I rarely talk about vaping, let alone how I like to mix my own juice, with people in the real world. Aside from "nah, I'm vaping now" when offered a cigarette, or "oh... umm, its kind of a vanilla-y tobacco flavor, hard to explain" when asked what Im working with in my tank.
However, I've been opening that book a little more with a coworker of mine who is new to the whole vaping scene. He's in his mid 50s, first time getting off the sticks and is stuck with blinders on when it comes to preference in flavor profiles: butterscotch, and butterscotch only. Not in the least bit interested in anything else, but I'll crack that nut given enough time.
He pressed me on the "oh, umm, it's hard to explain." No one ever presses me. So, fine, here goes. Mad Scientist in his Garage making bootleg bathtub nic juice reveal time. He asked, I answered - let's skip, jump, hop on over to the point where I'm almost excitedly heading out for a smoke - erm, vape break - to pull up BCF on my phone and start looking into different butterscotch flavors.
For the first time since, oh, probably around '17, I'm on a DIY mission.
I've never mixed a butterscotch.
I'm not particularly fond of butterscotch. And I think both of those reasons are why I'm gung-ho about it. Gonna knock this old boys socks off at no charge.
Order placed, should be here in a few days.
Butterscotch by Flavorah was practically automatic after reading some words on screen from people not unlike yourselves, then Butterscotch Ripple FW, Butterbeer FW - that oughtta get me started down an alright path. Gonna guinea pig this guy into a recipe he's gonna like.
If anyone has any long time fave recipes for this profile, or suggestions of pairings from the three flavors I've got coming to me, please lay it on me. I've got all manner of things to use, sweeteners and AP and additives and whatnot, but I plan on starting Simple Simon and adjusting as he dictates.
