Inawera

ahh ok@INW Sharp. D'oh

 

[GargoyleK1]

Its crazy once you DIY and can realize what has been passed off as a premium juice…

 

[RocketPuppy]

Well I made my first diy liquid. Using the banana and caramel. It's not too bad. It does taste like the banana candy on low watts, you can taste the caramel on high watts. Using a 1.2 ohm coil at 11.5 watts is a perfect blend. Thanks for your suggestions, hubby says it will be his all day vape until I make something new. It has much more flavour than store bought. I am impressed.

What percentages did you go with?

 

[chickenmonkey]

What percentages did you go with?

Banana 3.5 % and caramel 1.2%. Thanks for your help on this.

 

[Smoky Blue]

Banana 3.5 % and caramel 1.2%. Thanks for your help on this.

now for the next step.. add a drop of cream..

 

[chickenmonkey]

now for the next step.. add a drop of cream..

As soon as my order arrives. Only have the 3 flavours so far.

 

[luciddreamer]

I'm confused. How many sub- categories of Inawera are there? I see regular, tino, and wg on their site. I wish I knew this before ordering from ECX. I got the wild strawberry and mango from a recommendation. I'm assuming these are the regular inw. What's the difference between the 3?

 

[flowerpots]

This answer is copy/pasted:

"Tino d'Milano - this is an extension of the Flavour Art range we used to sell. Then Inawera created another few flavours which were close to Flavour Art. The selection of flavours has expanded pretty quickly so Inawera decided to continue this range under name of Tino d'Milano and its fully produced only for Inawera. The concentration of the flavours is medium high so the dosage we recommend for this range is from 1-4%. The dosage is always given on the product description.

Wera Garden - this line is mainly for professionals who are experienced vapers and have knowledge about mixing. The flavours are very sophisticated such Bahraini Apple Gold or Little Space Drop. The huge success of the line lead to creation of further basic flavours such Peach, Apple, Lemon etc. The dosage for this line is 1-2% and we recommend not to overdose liquids, as it may give chemical taste."

The "House" Flavors are the 3rd type, regular type, and will say e-aromat on them. They don't all taste the same, no.

 

[RocketPuppy]

So m a n y choices

Wild strawberry is a "house", regular, or e-aromat line flavor. I haven't personally tried it yet to give any feedback on it. This also comes in concentrated version or Koncentrate. If you got the concentrated version, they suggest small %'s to start.

Mango is a Koncentrate and the regular, house, e-aromat line as well.

Wild strawberry is also listed in the tino d'Milano line. I took a whiff of the wild strawberry and it smelled like chemicals so I was wondering if there was a significant difference between the regular and tino. The mango smelled alright, I'm assuming its the regular version. Gonna give these a try ill let you know what I think.

 

[luciddreamer]

Update: I mixed the Mango, Peach, and Wild Strawberry by itself at 3% each. (1drop per 1ml) I'm getting an unpleasant floral/perfume note in all 3. Do these need steep time or should I go lower in flavor?

 

[flowerpots]

I steep all my flavors - fruits, tobaccos, and others. So, yeah, I would steep at least 24 hours, cap off if there is an alcohol/floral note. The INW bottles are 60 drops/ml with the needle-nose tip they come with. So, according to the calculator I use, you would need 3 drops/5ml=1%. I would start at 1%. I haven't worked with those specific flavors, but I have some INW fruits that are very strong, even at 1%.

 

[luciddreamer]

Yeah, I am definitely gonna start over and do 1%. Mine are from ECX so they come with the standard sized dropper. Are these alcohol based flavors? That might be where I'm getting the weird flavor notes from.

 

[flowerpots]

I'm not sure which ones are alcohol and which aren't. You may be able to see on the ECX website or even the INW shoppe website

[flowerpots]

Does ECX rebottle the Inawera flavors?

 

[Ld3441]

Does ECX rebottle the Inawera flavors?

Yes.

 

[Smoky Blue]

One of the oranges is oil based, but I forgot which one it is..
think, not positive, it is the house based.

They do provide the mds sheet for each one, so pay attention!

 

[GargoyleK1]

So the e aromat flavors are crap? Is that the basic idea here?

 

[glassgrl]

So the e aromat flavors are crap? Is that the basic idea here?

