Vapemail Special!

Last week I ordered a bunch of juice because I've been vaping like a fiend and was going through a good chunk of my stockpile. I decided to try a vanilla and coffee flavor from Viking Vapor, some fruity blends from Rawr Vapor and some of my favorites from FuZion Vapor. I also got an extra special present from my good buddy Shane from FuZion which included a t-shirt, gold foil sticker and a bottle of an unreleased flavor (thanks buddy!) I've also been giving out small bottles of juice to my fellow vapers since I now have a stockpile of empty bottles. Furthermore, I've decided to only purchase bigger bottles of my favorite flavors and on occasion try some new flavors in smaller bottles and share my favs with the masses. If you would like a sample of something I have, send me an email and cover the cost of shipping and ill send you some juice: photoagogostudio@yahoo.com

Viking Vapor
I haven't tried a lot from Viking, but their juice is pretty good. Not the best, not the worst, somewhere in between. Previously, I tried their peach flavor which tasted like peach rings you get from the convenience store for 2/$1 which isn't actually a bad thing. The vanilla is very sweet and would be a good addition to a tobacco flavor if you like to do some custom mixing. Since I got it, it has darkened up quite a bit and I expect it to taste stronger when it has fully steeped. The coffee flavor is decent. When you order, they tell you to put how you like your coffee in the comments section and they will custom mix it to your taste. I'm a simple man and I like my coffee with cream and sugar so that's what I put and what I got was not exactly what I expected but it was ok. Not as sweet or smooth as I was hoping but it's still enjoyable on occasion. I wouldn't recommend vaping this with your morning coffee seeing as how it doesn't match up as well as I thought it would. Nevertheless, for $10 for a 30ml, how can you go wrong?

Rawr Vapor
I love love LOVE their custom mixes and customer creations and, as you all know, I love juice with weird names which Rawr is practically known for. I purchased BaZingah, Sweet Dreams, Strawberry Cantaloupe, AuRAWRa, Dawn of Truth and Strapple. BaZingah is a nice watermelon tropical mix, Sweet Dreams is pretty much strawberry kiwi with a weird name, AuRAWRa is a sweet kiwi pineapple with menthol, Dawn of Truth is tropical banana and coconut and Strapple is strawberry apple. So far, I have not had a bad flavor from Rawr, although Sweet Dreams and Strawberry Cantaloupe could use a bit of a flavor boost. Then again, I usually don't have Rawr's juices long enough to properly steep. Plus if you're a menthol lover, Mike offers a free menthol add on to ANY of his juice!

FuZion Vapor
I've been a fuzionhead for some time now and Shane is constantly blowing me away with some of his flavor combinations and overall quality of his juice. I ordered Chuck Norris Blood, Purple Pieman and Endless Summer plus he sent me a bottle of Doom Berry in a care package (thanks again buddy!) Purple Pieman has now stolen the top spot on my favorite e-juice list, with XTC and Unicorn Blood in a close second. I haven't had the 15ml I ordered for more than a week and it's already almost gone. Chuck Norris Blood never disappoints, smooth and sweet strawberry with a subtle hint of white chocolate. Endless Summer (strawberry lemonade) could use a flavor boost and I plan on choosing that option when ordering my next batch but still a great winter pick-me-up. The new flavor, Doom Berry, reminded me of Halloween as a kid opening up a box of Good N' Plenty's. I was baffled by the name for a while so I had to shoot Shane an email to find out what it was supposed to taste like. He said it was his take on another popular flavor with hints of berry and anise. I haven't fully tested this juice but I  will say, for someone that's not a big licorice fan, I find this juice rather enjoyable. I look forward to filling up a tank of this stuff.

Do you look forward to getting vapemail as much as I do? What are some of your favorite juice vendors? Let me know in the comments below!

