Organic Mint Chocolate Chip: “This flavor is another one of our consistent top sellers. It balances a strong, refreshing mint flavor with the taste of chocolate chips in a creamy base. Customers tell us it tastes just like Breyer’s Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream!”

 

Julia: Refreshingly brilliant! A perfect mint chocolate chip. Just the right amount of minty flavor balanced perfectly with chocolate chips. I loved this one so much I had to have more. If you even think you’d like this one, you will love it. 5 Stars

Keira: I don’t know what it is about organic flavors, but the authenticity of the mint and the milk chocolate is so good it’s almost shocking. It’s as though someone took chocolate chip mint ice cream and turned it into a vapor. The only negative, if you could even call it that is that my lower lip had a lingering cool spot, a touch of coolness I did not expect. Otherwise I adored it. 5 Stars

Jason: Mint Chocolate Chip happens to be my favorite ice cream, and it has to be Breyer’s ice cream too. This has the exact same flavor profile of Breyer’s Ice Cream Mint Chocolate Chip. Outstanding! Stars

Cynthia: I think Virgin Vapor did a great job with Mint Chocolate Chip eJuice, except for one thing. I started taking short drags and it was awesome, but then as I liked it more and more I took longer and deeper drags. And that’s when the “mint” flavor became a “menthol” flavor. It’s good, but not as awesome as it was going to be. 4 Stars

Janet: I was in heaven vaping Min Chocolate Chip. My favorite ice cream flavor turns out to be an excellent vapor too, who would have thought? Lots and lots of flavor, a good throat hit, and a perfect mix of mint and chocolate. Bravo! 5 Stars

Organic Bananas Foster: “Our Organic Bananas Foster E-liquid has lots of repeat customers. For some reason, bananas taste delicious when vaped! This e-liquid also has notes of vanilla, caramel and a hint of cinnamon.”

 

Julia: I’ve had some good bananas foster vapes in the past year and a half. But this one is out of this world. A proper bananas foster does not overload you with banana flavoring, it has to balance almost perfectly with caramel and vanilla, just like the desert that is served table side at fine dining establishments. Organic Bananas Foster delivers on all fronts, making it one of the best banana vapes. 5 Stars

 Keira: The first time I had Bananas Foster was with Jules in a restaurant here in Boston. It was an incredible desert experience. So, how does this e-Liquid compare? I won’t lie, there is definitely the same “flavor profile” present, but it isn’t close to the real thing, not really. But, as a banana vape, with hints of caramel and vanilla, it was excellent. So many banana-flavored eJuices have very overpowering banana flavoring in it but this isn’t one of them. I enjoyed it, but not as much as I did the real thing. 4 Stars

Jason: Not a perfect Bananas Fosters, but then I didn’t really expect it to be. What this is, for a change, is a nicely balanced flavor combo of bananas and caramel, with a touch of vanilla. I did not detect cinnamon at all. Still, very nice vape, one I could vape for hours and not tire of it. 4.5 Stars

Cynthia: Not your typical banana flavored eLiquid, that’s for sure. I really liked it because the banana flavoring was tamed by the caramel and vanilla flavoring. Lots of vapor, an okay throat hit, and an enjoyable vaping experience. I would definitely vape this again. 4.5 Stars

Janet: I’ve only had one other bananas foster before, as an e-Liquid I mean, and this is better. It’s better because it’s not so heavy on the banana. I would say that each flavor element, except the cinnamon, which I did not taste at all, was equally divided. That make it a mellow banana vape that did not overpower me. Sweet, lots of vapor, and even a better than average throat hit. I would vape it again. I will vape it again. 4.5 Stars.

Organic Sweet Lemonade: “This flavor was specially created for a customer who wanted something sweet and refreshing to help her get through the summer!  Virgin Vapor’s Organic Sweet Summer Lemonade E-liquid hits the perfect balance of sweet and tart.  This flavor is cooling and refreshing and full of real lemon taste. The perfect summer vape!”

