What the website says - Extracting the sub-zero flavour molecules from oranges kept in cryogenic storage results in the ice cold and intense citrus experience that we call Solstice. Mix - 65 VG Nic - 4mg Concentrate - 30% (Website says 25%) Steep time - 2 days (as per website) Vape - Cleito 0.4 (new coil) at 30w Straight to the point, I am wistful about this wishy washy, watery waste The orange flavour is almost non-existent and lifeless. There is no cold element to this. I'm so disappointed with this one I'm actually struggling to think of much more to write... I'm just very frustrated by the work of the marketing geniuses again - "cryo", "ice cold", "intense citrus". This is the sort of thing the pound shop would be embarrassed to sell. I don't think the usual WS bomb will make any difference to this one. The base flavour of the orange is just so languid I think it would just be still "dull, muted orange" but just colder. Cosmix? "Crap" would be far more appropriate.....

I've been disappointed with all of the DS one shots I've tried. All weak & bland, I know I like a strong punchy flavour but even mixed way higher they have been crap for me. Not sure who their mixologist is but really can't recommend them at all.

TJ - I got peanut butter ice cream at the same time - I've got that one in for a 3 week steep - sounds so good - I will be really disappointed if that one is bland and tasteless too

I've signed up to DS and added a review to their site - will be very interested if they will publish it.....
Slightly politer than the version here but still including "very disappointed", "lifeless", "bland" and "wishy washy watery"

Makes me glad I resisted the 40% code, especially as the Nom Nomz offer came along a few days later!
