TFA Organic Strawberry - impressions?

[lirruping]

I'm getting ready to place a flavor order, having settled in a bit to my new place, and I've got Inawera Strawberry and Shisha Strawberry on my list. I've tried almost every other strawberry flavor I can find, and have yet to find the perfect one. I noticed when Organic showed up on TFA, but I haven't heard much about the flavor. Can anyone who's tried it contribute their take/description of this flavor?

I'm like a lot of others, I think, in that I don't taste strawberry very easily. In certain combos--with chocolate or other ingredients that somehow make it flash, I LOVE it*, but I'm not one of those who can easily appreciate it. I usually need a combination of strawbs to make it shine.


* For a recipe where strawberry really ROCKS, check out HIC's Creamy Strawberry Malt in the recipes section!

I've got organic strawberry and used it a couple times but that was a month or so ago. So I can't offer much help but I do remember it being ok. Maybe not spectacular but well worth trying a 10ml. Have you tried one on one strawberry? Their strawberry ripe, fresh and fruit are the best I've tasted. Much like FA and inawera less is often better in dealing with OOO

No I haven't tried one on one anything, actually. I usually forget about them because I don't see them at the places I shop, but I'll make a note.

I'm curious if the tfa organic strawb is basically similar to tfa ripe strawb or tfa strawb, but is perhaps made differently--or whether it's a really different flavor. I find myself with lots of pesky little flavor questions whenever I'm getting ready to make an order. I already have at least four strawbs, with three in my cart... I don't even like strawberry THAT much. I think I've just caught myself on a bender here...

When I first started vaping the Strawberry was one of the first mixes I tried, and hated them all, just figured I hated all the Strawberry flavors.
Until I tried INW Shisha Strawberry a short time ago, strange because now I really like that one, but only at 2%.

Shisha Strawberry 2%
INW Biscuit 2%
1 drop of sweetener or Stevia per 15ml

Made some for a guy at work and he commented on how good it was, and he rarely comments on anything I've made so far.
Well, except for the INW Lemon Cake made his sinus act up and didn't like Clapton Crunch.

Tfa organic strawberry
Smell/taste test.
Smells of a sweet slightly underripe strawberry. Very authentic of an actual organic strawberry. My mom buys nothing but organic everything so I'm confident in my that.
The taste is of a very fresh strawberry the more I taste a drop on the back of my hand the more promise it gives me.
Now to the Vape.
I mixed this at 7.5% in max VG (bulk apothecary) 0mg
Very weak. But the little flavor I get is bright and of a fresh organic strawberry. It is sweet most likely from the glycerin. I will be using this in my next mix but as a add in with another strawberry. I don't recommend this as a standalone strawberry. Would mix well with tfa ripe strawberry, FA red touch strawberry, Capella sweet strawberry and with OOO fresh strawberry.
The taste and smell give me hope but the strength in the mix leaves me wanting more.
Good luck with your bcv cart woes. I've been so many times lmao

Oh nooooooo, not another strawberry

I am with Heabob on the INW Shisha SB, it just does what so many other SB's get close to but miss. I just got in some Delosi SB and OoO SB Ripe, SB cotton candy. I have been extremely impressed with OoO's sweetener, nothing like anyone else's sweetener but I only use it with fruit recipes due to the apparent use of citric acid or something to that effect. I am also really impressed with OoO's Sweet and Tart, that is replacing the TFA version without a doubt. Because of those 2 experiences I am hoping the SB's from OoO impresses me as well but the smell test tells me they will fall short of INW Shisha.

Not sure at the moment on Delosi SB but got it on a friend's recommendation, he said it does what INW Shisha SB does, it doesn't get lost in a mix like most other SB's can do. The smell test tells me it is not a replacement for INW Shisha but waiting for a mix to steep a little before trying.

Dammit, TFA Organic SB will go into my BCV wish list and will probably be in my next order

What is it about OOO's sweet & tart that's superior to TFA's? Is it more potent or better/different quality of flavor? I know it can be hard to describe, but I am curious.

It is just brighter for a lack of a better word, more sweet as well, TFA SweeTangy is dryer. It has been a long time since I had an actual Sweet Tart candy, who knows, the TFA version may be more accurate.

I got maybe 10 flavors from OoO and the Sweet & Tart is the flavor that made me go wow when I smelt them all. There Flan is pretty good as well, none of the flavors I got from them are bad but Sweet & Tart was the standout flavor for me.

I would be interested to know how long the organic lasts before it fades in a mix. I made a mix with tfa ripe strawberry and it faded in a week. It was at 8%.

Guess I need shisha inw or maybe combine with tfa strawberry. I find FA lasts longer before the fade begins.

I'm getting ready to place a flavor order

Don't forget ECX carries FE Strawberry and it's pretty good too.
And FE Blackberry & FE Lemon.

Is FE diacetyl free?

Unknown, but I think most of the fruits are less likely candidates.
But then again, the INW Shisha Strawberry is also unknown.
