Flavor West Butterscotch
HashSlingingSlashur
Setup: Mutation v4, Dual 24g N80 7 wrap 3mm id, full wicks
Testing: FW Butterscotch Natural at 4% (70%pg) steeped 5 days.
Flavor Description: This is a light, creamy butterscotch. Very milky and buttery, I think butyric acid is used here for butteryness. Notes of brown sugar and vanilla. Not candy like whatsoever, this is a butterscotch cream if anything. I like it as a standalone.
Off-flavors: Butyric acid, just needs to steep a couple days but it can be a bit funky as a shake and vape. Reminds me of FLV Pistachio because of how creamy it is and the butyric acid taste.
Throat Hit: Kind of perfect, I get a minimal throat hit when hitting this a couple times in a row. Nothing scratchy but its there. 5/10
Uses: I would use this as a base for a butterscotch cookie or ice cream at 4-5%. Can lend some creamy and buttery qualities at lower % but I have not worked extensively with it.
Pairings: Bakery and Creams forever. Other Butterscotch, Caramel, coffee, tobacco, nuts, and some fruits like banana, apple/pear, coconut and maybe apricots.
Notes: This is my first butterscotch flavoring. I wanted to use it for an ice cream flavor and I’ve got a good start on one.
