So lets start off with reviewing the juice!

Smell:
The smell i get reminds me of opening a pack of skittles, that candyish sweet and sourish smell. I cant pin point it directly to blue raspberries as this definitely has a candy aspect to it but it smells really good!

Drop Taste:
Sweet on the fore front but then the ice kicks in and it turns slightly less sweet almost bitter but has a nice berry flavor to it that almost has hints of slight watermelon or melon.

Shake 'N Vape Notes:
Mixed this baby up as i was quite exited when i smelled the concentrate first and filled my ZEUS subohm tank. Off the bat i will give this the SNV Approval stamp as its definitely vapable without any funny tastes. The taste reminds me a lot of FA Mixed berries but also not 100%. The profile isnt overly sweet and gives just a nice hint of ice.

Approved-Stamp.png


3 Day Steep Notes
Altough i give this the SNV approval stamp, after 3 days the profile definitely improves a bit. The slight bitter after taste eases out and the profile becomes a little sweeter with the ice staying the same.

1 Week Steep Notes
The profile does not change much at all after 3 days and the flavors are still great without fading away.

Taste and flavor notes
The flavors from this profile reminds me of the jelly candy type sweets and would imagine them being the blue ones that has this hard to describe but berry like flavor, its almost like you can taste the color blue...weird i know but its obviously my mind saying i have had a candy that was blue with this exact flavor and i think its the jelly rings! The profile is nice and sweet but not overly sweet. On inhale you almost get this sourish sweet taste with the blue raspberry or mixed berry taste followed by the ice that cools your throat down but not to a point that you get brain freeze.

Subohm Flavor:

With all the new subohm mesh tanks, i find that they really do give excellent flavor and would say that this juice really works well in the subohm and even sweetens the juice more and helps highlight those flavors here.

RTA:

The profile is very similar to the subohm tank but not as intense on the sweet side and a little less in your face but still very good.

RDA:

Here the flavor is banging, like with the subohm tank the flavor is excellent and you get all the different aspects of the raspberry with the icyness of the juice on the end

Overall feedback and quality:
Great profile, great juice and perfect for summer that has landed on our doorstep now! I can see this being a great ADV for most fruity or candy lovers especially with the ice. This juice wont be the same without the ice.

Would i buy this One Shot again?

Yes i would, I would also recommend it to fruity lovers

Marina - Caramel Frapp One Shot

concentre-diy-caramel-frapp-marina-vape-30ml_1024x1024@2x.jpg


Flavor & Juice description:

A smooth coffee with caramel.


Additional Information:
  • Best mixed at 15% to 20% with 70vg/30pg (I mixed this at 20% as per bottle)
  • Steeping Time: 15 days for full flavor
  • Bottle: 30ml Bottle
  • Made by : Marina
  • Cost – R199 @ BLCK Vapour
  • Makeable Amount – 150ml from 20% as recommended from 30ml
  • Nicotine used - Mr Hardwicks 100mg Spyder Nic
  • Method of mixing - Electronic Scale
Testing Equipment Used:
  • Mod: Vaporesso GEN & Geekvape Aegis X
  • RTA: Aqua Master RTA Dual
  • RDA: Wasp Nano Single
  • Subohm : Geekvape Cerberus
  • Power: Between 60W and 75W
So lets start off with reviewing the juice!

Smell:
The smell is a very familiar caramel almost cappuccino smell which you get from those little round brown hard candy sweets "Kopiko"

Drop Taste:
You get a nice coffee taste with the sweet caramel at the end of with a slight creaminess to it. As mentioned, it tastes like the brown oval coffee/cappuccino sweets.

Shake 'N Vape Notes:
The profile you get when immediately vaping the juice is definitely a coffee with slight cappuccino notes with the caramel not really noticeable much. You do get a slight bitterness almost like drinking coffee with only 1 sugar instead of 3 and the flavors aren't totally muted but not fully developed and blended yet which is to be expected from a coffee with creams ect.

3 Day Steep Notes
The coffee notes are starting to shine a little bit better and the cappuccino/caramel notes are also becoming sweeter but the profile is still a little muted and underdeveloped and will require more steeping. At this stage it is vapeable but not at the best yet.

1 Week Steep Notes
The flavors are starting to pull together here. The juice is now much more coffee with caramel with a nice thick cream ontop. Its creamy, sweet and the coffee is sweet with the caramel notes.

Taste and flavor notes
After around 10 days of steeping, the profile im getting is basically the hard brown coffee candy you get similar to the below sweets. The coffee is really good and im not the biggest coffee vaper but here the caramel and the cream together makes this one hell of a coffee vape. I tested the profile while vaping my cup of coffee and i almost could not tell the difference except that the juice is sweet with the after taste of caramel.

I think if this had some Ice to it, it would make the perfect Coffee shake!

Subohm Flavor:

I have mostly been testing the juice in the Geekvape Zeus subohm and the new Geekvape Cerberus tank and the flavor is really sweet, authentic and provides a great flavor at 65W. The juice might be a little too sweet on the subohm tanks and if you like your coffee without sugar, this might be a little too sweet.

