it’s extremely smooth and moreish.
Definitely a good start.
Dulcet
Black Bamboo is a premium E-liquid
manufacturer based in the UK that
produces high quality juices using the
best available ingredients. They have put
a lot of research in to developing smooth,
flavoursome liquids that attempt to cross
the line in to all-day vape status.
Serendipity
The first E-liquid I tried from Black
Bamboo was Serendipity. As with most
premium juices all of the products in this
line come packaged in glass bottles with
droppers and a stylish label that tells you
everything about the E-liquid.
Serendipity is a simple yet effective
strawberry milkshake vape, blending
a sweet, fresh strawberry flavour with
thick creams and undertones of vanilla.
Although not unique this flavour is
lovingly crafted in this E-liquid and
This juice is the definition of smooth.
Featuring luxurious caramel with
different custard flavours and a small
hint of vanilla it’s extremely sweet and
comforting. I really enjoyed this E-liquid
at high temperatures as the warm vapour
really complimented the taste and added
to the smoothness of this E-liquid. I really
enjoyed Dulcet and definitely hope to
come back to it at some point.
Opulent
As the name would suggest this is a rich
and indulgent juice. Thick peanut butter
is mixed with marshmallows and a hint of
vanilla that seems to be a running theme
in quite a few of Black Bamboo’s juices.
It’s a well-balanced E-liquid that on paper
is in danger of becoming overly sweet,
however the peanut butter helps offset
the sugary marshmallow and the vanilla
brings it home beautifully.
Ebullience
Ebullience is the quality of being cheerful
and full of energy. I think this E-liquid
embodies that definition perfectly with a
a hint of graham crackers (digestive
biscuits). It tastes exactly like the real
thing and I have to commend Captain
Obvious for absolutely nailing the flavour.
This juice also features a 90/10 VG/PG
ratio, helping to produce thick clouds of
vapour to accompany the delicious taste.
What’s not to like?
USA based Captain Obvious have
developed a line of premium E-liquids.
Hand made using only the highest quality
ingredients all three of these juices have
a clear and distinct flavour combination
and I’m certain there’s something here to
match most people’s tastes.
The Key Lime One
As the name would suggest this is a
key lime pie flavoured E-liquid. I have to
say key lime pie is one of my absolute
favourite desserts and this juice does it
justice! It’s a delicious blend of tart lime
with a creamy vanilla cheesecake and

The Beach Bum One
A real summer inspired offering here
from Captain Obvious, The Beach Bum
is a tropical fruit cocktail that will make
you feel like you really are on an island
somewhere sipping from a coconut.
Featuring strawberries, peaches,
pineapples, coconuts and tons of other
tropical fruits it really is packed with
flavour and with a 70/30 VG/PG ratio
it’s smooth and cloudy to boot. If you’re
