Decoded ‘Big Foot’ 3 mg

VAPE – 4 THROAT HIT – 4 TASTE – 2

So, I vaped and vaped and vaped and hoped that eventually I’d taste something, just something to give me a reason to love this flavor. That never happened. It’s a “mini doughnut” flavor, although I am not sure how a flavor can have a size but that’s beside the point. There is a slight doughnut

aftertaste, but that’s it. It needs a flavor, or a sweetener or something. Doughnut flavors are difficult. They seem super plain as compared to my favorite thing to eat; there’s something missing and I’ve yet to find one that gives me that doughnut satisfaction. This e-liquid is no different. It’s not a bad flavor, it’s just lacking. The vapor production was above average and there was a good, strong throat hit, but without that added something, I couldn’t really rate the flavor any higher. I will say that I like the styling of their bottle. It’s a flat black, which is different than most e-liquids, and I like that sort of thing.

Doc Brown’s Private Stock E-Liquid ‘Blood Elixir’ 3 mg

VAPE – 3 THROAT HIT – 1 TASTE – 1

Not to be crass, but Doc Brown’s “Blood Elixir” is doo-doo. There’s no real flavor at all. I’m still not exactly sure what it was supposed to be. It’s just so blah. No real flavor profile. When I find a flavor that I’m clueless as to what it’s supposed to be, I read the cards that come with the bottles. This one says ‘So delicious, you won’t want to share.’ Well, I certainly won’t share, but not because it was delicious. Sorry Doc Brown. Vapor production was average, but there was no throat hit and the taste was just no.

Evil E-Juice ‘Morning Murder’ 3 mg

VAPE – 3 THROAT HIT – 2 TASTE – 3.5

The name of this e-liquid is a bit scary, not sure murder is what I think about for breakfast … but it was a good e-liquid. It’s a orange creamsicle/fruit loopy flavor. I enjoyed it. There’s a tad more orange than a real fruit loop medley, but I dig it. The vapor production was average and the throat hit was a little lacking. But, I gave the flavor above average rating.

Dilligaf Vapors ‘Burlesque’ 3 ml

VAPE – 3 THROAT HIT – 3 TASTE – 3.5

I never would have thought of putting grapefruit and peach together, but Dilligaf does in this blend. It’s actually pretty good and it’s unique, which is awesome. A lot of flavors taste the same or are similar blends so it’s refreshing to find an e-liquid that is just different. My only complaint, and it’s not a scored section but it’s something to be noted, this was the only flavor that I got this month that did not have some sort of childproof cap. I have kids, so this is super important to me and should be to most vapers. The vapor production was average and the throat hit was there and solid, which I also like.

ADV Vape Gold ‘Watermelon Cucumber Mojito’ 3 mg

VAPE – 3 THROAT HIT – 4 TASTE – 4

I love when a flavor profile says the flavor should be this … and it is! When I first vaped this e-liquid, I knew in an instant it was a mojito. There is no doubt about it at all. The watermelon is understated, but I think that it’s good like that. I think too overbearing and it may have turned into a weird toothpaste flavor. But the blend of the watermelon and the cucumber was pretty awesome. It’s a classy, smooth, clean vape and I really enjoyed it. The throat hit was strong and solid, which is also pretty great and vapor production was average. But, I was really impressed with this e-liquid. And I felt pretty classy vaping it!
