Beer + Lime Beer Cola VG/PG Ratio: 70/30
Additional sweetener: Moderate
Throat hit: Mild, with cooling VG/PG Ratio: 70/30
Additional sweetener: Moderate
Throat hit: Mild, with cooling I’ve never seen beer attempted in e-liquid
before. But VoVan have absolutely nailed
a Mexican-style lager with lime and it’s very
satisfying to vape. This refreshing blend can
easily be vaped all day. The lime accent
is moderately strong: somewhere between
lime cordial and fresh fruit. But the real
star of the show is the authentic lager that
permeates the mix. The profile is finished
with a mild coolant, which keeps things
nice and fresh. If you thought Beer + Lime was unusual
in the vape world, Beer Cola is even more
unique. Cola is the dominant flavour. It’s
far less cloying than in some other cola
e-liquids and doesn’t linger or become
sickly. The light lager note is far more subtle
than in Beer + Lime. This combination of
flavours works well, and I found myself
vaping half the bottle in a matter of days.
The mild coolant keeps the sweetness
of the cola at bay. A weird and wonderful
beverage vape that needs to be tried
before it’s judged. Blaze Tropical Rainbow Blaze

This is described as a blend of blueberry,
raspberry and ice, suggesting a blue slush-
style profile. The top note of sweet candy
raspberry is bright and sticky with hints of
a more natural tartness. These brighter
elements are contrasted by a deeper
candy blueberry, adding body with its
mellow earthiness and mild florals. The
mix is finished with a moderately strong
coolant. This is a very well-balanced
blue raspberry blend and it’s easy to see
why it has become so popular. All day vape
material. This is billed as a blend of watermelon,
kiwi and passionfruit. But instead of
watermelon, I’m getting a juicy, authentic
cantaloupe. This is contrasted with a
slightly sharper passionfruit that adds
tartness without overpowering the fresh
cantaloupe. The kiwi is more an accent
than a key player, adding some earthy
sweetness and giving a boost to those
juicy melon notes. This is not what I would
usually expect from a tropical mix, but
I’ve highly enjoyed it and it has become my
favourite Pukka Juice offering. A brilliant
choice for exotic vapers. Described as sweets blended with the
original Blaze base. The top note of
potent candy lime is very bright and not
as sharp as you would expect from more
natural renditions. This is complemented
by a subtle candy strawberry, which is a
classic pairing well-executed. These top
notes are supported by the original Blaze
base, which is more subdued but still
very much part of the mix, with its bright
sweetness and sticky body. The blend is
finished with a moderately strong coolant,
resulting in a fresh candy vape that will
likely please many.
Vaperson Lemon Ice Tea:
VG/PG Ratio: 70/30
Additional sweetener: Moderate
Throat hit: Mild, with cooling
Iced tea is a very difficult profile to get
right in the context of e-liquid, so how
does VoVan’s offering fare? Black tea
dominates here. It’s authentic, carrying a
rich earthy sweetness along the way. This
is contrasted with a mild sweet lemon
accent, which cuts through the sweetness
of the tea and adds a pleasant tartness
to the mix. The blend is finished with a
moderately strong coolant. An authentic,
light and refreshing iced tea that many will
enjoy.
