Vanilla without chemical taste
- Thread starter 2naphish

INW Sisha Vanilla is my favorite by far, no chemical taste at all.
FlavourArt Vanilla Classic (some call it Madagascar) for a traditional Vanilla
FlavourArt Vanilla Bourbon for a deeper Vanilla

What are you trying to make with the Vanillas used in such high amounts?
DIYFS French Vanilla can even be used at 5% stand alone and actually tastes great IMO.
But in recipes it's usually in the 1-3% range.
I also like INW Vanilla Bourbon, got some Shisha Vanilla but I haven't actually used it yet.
But I don't go above 3% with any Vanillas, even TFA Vanilla Swirl, at least in mixes with other things.
Exceptions for Vanilla Custard & Vanilla Bean Ice Cream tho.
Higher amounts are definitely going to take a longer steep time though.

i generally make dessert/bakery flavors for myself
funny you should mention VBIC and VC being used at higher amounts. those two used to be staples in a lot of my mixes. . i think i may have become a victim of habit when using other vanillas in mixes. i'll try staying in the 1-3% range for my creams and desserts and see how that works.
thanks for the suggestions as well . i'll be trying some of those. peace <*}}}>{
I will 2nd the vote for INW Shisha Vanilla, think vanilla pudding.
There are other vanilla's that I like and still use but the least chemical smelling for me is the Shisha Vanilla.
You're missing FlavourArt (FA) Tahity. All three of them are excellent, with slight variations in flavor.

INW Shisha Vanilla is my crack! Bright clean creamy vanilla, strong enough to stand against other flavors without being too rich. Love it!

I've used Holy Vanilla for the last 3 years. No chemical taste. When I vape too much on the weekends, sometimes I get a slight metallic taste, but it is all I use. 10% with a drop of caramel per 10ml. I am trying to find an alternative but have never come up with one. I don't like custards or French.
Today I tried dropping to 5% HV and adding a little Vanillin (10% PG Flavor Concentrate by TFA) . That smooths it out, but I would still like to add something more interesting for a little variation once in a while. But I pretty much hate everything.
Update:
The vanillin made me need antacid by mid day. I was getting heartburn from a peppery taste.
Hen I tried some vanilla swirl which I have not tried in a while. After a couple of hours, I remembered why. Exhale though the nose has a musty taste like what I don't like about custards, even though vanilla swirl is "without custard notes".

would you guys/gals consider FA's Vanilla Classic to be a good substitute for CAP's Vanilla Custard?
Completely different taste, but it's a really awesome vanilla.
The only TFA Vanilla I still use is Vanilla Bourbon.

thanks Huck, I'm going to get a 30ML bottle of it. I'm looking for a 30ML bottle of CAP's vanilla custard as well but they only have it in 13ML and 4oz bottles at ecigexpress
It is a good vanilla. But it doesn't have the thick, rich, creamy pudding like flavor the Cap custard does. The vanilla classic is closer to a vanilla extract, no creaminess but great vanilla flavor.
I've never seen sizes other than those anywhere, maybe a Capella's thing, not really sure.
You don't get a creaminess from it? Granted, I haven't mixed it solo, but anything I've mixed it in comes out creamy. Guess I never thought about it that way, though.

ahh that makes sense, I suppose I'll just settle for the 13ML bottle in the meantime.
currently have 20 concentrates in my cart, I'm so hyped!!

Did you try Gremlindiy? Also Nicotine River has great (Really good) prices, but 30ml is the smallest size they have. And TFA 60ml is smallest. They are getting the 30ml in TFA soon.

I didn't even know about those vendors Mystic, I'm going to go check them out
I wanted to initially get TFA Vanilla custard but I keep seeing mixed reviews about it which is why I'm settling for CAP's
thanks for the recommendation though

If I had to choose between them I'd pick the CAP version every time.
TFA is only fair IMO, but maybe it could be "doctored up" with some other flavor/s.
Haven't really messed with it cause I just grab my bottle of CAP

Go look in the childrens medicine section at a pharmacy for a dosage syringe, or in the section where they sell those daily pill minders. Possibly there, too.
