MY EXPERIENCE & OPINION YMMV

To be read as if told by the late Macho Man Randy Savage, Hulk Hogan, or the Ultimate Warrior himself:

IT'S SO ULTIMATE DUDE, I HAVE TO USE CAPS THROUGH THE WHOLE REVIEW BECUZ OF THE ULTIMATENESS. ULTIMATELY ITS ULTIMATE!

YES THERE'S AN X INSTEAD OF AN S. I'M PRETTY SURE ANDREA KNOWS HOW TO SPELL IT. PRETTY SURE, ALMOST ULTIMATELY SURE THATS HOW SURE.

IT'S AN OUTWARD PLAY ON SPELLING OF THE EXTREME ULTIMATENESS INSIDE THE ULTIMATE BLUE BOTTLE THAT JUST CANNOT BE CONTAINED WITH A SIMPLE ULTIMATE S!

Alright, enough of that. Im just playing around but its a darn good flavor like the French Roast. Not burnt coffee flavor. Tastes real. buy it if you want a good coffee/espresso flavor....and the French Roast, I think I like this better, ULTIMATELY.

Use code summer juice for 20% off.

Yeah... i still complained though ;-) She had a great sense of humor about it. what can I say... it's my pet peeve...

Ogre... thanks... your reviews did prompt me to fill some cartos and atties with some plume room... they are a unique vendor...

I made 2 buys recently...

BTW, The turkish was quite unique... pretty sweet... not like any other I have tried...

OK, so I cracked open my new bottle of Ultimate Expresso from ThePlumeRoom (after letting it steep for a week), filled an Ultimate CE2 clearo, and gave it a go.

I've had coffee vapes that my taste buds/palate/nose/brain rejected after a single toke. Lots of them, in fact. I might vape these lousy coffee juices for a couple minutes, but then they get relegated to Juice Purgatory and rarely get a reprieve later.

My reaction to the first toke of Ultimate Expresso was, "Well, this is a contender." After another couple minutes of vaping, I was wondering "How can such an obviously well-crafted coffee juice have such a mysterious flavor?"

When I vape BWB Espresso or Cappuccino, or CopperCreek Coffee, my brain tells me that the flavor is not the same as but definitely related to the actual cappuccinos I make for myself twice each day, and in a good way. See, I'm a coffee geek---I have a prosumer set-up (with an Expobar Brewtus II PID-controlled double-boiler and a Baratza Vario grinder), I buy gourmet green beans from around the world (and know what the differences are), and I roast all my beans at home in my Behmor 1600 dedicated roaster. In short, I know what I'm talking about when it comes to coffee, at least compared to most other vapers.

Vaping ThePlumeRoom's Ultimate Expresso is a little different. My brain says, "Good juice. Worth vaping. But what are those other flavors in the recipe that---while interesting---are so different from the coffee you make each day for yourself?"

This, along with ogredog's review of ThePlumeRoom's French Roast and Cream, makes me think that Andrea is one heck of an artisan juicemaster in her choice of flavorings and mixing skills, as well as someone who appreciates the subtlety of different coffee flavors.

Given its slight oddness, I can't say that Ultimate Expresso will dethrone BWB Espresso as my favorite coffee vape, but it won't get relegated to Juice Purgatory, either. Good job, Andrea!

A sweet little lady way out there in the desert of Phoenix sent me some Plume Room samples to try.

We all know that e-juice flavors are going to depend a lot on the tastes of the individual and I'm no different.

But like billherbst I think I have a superior sense of taste and smell and consider myself an expert on fine wines. I enjoy the very best WallysMart has to offer in cardboard boxes and when I can find it I always buy Red Truck Stop, Writer’s Block Lake County Grenache and Fess Parker Frontier Red. You can easily see I know my wines.

E-juice is another matter. I have a friend who DIY's and I just happen to click with her e-juice and seldom venture away from her offerings. I've been vaping for two and a half years and I think I have tried all the major e-juice suppliers in this time.

So I'm sitting out tropical storm Isaac and trying out various Plume Room samples on an Ikenvape i06 atty 2.5Ω, Ikenvape SR Cannon V2 2.5Ω atty, bottom coil Phoenix carto and IKV Fusion ... at between 3.7v and 4.5v on a Buzz Pro.

Please keep in mind that this my analysis and mine alone. There's no sense in arguing with me about it because anything I don't care for you are probably going to love and I really hope you do. The world isn't ready for two people with my likes and dislikes.

First, I like the blue glass bottles, Very classy and it gives the juice great protection from sunlight. The black labels on the blue bottles are very difficult to read for an old man like me. That can be improved on.

Summer Peach ... this should appeal to me because I like fruit flavors, especially peach. But I found this to be "perfumey" and I'm going to stop at saying I just didn't like it.

Vanilla Caramel ... it tastes burnt. But I've never tried a Vanilla Caramel from anywhere that didn't taste burnt, so maybe that's the way its supposed to be. Not for me.

Magic Melon Medley ... now we're getting somewhere. This is pretty good and just as the name implies, it has a great marriage of some nice melon flavors.

Creamy Chai ... I've worked in India and have sat and drank chai with the locals. Chai is a blend of teas and spices and this comes very close to the flavor of the real thing. I like "creamy" juices so the combination was perfect for me and I enjoyed this juice a lot.

But then I hit on the best one! Toasted Turkish Twist. Its a sweet, robust, Turkish tobacco flavor and I really liked this one. I've spent many years in the Middle East and north Africa and have sat and smoked Turkish tobacco in hook-ah's in many places. This juice really hit home with me and I think I liked it best in an IKV Fusion at 4.3v on my Buzz. You need to try this one if you like tobacco flavors! Excellent!

I still have three more Plume Room e-juices to try and will probably give you my thoughts on those a little later. I don't know what the PG/VG mix is on these juices, but they all give a thick cloud of vapor that will make you look like one of those reviewers on You-Tube and the flavor really bursts through in the vapor.

Andrea is going to be a super-star in the world of e-juice!
