What up vapefam!
SirRisc returns with another juicy review! Are you getting tired of that intro yet? Neither am I!
On todays menu are a selected couple of flavors from VapourDepot, straight from the UK!
Not your average flavors mind you, but a couple of tasty drinks and deserts at very fair prices!
Premise.

VapourDepot is recent discovery for me, but when I saw they had Irn Bru eliquid my curiosity immediately got the best of me.
They source their base (VG, PG and nicotine) from the UK, and about three quarters of their flavorings from the US.
From there on they mix their flavorings meticulously, and make their juice to order.
This doesn’t mean you will receive juice that still needs to age, it’s pretty much ready to vape once you get it but it does get better with age.
They ship internationally but you’re best to have a look at their shipping page to make sure, for any of the countries listed there they charge a flat rate of £4 (or approximately $6.33)
Besides their own brand of eliquids they also distribute Juicy Ohms eliquids and a myriad of hardware, and DIY supplies like cotton and Kanthal.
Onne small flaw I found with their liquids, or rather with their packaging is that the bottles are too hard to squeeze.
I dislike bottles that hard to squeeze, I like squeezing soft things. (Get your mind out of the gutter!)
The labels however look fairly nice, and despite being a relatively simple logo I quite appreciate the look of it all.

It’s all in the name, simply divine.
My review:
Scent: Raw cookie dough with a slight hint of vanilla
Color: Amber with a light pink/brown hue
Taste: It’s pretty much what it says o the label, a raw cookie dough with a slight hint of vanilla.
The flavor is rather subtle but the sweetness definitely isn’t subtle. It’s actually rather in-your-face, if you’ll pardon the pun there.
I’d rather have it a bit more flavorul and less sweet, but I reckon others may disagree on that. After all cookie dough is very sweet in itself…
I’m still undecided whether I like this liquid or not, but however much I’d love to hate it I just can’t seem to put it down.
It gives me a feeling of nostalgia. Right in the feels, man!

Have you ever tasted the rainbow? Well now you can, and it tastes awesome!
My review:
Scent: A tart candy and fruit mix, reminiscent of winegums
Color: Clear without coloration
Taste: RAINBOWS! UNICORNS! THIS IS SPARTAAAAA!!!
ahem Sorry about that, I may have had a little too much Skittles.
It’s freakishly delicious and deviously addictive, the flavor is dead on Skittles.
I was rather taken away by the liquid from the first toot, not so much because it’s rainbows in a bottle but because the flavor is very full and not too sweet.
Mind you, I’m not overly fond of candy flavored vapes but this one did convince me.
On the inhale it’s sweet and filled with all the colors of the rainbow, and on the exhale it’s less sweet but slightly tart.
There has to be some kind of magic to this…

Sadly we don’t have Buckfast flavour, but here’s the next best thing!
My review:
Scent: A soft and sweet smell eminates from the bottle
Color: Unlike the drinks original fiery orange, this liquid is clear as water.
Taste: Oh my, this is the stuff I was so curious about! And I wasn’t dissapointed!
I’ve been long since addicted to Irn Bru, and that hasn’t been easy because it’s nowhere to be found in Belgium.
This liquid brings solace though because the flavor is exactlly like the Scottish drink.
It’s less effervescent as the drink but I struggle to see how you would be able to get bubbles into eliquid anyway.
There’s an inherent sweetness to it of course but it doesn’t overpower the flavor itself, which is somewhere between bubblegum and jam with a touch of ginger.
I’m going to need more of this!

Fizzy drink with that distinct mouth watering flavour!
My review:
Scent: A slightly sour lime smell with a touch of lemon
Color: A clear liquid without coloration
Taste: This one sort of caught my tastebuds by surprise.
It’s sweet yet sour, with a lot of lime dominating the palate.
The inhale is mostly sour and feels like eating a lemon/lime candy, while the exhale is pure sweetness with a zesty aftertaste.
It lingers for a long time and I found that I had to rewick after vaping this outside of my tasting session.
While it is a good juice and the flavorprofile is right for the original drink, it’s not really for me. There’s too much sour for my taste and the aftertaste just lingers too long.
I’m sure others may disagree…

Delightfully orange with a touch of mint. Just like the real thing!
My review:
Scent: A subtle orange zest with a touch of menthol
Color: Clear as water
Taste: Just like the real thing, though with a little less orange.
The inhale is fresh because of the added menthol and has a bit of a cool kick to it.
The orange then pokes through and gives it the same flavorprofile as actual Tic Tacs.
The exhale is mostly orange but every toot leaves a cool feeling on the tongue.
I used to eat these Tic Tacs a lot back when I had part of my jawbone reconstructed, and this sort of takes me back (but in a good way)!
If you like the candy, you’ll love this liquid!

In conclusion.
Vapourdepot has a lot of liquids and this is just a small part of what they’re selling, but I’m impressed with the way the flavors approach the real thing.
It takes a good amount of skill to get this close to flavors that are mimicking a product. The Irn Bru eliquid in particular is something I see myself vaping a lot more of.
Not just their eliquids, but also their fair pricing and active support for local and European communities is more than admirable.
Thanks for sending out these liquids, VapourDepot! I’ll definitely be back!
And thank you all for reading of course, your continued support is very much appreciated!
Join me next week for another gear review, and expect a couple more juice reviews too!
BONUS: The guys wanted a “signed” photo in the review, so I did my best to make something of it.
