What Do You Get When You Cross a Blue Berry and a Banana?

The e-liquid:
Blue Banana by Mad Town Vapor
Max VG
3mg nic

The Setups:
Tugboat RDA with dual parallel coils @ .26 ohm on V3 Flip
TOBH RDA with dual parallel coils @ .41 ohm on copper Vanilla

Starting with the Tugboat that first puff... that very first puff was... well... it was okay...
To be fair, I had been drinking a Vanilla Latte... and was still finishing it when I got home to find the new e-liquid had arrived in the post. I'm in the midst of a banana vape obsession right now, so I couldn't wait to try this flavor. I love banana vape, I love blueberries, waiting was not an option ...and I didn't exactly have a clean pallet. This is not a flavor for enjoying with a Latte. The banana, especially, is easily overpowered. note, this is not a bad thing. because...

With each subsequent puff the flavor got better and better. a quick sip of water to clear my pallet and...

A very nice, very clear, yet smooth banana with a cooling blueberry flavor emerged. The banana is dominant on the inhale while the blueberry comes out on the exhale, and lingers in the mouth. The flavor is not overly strong. it's not going to tire out your taste, nor is it going to annoy anyone around you that has an aversion to banana vapor... which is to say, my wife isn't insisting that I switch to another e-liquid!

Next i tried with the TOBH. more airflow, higher resistance, and a slightly cooler vape. The blueberry was more subtle, but still added a hint or refreshing... well... blueness to the banana. and the banana was still awesome.

On both builds the vapor production was good.. I did get the max VG after all. It is, unfortunately, not going to block out my view of the TV when my wife decides to watch Devious Maids or some other bad show. But then, it's not like I chase clouds or anything, I don't, but i do like a nice full vapor production, and Blue Banana provides vapor quite nicely.

Now for the kicker. This liquid is 5 days old... that is to say, it hasn't had a chance to steep, and it's already 'the yum'! The next step is to put the rest away and let it steep for a few weeks... that is, if I can muster up enough self control to keep from vaping the whole bottle. If Blue Banana gets any better with steeping... well... It may have to go into permanent rotation in my e-liquid stash.

Final notes; the packaging.
Blue Banana came in a plastic bottle with a dripping tip. I would have preferred to see a glass bottle. but that could just be a bit of snobbishness on my part. because I think glass bottles look classy. The cap isn't childproof. this is a big deal for me, not because I enjoy dealing with child proof caps, but because they are a small thing that go a long way to keeping the media and politicians from painting worst case scenario scare stories about vaping and e-liquid.

The label has all the important stuff on it. vendor, vendor contact (web address) e-liquid name, ingredients, production date, PG/VG ratio, nicotine level, volume, and the requisite warning to keep out of reach of children. no cartoons or bright colors on the label, this is also a big deal... and a good thing!

All in all the packaging is good and the only improvement that it really needs is a childproof cap.
