REVIEWS By Alex Shenker 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 144 ISSUE 04 VAPOUROUND MAGAZINE 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.
