High VG – BAHAMA MAMA – $20/30mL glass bottle – Spinfuel Choice Award Winner
“Savory coconut complemented with tropical pineapple, and fresh banana.”
Julia: 5 Stars – I remember vaping Bahama Mama once before, as a 60/40 PG/VG blend. It was good, but not award worthy. The reason was the pineapple, it was edgy and tart. Today, in this Higher VG formula that same pineapple is now sweeter, with no edges and no tartness. What comes at you in abundance is a delicious coconut milk, so creamy and so tasty, followed by that sweet pineapple. The added banana flavor, a sweet full bodied banana makes this e-liquid about the best tropical blend I’ve had all year, at least.
So many e-liquid artists don’t know how to use coconut wisely, I guess not realizing how creamy coconut can be, but Mr. Good Vape knows how to deliver a well balanced tropical vape with a rich layer of coconut and big banana finish.
Kiera: 5 Stars – It’s a little funny that Jules first flavor detected in Bahama Mama is coconut. For me it was definitely pineapple. Though I do agree that the pineapple in this blend is not the tart pineapple we’ve seen so many times before. The coconut, however, makes itself known after the pineapple, not before.
The subtle banana flavor notes happen on the exhale, and it is just enough to warrant a banana flavor. Together, these flavors do combine into a hugely enjoyable tropical vape. For the best flavor I would recommend shaking the bottle, opening it, and allowing it to air for a few hours, overnight is you can. That’s the best thing for any pineapple blend, and in this one not only does the pineapple become a little sweeter the coconut becomes fuller. The banana on the exhale will stay about the same, subtle but natural.

Tom: 4 Stars – There isn’t very many pineapple flavors that I can get behind, but that is no reason to down score an e-liquid if the quality and ingredients are high. I think we can safely say that all Mr. Good Vape e-liquids are all high quality, masterfully mixed blends. Still, I can’t see myself awarding Bahama Mama 5 stars. The reason is the lack of banana flavor in the exhale. It just isn’t enough to overcome the pineapple, and it should be. All that being said, if you don’t expect much banana flavor then this becomes an excellent Pina colada tropical vape. Delicious blend of pineapple and coconut, and more vapor than most of the others in the lineup.
Jason: 4.75 Stars – Bahama Mama really is a terrific tropical blend. There isn’t a lot of banana in this blend, but the pineapple is sweet and the coconut is a good bottom layer for the pineapple.
I can see a lot of tropical blend vapers using Bahama Mama as a nice all day vape, mainly because the pineapple doesn’t overwhelm the whole flavor profile. I don’t have a pineapple blend in my rotation, or in my collection, and I don’t believe this one will make it either. For those that do enjoy pineapple flavors this is a great choice.
