e-Juice Review: Kennedy from Dead Presidents E-liquid

e-Juice Review: Kennedy from Dead Presidents E-liquid

It’s been a little bit since I did a juice review, so guess what we’re doing today!

I’ve got the “Dead Presidents” range of e-juices to take a look at, at the moment. We’ve checked one out so far, Roosevelt, which was a little too sweet for me, but there are another 6 to go, so I’m bound to find something that I love!

This range comes from the USA, and Dead Presidents are focused on creating great juices using high quality ingredients, to make sure they are delivering something delicious to their customers.

The flavours are based on foods we all know and love and inspired by the American history – with a twist-, this line will sure provide you with something to puff on, day after day.

Read on for my review of “Kennedy” from Dead Presidents E-Liquid!

Specifications:

Vendor’s Flavour Description:

A tantalising orange marmalade, straight from Kennedy’s kitchen!

Colour: Light honey PG/VG Ratio: 30/70
Aroma: Orange Texture: Sweet and sugary

Coil/Wick Damage: Minor

Steeping: No steeping necessary

Flavour Notes:

  • Orange
    The orange isn’t what you might expect with this one, while it is distinctly and orange based flavour, you’ll get more of a sweeter, warm, jammy kind of orange rather than the crisp, almost acidic orange that you might get in a candy or a mentholated blend.



Inhale & Exhale

On the inhale, you’ll instantly recognise the orange, it’s fresh at first, very quickly becoming sticky and warm, and very sweet in a jammy kind of way, but not all the way, you will still notice a little bit of citrus here.
As the inhale continues, orange rind and bready notes appear through the base almost leading a pie base to the fore, not quite as savoury as a pastry, and not quite as doughy as a traditional dessert pie.

The top of the inhale is where this flavour is strongest, just like most other e-liquids, and it’s here that the switch from citrus to marmalade or jam, you’re hit with a bit of a sugar rush that removes any of the citrus and acidic notes, replacing them with a nice thick jammy mix that feels like you’re about to bite down on a thick chunk of gritty sugary jam.

As you exhale, that thicker, jammy profile continues with a little complexity and richness collecting along the way. I feel like another fruit may have been added here, perhaps a raspberry to round out the orange a little, as it’s just too rich for an orange. This rich, sugary marmalade blend flows right through to the end of the vape, providing a lovely dense mouth feel and fullness of flavour only a dessert can provide.



Thick, rich and jammy, this Orange marmalade is sure to get your tastebuds tingling!

My Thoughts

I honestly didn’t think I’d enjoy this one, but it’s surprised me! Orange flavours tend to wane and lose their strength very quickly, but this did not disappoint!

This lovely thick orange marmalade reminds me of biting into a homemade jam and feeling those gritty unmelted sugar crystals that you often get. It’s thick, bold and full flavoured, with the orange pulling up as more of a stewed orange rather than an expected fresh and bright citrus.

An interesting mix that you might not otherwise try, but go for it, it’s a lovely flavour!

Great work DP!