Not to me they're not. Generally speaking (with some exceptions), to me, most of the WG fruits are crap while the tobaccos and additives (tobacco absolutes, etc.) are awesome. I quite like the e-aromat fruits and some of the tobaccos aren't really all that tobacco-y until you add some of the WG to tailor them to your liking, deeper, ashy, etc. but they add nice things to fruits, spices and such, without being too heavy. I'm up in the air on the Tino D line. So far they don't float my boat. Some of the Shishas are really good, some are just redundant.

I guess it's up to you. I've tried so many TFA, LA, FW, HS, FA (tobacco) with less than stellar results. Inawera flavors agree with my tastebuds. Shrug.

 

[GargoyleK1]

I have some of both. I'll try the e aromat over this weekend to see.

ditto, GG it's just something that is personal to one's self.. I don't have nearly as much as I have bought from INA now.. but then I am playing with a bunch of herbals and well.. i tend to vape a bit different now too

 

[glassgrl]

Well, Blue, I guess so if you're vaping herbals.

 

[Smoky Blue]

nothing like putting some lemongrass in with sage and rosemary..

 

[flowerpots]

Yes.

Thanks - I did not know that.

Does any U.S. distributor sell the original Inawera bottles?

 

[Ld3441]

There is but I can't remember for sure which ones. I have enough Inawera to do me for quite some time so I have only purchased from Poland. I think it was VT that sells in the original bottles, you could email and ask them.

I have bought from VT and I got both rebottled and original factory bottles. All of my bottles from Poland were also original.

Thanks!

 

[RocketPuppy]

I'm not 100% positive, but I think Bull City sells INW in the original packaging.

 

[Cessnapix]

My new ADV is Shisha Sex On The Beach. I vaped a 30 ml bottle in a week and it didn't even have time to steep properly. The 1st time I try an alcohol flavored vape. I think I may try the Shisha Mai Tai soon. The shisha cherry was way to sweet for me.

I have the 7 wolves steeping now. I also remade the WG 3 Five. The last time i tried it was before christmas and i know it didnt steep long enough now. so I remade that and tucked it away for 6 weeks this time.

The new blueberry concentrate and the pear concentrate are the same flavor, not new and improved like I thought. However the dosing recomendation is spot on and you use less. 1drop/ml.....I think they where 3-4%?

I got rebranded re bottled different drip tip on a bottle of ry4 from VT also. Only ordered one bottle. I don't care for that. i would rather have the Original bottle and same drip tip. but thats me! I still had my empty bottle so I just switched so the drops would be the same. My order from Poland showed up in 7 days from time I placed the order. Usually between 10-14 days. I can handle that!

I am vaping way more fruit flavors with the VT nic. I think I like the tobacco better with WL nic. Jury is still out though.

 

[flowerpots]

7 days isn't bad at all...is the RY4 true to the usual flavor profile? I think I'm going to get it in my next order. What does the Sex on the Beach taste like?

 

[Cessnapix]

It has an orange smell but it taste like a fruity alcohol drink. To me the alcohol flavor kind of gives it a little more kick. I have been vaping the pear alot also.

I have only been vaping tobacco with my morning coffee. Which is unusual for me.

 

[Cessnapix]

7 days isn't bad at all...is the RY4 true to the usual flavor profile? I think I'm going to get it in my next order. What does the Sex on the Beach taste like?

I imagine it will be true to the flavor that it usually is. but It is steeping now so I don't know yet!

What I have had happen before with other companies , like hangsen. Is that the rebottled is not consistant from batch to batch or order to order. I am assuming they take it out of a ver large conatiner and do not shake it before re~bottling. But that is an assuption I do not know. I just know there was inconsistances and others noticed it as well. Who knows it could be from a 100ml bottle, or it could be from a 4 litre container? it doesnt matter if it doesnt get mixed.

I am not saying this is happening though! lets make that clear!

 

[flowerpots]

I've been reading that thread about the HS inconsistencies. I've only purchased HS and Essence from ECX. So far, I've not noticed any, but I haven't really tried enough to know yet.

I also like the pear, and based on what you are saying, I may go ahead and get the SOTB.

 

[Cessnapix]

One of the oranges is oil based, but I forgot which one it is..
think, not positive, it is the house based.

They do provide the mds sheet for each one, so pay attention!

i believe it is the e aromat because it looks different in the bottle when mixed and it needs lots of shaky shaky to get it mixed. It kind of looks oily when you mix it in the bottle the way it flows and sticks to the sides.

