I am looking for something to give a good boozy taste to a vape without flavouring it - a bit like vodka in a drink. There are several good absinthe, whiskey, tequila and rum flavours that have a nice boozy flavour, so I tried the Aromea Vodka concentrate hoping it would give me the effect I'm looking for, but it tasted of nothing, zilch, nada - worst £3 I've ever spent! I notice that Wizard Vapes do a Vodka and Lime e-liquid that includes 5% of real vodka - so I'm thinking of trying 5% Vodka in a mix - am aware it might raise throat hit (which I don't like too much of) - but seeing no alternatives - any thoughts folks? An interesting web page here on vaping alcohol - but 5% in a mix is not going to be anywhere near the amounts talked about in this.

TBH 5% vodka is going to be un tastable. I dont drink booze any more and Ive tried a lot more than 5% vodka in a mix (as an experiment against adding water to vg) and all it does is thin your juice down I couldnt get a hint of it as a flava. Wizard vapes adding it to a mix IMO is just a sales gimmick.. Ive also tried whiskey and rum which does add a taste but its not the same as youd get sloshing it round your choppers. Any way give it a go whats the worst that could happen.

Thanks phtumshk and Perpetua. Had a little bit of a cranberry tester hanging around so added 20% to that, but not optimistic! Had a look at the AtmosLab - looked a bit expensive for me then found they also do a Muscat (I just love this grape, never seen it as a concentrate) and an Ouzo - well, I could not resist in spite of the price, so I got those and threw the vodka in as well... in for a penny...

Perpetua - you are a bad influence icon_shoppingm I know. If it's any consolation beedee . . . . . I'm a bad influence to myself as well, if such a thing is possible.

I'm consoled - a cash poor but concentrate rich kind of consoled... next I'll be after you for a cheaper source of AtmosLabs concentrates - I'm very excited about the Muscat and Ouzo flavours

Like you said phtumshk, the vodka has no impact on flavour at all even @ 20%, though I did seem to get more vapour. Thanks for heads up on Atmos, Perpetua. Though Vodka has no taste it gives that boozy kick to a drink, I've just done a dripper test on the Atmos Lab Vodka I mixed up yesterday - this is looking like it will do that job much better than the Aromea (which I suspect is just PG!).

You're welcome beedee . . . . I'm pleased it wasn't a complete waste of money for you.
