Went down south a couple blocks tonight and dropped into Synergy Vapor Labs. Along with an eGo Mini battery and a new 306 atty, I picked up two new Synergy Vapor flavors to try. Here's my initial review -- initial meaning that, again, I just picked these up tonight, so there's no steeping involved yet. (At least not on my end, not sure if/how much steeping these juices do in the store.) I'm also adding Appearance to the review, for those who are interested. Final prefatory note: I'm running these juices in a Cisco-spec 510 LR atty on an eGo-C 1000mAh passthrough battery.
First up:
Cool Tropic Fruit (The ratio is a guess on my part, but I recall hearing 50/50 mentioned. 24mg)
A: Light copper color, doesn't appear to be too thick. Nimble in the bottle and doesn't leave much film behind.
N: Not quite Juicy Fruit, not quite Hawai'ian Punch. Notes of both, plus a light menthol note.
V: Good and thick. Not fog machine territory, but closer to that than to an analog.
T: Not as strong as I get from their tobacco flavors, but solid and satisfying.
F: This is where this one really lights up the board. In contrast to the nose, the flavor is Hawai'ian Punch and menthol all the way. And that menthol is strong. This isn't a fruit flavor with a menthol afterthought -- this is menthol with a fruit base.
Overall: If you're looking for something light on a hot summer's day, or if you're usually all about tobacco flavors but want the occasional palate refresh like I sometimes do, this is a go-to refreshment.
Next:
Cafe (24mg)
A: Dark Rust in color. I'm not sure if it's just the darker color or if it's genuinely the body, but this one looks to be thicker. Nimble in the bottle like Cool Tropic Fruit, but this one leaves a more noticeable clear film that rolls back into the body fairly quickly.
N: First pot of coffee of the morning. This juice is true to its name.
V: Not suitable for stealthing, unless you can hold your breath for about ten minutes. Serious vapor production from this juice.
T: Rock solid, to the point that it borders on harsh. Those who like it lighter may want this in an 18mg or even a 12.
F: Synergy just flat nailed the flavor of coffee with this juice. And I do mean coffee -- black coffee. This isn't a dessert coffee, this is steaming black go-juice in a thick-walled mug coffee coffee.
Overall: If you're the kind of guy or gal who likes a straight-up cuppa Joe with none of the foofy la-la, this juice is going to knock your socks off. At 24mg, the flavor, the throat hit and the vapor on this stuff all mean business.
I don't see Cool Tropic Fruit becoming an all day vape for me -- but I can definitely see it as a daily vape, if you can dig the distinction. And I'm definitely the kind of person Cafe is or should be aimed at. All day vape? Probably not. But it'll also be a daily vape.
