Quality concentrated flavours are the building blocks of DIY. Experimenting with profiles from various manufacturers enables you to build an inventory on which you can unleash your creativity.
Flavouring companies such as FlavourArt, Flavorah, Juice factory, TFA and Capella’s produce excellent quality and versatile flavours.
Create
Starting with as little as 6 or so flavours allows one to create a number of profiles that can satisfy as an all day vape.
An example could be a blended tobacco with a touch of caramel, vanilla and an underlying note of nuts or bourbon.
Given the vast array of available flavours, the possibilities are endless.
Satisfy
Having a variety of flavour profiles can assist with transition. They can also satisfy long-term.
Although there are countless recipes online, hone your skills through practice and trial and error, creating your own unique profiles.
Developing something unique is both encouraging and satisfying.
