Just wanted to start a thread for reviews on the juices done by @Troll Brothers Elixirs .
Here is another juice blender coming in at a lower price point. This immediately appeals to the stingy old man in my blood, and is something that I like to see happening. But I'm not here to get into the stuff regarding pricing of juice, let's just vape them already!
I tested all of these juices in a Cerabis 44, a 0.5ohm ceramic coil, between 40 to 60 Watts.
All juices were 3mg, will update with the PG:VG ratio once verified!
Solaris
Website Description:
"Custard Tart Infused with Lifeblood of Apple."
What I Got:
Very good juice! This one is a well balanced mixture custard, apple, and a hint of cinnamon to top it all off. Tastes exactly like a baked apple pudding covered in custard, if my mother knew I vaped I would totally get her to try this, it would blow her mind at how close it is to the pudding I grew up with!
Not too sweet, and relatively subtle. But very, VERY tasty. Well impressed with the Solaris!
Galena
Website Description:
"Creamed Strawberry Tincture in a Solution of Milkshake."
What I Got:
A different take on a strawberry milkshake IMO. Galena is not your normal strawberry milkshake that usually is interpreted by my head as Nesquick, but for me it was a bit more like a strawberry pudding. Nice and smooth, with a hint of complexity that tastes a bit like biscuits to me, hence the pudding reference. Not really a fan of creamier vapes like this, but I did manage to work my way through the bottle quite quickly!
Sweet Vitriol
Website Description:
"Purified Honey in a Ripe Melon Solution.
What I Got:
I have a strong aversion to honey vapes, and I expected to leave this one off the tasting list. When I gave it a sniff, it actually smelled very good, so because I’m crazy, I threw caution into the wind and gave it a bash. Turns out that there was no need to be worried, and it is actually very tasty, it is a nice refreshing melon, with a tiny little hint of honey. Nice and sweet, and pretty well-suited for a hot day in Durban! This little ditty also goes really well with an ice cold beer, and I would love to try it with a dash of mint, YUM!
Vermillion
Website Description:
"Distilled Essence of Summer Fruit."
What I Got:
Nice and fruity! Fruitier than a man with a pink mod! I initially picked up a lot of pineapple, and some strawberry, MAYBE some apple or grape? There were a few hidden things I couldn’t pick up. I then realised that I had tasted something similar before, another juice that is very similar. It tastes a lot like a creamy strawberry favourite of mine, but with a dash of pineapple. Once I had made this comparison in my head however, I battled to taste anything else but the strawberry, with a squeeze of pine, but still very nice.
Aqua Vitae
Website Description:
"Concentrated Tropical Fruit and Twice Distilled Menthol."
What I Got:
The Aqua Vitae one was on the top of my “too try” list. Cool fruits are the top of the charts to me, and I’m on a mission to find more that I like! There are many fruits in this one, and trying to pin down individual flavours was almost impossible for me. The fruits to me represent a good summer basket, and not overly sweet (in the candy sense), but a good representation of genuine fruit. Sometimes I tasted apples, sometimes mango, or maybe litchis, with some pineapple or grapes? One thing I do know is that the menthol strength is right on the money for me! Not too harsh, and not too subtle, once again the Trolls nailed that!
Orpiment
Website Description:
"Quintessence of Menthol and Powdered Peppermint."
What I Got:
Orpiment one is essentially a cool mint. So if you imagine a mint sweet, maybe like those chewy ones people keep feeding me (it has me concerned in all honesty that they do this), then this one is pretty much as close as you get. A relatively simple flavour, but done well. It is not overly minty or too sweet, I think they got it right in the middle. Because of this, I think this one could work well as an ADV for many!
Got the sample pack of juices from www.trollbrothers.co.za . R180 is a great price for 60mls of good juice. Even better, they have some specials going on (check out their subforum)!

Luck of the draw meant that Vermillion is the first one to get locked and loaded, I'll check out the Solaris next! If you're almost through your first bottle I'm hoping it's something I can look forward to?
Im just a keyboard ninja so here goes.
. As a noob I finally figured out what a sweet spot is referred to I think.
Back to the drawing Board and will edit my review when Done tasting the Sweet Vitriol and Aqua!
