I need some opinions

[kimsmm]

I am about to place an order with flavors that I've never tried before. I wanted a bunch of cool, refreshing flavors that are a summery feeling type. I have on my order list:
Cap's-
Pink Lemonade, Harvest Berry, Lemon Lime
TFA's-
Tutti Frutti, Hypnotic, Apple Candy, Cherry Blossom, Pina Colada
FA's-
Forest Fruit, Hypnotic Mist, Mad Fruit, Summer Clouds, Tutti Frutti

Questions:
What else would you recommend?
Your opinion on the flavors chosen and any advice with them.
What is the difference b/t Hypnotic and Hypnotic Mist
AND
b/t FA and TFA Tutti Frutti

I appreciate any input

If you like minty try CAPs Cool Mint. I have FA Summer Clouds and it's getting all rusty and dusty in my drawer. Maybe I'll give it another try one of these days. I can't remember what it taste like, I just know I wasn't impressed so I never touched it again. I mixed up some INW Cherimoya with FA Fresh Cream & INW Shisha Vanilla and it's one everyone should try. Very, VERY summery fruit. Dare I say..... THE BEES KNEES.

TFA Tutti Fruitti has a definite dry taste to it. I personally don't like it, but to each their own. Might not be what you are looking for. Have yet to try FA tutti.

FA Mad fruit has a strong deep cherry flavor to me. Can be a good addition to other flavors, but I wouldn't call it a "summer" flavor. And it's a fairly "heavy" flavor if that makes sense. Would get it anyway.

Apples are not summer fruits, but FA Fuji is a must have anyway. Very crisp and fresh. The TFA apple candy is good, but not my favorite, and I had to use a ton of it. Somewhat lackluster.

Might already have these, but FA watermelon, FA lemon sicily (lemonade/lemon ice), TFA Juicy Peach, FA Peach, TFA Blueberry Wild, FA Citrus Mix, and FA lime tahiti are all good summertime flavors to me. FA kiwi I really like too. Has a refreshing sweetness. Kinda my "x factor" "seasoning" in a couple juices.

I need to get some forest fruit. seems to be in high regard.

No real experience with cap, so no help there.

LOL
Don't have the Shisha Vanilla- but I'm adding it right now! I haven't even touched my bottle cherimoya, but now I am looking forward to it. I am adding the mint also! Thanks Squonk!!!

Do you think TFA Tutti Fruitti can be added to a custard or milky flavor to reduce the dryness? FA Mad fruit actually sounds better after your description. I love a cherry vape but I've never had one I've cared for in my DIY world You are right about the apples, it is more a autumn fruit. I love apples, maybe I can buff it up some with something else. I'll have to sit on that. I've been mixing with those flavors you mentioned for a little while and they are all really good. I can't live without FA lemon sicily, it is very addicting.
I am really looking for something I have never tried before. To find my "X Factor" if you will.
Thanks for the input!

Havent tried the tfa tutti fruity with creams etc. Tried in a couple recipes and its not for me.

The fuji I would get for sure if you don't have. I even use it in mixes at low % just to kinda bring some fresh crispness.

And the mad fruit is good. Kinda tastes like dried cherries to me.

Little more familiar with FA flavors .. but summer type mixes I would think fruit ... cantaloupe, honeydew, watermelon (any melon really), FA makes a good white grape, Orange (any citrus really - lemon, Lime, FA's mandarin orange! ), and yes KIWI!!, INW Kactus!!, Strawberry (insert brand here...;p), grapefruit can be fun, pineapple, peach & White Peach!, pear (FA pear is a good sweetener), coconut...

If you haven't placed your order yet I'd check here: http://www.hicsmixes.com/fruity.html I always find something good there, usually after I have ordered -then am short a flavor.. haha

I have quite a bit of the basic flavors already on hand. Honeydew and cantaloupe are on my list now. I don't like Kactus at all. IDK why, but whatever I mix it with it tastes bad to me. I have even purchased HIC's Kaktus collection and tried all of them. As soon as I uncap the bottle I get a smell that don't go away and is worse to vape. I get the same problem with cranberry ugh. And I absolutely love cranberry as far as food/drinks go. I KNOW HIC makes delicious recipes, I use his recipes all the time, so it's got to be the flavor I hate.
Last I counted I have around 200+ flavors, and I forget that I can use single flavors, but I've never had any luck just using one flavor - Although I do admit that I don't have much time to play around as much as I like to- just because, well, LIFE. lol It seems I never have enough time for myself like that. I figured I could purchase a straight out mix such as tutti fruitti and get something quick like that I could enjoy.

FA Tutti Fruitti is very similar to Juicy Fruit gum if you like that.

I used the Forest Fruit when I made Sully's Sweet Berry Mash & have to say it was a really nice flavor!
Can't wait to use it again.
