Vapour Mountain - Juice Reviews

@BibbyBubbly I'm with @Rob Fisher on this one, if you don't like mint/menthol then rather go for their Litchi one, it is insanely accurate but I just found it a bit sweet. The first thing I experienced with XXX was disappointment because of the menthol, great flavour though if you can get past the coolness.
 
Hint: Order XXX and just ask for no menthol added in the comments field when checking out ;-)
 
Hi @BibbyBubbly - please note that this is the reviews thread and is part of the general forum - as such, vendors are not allowed to discuss their products directly here.

Please rather PM @Oupa - or make use of the dedicated Vapour Mountain sub-forum
 
I think Menthol juices are like Tobasco sauce, for some people it's a great flavour enhancer and adds a slight burn, you also build a tolerance I reckon. To others it's like taking a shot of lava.
 
Has anyone tried the Vapourmountain Smurfette or Bannas an cream
 
Hi @E.T.
I have not tried the Smurfette but i have tried Banana Cream and liked it.
I did a review of Banana Cream ages ago:

Thanx Silver

I have a bottle of Smurfette, it is very nice, but quite sweet, it tastes a bit like cotton candy, but i can not really figure it out.

I also have a bottle of Smurfette, it tastes like cotton candy to me as well with a little bit of a throat hit (I use this when I have a few drinks)
Banana cream I ordered as 100% VG - it was great, awesome clouds :p, it reminds me of banana flavor steri stumpi
I NEED MORE XXX in my life tho :(
 
Hi all

This is another long overdue review of a special Vapour Mountain juice. This time it is XXX. Just for those who don't know, Vapour Mountain is one of the longer standing juice manufacturers in SA. It is run by @Oupa and he has been with us on the forum pretty much since the inception of ECIGSSA.

This juice won the best juice shootout at VapeCon 2015 nearly 6 months ago. Can't believe it took me so long. I ordered a bottle about two months ago and it sat in the cupboard for about a month. I got the 18mg strength. The juice is approximately 50/50 PG/VG. 30ml cost me R120. I've been vaping it for about the past three weeks. Bottle is almost empty.

Vapour Mountain - XXX (18mg)

Bottom line - imagine sitting on a beach with a cool breeze blowing and you are eating a delicious chilled fruit salad with fresh Litchis cut up all over. That's VM XXX - and I found it fabulous. I like this juice for its refreshing Litchi taste, gentle flavouring, good balance and coolness. It's a winner in my book. I will definitely be re-ordering.

It has a light orange colour and has a pleasant fruity smell.

I get a wonderful refreshing Litchi in a fruity background. It's like a fruit salad with Litchi as the main feature. The Litchi is a fresh tasting one and has a very slight sourness to it, which I like. The whole vape is refreshingly cool. It's no icy blast, just a gentle cool breeze. Occasionally I pick up traces of pineapple. This is a light, summery and fruity vape yet very interesting. Interesting because it keeps me coming back for more to try taste what else is in there.

The flavours are gentle - certainly not in your face - but it doesn't leave me feeling like I want more flavour. It's just right. It's a complex flavoured juice and I found the flavours very well balanced with nothing being overpowering.

I would say it's on the sweeter side of neutral but its not overly sweet. It also has that slight sourness which balances it. It's medium on the dry/wet scale. XXX is definitely a cool vape and I find it quite refreshing. Nowhere near as icy as Tropical Ice or Menthol Ice for example, but refreshing nonetheless. I am pleased to report that it is natural tasting. No synthetic or artificial tastes. It was well steeped (just over a month).

Throat hit was very good for me. I was vaping the 18mg strength and it was on par with other VM 18mg juices. Vapour production was also good. I would even say a bit better than other VM fruity juices. Perhaps @Oupa made the VG content slightly higher in this one.

I loved the smooth texture of this juice. I find it a bit smoother than other VM fruity juices. Soft and soothing, which I think works well with the refreshing kiwi flavour. I would say this is more of a mellow type of vape. Definitely vapable all day!

The aftertaste is great. You get this pleasant coolish Litchi lingering in your mouth for a few minutes, which reminds you to take another toot.

I have no negatives on this juice. Overall it's a winner for me.

If you like your fruity vapes and you like Litchi, you should definitely give this one a try.

I found the juice vaped well in my equipment. I vaped it on two Reos, one in mouth to lung mode with the RM2 (at 0.95 ohms) and the other in lung hit mode on the Nuppin (0.45 ohm dual).
  • I far preferred it on the RM2 as a mouth to lung vape.
  • On the lung hit (Nuppin) I found the flavours got a bit lost and I couldn't taste that fresh Litchi nearly as well. It was also a bit too harsh - not just the nic - but something else that was a bit harsh.
  • I preferred this juice on Rayon wick - was a bit crisper for me. Reinforcing my preference for Rayon when it comes to the fruitier and cooler vapes.

