Grasshopper

[beedee]

This is based on the recipe for the Grasshopper Cocktail, which is 3/4 ounce green creme de menthe,  3/4 ounce white creme de cacao
and 3/4 ounce single cream, never tried the drink itself, so do not know if this is anything like it!

After a bit of fiddling with % this turned out to be a nice vape, though, mint with balancing chocolate and creamy undertones.

9.00% Creme de Menthe II (The Flavour Apprentice)

3.00% Chocolate Deutsch (Flavorah)

2.00% Sweet Cream (Capella)

2.00% VANILLA CUSTARD V1 (Capella)

0.25% Koolada (Perfumers Apprentice)

I steep for about 3 weeks. 

charliehorse - if I remember you expressed an interst in this one!


And a label!

Ooh this sounds delicious, I love the cocktail.

Thanks for the tag beedee - I did indeed express an interest in this and a fondness for the cocktail

I'll need to order a couple of the ingredients but will definitely be mixing some of this up soon

a quick edit to ask where you got the VII Crème de Menthe - just been on chefs site and can only find the original ?

I'll hazard a guess it was from Rainbow Vapes charliehorse , as beedee is a frequent visitor.

I've Lorann's version which I'll give a go . . . . .

Great label too

[beedee]

Thank you all.

Yes, charliehorse, as Perpetua says it was Rainbowvapes, I'd like to say I ended up with the V2 rather than V1 after careful comparison, but actually it was because it was cheap in a sale....

[charliehorse]

Thanks Perpetua and beedee 👍

All ordered and pleasantly surprised it was only a minimum £10 for free shipping. Also liked the option to check out with pay pal without having to create an account and the site search seemed a lot better than chefs.

Sounds gorgeous and cannot go wrong with anything with Choc Deutsch in it! Is now on the list to try when mixing re-commences shortly

I tried to do my last order on Chefs, but got fed up with having to search through every brand for what I knew was there, so I gave up and went to RV. I sent them an e-mail and told them I would not be buying from there again until they sort it. It is Ok for browsing, but not if you want specific flavours. Shame, because I like them. They did reply nicely and said they would sort it, so fingers crossed!

There's a new website coming at some stage which should make searching easier/better/accurate(!) . . . . . meanwhile I find doing a Google search the best option when looking for specific flavours on Chefs.

That's not to take anything away from Rainbow Vapes as I've found them to be an excellent company to deal with, swift and also very reasonably priced.

That's what I ended up doing on previous orders Perpetua - a new search system would improve their site no end though so fingers crossed the new site works well when it arrives.

As for Rainbowvapes - I was a very happy with the service, delivery was quick and I got a freebie as well. Solub Arome Breakfast 2.

Haven't done anything with it yet but I'll get around to it at some point.

One of my favourite flavours charliehorse, 20% with a little extra added strawberry does me very nicely.
