This is an excerpt of my review of Aunty Flo's Pear Drops by The Alchemist's Cupboard. To read the full review please visit my blog.
This is a personal review of a product I either bought or received free of charge. The opinions expressed here represent my own and not those of this website, ECF.
"As I draw the vapour into my mouth, I discover to my horror, the presence of menthol. I'm not a fan of menthol or mints of any kind, but I consider myself a professional and I did promise several reviews ago that I would vape with my eyes wide open, so I persist. And in doing so, I discover that it's not too bad; in fact it works quite well and I confess it's grown on me. On the inhalation, the tongue receives a mild, fruity sweetness and as the vapour reaches the back of the throat, the coolness of the menthol asserts itself. There's also that familiar mounting of pressure at the back of the throat which signals at a certain point that inhalation should stop. The flavour of pear is most prominent at that point in the breath cycle when I've stopped inhaling and I'm about to exhale. As I exhale, the pear flavour continues but is overwhelmed briefly by the iciness of the menthol coming to the fore and which lingers in the aftertaste."
NB. Since writing the review, I've learnt that the cooling agent isn't menthol. It's Koolada.