RTA:

The profile in my Dual Aqua master using some fancy Boom coils works well and provides me with the same rounded flavor as i get from the subohm tanks using their mesh coils but on my RTA the Caramel is a little less pronounced and the juice isnt as sweet as with the subohm tanks. I say the juice works best in RTA.

RDA:

Flavor is good, very sweet and gives similar notes as the subohm tanks.

Overall feedback and quality:
Although this is an expensive one shot, i think its well worth it. Not being a big coffee profile lover, this is once of those that i will continue to vape as its a really good well rounded profile with a very realistic coffee flavor and with the creamyness and caramel providing that little bit extra oomph that i think helped alot. @Hooked i can recommend that you try this juice even if you buy the normal juice and would love to get your feedback as i really enjoy this alot. To me this is very similar to Escobar's Beans but about 10 levels higher and more complex.

Would i buy this One Shot again?

No, but maybe...lol Im not a coffee lover so might only get this for that first tank in the mornings but won't buy it as an ADV for me personally.

Medusa Classic Blue Osiris One Shot

concentre-blue-osiris-30-ml-medusa-juice.jpg
Flavor & Juice description:

Taste the softness of the Tropical Summer all year round with this balanced mixture of Mango and Blackcurrant.

Additional Information:
  • Best mixed at 15% to 20% with 70vg/30pg (I mixed this at 20% as per bottle)
  • Steeping Time: 1 - 3 Days
  • Bottle: 30ml Bottle
  • Made by : Medusa
  • Cost – R220 @ BLCK Vapour
  • Makeable Amount – 150ml from 20% as recommended from 30ml
  • Nicotine used - Mr Hardwicks 100mg Spyder Nic
  • Method of mixing - Electronic Scale
Testing Equipment Used:
  • Mod: Geekvape Aegis Squonk & Geekvape Aegis X
  • RTA: Aqua Master RTA Dual
  • RDA: Geekvape Tengu RDA (Squonk)
  • Subohm : Geekvape Cerberus
  • Power: Between 60W and 75W
So lets start off with reviewing the juice!

Smell:
In your face mango that reminds me alot of the Nasty Juice Cushman like mango

Drop Taste:
Sweet icy mango with not much black current notes, Very similar to cushman mango or my Mangtrio mango recipe i usually mix without the banana.

Shake 'N Vape Notes:
This is a SNV approved juice as the recommended steep time is 3 to 7 hours only. SNV notes i get is a sweet ripe yellow mango with not much blackcurrant notes yet. The ice isnt overwhelming and just gives the profile a good iceyness which i prefer.

3 Day Steep Notes
After steeping, not much has changed. The profile is a very much the same with slightly more blackcurrent notes visible now. The juice doesnt seem as flat anymore and definitely better than at the SNV but not much.

Taste and flavor notes
This is a very simple but very delicious mango profile. As mentioned this is very similar to cushman but it lacks the stringiness that cushman has from the mango. The juice is sweet but not overly sweet and has a good amount of ice without giving you throat freeze! I can almost confidentially say that they use Flavour Express Mango here as i use this concentrate alot and mix 100's of Mls as Mango is my ADV and this is spot on. I mixed my own Mango FE with Blackcurrant this week and also note that i do not get much blackcurrant as the mango slightly overpowers it.

Subohm, RTA and RDA flavors:

Being a very simple fruit profile, the flavor across the board is pretty much the same but will say that i personally prefer this in the RDA as its slightly sweeter and the flavors are more prominent.

Overall feedback and quality:
I am a really big Mango everything fan, and really enjoy this juice. I made 60ml and for testing and finished it in 3 days, to that will tell you all you need to know!

Would i buy this One Shot again?

Doubt ill buy it at the price, it will be cheaper to make without a onehot which is probably not the point of this thread but why spend R220 if you can make something very similar or possibly better for less using 4 concentrates.

Tingle & Spark SHOT (MB)

large_tingle-spark_1024x1024@2x.jpg


Flavor & Juice description:
A sparkling & tingling apricot orangeade

Additional Information:
  • Best mixed at 8% with 70vg/30pg (I mixed this at 10% as per bottle)
  • Steeping Time: 1 - 3 Days
  • Bottle: 30ml Bottle
  • Made by : Molinberry
  • Cost – R195 @ BLCK Vapour
  • Makeable Amount – 370ml from 8% as recommended from 30ml
  • Nicotine used - Scrawny Gecko 36mg - 2mg
  • Method of mixing - Electronic Scale
Testing Equipment Used:
  • Mod: Geekvape Aegis X
  • RTA: Aqua Master RTA Dual
  • Power: 70W
So lets start off with reviewing the juice!

Smell:
The exact same smell as opening a sealed bottle of liptons apricot and peach iced tea! Smells sweet and almost like those peach or apricot candy.

