6mg
50/50 PG/VG

Flavor: Pitched as a "decadent caramel flan with hints of hazelnut" this is no slouch people! The caramel permeates throughout the inhale and exhale; with the hazelnut taking a background to the powerful, creamy taste of caramel. It has a familiar custard taste, very creamy, with a slight hint of vanilla. Overall, it is an incredibly rich, complex flavor.
Aroma: Quite compelling; it smells like a slice of caramel flan, and you can even pick up the hazelnut hints. The smell lingers throughout the air, leaving a rich aroma behind.
Throat hit: At 6mg, you start to give way to throat hit, but I have a feeling this liquid is decidedly smooth to begin with. It isn't completely smooth, the hazelnut definitely has a kick, but compared to other liquids it is decidedly timid.
Overall: Color me pleased, this is a divine dessert liquid not to be missed by any custard/caramel fan. 5/5


6mg
50/50 PG/VG

Flavor: DAMN! This is pitched as a "toasted macaroon with brown sugar and cream" and I gotta say, this is a nutty, tasty treat. The almond taste is prolific, though it isn't a weird almond, to those who have had the lesser RY4's out there, you're in for a true-to-life almond taste. Layered throughout the liquid is decidedly pronounced sugar and whipped cream notes, coming together to form an inviting vape.
Aroma: Smells just like a bunch of almonds, drizzled in brown sugar and vanilla whipped cream.
Throat hit: Even at 6mg, this juice kicks like a mule! I love to throw this in my dripper of choice when I'm looking for that kick throughout the day.
Overall: Another stellar flavor. I'm not a fan of macaroon, I've had some juice that tasted like downright alcohol; this, however, manages to pull off the flavor profile with stunning ease. Another winner! 5/5


6mg
50/50 PG/VG

Flavor: Now this...is an interesting flavor. I'm definitely NOT a fan of floral liquid, and this is pitched as "condensed milk with rose essence and nutty tones!", so right off the bat I was leery. Much to my surprise, it is a pleasant vape, all things considered. The milky taste is semi sweet and thick, almost like a cream. The rose flavoring is, much to my satisfaction, sweet; though you do get that "wow, this is....uh...this taste's like a flower.." it isn't in your face, like eating a rose, it's actually somewhat sweet. I didn't pick up the nutty taste, but perhaps it'll come through in time.
Aroma: An innovative infusion of rose and condensed milk; I've got to say, it's a working combination.
Throat hit: This is a very mellow flavor, it is best to enjoy the taste, you won't find much of a kick here at all.
Overall: I initially thought I wouldn't be the biggest fan, yet I was pleasantly surprised. Though it is not something I would typically vape, I was able to enjoy it for what it was, much to my dismay that condensed milk, rose and nut could come together and actually mix wonderfully. The only thing I couldn't get past is the inherent floral taste, though sweeter than others, it will just never click with my palate. 3/5

6mg
50/50 PG/VG

Flavor: Um....let me be the first to ask that this be sold by the gallon, if possible. All I've got to say is wow. Pitched as a "vanilla custard with peppermint" this is in my top 3, that's for sure. The familiar taste of custard with a splash of peppermint blends together into almost a shamrock shake of sorts. The vanilla custard is smooth and sweet, and the peppermint is more "candy like" than straight menthol. They're right, it is sinful.
Aroma: Like a nice tall shamrock shake!
Throat hit: I found custard to be a smooth vape, however this does have peppermint, so expect the familiar kick of menthol even at low nic ratios.
Overall: Rock solid, guys. To those out there who are searching for a custard vape with a hint of peppermint, look no further. This liquid is to die for, and I would like to further reinstate that it needs to be offered by the gallon! 5/5

I had a lot of fun sampling the V4Vape line, a true premium juice from a company who has been nothing but a pleasure to deal with. Be sure to visit Nirvana Vapor, where you can purchase a 15ml bottle, 0-18mg, for the respectable price of USD 11.99. Also be sure to follow V4Vape on instagram, @v4vapeliquid. Thanks guys!