 

[Cessnapix]

Ok now this is one review that just kills me ...lmao .....There are a few like this.

Review: This good and authentic flavour but I can only smell and taste mango. I expectes good tropic flavour with various fruits but this is just mango flavour. Taste is still great. I use 70 drops for 10ml 15Pg /80Vg and 1 week steeping


You think maybe all you get is mango because you mixed 70 drops in 10ml and over saturated it! Why do they even post reviews like this on the website. it helps no one.

The other one was;

Review;
mixed at 10%. All i get is a strong peach flavor, if you like peach then you will like this flavor.

Well you think 10% may have screwed up the whole flavor profile? i do not even taste peach in this.

And this was on the taste testers forum!

good night!

 

[flowerpots]

70 drops for 10mls? I'm surprised there wasn't skin peeling from the inside of his/her cheeks.

Ha! Good post

 

[Smoky Blue]

The water test, Cessna.. when in doubt.. try a few drops in water.. if it blends, it isn't oil..

now who has the INA coffee ready??
will be different and ask for fresh whipped cream and a bit of sugar in mine..

 

[GargoyleK1]

Ok I did my mixes this AM… This is what I found…

5 drops per 10ml of Wera Garden does the trick for me…
10 drops per 10ml of E Aromat works well for me as well..

So from what I mixed this morning it looks like the E Aromat flavors are needed at twice the level of the Wera Garden flavors for me to achieve a nice flavor profile. The flavors are still very good. I just needed to add more.

Hope this helps someone… None of the flavors I mixed were in any way "over powered". If anything they are on the light to medium side.

P.S. These are ALL fruit flavors… Cannot speak for the other flavors at this time.

 

[flowerpots]

Has anyone tried Shade tobacco yet?

 

[Smoky Blue]

Has anyone tried Shade tobacco yet?

I has it..
Smells nice, got a few ideas..
will post up tonight.. Do you have the royal?

 

[flowerpots]

Don't have Royal...I'd be interested in your review of Shade before I buy it. I'm making in INW purchase this weekend. Have you tried the Ry4 yet?

 

[Heabob]

I'm not 100% positive, but I think Bull City sells INW in the original packaging.

Yes, BullCity sells IWN and FA in original bottles...

 

[AmandaD]

Has anyone tried Shade tobacco yet?

I use it quite a lot, generally around 1% with other things. It's an interesting and useful flavor to me - very mild at that percentage. (Assume you're talking about FA shade? I dont' think Inawera makes one?)

 

[flowerpots]

It's Inawera, but it must new - I've never seen it before: E-Flavour Shade 10 ml. Very deep, dry and bitter tobacco flavour, with a bit of fruit notes and hot popcorn, oat and light bitter taste. Dosage 6-8 drops on 10ml liquid on Dirty Neutral Base and VPG. Bottle 10/ 200 drops/ with dropper. Produced in EU.

 

[flowerpots]

@AmandaD, does that sound similar to the FA version?

 

[Cessnapix]

Has anyone tried Shade tobacco yet?

One of my favorites in the roataion. If you are talking about the Toni D' Shade. I vape it every other day or so. Has a nice dryness with a popcorn type note when 1st mixed. This goes away for the most part once it steeps but it is still there more of a dryness. this is a nice flavor for my taste. Nothing like FA's shade.

I mix this at 2% and give it a 2 week steep before use. It is some what mild and has a few notes to it where FA's shade is more subdued

i really like this one it is not really bitter if you compare it to little space drops.

I think if you go by the recommendation drops per ml on the Wera garden you will be pretty darn close. Some are close to the 5 drops/10ml but some are also 6, 8, 10. I have found the recommended percentages work really nice as a starting point on both there house blend and Wera garden. Some of the fruits do require a 3% mix so you need to watch the recommended percentages. There new Consentrated forms of the original flavors are spot on in ther recommended percentages. They are more concentrated so you need to becare ful of what you have.

 

[AmandaD]

@AmandaD, does that sound similar to the FA version?

Not at all! But then again, I've only ever mixed it at 1% in other recipes!

 

[Smoky Blue]

The more I tinker with INA, other than the shisha line, and that i can replicate with other flavor type..
the more I am so tempted to stash it away until i miss it again.. think I am burned out on it.. dunno..

i am really liking the herbals I am playing with a lot better, I had 2 batches today turn out right..
will be digging thru recipes late late tonight and if I come across any of my good ones, will make a thread on them..
I hope!!
