Inspired by all of the hard work from @ADV_search

After trying Gambit from 5 Pawns and the clone work in a side by side test, I really didn't care for either one. So back to the mixing table I went. Even though this is Not a clone of Gambit, it is pretty tasty.

Dambit

FA apple or fuji 2%
FA apple pie 4%
FA fresh cream 2%
FA custard 1%
FA caramel 1.5%
TFA Brown sugar extra 1%
FA vanilla classic 1%
FA vienna cream 3%
Cap Butter 2% (yes it has the bad stuff in it)

I'm sure you could run it without the butter. For me the addition of the butter smoothes out the apple a bit more. The butter is not something you can taste in this mix.

Think I have all those ingredients except for the butter/coconut and the tfa brown sugar.

I have a brown sugar eliquid though, I wonder if I could just use a higher percentage of that to eliminate the need for the brown sugar flavoring.
Also wonder if FA Marshmallow could be a substitute. Would sweeten it, but wouldn't provide the brown sugar taste.

Make two bottles. One with the brown sugar you have and one with Marshmallow. Pretty sure it will create two different flavors. Let us know how it goes. I'm Always open to suggestions or improvements!

I'll have to give it a try tomorrow if I remember. My truck will be in the shop so I'll be stuck at home. Had planned to spend a good amount of time mixing with all the new flavors I've bought recently.

No vanilla classic, but i have vanilla burbon and tahiti. Which one would be closest to classic. I have never tried classic.

I think you could sub either using the recommended percentage ... the Bourbon is a more in your face type vanilla while the Tahiti is lighter touch, to me at least. :)

ETA: I guess I didn't really answer your question though did I? If I had to pick one that was closer to Classic, I'd probably go with Tahiti but overall, I'd say Classic kinda fits in between the two.

if classic is between tahiti and bourbon, you could try mixing the two.
instead of 1% classic, use 0.5% tahiti and 0.5% bourbon.

I like the vanilla bourbon. So if I had to pick between the two, I would most likely do the bourbon on the first bottle.

I've been wanting to try a Gambit clone, but they all looked too heavy on the crust for my taste. This looked much better. Very good recipe. Didn't have Butter, and when I saw the suggestion for FA Coconut, I decided to use 2% INW Cocopilada since it's a creamy coconut with a buttery taste. Set it in hot rice and let it cool, then left the cap off overnight. The next day it was yummy, but I wanted more apple and a little more sweet. I upped the Fuji to 3%, added .25% FA peach, and .5% pre-steeped Game Over Custard and it's perfect for my taste. Can't wait to see how this ages. Thanks, Zeeli.
