CRAFT VAPES E-LIQUID FROM WWW.VIVDVAPES.CO.UK



I've been sent ten Craft vapes E-liquids for the purpose of review by the very kind team at Vivd vapes, which is run by a great guy called Tony, who says:-


 "After being a smoker for 35 years I took up vaping 2 ½ years ago and have not looked back. I then found that finding an e-liquid that matched my needs was very frustrating, and having spent many hours and much money buying e liquids that simply didn't deliver, on price, taste, vapour production and quality,I decided to set up this website and search out premium quality hand made juices from the USA.
I am now importing what I believe to be a top quality product, handmade in small batches all ingredients FDA approved and UK CHIP compliant. There will not be masses of juices here, only juices that pass our tests on flavour, vapour production, ingredients and value for money."


CRAFT VAPES

Craft Vapes is a Los Angeles based company founded in 2013.

 "Our quality e-Juice has been meticulously hand crafted to the highest of standards to produce flavours for every taste and occasion. After personal success in switching from tobacco smoking to vaping and experiencing the easy transition and instant benefits, our co-founders came together to share that experience and produce quality e-Juices for our customers. We embrace the small batch, hand crafted philosophy in every bottle of e-Juice. 



Our proprietary two stage flavoring and aging process insures that our e-Liquid is packed with as much flavor as possible so that it tastes great the day it arrives. Whether you're a seasoned Vaper or just making the leap to e-Liquid, Craft Vapes has a flavor for you. All of our ingredients are made in the USA, responsibly sourced and FDA approved." 


I'm going to be reviewing three of the E-liquids in this review (with the rest to follow) the flavours are.


  1. Pipe tobacco
  2. Rum punch
  3. Winterberry


PIPE TOBACCO 12MG 70/30 PG/VG

"Our Pipe Tobacco e-Liquid is sweet, aromatic and floral. Reminiscent of classic pipe tobaccos that your granddad smoked"

The bottle features a child safety cap, clear warnings and ingredient list, nicotine strength and vivd vapes address it however doesn't feature the PG/VG ratios although all craft vapes E-liquid are 70/30 PG/VG ratios.

I vaped this E-liquid on a mini dripping atomiser with a 1.2ohm coil and cotton wick with a Joyetech evic at 11w.

On opening the bottle your greeted to a fantastic smell of classic pipe tobacco with hints of vanilla.

The liquid it's self is a rich dark amber colour and a 70/30 PG/VG blend which totally suitable to vape on any clearomiser or cartomiser set-up.

On Taking my first vape I was Instantly greeted with the aromatic flavour of pipe tobacco with hints of vanilla and honey which gives a wonderful sweetness to the whole experience, giving a nice smooth throat hit.
On the exhale, there is a definite floral flavour which finishes this great flavour off beautifully.

Vapour production is great, producing lots of vapour, although this could be down to my set-up, the aroma is a aromatic pipe tobacco smell.

Overall I've enjoyed this E-liquid very much, makes me want a pipe mod to fully appreciate the pipe vaping experience. 

Flavour 9/10
Throat Hit 7/10
Vapour production 8/10
Overall 8/10


RUM PUNCH 12MG 70/30 PG/VG

"Who doesn't like a cocktail while sunning on the beach? Rum Punch e-Liquid is just that, the compliment to sunny days and crashing surf. It is a blend of coconut, pineapple, rum and maraschino cherry flavors"

The bottle features a child safety cap, clear warnings and ingredient list, nicotine strength and vivd vapes address it however doesn't feature the PG/VG ratios although all craft vapes E-liquid are 70/30 PG/VG ratios.

I vaped this E-liquid on a mini dripping atomiser with a 1.2ohm coil and cotton wick with a Joyetech evic at 11w.

On opening the bottle your greeted to a fantastic smell of coconut and pineapple with hints of cherry

The liquid it's self is a light yellow colour and a 70/30 PG/VG blend which totally suitable to vape on any clearomiser or cartomiser set-up.

This E-liquid has a great summer feel and is a near perfect piƱa colada flavour, you'll get the sweetness of the coconut rum on the inhale which soon turns to sweet juicy pineapple with a cocktail cherry finish for the exhale.

Vapour production is great, producing lots of vapour, although this could be down to my set-up, the aroma is sweet coconut.

Overall I was very happy with the flavour, coconut vapes can be a bit "hit and miss" sometimes being too strong or overpowering, this one however is a perfect balance of all the flavours, leaving you wanting more, an all day vape that will have you dreaming of a nice hot beach far away!

Flavour 9/10
Throat Hit 7/10
Vapour production 8/10
Overall 8/10

WINTERBERRY 12MG 70/30 PG/VG

"We took a cool approach to our berry blend. Winter Berry e-Liquid is crafted with blueberry, raspberry, and boysenberry flavours to give an upfront berry flavour with a smooth and cool throat hit"

The bottle features a child safety cap, clear warnings and ingredient list, nicotine strength and vivd vapes address it however doesn't feature the PG/VG ratios although all craft vapes E-liquid are 70/30 PG/VG ratios.

I vaped this E-liquid on a mini dripping atomiser with a 1.2ohm coil and cotton wick with a Joyetech evic at
11w.

On opening the bottle your greeted to a sweet smell of raspberry's and blueberry's.

The liquid it's self is a bright yellow colour and a 70/30 PG/VG blend which totally suitable to vape on any clearomiser or cartomiser set-up.

Taking my first vape of this E-liquid actually caught me off guard, you'll be getting a very nice fresh raspberry, blackberry and blueberry flavour, now here's the part that threw me as it has a hint of mint in there too, giving a nice cooling sensation to the throat hit.

Vapour production is great, producing lots of vapour, although this could be down to my set-up, the aroma is a lovely wild berry fragrance.

Overall: Winterberry got me thinking that it would be a cinnamon and berry vape for some reason?? it's a fantastic flavour, I'm not really a fan of blueberry flavours as they are more often than not very perfume like, this however is a nice natural berry flavour with a great minty twist.

Flavour 9/10
Throat Hit 7/10
Vapour production 8/10
Overall 8/10

  1. Great reviews, as always. I think these Craft Juices are something really rather special. The first 2 I tried were just not to my taste but I could still tell that they were well blended and balanced, good quality liquids. About to try Winter Berry and have my fingers crossed because I really want to find at least one of these to my taste. They're special juices and would recommend anyone to try. (Ladyvape)

  2. Thank you Ros, they certainly are great juices I'm currently loving pipe tobacco and I wasn't really a tobacco vape person, this has changed my outlook on tobacco vapes.
