Mango Ice
VG / PG : 50 / 50 20mg salt nicotine
Ripe and juicy yellow mango is combined with the sour edge of green mango to conjure a well-balanced and fresh vibe .
The yellow mango includes a pulpy and mellow feel and oozes the powerful and tropical taste found in the fruit itself .
Being more tart in flavour , the green mango gives off a perfect opposition to the sweetness found in the other mango notes .
The decision to combine two elements of the same flavour profile was obviously a good one , as it was extremely easy to vape and the added cooling element only boosts the e-liquid ’ s revitalising nature .
Blue Razz Lemonade Ice
VG / PG : 50 / 50 20mg salt nicotine
Another icy e-liquid , blue raspberry lemonade flavours are one of my favourites .
The blue raspberry gives off strong , candy-like vibes that emanates a sour sensation on the tip of the tongue .
Lemonades can come across as sweet or sour but this manages to offer both a smooth sweetness and a sharp sourness simultaneously and I really enjoyed this unique take on a classic flavour profile .
Last , but not least , when the powerful and biting hit of ice came into play , it gave the raspberry and lemon notes a platform on which to display their refreshing and fruity personas .
Peach Ice
50 / 50 20mg salt nicotine
Immediately a bright blast of sweet peach was evident and had a strong springy fruitiness to it .
The peach flavouring mirrored the effervescent sweetness found in stone fruits and I loved the intense and frosty hit of ice on the exhale .
The overall flavour seemed to be extremely crisp and clear and was relatively simple in terms of individual flavour components and , because of this , my coils managed to last just that little bit longer when using this e-liquid .
Sour Apple Ice
VG / PG : 50 / 50 20mg salt nicotine
The most noticeable sourness in a vape that I have tried to date , this flavour absolutely knocks all other sour flavours out of the park … easily .
Sourness is a notoriously difficult attribute to execute but this flavour managed to not only nail an unmatched sour sensation on my tongue but also brought a bright candy green apple into play .
This made it a recipe for deliciousness and as indicated by the name , there is also a sharp , but refreshing , hit of cooling agent , often found alongside fruity flavoured e-liquids .
I thoroughly enjoyed vaping this flavour and all of the sweet , sour and fruity tones that it entailed .
Sweet Blueberry Ice
VG / PG : 50 / 50 20mg salt nicotine
Blueberry e-liquids are one of the most distinct sets of flavours out there and are instantly recognisable by many vapers .
The blueberry notes in this flavour carry a subtle sweetness , making for a delightful and bouncy overall taste .
The flavour is opposite to the many dessert-based blueberry flavours which come across as deep , mellow and often with a coulis-esque taste .
In this e-liquid , however , the taste is similar to a blueberry candy or soft drink .
It has a really clear flavour that is complemented perfectly by the powerful and revitalising wave of iciness given by the added cooling agent .
I was surprisingly impressed when trying out this flavour and fans of fruity e-liquids will no doubt be the same .
Watermelon Ice
VG / PG : 50 / 50 20mg salt nicotine
Another simple , yet effective , flavour where a blend of ripe watermelon is combined with a sweet , candy-like watermelon to provide a well-balanced mix of the two .
With its many sweet notes , Watermelon Ice ( like Sour Apple Ice ) also contains a fair amount of sourness that further accentuates the whole sweet / sour combination .
In addition to the potent and tropical feel of the watermelon , there is also an obvious introduction of ice right on the inhale that lasts through the whole vaping process .
I could really appreciate the incredibly tasty and incredibly clear flavour presented by this e-liquid which will be a hit with icy vapers for sure .