Drop Taste:
Its a sweet peachy taste with almost slight hints of pear in the background.

Shake 'N Vape Notes:
On inhale you recognize the profile immediately to that of the lipton iced tea peach. As with the beverage, the profile is soft and subtle and not in your face and not overly sweet.

3 Day Steep Notes
A bit of steeping and the flavors have bloomed and are a little bit stronger with no muting i would say. The profile is nicely rounded with no off tastes on inhale or exhale and the sweetness is just right.

Taste and flavor notes
The profile is dead on lipton Iced tea peach and apricot flavor but without ice. Everyone loves it and its a great tasting profile. There is nothing over complicated with this profile, its simple and but good. Although this does not have any peach in it, or so i think....it is spot on and im sure im getting some peaches!

peach_iced_tea.PNG.750x750_q85ss0_progressive.png



Overall feedback and quality:
Its a great ADV for sure especially for summer time, could possibly have been a little sweeter. The biggest thing that is lacking here is the ice. I feel that with some ice, this would be an awesome well rounded iced tea...but thats probably not what they were going for in this profile. Lastly at 8% you are able to make 370mls of this juice for only R195...so thats also a great deal!

Rating out of 10 points :
6.5 Score
Will i recommend it: Yes i would
Would i buy it again: Im not sure, maybe but i will add some ice to it!

Air Factory (Frost) - Melon Lush Ice One Shot

air-factory-melon-lush-ice_1_1024x1024@2x.jpg


Flavor & Juice description:
A light menthol mixed with the sweet taste of melons

Additional Information:
  • Best mixed at 20% with 70vg/30pg
  • Steeping Time: 1 - 3 Days
  • Bottle: 30ml Bottle
  • Made by : Air Factory
  • Cost – R189 @ BLCK Vapour
  • Makeable Amount – 150ml from 20% as recommended from 30ml
  • Nicotine used - Scrawny Gecko 36mg - 2mg
  • Method of mixing - Electronic Scale
Testing Equipment Used:
  • Mod: Geekvape Aegis X
  • RTA: Aqua Master RTA Dual
  • RDA : Geekvape Tengu
  • Subohm: Geekvape Cerberus
  • Power: 70W
So lets start off with reviewing the juice!

Smell:
The profile smells sweet with slight watermelon but not full on and seems like there might be other melons in here. I do also get a very similar smell of INW cactus.

Drop Taste:
Weirdly enough i almost get the same taste as a pinkish bubblegum with a slight bitter after taste and cooling which is nice and strong. Its a weird one and difficult to pin point but its definitely not 100% watermelon

Shake 'N Vape Notes:
The juice is vapeable straight after a good shake, Its fruity with a very similar taste that reminds me if the recipe Fuji 1.0 which is weird cause that is apple and cactus and no where near melons but its very similar (And i didnt like that recipe as well, although my wife loves Fuji 1.0). Its not overly sweet and the cooling on inhale does work great with this fruity profile

3 Day Steep Notes
Steeping did not really change the profile of this juice and its pretty much the same so not much to comment.

Taste and flavor notes
As mentioned, this is a nice fruity but cannot pin point the flavor kinda juice. Because i have had the Fuji 1.0 juice before and for some reason it is like i can taste the cactus in this juice which is probably why. If there is any cactus in this profile, Im not sure but im getting it! The flavors work nicely together but its a weird profile for me and i have had watermelon juice that is better or more watermelon. This is more of a honey melon type juice to me and the watermelon isnt a fresh realistic flavor here.

While testing the juice i dripped some on the RDA and it the flavor was more pronounced than in my RTA but you still get the same weird melon type flavor. I tested it in my subohm and it was a little bit better to taste but still not my favorite.

Overall feedback and quality:
Its vapable yes, but im not a huge fan of it. The quality isnt bad but its a weird profile and not everyone will like it. It works great in this heat we are experiencing currently but thats only because of the cooling. If it wasnt for the cooling added to this profile, i would have considered rating this probably 2 out of 10 for me personally.

Recommended RDA/RTA/Subohm: This flavor will be best with a mesh subohm tank.

Rating out of 10 points :
4/10 Points
Will i recommend it: doubt it...
Would i buy it again: Nope

This is great @StompieZA
Thanks for all your efforts on the one shots - it adds a lot of value
 
This is awesome, cant wait for the Mix Berry Shot. Im so confused at how much to make. Say i want to make 30ml only with NIC strenth at 3mg. How much VG/PG and nic do you add and what percentage on the Mix Berry Shot. IDK....

It says on the bottle it will make 120ml

So the percentage will always stay the same no matter how many mills you want to make.

Use a eliquid calculator, put in the nic strength eg 36mg and then your required strength 3mg (but go 2.5mg trust me) then you add one flavor which will be the one shot at the percentage which is stated on the bottle and the calculator will do the rest.
 
Busy vaping the Mango Freeze and its a goodie, Review will be up tomorrow!

Then some more Exciting news to come!!! :zpong:
