Aroma.
As soon as you break the seal, and unscrew the cap, you get the sweetness vanilla custard aroma rising up out of the bottle. Very inviting.
On vaping the King is dead.
As I first inhaled the thick dense vapor poring off my single Clapton coil, I was quite surprised, by the initial dryness of the vape, the precise vanilla extract seems in rush in up your tongue, with a curious texture, very clean, very dry, almost drawing the moisture from the centre part of your tongue. Whilst having an almost cleansing quality to it.
This pre described vanilla infusions rule in the overall vaping sensation, becomes quite apparent as the following wave of creamy custard come rolling in over your tongue, seeming to start at the sides, and the curl inwards toward the centre on tongue, soaking in and absorbing into your prepared tongue.
I know you will be reading this thinking, what is he on about, but you really need to try it to understand, the way the vapor seems to preform on the tongue, the two sensations that you seem to get from the dry vanilla, combined with the creamy lashings of custard, combine towards the back of the tongue to create a sensational vanilla custard, perfectly complimenting each other. Each layer of flavour enhancing the other. Leaving your taste buds watering and you longing for more.
I suppose it is the same chemistry behind, salt and tequilas, one prepares the palette, whilst the other hits it with flavour.
On exhale, it delivers a truly creamy vanilla custard, with a nice level of natural sweetness, that just seems to ignite on the tip on your tongue.
As you continue to vape the distinction between the dry vanilla and the creamy custard seems to become less apparent, but still lingers in the background of the vape, reappearing after a short break.
Vapor production on this high blend mix is second to none, with a seemingly unstoppable amount of vapor pouring of the single coil.
Conclusion.
This is definitely a different take on the classic vanilla custard, with an amazing use of flavours, and textures. This is defiantly one to savoured, one drip at a time.
