"Krucial" Strawberry Margarita review

TL;DR: if you like fruity flavours, or find yourself bored of strawberry, give this a try.

I've been vaping this for a solid week now and haven't found myself getting olifactory fatigue or becoming bored of the flavour at all. I'd describe it as a virgin strawberry Margarita that's been sitting in the sun (just because the lack of coolant). It's sweet, fruity, and unique. The first solid ADV I've ever had.

Testing was done on multiple coils, including Vaporesso CCell ceramic coils (0.5ohm 25w) and ni80 4 core fused claptons (0.18ohm 90w)

Steeped: 0 days, true SnV

Sweet syrupy strawberry upfront, complimented by a sweet lime on the exhale. After vaping nothing but this for over a week, I've noticed a ton of "off-flavours" that actually go very well with the 3-strawberry blend. Some of these flavours include spearmint, chocolate, and pineapple. These flavours may or may not be present, I believe it's just my mind playing tricks on me.

Flavour Notes

TFA strawberry, TPA strawberry (ripe), CAP sweet strawberry - these three strawberry flavours together create a realistic tasting strawberry syrup. They perfectly compliment eachother. I imagine they would work as a base for other fruits.

FW Blood Orange & FA Lime Cold Pressed - These two flavourings compliment eachother to create a lime flavour, with the rind. The bitterness of BO at 1.5% tastes like a generic citrus rind, and with the added lime it turns into a delicious lime.

I chose not to add any Ethyl Maltol as suggested in the original recipe as the three strawberry flavours contain EM already and there were comments about the strawberry tasting muted.

Instead, I used Rick's Sugar Daddy sweetener. It's the best sweetner I've used. I go with 1g of sweetner per 30ml when I'm mixing by weight but add sweetner to taste. Remember, sweetner is like salt to food, only add it if you feel it needs it.

Other Notes

This juice is very enjoyable. For me, being able to vape something for this long is pretty unbelievable. I normally switch flavours at least once a day. Lately I've been finding myself mixing up another big bottle before I even run out.

I actually have all of these flavors, and your description of it sounds delicious. I'll mix this up soon!

Not sure if I'll use EM as recipe suggested, but if I'm also afraid of flavor muting do you think CAP SS would work?

Not too sure actually, I've only ever used EM, TFA sweetener, and Rick's Sugar Daddy. I'd try it without sweetener first if all you've got is SS because SS contains Citric Acid which also has a reputation for muting flavours.

No problem! Comment your thoughts when you try it. I personally can't get enough of it

Next time I mix some up I'm gonna try out TFA Champagne in it at 0.5 to add a bit of alcohol flavour so it's more realistic

W...wait a minute... 19% flavors!? Whaaaaaat? That being said, the recipe looks good. But damn that's a lot of flavoring.

I was hesitant to try it out at first solely because it's got 19% flavour but it's really amazing. It's not overpowering at all. Even with constant chainvaping while I'm watching Netflix the flavour still shines.

I highly recommend it! It's definitely made its way into my rotation. I've basically reserved my subohm tanks for this mix since it's so nice and I don't have to worry about vapor tongue when I'm out and about

The CAP and TFA strawberries are fairly weak and are what drive up the overall flavor percentage. TFA Strawberry Sweet practically cancels itself out in everything because of its Maltol content.

1.5% Blood Orange (FW)

2% Lime Cold Pressed (FA)

5% Strawberry (TPA)

4% Strawberry (ripe) (TFA)

4% Sweet Strawberry (CAP)

Add sweetner/koolada to taste, I prefer both at 1.5%

I don't count 19% flavoring?? Looks like 16.5% to me. What did I miss?

Sweetner/EM is the missing 1.5%
