Real Flavors Blueberry SC
HashSlingingSlashur
Setup: velocity v2; dual 24g SS316 7 wrap; full cotton wicks
Testing: Blueberry (Super Concentrate) 2% aged: 3 days 60/40 vg/pg 1mg nic
Flavor description A sweet, bakery type blueberry. I’m getting the realistic dark berry notes upfront with a sweet macerated blueberry throughout the exhale. It’s not sugary per se but it has that baked taste like the ‘blueberry’ in a Lil Debbie’s blueberry muffin. Not a very dense flavor and lacking in body (mainly getting top and bottom notes).
Off-flavors: Nothing really, no fruit peels or anything like that.
Throat hit: Smooth, little to none.
Uses: I’m sticking this in muffin recipes right at 2-3% so that it stands up to whatever else I throw at it. This is not like FW blueberry and the closest thing I could say would be FA bilberry. This is like a slightly brighter bilberry to me, so I’d use also where you might use that but don’t want such a dark berry flavor.
Pairings: Other berries (especially other blueberries, blackberry or raspberry), fruits (apples, pears, orange, peach, pineapple, rhubarb, banana and watermelon), creams, custards, cinnamon, nuts especially almond, honey, ginger
Notes: I have not worked extensively with this and I’m not sure which other blueberry I want to join with this one (to add body) but I am leaning toward CAP blueberry 1-2% + RF blueberry 1-2% for bakery stuff, custards and blueberry blends. I think this one will need help standing up to heavier stuff like TPA VBIC or CAP VC. I’d keep the creams lighter, maybe stuff w/o diketones like FLV cream or FA Vienna/fresh.
This is not the answer to blueberry struggles but it is a nice flavor and I gotta say I prefer it to FW or CAP standalone just because it is not tiring to vape on. Edit: take this with a grain of salt, I just can't enjoy blueberry for too long before it tires my sense out, especially the very candy/jammy artificial ones.
Second Opinions Limited notes about the VG version on ELR
Not too much out there but if you have had the RF blueberry muffin this is the same blueberry without the muffin.
