So after a busy Monday, it's time to start the reviews again... There are a total of 5 reviews this week.

Juice Name: Passionate
Manufactured By: VK Prime
Flavour Profile: Passionfruit medley with a mix on cool menthol and sweetener.
Packaging: 60ml Easy Dripper
Nicotine Strength Options: 0, 3, 6, 12 and 18 mg
PG/VG Ratio: 30PG/70VG

My Opinion and Tasting Experience

I was thrilled to receive the entire range from VK Prime to review. This review is done on the 3mg.

The range was launched successfully on 23 April 2018. They are have completed their rebranding. I now know exactly what they were up to and I can’t wait to share it with you all next week.

The label is very notable showing all relevant information, the PG/VG ratio, the nicotine strength, the price, etc. There is a picture of a juicy granadilla on. You can also see the name of the brand and juice very clearly.

With the finger tasting test I get the sweet cool taste of the passionfruit. Really like nothing I have tasted before, not oversweet and has a good balance between the actual flavours and the sweetener.

Upon inhale you get a semi-sweet passion fruit flavour coming through with minimal menthol, the menthol is not overpowering at all.

With exhaling, you get the taste of passion fruit with a dazzle of cool menthol and blended nicely with the sweetener. It’s still not oversweet with the added sweetener and it leaves a good aftertaste on your palate.

I find that the flavour is released best on the RDA, and it has a great vapor production and is a semi-ADV for me personally. I have to say, I thought with the sweetener it would turn the RDA's coil a bit more black but it’s not the case and I am really impressed with that.

Would I buy a bottle again? I am not sure.

What time is it?

Juice Name: Wolfsbane
Manufactured By: Emissary Elixirs
Flavour Profile: Vanilla bean ice-cream, dark berries and oat grain cereal.
Packaging: 60ml and 120ml Easy Dripper
Nicotine Strength Options: 0, 3 and 6 mg
PG/VG Ratio: 30PG/70VG

This juice was sent to me from Emissary Elixirs for review purposes.

My Opinion and Tasting Experience

Absolutely love the label design. It is clear and eye catchy with this big bad wolf. You can see exactly what the flavour is, who the manufacturer is and all other relevant information.

The classic line range flavour names are inspired by folklore and fairy tales.

With the finger tasting test you get the strong taste of vanilla ice-cream with a hint of berries followed by a yummy cereal taste. Surprisingly the vanilla does not overpower the other flavours.

Upon inhale I get a crunchy cereal taste blended with the sweet and creamy vanilla bean ice-cream no traces of the berry puree on the inhale.

With exhale you get the tangy berry flavour, blended nicely with the cereal flavour and the vanilla ice-cream. It leaves a great aftertaste on your palate.

If I could, I would add a bit of a cooling additive to give it that cold feeling.

But, in the same breath who else is like seriously in the mood to mix up the flavours into a bowl with vanilla ice-cream, bit of berries and some cereal. I really believe this could be one delicious dessert especially in this heat.

With this complex mix of flavours, I have to say that I am very impressed with how good they are blended together. I do prefer this one in the tank.

Would I buy a bottle again? I think so.

Sounds like a pretty good breakfast in reality!
 
It's that time again.

Juice Name: Klap Cake
Manufactured By: Hats Vape Klub
Flavour Profile: Freshly Baked Vanilla Cupcake
Packaging: 60ml easy dripper bottle
Nicotine Strength Options: 1 and 3 mg
PG/VG Ratio: 20PG / 80VG

This juice was sent to me through OTP Distributers from Hats Vape Club for review purposes.

My Opinion and Tasting Experience

Because it only launched a short while back, it took me some time to get all the necessary information to share with you. I got my first glimpse at Klap Cake this year Vapecon where is was officially launched and I personally think a lot more credit is due to Hats Vape Club for this outstanding juice.

The packaging has a gold label, with all the necessary information. It also has a clipart picture of a man vaping and a badge that says "Pocket Buddy". It sure does grab your attention.

With the finger tasting I get one of the flavours I adore the most, vanilla essence. Not too overpowering and not over sweet, and no bad taste is left in your mouth.

With inhaling sweetness galore, the good sweet not the bad one. Delicious balance between the vanilla, the creaminess and the cake flavour.

I am not a dessert flavour lover, you will very seldom see me eating anything sweet but this one actually knocks it out of the park.

With exhale, the vanilla flavour gracefully leaves your palate and the aftertaste of physically eating a cupcake greets you. It's like when you take a last drag, but your head keeps telling you "Just take one more, you know you want to".