Julia: I’m not at all crazy about lemons in my e-Liquid flavors. I much prefer lime to lemon, but this was sweeter than most other lemon flavors that I’ve had so it was better than most. I’m also not a big “tangy” fan either, and although there was a tangy part to this blend, it did not overtake the sweetness. For people that enjoy lemon vapes, you can’t miss this one. 4 Stars

Keira: Sweet lemonade. That is exactly what this is, and for that alone it gets the maximum stars. But even better, this one produces more vapor than I expected and the throat hit was really nice. If you like lemonade, this is for you. 4.5 Stars

Jason: This is a refreshing lemon flavored vape that I enjoyed from start to finish. Sweet enough not to overpower with tangy puckish flavors, Sweet Lemonade is delicious. A really nice balance, and lots of vapor, and a good throat hit round out the flavor profile nicely. For lemon lovers, you vape has arrived. 4 Stars

Cynthia: I thought I would like Sweet Lemonade but for some reason it didn’t taste right to me. Maybe more like a lemon flavored Crystal Lite drink, not sweet lemonade. Good vapor though. 3.5 Stars

Janet: If there had been any less sweetness to this one I would not have enjoyed it much, or if at all. But, the sweetness made it into a pleasurable lemonade vape. My only advice is to not jump into this flavor from a very different one without a break, or brushing your teeth, or drinking water. I tried that the first time and didn’t like it. Then I tried it again and it was a whole lot better. 4.75 Stars

 Organic Blooming Jasmine: “Looking for the perfect floral e-liquid?  You found it!  This ultra gourmet flavor is otherworldly!  Sweet and fragrant without a trace of artificial perfume, this flavor tastes like the scent of jasmine on the wind at night.  Delicate yet powerful, this romantic flavor will sweep you off your feet!

Julia: Floral vapes are not everyone’s cup of tea; let’s just admit that up front. Some of you will hate it from the start. Others, who are interested in floral vapes but haven’t had them before will need to acquire a taste for them. Those that already like some floral vapes will love this one. I’m somewhere in the middle. I’ve had some really good ones from Virgin Vapor like Bed of Roses, and this one isn’t bad by any means, but its not my favorite either. Maybe I need more time with Florals. 4 Stars

 Keira: Floral e-Liquids are an acquired taste, no doubt. Jasmine is one of the stronger floral vapes among Virgin Vapors floral lineup, but I loved it. 5 Stars

Jason: Every bit as complex as the other florals we vaped in June, Jasmine is a flavor I never thought I would like, but damn if I didn’t. We would have thought that I would get into floral vaping like this. I know not everyone will like it, but if you’ve never tried you’d never know. 5 Stars

Cynthia: I wish I could have been a member of the team in June when you vaped the other florals, because this one was just so fantastic! I let a friend vape Jasmine and he thought he tasted the inside of cedar chest (seriously!), so he’s not a good candidate for floral flavors. If you want to open up another world of vaping then at least try one of the floral flavors from Virgin Vapor. 5 Stars

Janet: There is an initial pushback I got when I tried my first floral vape, which was this one actually. The pushback is your mind telling you this is nothing like what you’ve been vaping for months and months. So at first I was like “Yuck!”, but then as I approached it slowly, a little here and a little there, my mind accepted this huge difference and I actually started to enjoy the underlying jasmine flavor. Not for everyone, but for those of you that like floral vapes, I would say by a sampler of all Virgin Vapors floral flavors, which I what I plan to do, because I’m told they are all very different. 4 Stars

 Conclusion and Buying Advice

Virgin Vapor’s 100% organically flavored e-Liquids have a slightly different flavor profile than non-organic flavored e-Liquids. There are a certain number of people that notice this difference in big ways, while others do not. I think from a personal standpoint that in the early days of my vaping discovery period I might not have preferred organic flavored eJuice because of the slightly different profile. Today it is something I look forward to. Virgin Vapor makes some of the most authentic flavored e-Liquids I’ve had the pleasure to vape, and some of weren’t so great. The takeaway from any Virgin Vapor review is to remember that 100% organically flavored eJuice is going to present itself a little differently, and to expect a different vaping experience.

For instance, any floral vape that expects to have a natural flavor must be organically flavored. That’s the only way you’re going to get the real flavor profile of any flower type eLiquid. As for other flavors, like the Mint Chocolate Chip, an organic flavor concentrate is going to give you a much better “mint” flavor than non-organic. Not menthol, but mint, from the mint herb. Organic flavors do not contain artificial sweeteners, colors, or flavors.

The Double Espresso tastes as though it were made of actual coffee beans, and can therefore appear to be either too strong or too harsh. It is also more apt to leave behind an espresso scent in the air, and actually give you “coffee breath”. How’s that for authenticity?

All in all, our team was of different minds over every flavor except the cotton candy carnival. This Spinfuel Choice Award winner was just incredible as a sweet desert vape. It turned out to be every bit as great as everyone had been telling us.

All the e-Liquids in today’s review are available in 100% VG and 50/50 PG/VG. You choice in nicotine strengths are 5%, 8%, 12%, 18% and 24%, and non-nicotine.
