cherry menthol

[possiblevaper]

I made my own cherry menthol with tino d'milano cherry and menthol concentrate but its not quite right. my favourite vape is vaping king cherry bomb which is amazingly sweet like in your face sweet which i love and the menthol is just right. the juice i made has the right amount of menthol but the cherry is medicinal and not so sweet.
He discribes is as sweet cherry with a hint of cinnamon and a blast of menthol.

so obviously i should get some cinnamon to add, i cant really taste any cinnamon in cherry bomb though so do you guys think a touch of EM would work the same?

its just i have some EM on the way but i dont want to buy a 10ml pot of cinnamon to use 0.1ml and then not like it haha. or if anyone can send me 0.1ml of cinnamon that would be great lol

Cinnamon is pretty strong - you don't need much to taste it (I use about 3 or 4 drops in a coffee blend, and its quite noticeable) - it's also one of those flavours you love or hate (I love real cinnamon, hate cinnamon flavour sweets, but find it OK in small quantities in a juice).

I would also imagine that it's quite difficult to recreate a recipe - obviously anyone with a successful blend won't want to make it easy for anyone to replicate.

I think you might be better trying to make something of your own that you like as much as Cherry Bomb, rather than try to copy it (which will probably always be a disappointment).

Maybe start by looking at the sweetness if that seems to be the main thing currently missing, and add some sweetener until that seems right. Then taste again to see if there's anything else you feel would improve it for you.

oh, and finding a GOOD cherry flavour is pretty difficult. I have a Cherry food flavouring on order, I'll let folk know if that's better than the many disappointments out there

thanks for the info, would the ethyl stuff (EM) sweeten it or is some actual sweetener needed? confused as people have said EM sweetens

I don't have any, but I believe EM is a sweetener. To be honest, most of my blends have toffee, butterscotch or maple in them, so I've never found myself in need of sweeteners

EM is less of a sweetener and more of a blending agent,I find it really helps flavours blend and smooths out the rough edges for want of a better term. I'm hoping to be doing a lot more reviews on flavourings on here over the coming months,as a flavourist for the company I work for I'll be trying concentrates from pretty much all the main companies,apart from Capella because they can't be bothered to answer emails.

What's the sweetener then? I know there's 2 additives, one a "smoother" and one a sweetener

I wouldn't mind if they tasted like cherry sweets - but they don't seem to taste of anything.

I have high hopes for the Fantasy Fudge Cherry concentrate
