The Vape Bean - Juice Reviews

[Hooked]

Before I review The Vape Bean, I would like to mention that I would not have found it without help from our amazing vaping community. I don't know where I heard about The Vape Bean - I'm sure someone on the forum must have suggested or mentioned it, but I can't remember who it was. Please let me know who you are so that I can thank you.

I posted in Who has Stock and @Fuzz replied that Vaperite stocks it. To my disappointment, on their website it said “no products found”. Vaperite then replied, informing me that they do have stock but that it had not been allocated to online sales. Vaperite told me to contact Alex, Online Sales Manager, who could nevertheless arrange for me to purchase it online.

Thank you very, very much to all of you for your help! I will thank Vaperite in their own forum, since vendors are not permitted to reply/comment elsewhere. And now, without further ado ...

The Vape Bean Real Coffee - Latte

VG/PG: 60/40
Nic: 6mg
Mod: Pico with Melo 4

My comment:
WOW! Utterly superb! It’s a light coffee, but with a rich, full, incredibly delicious flavour. I usually vape at 30W but I tried it at 40W and oh my … indescribable!

Would I buy this juice again: I wouldn’t think twice!

Ooh, this sounds interesting @Hooked - never heard of it before
Thanks for the info and your impressions.

Just a headsup, vendors are most welcome to comment in these threads, they just not allowed to promote or discuss their products directly. So if you thank a vendor here, they can most certainly respond and acknowledge - as long as they are not marketing their products or services or responding directly to product related questions.

The Vape Bean Real Coffee - Americano

Flavour Description: This juice represents the rich flavor of coffee beans and espresso.

VG/PG: 60/40
Nic: 6mg
Mod: Pico with Melo 4
Coil: Commercial 0.3 ohm
Watt: 30W

My comment:

If you like Americano in reality, then this would be perfect you. It’s strong, dark and slightly bitter. What I like about The Vape Bean range, is that their juices are my preferred ratio of 60/40 VG/PG.

@Vaperite South Africa Thank you once again for the trouble which you went to, to send this juice to me. I appreciate that very much indeed! I look forward to trying more coffees in The Vape Bean range.

Would I buy this juice again: No – it’s too strong for me.

I made an error when I bought the juice and purchased the Latte. Should've bought the Americano as I found the Latte a bit weak in terms of Coffee flavour ( I like strong coffee with no sugar please )

@picautomaton It's a pity that you're in Jhb, otherwise we could have swopped!

CAPPUCCINO
(California)

Flavour Description
“A hypnotic combination of various coffee beans infused with almond, caramel and cinnamon.”

VG/PG: 70/30
Nic: 6mg

My Comments

The Vape Bean is an excellent range of coffees and, as you can see on the bottle, real coffee is used. I tried Americano and Latte in April 2018, but I couldn’t get the rest of the range in SA. I finally resorted to importing them and I’m so glad that I did.

They’re not shy with their flavours, so if you like a strong coffee this is the range for you. Even Cappuccino, which is usually a mild flavour, gives a remarkable flavour hit! If I could find a real Cappuccino which tastes like this, I’d set up camp at that coffee shop!

From the moment the flavour hits your tongue until well after you’ve exhaled, it has a full-on taste. It’s interesting that almond is one of the flavourants and it’s unexpected in a Cappuccino. I can never identify individual flavours and therefore I can’t taste almond specifically. However, this coffee has a distinct earthy flavour and I can’t help wondering if it’s not from the almond?

Whatever it is, all that I can say is that this is a strong, flavourful coffee which would most certainly satisfy coffee lovers!

Would I buy this juice again: Without a doubt!

Coffee Review #141

THE VAPE BEAN - HAZELNUT
(California)


Flavour Description:

“Naturally extracted hazelnuts combined with almonds and caramel captures the sweet and smooth undertones of this coffee flavor perfectly.”

VG/PG: 70/30
Nic: 6mg

My comments:

I was rather disappointed with this one. I expected coffee, hazelnuts, almonds and caramel to be a delectable combination, but sadly not. It just didn’t say anything; it didn’t have any character.

It’s a mild coffee which was also unexpected from The Vape Bean, slightly sweet and not much of a nutty flavour.


Would I buy this juice again: No

Coffee Review #142

​

THE VAPE BEAN - MOCHA
(California)

Flavour Description:
“Chocolate cake drenched in warm hot coffee drizzled with a rich and sweet caramel syrup.

VG/PG: 70/30
Nic: 6mg


My comments:

Hmmmm this is yummy! The flavour is light and creamy, with a coffee/chocolate taste. The coffee comes through slightly more than the chocolate. Personally, I would prefer a stronger flavour, but since it's a chocolate cake and not a coffee, the flavour matches the description perfectly.

I expected it to be very sweet due to the caramel syrup, but it isn’t.

It took a while to get going though. It was only on the second tank (of 6ml) that the flavour really came into its own.

As much as I enjoyed it, it’s not a wake-‘n-vape. It doesn’t have enough of a coffee-kick for that. For me, it’s more suitable for a mid-afternoon break.

This juice proves that you can have your cake and vape it! Another slice, please?

Would I buy this juice again: I sure would!
