3Kings Cali Vape Pen – Grandaddy Purple Review
Introduction
For this review, I’m taking a look at the 3Kings Cali Vape Pen – Grandaddy Purple, kindly supplied by The CBD Dispensary.
For those unfamiliar, The CBD Dispensary are a UK-based retailer specialising in all things CBD, from oils and capsules through to vape devices and disposables. Their focus is on quality, transparency, and safety – everything they stock is lab-tested, age restricted, and aimed at giving customers peace of mind in what can sometimes be a confusing market.
With that in mind, I was really keen to give this Cali Vape Pen a try and see how it stacks up – not only in terms of flavour and quality, but also how it performs for relaxation, pain relief, and sleep.
The 3Kings Cali Vape Pen
The 3Kings Cali Vape Pen is part of their Cali range, and it’s very different from your everyday vape kit.
-
Cartridge size: 1ml
-
Strength: 2000mg cannabinoids
-
THC content: <0.2% (legal under UK rules)
-
Formulation: full-spectrum hemp extract with naturally derived terpenes
-
Hardware: 3rd generation ceramic coil, designed for clean flavour and safety
-
Free from: solvents, glycerine, additives, heavy metals, GMOs
Unlike a standard e-liquid vape that uses PG/VG and nicotine (or CBD isolate), this is a ready-to-go disposable style pen, pre-filled with a high-strength full-spectrum extract. There’s no messing around with coils or tanks – it’s literally pick up and puff.
Because it’s been designed specifically for this formulation, the airflow and coil are tuned to get the most out of the hemp extract. That means you get smooth draws, consistent vapour, and none of the burnt or harsh aftertaste you sometimes find with cheaper CBD disposables.
The device also comes with a standard type-C charging port, which is great to be able charge up when required.
Quality and Safety
One of the big selling points of the Cali Vape Pen is the emphasis on safety and purity. It contains no Vitamin E acetate, no solvents or thinning agents, and no synthetic additives. The oil is a natural whole plant extract infused with terpenes, and the pen itself uses a ceramic coil to avoid any nasty metallic residue.
Of course, it comes with the usual safety warnings:
-
Do not drive or operate heavy machinery while using this product.
-
Restricted to ages 18 and over.
-
Consult a physician before using.
-
Not to be used if pregnant, breastfeeding, or with certain health conditions.
I’ll also stress here – this is a strong product. At 2000mg, it’s a lot more potent than many CBD vapes on the market. My advice to anyone new to this sort of vape: start low and go slow.
Flavours in the Cali Range
The Cali range comes in a wide variety of strain-inspired flavours, including:
-
Northern Light
-
Jack Herer
-
Train Wreck
-
Grandaddy Purple
-
Durban Poison
-
Ice Cream Cake
-
Sour Diesel
-
Green Crack
-
Cali Kush
-
Skywalker
Each is styled after a classic cannabis strain, either indica or sativa leaning, which gives you some choice depending on whether you’re after something relaxing or more uplifting.
Grandaddy Purple – First Impressions
The first flavour I tried was Grandaddy Purple, and I have to say it made an excellent introduction to the range.
On the inhale you get that classic grape and berry sweetness, balanced with a slightly earthy undertone. It’s smooth, clean, and doesn’t catch in the throat – something I really appreciate as I’ve had some rough experiences with cheaper CBD disposables in the past.
The effects come on within just a few minutes. There’s a noticeable wave of calm, the day’s stress melts away, and for me the sharpness of my pain begins to dull. After 3–4 puffs I felt settled, relaxed, and ready for bed.
If you overdo it, though, it can be a bit much. The first time I used it, I puffed on it like I would my regular vape – 7 or 8 pulls – and I was very nicely spaced out! Great if that’s what you’re after, but not really a nightly routine. These days I stick to about 3 puffs in the evening, with maybe a top-up just before bed, and that seems to be the sweet spot.
My Personal Experience
A bit of background: over the last nine years I’ve had four major surgeries, which have left me in constant pain. I’ve been prescribed Oramorph and tramadol to manage it, but I was looking for something to help reduce my reliance on those strong meds and, just as importantly, something to help me sleep.
Since using the Cali Vape Pen, I’ve found that it really does help:
-
Pain: The edge is taken off, making the discomfort more manageable.
-
Relaxation: Within minutes I feel calmer and more settled.
-
Sleep: Probably the biggest benefit – I sleep longer and deeper, and I wake up refreshed instead of groggy.
-
Value: Because I’m only using 3–4 puffs a night, the pen lasts ages, which makes the initial price far more reasonable.
It’s also a great way to wind down at the end of the day. That “chilled and relaxed” vibe is a nice bonus on top of the pain relief and better sleep.
Final Thoughts
The 3Kings Cali Vape Pen – Grandaddy Purple is a fantastic option for anyone looking for a strong, effective CBD vape that actually delivers on both flavour and effect.
The flavour is smooth and enjoyable, the effects are noticeable and genuinely helpful, and the longevity of the pen makes it a lot better value than you might first think. Most importantly, it’s helped me personally cut down on strong prescription meds in the evenings and get a proper night’s sleep – which, for me, is priceless.
It’s not a light or casual vape – the strength means you need to treat it with respect, start low, and find your sweet spot. But once you do, it’s an excellent tool for relaxation, pain relief, and sleep support.
Would I recommend it? Absolutely. For anyone looking for a high-quality CBD/THC vape pen, especially if you’re dealing with pain or struggling with sleep, the Cali Grandaddy Purple is well worth trying.
