Let me start by saying I tend to prefer fruit flavors, but I love anything that's pleasant to vape! I'm actually a big fan of eliquid Planet in general, especially their fruity flavors. I strongly recommend checking out the watermelon, which is one of my favorites so far. That said, not a huge fan of this sampler. I vape a magma (510) and drip, always, just to give you a frame of reference. I use both manual and automatic batts. As always, please remember that tastes are subjective and my feelings about these flavors should not fully impact whether or not you give them a shot. These were all 100% PG liquids. Let me also say that I don't really LOVE a lot of throat hit... so please be mindful of that as you read these reviews. I find too much to be unbearable. Too much throat hit, to me, is not worth the hacking wheezing teary eyes and general unpleasantness.
Ginger
Flavor: 2/10
TH: 4/10
Vapor: 3/10
I am starting with my least favorite here. I thought it'd be nicer to work towards the ones I liked. To me, this really lacked any discernible flavor. It was extremely acidic and just not very good, IMHO. Vapor was lacking, flavor was iffy, and I found this to be very bitter in general. I'm sorry to not be able to provide a more thorough review of this, but there just wasn't enough flavor for me to comment on further.
Clove:
Flavor: 4/10
TH: 4/10
Vapor: 5/10
This flavor was okay. If you smoked clove cigarettes, this is definitely not a good approximation. The flavor was more comparable to real cloves, but for me it was missing the darkness and spicyness real cloves have. This was light, sweet, and just not an overwhelming remarkable flavor. Would I buy it again? No. Was it bad? No.
Vanilla:
Flavor: 3/10
TH: 5/10
Vapor: 4/10
Not much flavor here either. Not strong on vanilla, or anything else. Slightly sweet, not bad, just didn't taste like vanilla or much of anything again. Certainly not unpleasant, but if you really like vanilla I would try something else.
Chocolate:
Flavor: 6/10
TH: 5/10
Vapor 6/10
Okay, here we go. This was nice. The first taste is sort of like semisweet/bittersweet chocolate, but it does fade quick. Slightly acidic and a bite of an unnatural aftertaste, but not bad. The TH on this one was definitely more than the others, and certainly more pronounced on a manual batt. I'm actually really looking forward to trying to mix this (perhaps with raspberry, or strawberry?).
RY4:
Flavor 7/10
TH: 5/10
Vapor: 5/10
I really love this RY4. It's not very tobacco-y, but the aftertaste is something like flue-cured or perhaps a light cigarette. The taste while vaping is very carmelcentric with strong hints of vanilla. It's a very "warm" taste, and I find this to be wonderful with a good cup of coffee. Definitely my favorite flavor of the pack; very pleasant.
So... not my favorite sampler, but probably worth checking out if you like these flavors. I have a BIG shipment coming from Juicy Vapor and I can't wait to review them! I hope you all find this helpful... best of luck. Once again, big fan of ELPs fruit flavors, though. I strongly recommend trying their watermelon, raspberry and strawberry juices.