Joytech eRoll + juice review

Today I'll be going over the Joytech eRoll ands some juice provided to me by VapeRev. I'd like to personally thank Amber, all those at VapeRev, Midas Juice, and Mr. GoodVape


The eRoll by Joytech is a tried and true take on the "cig-a-like." It is aimed at those making the transition to vaping, affording the user the look of a cigarette, without all the negative aspects of a traditional analog. It comes packaged alongside a portable charger, a usb cable, two batteries (3.7v) and 2 atomizer heads. The eRoll is powered by a small atomizer that holds roughly .6ml of e-liquid. The 3.7v battery is is 1000mAh, so it has the capability of providing lengthy life, though mileage may vary depending on how much you use it. It is well constructed, last's throughout the day with normal use, and works relatively well when compared with similar setups. Here is what I liked about the eRoll

Portability
The eRoll is small, sleek, and portable. It slipped in and out of my pocket with ease, and was a treat carrying around. I typically have two batteries, a bottle of juice, and whatever mech I grab, so I am usually weighed down quite a bit. It was very convenient having something I could throw in my pocket and forget about. It also is a "hands-free" device, as the eRoll only fires when you drag; therefore no need to worry about it firing in my pocket!
Ease of Use
The eRoll is hassle free, as all you need to do is fill the atomizer, attach the cone, and screw in the battery. The device fires when you drag off of it, cooling down afterwords almost instantaneously. The combined portability and hassle free experience really do the eRoll justice, it is perhaps the easiest device I have ever used. The atomizer rarely leaked, it fired instantly every time. I have used the Blu and similar blister pack cigalikes, and they're absolutely terrible. If the cigalike is up your alley, the eRoll is the golden standard.
Vapor and Flavor production
The little 510 atomizer surprisingly produces a decent amount of vapor AND flavor! Though it isn't comparable to a traditional tank system, it is leagues better than the Blu and other alternatives. The vapor production is surprisingly dense, and the flavor is actually just as good, if not better, than a few tank systems I own.

Overall, the eRoll is a beginner device, aimed at those transitioning into the world of vaping. If you don't want to mess with a larger device like the MVP, don't want to constantly replace coils, carry around juice and extra batteries, the eRoll is a sound alternative to tobacco. The ease of use, performance, and long battery life all make this a WINNER in my book!



12mg
50/50

Flavor: Okay, before you write me off, just listen. When you think of e-liquid, Pistachio doesn't exactly spring out at you. Surprisingly enough, it is a very complex, tasteful, and interesting experience. It has the traditional pistachio taste, with a hint of salt, even managing to work in the shell taste! It's a warm, flavorful vape, very organic and true to nature. It's got a twist of tobacco and dark chocolate, but it is definitely nutty.
Aroma: Like a bowl of Pistachios. Pair it with your favorite beer, and get ready for a nice time!
Throat hit/vapor: Surprisingly mellow, but it does produce a nice plume of smoke.
Overall: Though it definitely isn't something you could vape all day, it is a nice treat, and an interesting foray into experimental liquid. If you're a fan of the nut, you will definitely be a fan of the juice. 4/5


12mg
50/50

Flavor: Yummy yummy yummy. A true take on a classic flavor, utilizing the cake batter and sweet, heavy vanilla taste exceptionally well. The inhale is delightfully strong on the vanilla end, with the exhale being dominated by cake batter. Very sweet, very rich.
Aroma: Just like a hot, fluffy cupcake slathered in vanilla frosting.
Throat hit/vapor: The throat hit is definitely heavy, with the equally dense vapor partnering with it nicely.
Overall: A very flavorful, rich dessert vape, sure to please both cake & vanilla lovers.



12mg
50/50

Flavor: This is out of this world amazing. Both part's sweet and sour, this juice is a refreshingly nice take on sweet summer drink. It's got the familiar "bite" of pink lemonade, loaded with sweetness and just the right twist of sourness. 
Aroma: JUST LIKE THE DRINK. The smell fills the air, which is just wonderful.
Throat hit/vapor: The throat hit is sharp, and the vapor production is wispy. Not dense, but definitely has a presence. 
Overall: I love lemonade flavors, and it's nice to try one so delightfully true to form. It manages to perfect the pink lemonade formula, being sweet, sour and refreshing in all the right places. To lemonade fans out there, this is a definite no brainer.


I enjoyed my time with the eLiquid provided by VapeRev, as well as the eRoll. I once again would like to thank all at VapeRev, Amber, and all the e-liquid manufacturers. Without you, none of this would be possible.
