eJuice Review 202: The Viking by Vapesters
Introduction:
Vapesters have been around for a little while, although relatively new, and I’ve been meaning to try their flavours for just as long.
Vapesters hail from Melbourne, and pride themselves on producing eliquids that are tasty, top quality and bursting with flavour!
Today I’ll be reviewing “The Viking”.
From the Website:
Natural tobacco blended with caramel and vanilla skimmed through toffee and rolled in natural nuts.
Inhale:A light vanilla toffee
Exhale:Real tobacco accompanied by a subtle nutty sweet caramel tone
The Review:
It’s been a while since I’ve vaped a tobacco flavour, many companies don’t seem to venture in that direction these days, so when I read that this was going to be a tobacco base, I was quietly excited.
Ive always liked the flavour and scent of tobaccos, obviously not our cheaply made branded death sticks but more so the aromas of pipe tobaccos, a nice cigar or the roll your own tobaccos. I guess that’s a good thing, because…..
“The Viking” is a lovely thick blend of tobacco and caramel with light touches of vanilla and nuts, that’s not only sweetly complex but creamy smooth as well.
The tobacco here is definately not your everyday Marlboro, Im finding that this is more of a light and dry chocolate pipe tobacco, without the edges. It’s not quite a Ry4 and not quite an American tobacco, somewhere in between.
Mixed with that overtone of tobacco is a light dusting of caramel and vanilla that add some of the lower notes that make this juice so smooth.
On the inhale it’s all caramel to begin with with the tobacco picking up speed and showing a little brightness at the top of the inhale.
The exhale sees some vanilla shine through to accompany the caramel and tobacco with the main tobacco note beginning to fade out. As this happens I notice a nuttiness appear, almost replacing the tobacco as the exhale continues. It’s not strong and it is quite undefinable, but adds that little extra depth and giving this vape that extra richness.
There is a lovely sweet and smooth finish to this vape, Vapesters, well done. A fantastic dessert/tobacco vape, that I’m sure even the dessert vapers will enjoy!
