Mikefu Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 I have never had Indian Summer, but just ordered some and got it thursday. Its been acclimating since (2.5 days) and still smells funky and burnt. the other 3 flavors i got are all aclimated and smoking well. So, does Indian Summer take longer to acclimate in your experience, and if not, does it just smell funky? Ive got it out on wax paper, spread thin, stirring a few times daily, and I live in the Seattle area, if you want specifics. Any help appreciated. Thanks!!

king_lunchb0x Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 what is the flavor even supposed to be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king_lunchb0x Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 from what it sounds like its not acclimated, i know its supposed to be fruity. But it should have acclimated by now, there a trick u can do with the freezer, put it in for 2-4hours open and start acclimation process over again....BUT i dont remember if its exactly 2-4 or if its covered or uncovered....hopefully someoe else will chime in on this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcane Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 there's about 3 people i can confirm who actually know what's in Indian Summer...and one of them is Eric. i've actually sorta stopped trying to guess... but, OP...the flavor shouldn't smell burnt but it does have an odd smell in Noir. make sure you're stirring it up occassionally.

Mikefu Posted August 23, 2010 Author Share Posted August 23, 2010 Thanks for the help so far. It is smelling less burnt, I think its almost gone. It still has an odd kinda chemically smell tho. Ive heard speculation that it has lavender as a flavor component. If so, it could be the lavender giving it the odd smell? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcane Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 the only clues we have are 1. There are 4 total flavor components 2. Lavendar is a confirmed component 3. One of the components has never been released on its own and its only available in one Tangiers Flavor on the market currently 4. There is a grape-like flavor but, see #5 5. No Grape, Kashmir, Rose or Peach That's about all the clues we have... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boludo Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 what arcane said... to me it smells somewhat similar to blue flower, and it acclimated very quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikefu Posted August 23, 2010 Author Share Posted August 23, 2010 So it finally is happily acclimated, and holy cow is it tasty! Thanks for the help/advice/chit chat. Y'all rock! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
