Notes
Tested at 3%
Nice hops flavor. Earthy, somewhat dry (but that calms down with steep it seems), has floraly/citrusy notes about it. Provides an interesting body to the vape, considering it's bright and light. I can see this working itself in to a lot of different types of vapes, especially with florals, earthy notes, citrus. Overall I enjoy the vape it gives. With the body it gives this works great as a base flavor. I could see using it to accent other ingredients as well.

Here the Yakima hops serve as a base flavor, providing body and being the main flavor the other notes sort of ride on. The Guava and Elderflower play off the of citrus and floral/earthy notes that you get from the hops. You can bring the Guava up to 0.5% to bring it more forward, it's really just accenting the Hops in this application.
