After running very low on my homemade lime and coconut blend, I decided I needed more! I had been planning a big order from Vaporbomb and figured I would get their coconut again. Then, it dawned on me that Vaporbomb has a custom e-juice option. I went for it. I got 10ml of 50/50 pg/vg 12ml juice. They allow you to choose 3 flavors to mix. I chose key lime, coconut, and mango. I specified "a dash of mango" in the write in box. I can't say for sure (since the juice is pretty fresh), but it sure tastes like they did indeed put in just a dash of mango.
Bearing the newness of this e-juice, my findings and impressions regarding this mix should be considered preliminary at this time. Also for consideration: I sampled this mix using a standard Boge 2.5 ohm 510 atomizer. Before use it was debridged, dewicked, cleaned with 99% isopropyl alcohol and dry burned thoroughly. I ran the atomizer on a fully charged, manual Joye eGo 510 battery. I used a delrin drip tip and did put the eGo cone on.
I consider the mix a success! It is very tasty and it compares very favorably with my homemade concoction. My biggest concerns about the mix were that the key lime would be too sweet and that the mix overall would not have enough dryness to be balanced. I was happy to see that between the three flavors used, there is a pretty good balance. The mix is marginally sweeter and less dry, but it is much closer to my original mix than anticipated.
The key lime flavor is fuller and more pronounced in the blend than the FSUSA cold pressed lime. It does not drown the coconut out but does taste better than the original lime! As for the mango, I guess it is a little bit of an X factor. I can detect an undertone of mango-like fruitiness here, but it is very subtle. Whether this is because I asked for "a dash" or because the juice is so young is a matter of speculation. What matters is that the overall lime-coconut flavor is nicely complimented by a little tropical fruit tinge. This is exactly what I was hoping for!
The vapor production was satisfactory and the throat hit was good, both indiscernible from the characteristics of the original, homemade blend.
Overall, I am very happy with my initial impressions of this mix. I look forward to seeing how or if it will change over the next few weeks. I also realize that this mix is one custom-tailored to my whims and will undoubtedly be unsuitable for many PV users. I like it, and that was my goal. Now I will have to investigate its performance when used in conjunction with my preferred nighttime libations.
That's all for this topic now. I have an intriguing mixture of black perique and green apple that demands my immediate, undivided attention!
