I've searched a lot to no avail..

I've read that (some may not like the idea) TotallyWicked Blackcurrent is the best and is used in a quite popular Blackcurrent juice so I may try that next.

I love Ribena, help please :)

Have you tired Ribena Man s juices .. if you are after blackcurrant ribbon type fings .. they are excellent

not a concentrate tho :)
 
I've not tried it yet. I got a little fed up of buying hyped juiced only to be disappointed with it nearly every time so I much prefer to make my own these says.. Although your juices are on my 'must try' list, along with a few of colonel Booms juices I haven't tried yet.

I've tried a few blackcurrant concentrates, Capella, TFA and FlavourArt. FlavourArt is my favourite of the three but it's not great.

Im not actually a fan of fruit flavours full stop .. the blackcurrant in these is strong though .. really strong its nice ... makes a good change from the earthy flavours I normally vape

Though I get your point .. problem with juice hype is that any juice is down to individual tastes .. simple as ... can be the next best thing .. if you don't like it .. you aint gonna like it .. simples!

I think for me what shows a quality juice (and you can tell - even on flavours you don't like) is the strength of flavour, mouth feel, harshness etc. even if you don't like something you can go .. "well its not to my taste - i can tell its a well crafted juice, even if the flavour isn't for me"

I've been spending a lot of time trying to find mouth feel lately.. Adding vape Wizard, bitter Wizard, sour, smooth, lemon juice.. Etc etc and found a little sour helps with fruits but the main thing that gave me it was a lot of flavour, flavours that are 'hiding' but add to the overall mix. Adding a tiny bit of pineapple to berries for instance, I can't taste it but it's certainly added to the overall flavour.

To make my blackcurrant so it didn't trigger my allergy to warm fruit, I used a hefty dose of koolada(when I started smoking, I suddenly became allergic to citrus, dairy and a heap of other foodstuffs and as I got older the reactions reduced until present day, if I get stressed or very warm, I start itching like a flea ridden dog. This can also be triggered with warm tangy fruits, such as blackcurrant vapour lol )
The koolada reduces the sensation of warmth in my mouth and confuses my allergy :D
 
Not really ... £6.00 posted .. no more expensive than any other bespoke juice really

Fair does didn't think about that. Would love to know how to make a ribena flavour though :-)
