste any diacetyl in any of mine. Not sure though that I could pick some of the diketones. I suspect the tracetin is giving me a bitter taste in the cheesecakes, though - which I know not everyone picks up. In fact I had a friend test the strawberry cheesecake today (after a quick heat steep last night) - she immediately picked up that it was cheesecake, which is pretty impressive!
By the way - the rhubarb flavor is dead-on rhubarb - it's fabulous!

Awesome ! May I ask what percentage did you mix the cheesecakes ? 7% seems too high for me.
Yup, I did 7%, which I'm sure was too high for the blueberry. I mixed everything at the written percentage except a couple that I halved (marzipan and zimstern).