This juice goes down well with a cup of coffee or tea, which ever you would prefer. If you have not tried this one yet, you seriously must get your hands on it.

It inspired me so much that I am really considering baking a few cupcakes this weekend.

Will I buy a bottle again? Absolutely.

Thanks for this review @Chanelr
Nice to see a HATS VapeClub juice coming up!
Tagging @Joao from OTPD - check this out
 
Today's review is a bit late as it was scheduled for yesterday but time was not on my side and the review is also completely different than the usual.

This box was sent to me from Rivas at BWDV (Build It – Wick It – Drip It – Vape It) for review purposes. The box was officially launched on the 1st of January 2018.

THE BOX ITSELF

The boxes are handmade, and the ‘menu’ is handwritten to give it that personal touch, which is not something you see or get every day.

“I want people to try liquids and get out of their comfort zones and experience the e-liquid world. I see the box as a promotional package.” ~ Rivas

BWDV also entered the retail space with their first shop box which is available for R 280.00 at Capital Vapes Centurion.

MY EXPERIENCE

On the website you have the ‘Build-A-Box’ option, as well as the two ‘Company Boxes’. Then if you are feeling in the mood to surprise yourself, you can purchase the ‘Mystery Box’.

www.bwdv.co.za
· Simple ordering process
· Reasonable flavour selection
· Can choose your nicotine preference
· 5 Select options to choose from
· Cost of box with shipping R 220.00 – R 230.00

You receive no less than 50ml juice coming from all over South Africa. The box also includes some wire, cotton and a surprise.

This is not a subscription box, so you can choose what you want from the selection, when you want it without the monthly commitments. Some months can truly get rough financially.

For me it is a great concept and it helps if you are on a tight vaping budget. Because instead of buying one 60ml flavour, you can get a variety of flavours for approximately the same price.

MY SELECTIONS

From the list of options I decided to choose the following:

· Nicotine Strength : 3mg (Other option was 0mg)
· Lush Liquids : Dunkin Flurry (10ml)
· Ooey Gooey : Cola Ice (10ml)
· A4S : Fire and Ice (10ml)
· Baardsous : Cluster F***** (10ml)
· Wiener Vape Co : Cherry Bomb (60ml)

Total ml’s = 100ml

EXTRA’S

· Handwritten ‘menu’ with your 5 juice selections including the maker, name, flavour profile, category and VG/PG ration.
· On the side of the menu your freebies are shown

IN MY BOX

· Juggernaut Wire 55316L (28GA + 386A)
· 2 x Ribbon (386A + 246A)
· Demon Killer Muscle Cotton
· A few stickers

20181008_172605.jpg

WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO SEE

· A bit more wire
· A little bit more cotton
· More variety on flavours
· More company boxes

Overall, I think it is a fantastic initiative and I will certainly be buying more boxes for birthdays and Christmas.

I would really recommend that you give this a go.

NOTES ON RATINGS:

1) I think the website is very user friendly, it is also responsive which makes it excellent to use on your phone.

2) My parcel was shipped on the 5th of October and I received it on the 8th of October (With the weekend, it fell into the promised delivery bracket).

3) It really is a neat little box, but I would personally make it a bit more durable. The box was also bubble wrapped for safe transportation.

4) I received what I ordered, was just a bit sad that I was asked to substitute the one juice due to low stock levels.

5) I believe for R 185.00 you really get value for your money.

6) I love the handwritten ‘menu’ and the additional extras you receive.

Juice Name: Femme Fatale
Manufactured By: Vapour Mountain
Flavour Profile: A seductively smooth cocktail of ripe melons and sweet strawberries.
Packaging: 60ml Easy Dripper
Nicotine Strength Options: 0, 3 and 6 mg
PG/VG Ratio: 30PG/70VG

This juice was sent to me from Vapour Mountain (@Oupa) for review purposes.

Vapour Mountain decided to do an un-hyped soft release on this juice and it was well received at VapeCon. Now, I am going to make a semi-big hype about it.

My Opinion and Tasting Experience

Courtesy of Wikipedia :
“A femme fatale (/ˌfæm fəˈtɑːl/ or /ˌfɛm fəˈtɑːl/; French: [fam fatal]), sometimes called a maneater, is a stock character of a mysterious and seductive woman whose charms ensnare her lovers, often leading them into compromising, dangerous, and deadly situations. She is an archetype of literature and art. Her ability to enchant and hypnotise her victim with a spell was in the earliest stories seen as being literally supernatural; hence, the femme fatale today is still often described as having a power akin to an enchantress, seductress, vampire, witch, or demon, having power over men.”

