Phillip Rocke Grand Reserve - Crème de la Crème
Information
The PHILLIP ROCKE GRAND RESERVE is an ultra premium, top-shelf e-liquid made in small batches by renowned artisan juice mixologist Phillip Rocke (the master behind ANML and Gemini). It was aged/steeped in re-claimed medium Brandy Barrels for 2 – 2 1/2 months (the barrels were used to absorb and round out some of the high flavor notes). Actual Arabica coffee was extracted in-house for this blend (for its sweet natural essence).
Flavour Description
“an all natural hazelnut cream with splashes of Arabica flavored coffee”
Other websites say “a mild hint of coffee”
VG/PG: 80/20
Nic: 3mg (It is available only in 3mg)
Mod: Pico25
Coil: Commercial 0.22 ohm
Watt: 30W
My comment
This juice has an interesting flavour. It is slightly musty/woody. I wonder if that is because it was steeped in brandy barrels? From the flavour descriptions, I didn’t expect much of a coffee taste but I was mistaken. The coffee is most certainly there – I would describe it as a medium coffee.
Would I buy this juice again Yes
EDIT 17 JUNE 2018:
Vaped on a different set-up:
Mod: iJust 3
Coil: Commercial - Kanthal Net and Multihole HW-M 0.15 ohm
Watt: 80W
The full, rich, complex flavour is coming through now. It's outstanding!!
