Crunchy Cream Donuts – Frosted Lemon
80 % VG , 3mg Nicotine , 60ml
' Crunchy Cream Donuts ' is a company from the USA specialising in doughnut flavoured vapes . So far , they have released two flavours - One being raspberry and the other ( of which I will be reviewing ) is a lemon flavour . Initially I was very excited to try out a lemon doughnut vape , as you get lots of doughnut flavours and you get lots of citrusy / lemon flavours , but there are not that many that factor both of these diverse flavours into one juice . The bottle I received is 60ml ( roughly 2.1fl . oz ) and made out of clear glass . It has a dripper cap and has a simple label that is quite similar in its layout to the popular doughnut chain Krispy Kreme . I feel that the cover was not really aimed
Blood by The Ace Of Vapez
I recently came across this eJuice at the Vaper Expo in Birmingham , and a friend had recommended it . I find that it is important to support up and coming UK juice lines , as a lot of the time , it seems that American juices take all the attention , when we have some incredible products right here in our back garden . Today I am going to take a look at The Ace of Vapez from Wolverhampton , UK . TAOV has their own line of cloud chasing eliquids – all the labels feature a caricature of Yoda ( from Star Wars ) and are named ( rather uniquely !) after different bodily fluids , such as Sweat , Tears , P and Blood . Today I am reviewing ' Blood '.
The bottle that ' Blood ' came in was plastic and held 70ml ( 2.5 fl . oz ) worth of this fantastically juicy flavoured liquid . It came as 80 % VG and 0.3 % nicotine , 134 VAPOUROUND MAGAZINE USA at young children , although due to the relatively bright colouring some people may disagree with me . There are warnings on the label , informing that this juice is only for people over the age of 18 and also that this eLiquid contains nicotine , both things that I find to be important to display . I have reviewed quite a few doughnut eJuices out there , and few have been as smooth or delicate as this one . As I have said before , there is a very fine line between being too intense or too bland . I found Frosted Lemon from Crunchy Cream Donuts to be right in betweenwhich is a good thing for me , however it all comes down to personal preference , some like mild vapes and some like full on flavour .
At first I felt this juice resembled more of a lemon meringue pie than doughnut , but after a few tries , a creamy lemon with a deliciously satisfying doughnut flavour emerged in full force . The lemon is sweet , subtle and not at all sour , which I think is a really nice touch because occasionally I get lemon flavoured vapes that taste a lot like a citrus smelling cleaning product ( although this is not the case with Frosted Lemons !) The doughnut element of this juice is super realistic , it amazes me as to how one can turn such an authentic doughnut taste into an eLiquid !
and I believe this was from their cloud chasing range instead of the standard range ( which features 30 % VG ) The label provides an ingredient list , PG / VG ratio , nicotine percentage , batch number , an expiry date and several warnings including ' No under 18s ' and ' Contains nicotine '. I found it was extremely informative and useful to have these details readily available , as many brands do not include warnings . The twisty bottle cap itself unfortunately is not childproof , however it does not leak . In my experience I would recommend you place this bottle high up or hidden from young children in case they ingest it .
The first time I tried this juice , I had no idea what the flavour description was , I just went with what my nose told me smelled nice . When I sniffed ' Blood ', I knew then and there I had to try this incredible elixir . The rich , juicy taste pulled me in and grabbed my attention . After a few puffs on my dripper , I could pick out a luscious strawberry candy mixed with pear candy . To me , it felt like a fruit punch flavour ,
A cracking thing about Crunchy Cream Donut ' s juice is that despite the relatively strong components of lemon and doughnut , it is incredibly smooth on the inhale , giving it the potential to be an all day vape . This juice is at 80 % VG , so naturally it has decent cloud production , without compromising too much when it comes to flavour . To conclude , I enjoyed the realistic flavouring of this liquid and the rather unique mix of doughnut and lemon- as well as the creamy aspect . The vapour production was decent and the overall smoothness I experienced whilst vaping was amazing . I would give this juice 4 / 5 .
although more on the strawberry side rather than anything else . It was ever so sweet and mouth watering , I keep going back to TAOV ' s ' Blood ' as an all day vape . The fact that it is strong in taste is what appeals to me , I thoroughly enjoy strong tasting and sweet flavours . Now , you may assume that this particular juice that I tried would be compromised in vapour production , due to the fact that the flavouring was so strong , but at 80 % VG , it is actually astonishing . I purchased this juice for about £ 15 although on their website they have the option of a 30ml (£ 9.99or a 100ml £ 28.99 ) which is a little pricey but in my opinion it is well worth it .
All in all , I found TAOV ' s ' Blood ' to be a great all rounder , as it has decent cloud production , a stellar taste and a well informed label . I would rate this juice a 4.5 / 5 as I enjoyed it but the only minor problem was the price - but so close to being ' The Perfect Vape '!
