Digby's Orchard Dusk: A Deep Dive for Discerning MTL Vapers
Digby's Juices, a UK-based e-liquid manufacturer, has carved a niche for itself in the vaping world by prioritizing high-quality, gourmet flavors. They cater to vapers who appreciate nuance and subtlety, shunning overly sweet and artificial profiles for a more refined vaping experience. Digby's Orchard Dusk e-juice perfectly embodies this philosophy.
A Symphony of Tobacco and Apple:
Orchard Dusk is a 50/50 PG/VG blend, specifically designed for mouth-to-lung (MTL) vaping. MTL vapers utilize higher resistance coils and a tighter draw, resulting in a vape that closely resembles the experience of a cigarette. The flavor profile itself is a complex dance between three tobacco blends and a trio of apple varieties.
This unique combination creates a symphony of flavors on the palate. The base of earthy, smooth tobacco lingers pleasantly after each exhale, offering a satisfying depth that some vapors may liken to a high-quality pipe tobacco. The apple component isn't a brash burst of sweetness, but rather a delicate counterpoint that I would describe as "fresh" or "crisp." It adds a touch of brightness that cuts through the richness of the tobacco, preventing the vape from becoming too heavy or monotone. The balanced nature of this e-juice, highlighting how neither the tobacco nor the apple dominates the flavor profile. The apple note seemed to become more prominent as the e-juice steeped for additional week, after vaping half the bottle in the beginning, adding another layer of complexity to the vaping experience. So definitely recommend letting it steep as long as you can resist cracking it open, or buy two, one to steep, and one for now, to truly appreciate the development of the flavour. True Eliquid craftsmanship, blending a flavour to appreciate with age like a fine wine.
Performance and Ideal Setup:
Beyond its delightful taste, Orchard Dusk is also a very coil-friendly juice. Unlike some sweeter e-liquids that can gunk up coils quickly, Orchard Dusk vapes clean, minimizing the need for frequent coil changes. To unlock its full flavor potential, Sam at Digby’s recommends steeping the e-juice for 48 hours after adding nicotine. The longer you steep it, the more the flavors meld together, creating a truly harmonious vaping experience.
The ideal wattage range for Orchard Dusk falls between 3.6 volts and 4.2 volts, and is best suited for coils with a resistance of 0.8-1.2 ohms. This setup provides a tight draw that allows the intricate flavors of the e-juice to shine through, ensuring you experience the full depth of the tobacco and apple interplay. I have also tested this blend on one of Squonker. rebuildable atomizers (RBA) to see how it vaped on a more open draw, and I was super impressed with the level of detail and flavor clarity achieved with this method. Possibly my preferred setup for evening vape, giving a slight different flavour, and overall experience.
A Refined MTL Experience for Specific Preferences:
In conclusion, Digby's Orchard Dusk is a meticulously crafted e-juice that caters specifically to MTL vapers who enjoy a complex and nuanced flavor experience. The balanced combination of earthy tobacco and fresh apple creates a satisfying vape that transcends the realm of a simple tobacco e-liquid, making it perfect for all-day vaping (ADV).
Customization: Orchard Dusk comes in 50ml and 100ml shortfill bottles, which means you'll need to add your own nicotine shots if desired. This allows for customization based on your individual preference. For those seeking a completely nicotine-free experience, Orchard Dusk can still be enjoyed for its flavor profile alone.
It may not be for Everyone: While MTL vapers will find Orchard Dusk delightful, sub-ohm vapers who prefer a looser draw and larger clouds may not find this e-juice as enjoyable. The 50/50 PG/VG blend and flavor profile are optimized for the MTL experience, which may not translate well to sub-ohm vaping, and you may want to select a different Digby’s Ejuice, from their growing collection. Such as the outstanding Deep Fried Donuts, or Custard Cream.
I love the way Digby’s aren’t just looking at selling Ejuice’s, they are looking at selling a vaping experience, marrying up the perfect juice with the perfect set up, as they explain on their site, some juices are designed for clouds. And some such as Orchard Dusk are designed and mixed with the MTL vapor in mind. This is why customers keep returning, and why they have successfully built such a great Digby’s community, with loyal Digbyites. If you want to get involved and join the growing number of Digbyites then you can head over to the Digby’s Discord site.
