See how it flies....

Perpetua and beedee received 100ml of ginnys addict today mixed tester up at 20% it's definitely got the base to it of gins addiction, so tomorrow will start mixing up some more testers I think it needs more absinthe and anise and Gin for my taste. If you would like to try some pm me your addys and will put some in the post to you.

That's very kind of you tcg69, thank you.


I also mixed mine ( it's a while ago now ) at 20% . . . . . thinking back, I do wonder whether it would have been better at a lower percentage. For a more subtle overall flavour.

I don't think I had tried the yummy range before so just went in at 20% I taste a lot of lemon and menthol in it but it's not a bad vape at all.

I've had a few of their flavours and as 20% is my starting point for most things, that's how I arrived at the figure - no science involved!

Glad you're quite liking it, even at this early stage.

I think we should change the name of this post to the gins addiction post.

I'm another who loves gins addiction, which is odd as I don't like gin and loathe absinth and menthol juices, plus lime or blackcurrant are my least liked fruits..... that's probably why i try to be open minded about flavour combo's as it doesnt always match my food likes

I'm with you on this one Pepperty Gins Addiction is a excellent juice we're still trying to make a good clone of it buts it's a complicated mix. But I am like you not into menthols,the one I could never get used to was Red Astaire everyone I know still vapes it on a regular basis but I never liked it.

Black Dog.
I have been mixing this recipe up for the last few months on and off just trying to get it right. The final result I am pleased with, don't make big batches of this as the blood orange starts to fade after a couple of weeks.If you don't want it to chilled reduce the Ws-23 to your taste.

Absinthe FW. 2.5%
Anise. FA. 1%
Black Jack Kandi-Hed 1.5%
Blood Orange FW. 4%
Golden pineapple Caps 2%
Ws-23. 2%
Polar Blast. FA. 1%

Mixed at 30pg/70vg steep time 3 days for the Black Jack to settle.
If you can't get Kandi-hed try FA black jack.

Adding custard to this is really nice I add 3% it works really works well.Or is it me being weird.

Going back to what started this thread I ended up getting the blood orange,  and happened to have several of the ingredients out for this,  so made up a 20ml tester batch today but with just a little coolant (don't like a lot!), will try in a few days.

Hope you like it beedee it's different, been making this for friends over the last month they seem to like it one or two have said it's an acquired taste, so made it for them without the black jack which they prefer.

I tried this in a tank and dripper a few days after I'd made it, nice but the orange give me some 'back of the throat' aftertaste (which often happens with me and orange flavours). However, found it in my juice draw a couple of days ago and gave it another go. That claggy aftertaste had disappeared completely and I vaped the whole 30ml back to back, and it ends up I like it very much - so a big thanks to you tcg69 . 

Am thinking of also trying a blackberry or blackcurrant version, and maybe even just up the pineapple and reduce the orange to make the pineapple predominate - have you tried any other fruits in it?

Glad you like it beedee I have tried strawberry and raspberry but the absinthe kills them, but a mix of inw peach and fa white peach hold up very well.

Peach sounds nice. Looked through my peachy flavours and I have some FA White left (lovely flavour but needs something with it). The only other pure peach is an awful one from Blue Star (cardboard with faint a hint of peach... must chuck it away!).

You are getting as bad as Perpetua at adding stuff to my shopping list!
