🐐 Aroma (Raw Sniff)
Warm apples, a touch of cinnamon, and something buttery creeping up behind it — like a pie that’s still cooling on a windowsill, waiting for a goat with poor impulse control to wander by.
Flavor Profile (In Vape)
-
Inhale: Soft cooked apple with a sweet, mellow vibe.
-
Exhale: Hints of cinnamon swirl in, subtle but present, followed by a light, buttery crust note that wraps it up nicely.
-
Aftertaste: Pastry lingers more than the apple — not a bad thing.
-
Sweetness: Moderate. Think diner pie, not bakery bomb.
-
Off-notes: None, but lacks punch if you’re looking for a spiced pie.
-
Mouthfeel: Light and smooth — not dense, but satisfying.
Label Accuracy:
It’s apple pie, no doubt about it. The crust is the standout here — not too greasy, not too dry — just buttery enough to carry the whole thing home. The apple is there, cooked and sweet, but it plays second fiddle to the pastry. Light spice keeps it from being boring, but doesn’t push it into “cinnamon overload” territory.
Accuracy Rating: 9/10
Standalone Usability:
Good enough to vape on its own if you’re in the mood for something mellow and dessert-y, but it really shines when supported. Toss in a stronger apple or more spice if you want it to go full holiday pie.
Standalone Rating: 7.5/10
Mixing Versatility:
A great base for bakery blends. Add a tart apple (like FA Fuji or SSA Double Apple) for some zip, or blend in caramel, vanilla, or custards to bring out the comfort food factor. It’s soft-spoken, which means it layers easily — and it’ll never overpower the herd.
Versatility Rating: 8.5/10
🐐 Overall Goat Score:
8.5/10
This pie’s got manners — sweet, gentle, and just flaky enough to feel homemade. It won’t kick your tastebuds like a wild Alpine goat, but it will warm your heart like grandma’s kitchen. A trusty staple for any dessert mixer’s arsenal.
Where to Buy
