The Flavor Apprentice (TFA) is a leading producer of water-soluble flavourings.
RY4 Double delivers the classic dessert-tobacco: full caramel and vanilla on a smooth, light tobacco base with a subtle roasted/toffee echo—great as a standalone or backbone for dessert tobaccos, RY blends and caramel-forward desserts. Use: Concentrate that must be diluted. TFA flavours are water-soluble and PG-carried; some may contain traces of ethanol. Note: We purchase in bulk and re-bottle into smaller sizes (not the original packaging).

Tips for this flavour
- Dosing start: 3–5% standalone; 0.5–2.5% as an accent. Higher % may come across syrupy-sweet.
- Praline twist: add hazelnut/almond/peanut (0.5–1.5%) for a nutty RY4.
- Creamier dessert: Vanilla Swirl, DX Sweet Cream and Marshmallow 0.25–0.5% to smooth edges.
- Coffee & chocolate: espresso/coffee and Cocoa Rounds for a mocha-RY4.
- Fruits & pies: apple/cinnamon, pear or banana with Graham Cracker/Pie Crust.
- More tobacco bite: blend with Western/DK Tobacco II for a drier, leafier edge.
- Steeping: 7–14 days—caramel/vanilla meld into the tobacco and deepen.
