I have been curious about this flavour ever since Scott did a review on another brands Ginseng.

So here's my text review of it.  First off the colour is mostly clear, feint yellowish hue, not as pronounced as fluids I've tried in the past.  the scent is something of an oddball though.  I've heard it compared to 'tramps feet' but this is definitely not the same for this liquid.  It smells rather like wet granite stones, though after having vaped and tasting it, I recognise the scent as being ginseng, I've seen it, and smelled it, in a Chinese herb shop in Bristol.  So I've tried it and vaped it for a while on a 901 5v, and the flavour is very strong, I was expecting something weak, but am pleasantly surprised, I admit to having winced, before trying this, as I was expecting nastiness, but pleasantly, it tastes very good, and very oriental, much like the Ginseng extracts I've tasted in other things like energy drinks, though I have to add that, without the extras like caffeine, flavours, etc, but I'm amazed to say, this is pleasant enough to have a 30ml bottle of it, and vape on a semi-regular basis.

Would I recommend it?  No, as though I like the flavour, it is clear to me that the flavour I get from it, is definitely an acquired one, but I would be more than happy to buy more in future. Smiley

guess i will order some, i often cook with dryed roots of ginseng i directly import from the holy mountains the chineese share with the koreans and eating gingseng roots on there own (after cooking in chicken souup)is a verry aquired taste , defenitly strong mdical flavour i can only eat in smaller dose.
will look forwards to 5ml.

Having read your review I must say that I was intrigued, I wondered what a "Stone Like" flavour would be like.

I would have to say that on the smell test that it certainly does have a wet stone smell to it, that smell you get if you have a sudden downpour on a warm day, so yep I get the warm wet stone smell.

On the vape, I was surprised, I couldn't quite pin point the flavour, but then it hit me!! It reminded me of those shops you get where the hippy style 50 year olds selling their ethnic gear and crystals, the kind of shop that's ten a penny in places like Brighton. And IMHO it tastes like one of those shops, it's got a definite Joss-Stick flavour to it.

All in all, not an unpleasant vape although it's an occasional vape at best, good for chilling out on a summers eve listening to mellow tunes sitting around the fire pit

Definitely be buying more Smiley

Peace out man  Cool
