Recently V4L announced the release of two new flavors, the smiling special cigar in medium and full flavor. Smilin sir has been working on these for a bit now, I got to try the first samples back in February of this year. Mine arrived yesterday, and all morning I've been testing and using the medium flavor (will try the full tomorrow). Without further introduction-


Wow Smilin special cigar medium-

Will first touch up on the physical aspects of the juice. Judging on viscosity will put this at a 80/20-75/25 pg/vg ratio. Vapor production supports that theory. It's a dark brown colored juice, very much the color of a cigar. As for taste (which as always keep in mind is subjective) this is easily one of the closest mimics to a cigar thus far. It has a very robust tobacco taste, with a strong throat hit. The kicker though is the one aspect it has that most cigar flavorings lack, that numbing peppery sensation in your mouth. This by no means a juice for anyone who isn't a fan of cigars. As for how it's affected by voltage/wattage with a single coil- at 3 watts it's almost tame juice. The tobacco flavor while still robust loses some of the depth. The extra kick also goes away almost entirely. At 6w the flavors start to wake up along with the peppery taste. At 9w and above you truly get the cigar experience. Again this juice isn't for the faint of heart. Was able to get it to 11.5w on a single coil before I called it quits, wasn't that the juice scorched, it just became too harsh even for me. In a dual coil got to that level at 10.8w. All in all, when it comes to cigar authenticity it hits right on the mark.

Up next will be the full flavor smiling special cigar.

Wow Smilin special cigar full-

Will first touch up on the physical aspects of the juice. Judging on viscosity and flow rate will put this at 75/25-70/30 pg/vg range. Vapor production is very close to that of the medium, so it's thickness could be the result of it's flavorings. It's a darker cigar brown than its brother, which makes sense considering the flavor is much more concentrated. As for the flavor.... If you're not a cigar fan you will not like this juice. You want a full bodied cigar, this delivers. An edging on overwhelming tobacco taste, very strong throat and mouth hit, along with that numbing peppery sensation it's brother shares. Reminds me a lot of a Romeo Y Julieta. There is a drawback though, mimics a cigar too well. Had to vape this like a cigar, not like a cigarette. As for how it's affected by voltage/wattage with a single coil- Even at 3 watts this juice will hit like a brick for those not prepared. Highest I got to before tapping out was 8.5 watts. In a dual coil had to call it quits at 7 watts. This juice gives exactly what it advertises.
