Pinoyelo

I have always been a fan of rindy mango vapes like Ripe Mango by Bamskilicious. Granted it was anything but ripe, but that piney mango note always stuck with me. I am also a huge fan of some of the insanely cold vapes from SE Asia. Having worked at vape shops over the years, I have had a number of SE Asian tourists come through and share there menthol vapes with me and have loved how cold they were. So when I started mixing, I worked on this endlessly, and I finally think it is ready for publication. The name is a mash of "Pinoy," a descriptor for things and people from the Philippines, and "Yelo," which is Filipino for "ice." Hence Pinoyelo.

INW Mango: This is my favorite mango on the market, as it really focuses on the rind of the mango. CAP Sweet Mango: Interestingly, this is my least favorite mango on the market, but it brings a few of the elements of the mango to the surface. I originally wanted to use FLV Mango, especially for the muskiness, but it just takes too much focus off the rind that I am trying to highlight. Lychee: I am using this primarily as a back note to make it more juicier. Both the INW and CAP mangoes can get a bit dry, so I wanted something that complimented the mango, but didn't take away from the focus. For those who hate lychee, most of the lychee-ness gets lost in the translation. Super Sweet: This is more a diving board for the flavor. The CAP Sweet Mango really gives it enough sweetness, but it did all get muddled a bit, and still a bit dry. WS-23: Originally i started with 2%, as I wanted it ungodly cold, but it just got overwhelming after an hour or so. I personally mix mine at 1.5%, but it was too much for most people.

This is my first public recipe. Always open to suggestions.
