The Flavor Apprentice Smooth

TexasHex

Notes

" A flavor smoothener that is useful to use in concert with other flavors- "Smooth" will round out any harsh edges and provide a thick, satisfying mouthfeel. It will soften the high notes of your blend while boosting your background notes.

*** Note: Some, but not all customers report that the smell has a fruity aspect."^[1]

" Smooth "rounds out" harshness, softening strong flavors and enchaning background aromas. It can help some mixes produce more vapor. (Some flavorings actually reduce vapor production) It can smooth or help blend flavors together....Sometimes it seems to work wonders, but I've never had it make a mix worse."^[2]

" Triacetin- Sold as aaa magic mask by fa, and is a main ingredient of mts vape wizard by fa, smooth by tpa, and flavor toner/enhancer by fw. This stuff is used in many processed foods and in cigarette filters to smooth out harsh notes. It does this by temporarily numbing certain taste receptors in your tongue. This is the reason you can stomach breakfast cereals, microwave meals, and all the added paper and other trash they put in commercial cigarettes. Likewise, it can make some ejuices tolerable, maybe even tasty, that without it would be abominable."^[3]

" In a 1994 report released by five top cigarette companies, triacetin was listed as one of the 599 cigarette additives. The triacetin is applied to the filter as a plasticizer."^[4]