First Impressions of Clone Blood & Unicorn Blood

These two came to me courtesy of Shane at Fuzion Vapor for testing purposes and review. Shane has always been good to me and all his loyal customers allowing them to try juices he makes before they're officially released on his website. If you ever have a question or a special request he quickly responds with a personalized message, unlike some other sites that have a 'ticket' system that takes days to get an answer from. Of these two juices, Unicorn Blood has been released on his site and Clone Blood is still in testing but I imagine it will be out very soon. Ever since my first Fuzion experience, I've been hooked. To this day I'm a dedicated "fuzionhead," the flavor combinations and vitamin B added really makes them worth their weigh in liquid gold! Please note; the following review is based on my opinions without letting either steep. I simply opened my vapemail and took a puff, I'm sure these juices will get even better after I let them sit for a few days.


Unicorn Blood
This one really reminds me of my first experience with my favorite juice of all time, XTC. After the first pull, I was hooked. About 10 minutes after taking the first puff, I had to order a 30ml because I knew this would soon be on my top 10 list. The best way I can describe this delightful flavor is pure Slushee syrup before they mix in the ice. Super sweet to the core with delightful hints of red berries and candy. It's perfect for a post Halloween vape, like taking all the fruity candy you have and shoving it in your mouth at the same time. The nearly sickly sweetness of this is my favorite part, as a candy junkie, I find this to serve as a great fix. In my order, I asked Shane to add a hint of menthol to my 30ml which should make it even more enjoyable for the fruit/menthol lover I am. While vaping this I kept thinking about the video of Charlie the Unicorn and his adventure to candy mountain. If you have an addictive personality, beware, this juice will have you wanting to hunt down the mythical beast and drain it of all its vital fluid!

Clone Blood
As with many of the juices I try for review purposes, I first attempt to figure out what flavor the vendor is going for before I check the website to see what it's supposed to taste like. Unfortunately for me, this one is unreleased so I have no basis of comparison. So based on my own expertise and refined palette for vape juice, I found this one to have almost a nutty flavor with a hint of bourbon with a sweet and dry finish. After filling up my atty a few times, I decided to email Shane to give him my first impression and what I thought it tasted like. He then replied and said it's supposed to taste like similar to a juice from another vendor with a similar Star Wars referencing name. Everyone seems to love the flavor that this is based on but I have yet to try it. I'll give you a hint, it's a variation of a tobacco flavor that's full of bounty. I've had limited experience with tobacco flavors and the ones I have tried, I haven't enjoyed very much but this one has some very nice hints of sweetness to it and has a decent bite from the bourbon flavor. I look forward to seeing other peoples take on this one and I plan on purchasing the popular juice that this one is named after for comparison.

I'll let these sit for a while and report back with any changes in flavor and the final verdict on Clone Blood. Shane, if you're reading this, keep up the good work, We appreciate all your hard work, dedication and love of the vaping community. Thanks!

Juice of the Week- XTC

They say the letter X stimulates the brain in curious ways. I'm not sure if that's true but this juice certainly does. Coming from one of my favorite vendors, FuZion Vapor, this juice is by far an all day vape (ADV) for me. A strong hit of berries followed by a nice sweet cream all "infuzed" with a ton of vitamin B12. When I received my first 6ml bottle of this, I vaped it all day straight until it was gone and then reordered a 30ml!

When I vape this juice, it makes me want to dance around like a maniac with glow sticks and stay up all night. (results may vary) Probably one of the sweetest juices in my collection with a very strong flavor. I love vaping this one at high voltage, usually 5.5v with a 2.5ohm cartomizer on my ProVari or V-Tube. I'm sure it would be just as enjoyable on an eGo with a LR dual coil tank.

The disclaimer on the website says it all:
"For disclosure purposes, your personal vaporizer should NOT be used as a glow-stick and spun around.  However, feel free to fist pump to the beat and hug everyone you see."
This is a MUST vape if you enjoy a smooth sweet juice with a great throat hit and tons of flavor!