Packaging:
- Good packaging overall
- "Standard Vapour Mountain" easy to use plastic squeezable bottle
- The labelling is adequate. The flavour name is a bit small and sometimes its not easy to tell the difference between several VM bottles standing next to each other. There is no mention of the PG/VG ratio on the bottle.
- The cap is not of the "child deterrent" variety

Equipment used:
- REO Grand/RM2 - single 0.95 ohm coil - Rayon wick - (14 to 18 Watts, depending on battery level)
- REO Grand/Nuppin1 - dual 0.45 ohm coil - Rayon wicks - (32 to 39 Watts, depending on battery level)
 
I hear all of the stories about Litchi in the XXX. Sadly I do not pick it up at all. Next time I may order the XXX along with the plain litchi to test side by side.

To me XXX comes across as Wilsons Kool Cherrols boiled sweets. That is all I can taste. Maybe the subtank is not the best place for it, I finished the 30ml bottle before trying to drip it.
 
Picking up my 1st Vapour Mountain bottle of juice tonight Vanilla Custard. Cant wait to try some of the others next time.

You don't taste the Litchi in a Sub Tank??? :eek: Something is not right... the Litchi jumps out the bottle and smashes you in the face!

I find I have a blind spot for some flavours - in my case mostly the cake, biscuit, bread, etc., type of flavours. Just cannot vape them - not that I give up trying!

Wow that's interesting... a boggler but interesting... Let us know how you go with plain litchi!

My first was a 100ml caramel vanilla :D still blassting through that ssexy juice. Creates delicious clouds. Very good juice to mix with other things.
I'd love to also try that vanilla custard to compare with complex chaos -> crusty custard :D also a great mixing flavour

  • Just what I needed to hear: I've decided oon my favourites for the following month from vapour mountain: Vanilla Custard and XXX -> although I don't dare want to touch 18g nicotine :O Twisp is in the past:p For a reason. hahaha but I have also wanted to try the litchi flavour _.)__ because I barely get to eat them fruits anymore. SO memory will compare well with the actual taste of this vapour :D
    Complex Chaos: Craving Apple Pie -> Known of the flavour for so long and it has taken me long to reach out and get it
  • Vaporize: Charlie's Chalk Dusts -peanut butter
  • --- maybe another of the Foggs famous sauces - > Still need to try two more of their six sauce collection
 
Litchi jumping out of the bottle is understatement, filling the Crius now and squeezed too hard and got some on my fingers. Had to remind myself NOT to lick it off! It smells exactly like it tastes - DE FREAKING LICIOUS!

Need to pace myself and let it steep just a bit, but wow. This is nom. I hope I got enough :D

Edit: Side note must be added - XXX is REALLY addictive, take a puff and 5 seconds later the litchi aftertaste is calling your mod closer again.

Different wattages on the claptons bring slightly varying flavours of fruit on the inhale, but the litchi stays strongest on exhale. I think a week of steeping might make this a really interesting juice!

Guys, please can I ask you a favour

These are the juice reviews threads - so lets keep the topic on your reviews and experiences describing the juices.

Otherwise the threads become cluttered with lots of other comments that are not directly related to juice reviews - which then spoils the experience in future for members trying to read through these threads.
 
Caramel Vanilla: Made on such a quick demand that I was really well surprised> I ordered a 100ml bottle for the first time buying from these guys @VaporMountain It was really great to collect from their place, firstly, and they have sooooooooo much stuff available when you walk in there, you only realize how long they're in the game after seeing alles.

Perfect reason for buying this: It mixes with things like cinammon rolls/desserts,some fruits like a peach go well with it. Adds to strawberries too :flavourful. The clouds have a different consistency when vaping with this liquid. Also mixes incredibly with Vanilla Custards :didthatyesterday: As well as the Witcher's Brew Moondust.

I bought this at the end of November and Im still enjoying it.

Tastes the best in a Goblin Mini.

Mixes the best in any topfill devices :D

It's the always go-to flavoor when Im bored or unsure of what to vape next.

I have added extra Vanilla from VapeMob to further enjoy making the caramel less subtle.

At first when you vape this, it giveth the vape super-smooth caramel-on-the-exhale clouds, and over time, you get vanilla'd all around your palette and tongue. The clouds comfortably taste great on 40W with a dual-coil Bellus - simple wraps.

Smoking this right now :D

The bottling is also a real great plus to the juice inside it: the dripper is that of an obese unicorn dripper with finesse to always never spill :rofl:
