Time for a quick look at some RY4's then (and it will be quick as neither juices are especially exciting I'm afraid)
Tested on a Reo Grand + Mini at 3.7 on 510 cisco 1.8 LR attys:
E-Cig Wizards standard 'Wiz Mix' RY4, 16mg PG:
Ecig wizard sell some pretty interesting juices, though Ive never really paid too much attention to their 'own brand' stuff, favoring more their exotic lines in pink spot or freedom smoke USA stuff instead. Wiz-Mix is not made locally at ecig wizard and is a generic Chinese mix of unknown origin. This disclaimer is also present on their site about 'wiz-mix' juices:
Our flavor of standard e-liquids may vary from batch to batch due to the scale of production on the standard e-liquid products
In other words, what i experience here might not be your own!
Its a typically pale gold color, almost opaque and being PG based isn't particularly viscus or thick. There is almost no smell whatsoever to this juice, save for a vaguely chemical cleanliness to it which i can't quite identify. thankfully there is no actual chemical taste to the juice itself on vape. Its a strong tobacco mix this with a surprisingly hefty throat hit for a 16mg mix. Heavy tobacco meets a subtle caramel to soften the experience on the exhale but is soon replaced with a raw pepper hotness. There is no vanilla i can perceive here.
Its not an especially good (or really bad) RY4 this, its generic in almost every sense, it lacks the flourish and sourness of a Dekang or Janty and doesn't stand out enough from a multitude of other generic branded RY4 to really be worth considering over other, much more interesting variants. Vaper production isn't too bad for a PG only mix, though its thin and unsatisfying for the most part. Worth considering for the strong tobacco variant fans amongst you, (its also largely inexpensive) but other wise theres better juices out there. Reminds me quite a lot of liberty flights generic RY4 (unmodified) like that juice, it's nothing special really.
Next up:
Totally Wicked patriot range RY4, 18mg PG only (i think, TW irritatingly never really tell you this info)
The Patriot Range at TW is their USA sourced only line of juices. I'd never previously noticed they did an RY4 (though thats prob just me not really paying much attention!) and as a bit of a fan of some of their Titan and Red label tobacco lines i thought I'd see how it compared.
Its a brownish yellow like liquid, tobacco strong in smell with a sweetness too from the evident caramel. This, like the wiz mix above is also another strong tobacco variant. Its all about the tobacco and fans of TW's Marlboro juices will recognize that tobacco as a milder, softer version of that. As a result of the strong tobacco base, theirs a classic TW nuttiness to this mix, possibly peanut, though not over powering enough to flood everything else. The caramel belongs to a slightly burnt honey variation and is on the subtle background of this juice, it doesn't linger enough to really blend with that strong nutty tobacco to really highlight this mix however.
Oddly i do get vanilla too from this, it's there on the high notes, a slight lingering sweetness on the mouth before being lost to an almighty throat hit. I found this 18mg (what i normally vape) unusually strong, both in TH and lingering pepper heat on the tongue.
Overall its an OK RY4, I'd happily vape this stuff, but i doubt I'd buy another bottle once this one is done. Its expensive (as TW tends to be) and its not quite special enough to be considered over a decent Dekang, Janty or ENjuice mix IMO. Still, its not bad as a strong tobacco variant of RY4, something of which here in the UK i found previously a little lacking and then two came along at once!
Next up (when i find the time) a look at the titan RY4-3 and the Janty neo and some Janty elixir (again!)