The label stands out very boldly, and by now I think everyone is familiar with it. You can see exactly what it is, who made it and what the flavour profile is.

With the finger tasting test I get a smooth iced strawberry flavour, followed by a bit of the melon. I did this test 4 times just to be sure that my taste buds are not trying to trick me.

Upon inhale, you are greeted with a chilled ice effect followed by the sweet strawberries. I really can’t find the ripe melon on inhale.

With exhaling on the other hand, the ripe melon flows off your palate effortlessly followed by the sweet strawberries and topping it off nicely with the iciness.

I prefer this on the RDA for maximum flavour release, and I am not just saying this I really can’t get enough of this flavour but I can’t vape it the whole day.

I think this is another great product released by Vapour Mountain and it will surely seduce you.

I’m getting the blender out again to mix these flavours up.

Would I buy a bottle again? Almost certain.

So, I have been biting on my tongue to keep this review quiet and it is now time to share it with your guys.

You probably noticed that I mentioned in the 4 x VK Prime reviews that they are up to something and now I can finally show you.

They have redesigned their labels and they will be hitting the shelves soon.

Stunning new labels, same great flavour, same affordable price.

IMG_20181016_161654_596.jpg
What do you guys think?

In the middle you will see one flavour that was not there before, and it was officially announced as the juice that landed the 2nd place in the juice competition at VapeCon.

Juice Name: Fizzapple
Manufactured By: VK Prime
Flavour Profile: Fizzy Apple Pop
Packaging: 60ml Easy Dripper
Nicotine Strength Options: 0, 3,6,12 and 18mg
PG/VG Ratio: 30PG/70VG

I received the entire rebranded range from VK Prime and because I have already reviewed 4 of the flavours I will only be focusing on Fizzapple.

My Opinion and Tasting Experience

The label is very professional with the logo and the name as well as the flavour profile. All the information is visible, and it is proudly showing off the 2nd place badge.

With the finger tasting test I get the yummy apple taste that is really refreshing. The flavour for me is something between Appletiser and apple candy.

Upon inhaling you will find the apple to be very consistent and but not too much apple and it is mixed with a fizziness. It still reminds me a lot of Appletiser.

With exhaling the flavour is blended well with the fizz and it still has the same consistency. I have to say it is nice to vape an apple flavoured juice that doesn’t leave your mouth dry.

This juice is good in both the sub-ohm as well as the RDA and I really can’t decide in which one I like it best.

Would I buy a bottle again? Yes, but this time two. One for me and one for hubs.

I would like to congratulate VK Prime from The Vaping Chanel’s side on taking the 2nd place award. Well deserved.

Thanks for the reviews @Chanelr !

Now I need to try the Femme Fatale from VM as well as the Fizzy Apple from VK Prime.

They both sound great
 
Juice Name: Greek Fruit
Manufactured By: Blends of Distinction
Flavour Profile: Fusion of sweet figs and tropical fruits
Packaging: 30, 60 and 100ml Easy Dripper
Nicotine Strength Options: 0, 3 and 6 mg
PG/VG Ratio: 30PG/70VG

This juice was sent to me from @Blends Of Distinction for review purposes.

My Opinion and Tasting Experience

This juice falls under the Ice Pop range launched and was launched at VapeCon.

The label is plain and simple, Ice Pop stands out a lot with a picture of figs, the juice name and all the necessary information is also visible. What I like is the label colour matches to the flavour profile.

Fig flavours is not something you come across and need to confess I was very sceptical about this one.

The actual fruit itself doesn’t really have a very strong taste, but it is sweet honey-like syrup. Other popular fruits in Greece are apricots, peaches, nectarines and cherries.

Interesting fact, figs along with grape season in Greece is only from late August to early September.

With the finger tasting one the first go I got a very nice peachy flavour followed by a light fig taste mixed with a dash of iciness.

Upon inhale, you get a mild berry and peachy taste with the unique fig taste. It is not oversweet, and this tricky flavour is blended nicely with the rest of the flavours with a coolness effect.

With exhaling you will find the chilled semi-sweet taste leaving your palate and the mixture of the other fruits saying "avtio" . This one did leave my throat a bit dry but nothing that I glass of water can't fix.

The flavour is good on the sub-ohm and the RDA but this one I prefer in the tank less refilling and more vaping.

Go ahead call the Greek god or goddess in you.

Would I buy a bottle again? Thinking about it.
