this is the date I mixed my first 10ml test batch. I vaped it all on 3/7. The flavor was a nice, delicious creamy hazelnut. I believe the shortbread and PB may have enhanced the flavor of hazelnut. It's a very strong flavor. I was super surprised that it took over the mix so much at 1%. I couldn't taste any peanut butter, but it had to have been doing something. I decided just to mix up 60ml so I wouldnt vape it all while trying to test.

I mixed up 60ml and bumped cookie crumble up .5% to a total of 2%.

Lots of foam forming in this mix. I had that happen with shortbread cookie before.

Still vaping away at this. I plan on putting it down I'm leaving alone at some point, I haven't really gotten flavor fatigued yet. It's just go the delicious taste of a sweet hazelnut filling it's just kind of hard to get away from. It really tastes like the filling inside of a hazelnut chocolate without the chocolate of course. I really want a peanut butter and cookie aspects to develop, and I hope I'll be able to taste them. The hazelnut definitely seems to be the star in here, at least right now.

That hazelnut flavor I was tasting may have actually just been the unsteeped peanut butter. đź‘€

Alright, so I'm soooo freaking impatient waiting for this. Mainly cause I only have 2 other mixes that are vapable, but also because I want to taste the delicious peanut butter goodness. Good news today, 8 days steep and the peanut butter flavor is finally developing. I need to mix another, I'm worried I won't leave this alone because it's becoming tasty. I can't outright discern the cookie flavors, but they're doing something. I think it needs more time. I can't taste the hazelnut at all seems like. Maybe it's just supporting the peanut butter and I don't realize it though.
It was gone 7 days later.
New batch: 04/13/2025 2x 60ml
This is definitely a good one if I've bothered to mix it up 3 times now.
I'm not sure how to describe the flavor, It's not quite real peanut butter, but it's not like fake? It's like peanut butter with something extra, It's sweet and dessert like and creamy. There's a sort of hazelnut cream note. The cookies come in with the butteriness, I can't directly pick out the shortbread but it's adding some nice flavor as well.
I can't call it a cookie, because cookie isn't the main note. I have no idea what even call this but it's delicious.

Went back at tasted again, yummy. It does indeed have a cookie flavor. Reminds me of chocolate chip cookie without the chips. Yay. I'm glad I made 120ml because the first 60ml bottle is almost gone. I can actually taste the butter, it tastes like real butter.
Side note, the first bottle traveled around with me and it was pretty warm outside. It wasn't summer hot, but 60-70 degrees outside. I left it in my car while I shopped, and that one does a taste a bit nicer than the one that was just chilling in my room. I never believed in using heat to steep, but clearly there's something to it and I believe it helps the process along. I might knock down the % of the cookie flavor, it definitely has acytle pirazine. I can detect it every so slightly.
The mix still has some of that bubble foam that sticks to the side of the bottle from the shortbread cookie. I suppose it's still doing a reaction.

Came back to this again, still had 1ml or 2, tasted it and it reminds me of the hazelnut filling inside of box chocolates.
