Sour Blue Raspberry (CAP) 4% (2-7-23) â Wow, the room note on this one, was full on BLUE !!! Nearing the end of this big ass series, I finally got to spend some time with this one, and I was glad I did. It presented as a fairly artificial Blue Raspberry, which in and of itself is hard to explain, as they donât occur in nature. Some people think the BRB is a pairing of Raspberries and Blueberries, which MIGHT be true, but itâs hard to 100% nail that down. Regardless, it WAS true to the traditional profile, with a nice sour tartness, with JUST enough sweetener to round it out. @ 4% it felt like it might be able to go a little higher, maybe even 5.0-5.5% as a solo flavor, but even at my testing weight, there were no off-notes. Like a previous flavor above, this one had a recognizable âcommercialâ taste/ room note that is used widely, and youâll know what I mean when you taste it. No cooling, which was a bonus for me, as I canât use them, BUT, you could chill it down if needed. Regardless of how ICEE came up WITH the blue raspberry, this flavor did really capture it well. Non fatiguing, and still mysterious as to what exactly WAS in it, this one stayed interesting, and fresh throughout. If you DO like the Blue (hehe, itâs actually a clear flavor), youâll love this one. While I still may not be able to 100% fully identify the âberryâ compounds in this one, it had no real faults, and did what it was supposed to do. Solidly placing this one @ 9.0/10.
Strawberry Kiwi Fusion (CAP) 4% (2-9-23) â I had a LOT of fun with this, the second to last flavor in this big series of the NEW Capella flavors. Cards on the table, this was a great flavor. I was only somewhat hesitant, as I have tasted some Kiwis that were very (sorry) âcat pissyâ, hehe. This one had NONE of that. The SB presented as a really juice, ripe, red Strawberry, and with the Kiwi, it had a sparkly, bright finish. The pairing of the two was very smartly done, as it let the red juicy-ness of the SB shine in the beginning and middle, and the Kiwi sparked it up on the finish. Depending on your tastes/needs, you could be WELL on your way to making a Kanzi with minimal tweaking. At 4% it was fairly strong, but felt like you might be able to push it a little higher, possibly 1%. At the testing weight, there were no off notes, and it was about mid-level sweet. No jams, candies, or overripes here, just a great (repeating) juicy red SB, paired (or Fuzed) with a nice, bright Kiwi. Smartly done, and the sparkling of bright notes on the finish really did (trust me, 3 testers so far), kept you coming back for more. Nothing to mark down on this one, and the only thing of note would be a possible increase in percentage. Freshly placing this one at a nice high of 9.5/10.
Strawberry Lemonade (CAP) 4% (2-11-23) â âBig Badda Boomâ !! The LAST one of these NEW Capella flavors is on deck, and in the tank. As Iâve previously stated, sometimes on the FIRST taste, you get an impression, and it sticks with you (or me) from beginning to end, and that WAS the case here. The words of the day here are âPerfect Pairingâ. Capella did an incredible job of perfectly pairing both the SB and the Lemonade here. I donât know the actual compound ratios, but when tasting it, they both were DEAD EVEN. Not 49% / 51%, but 50% / 50%, meaning that both of the main profiles were completely, evenly matched. Now we can all probably agree, thereâs NO perfect ratio for everyone, and some will prefer more Lemonade, while others, more Strawberry. But if youâre one of the ones, RIGHT in the middle, you can âgas and goâ with this one. Need to pull it either way, towards the SB, or Lemonade, it wonât take much. The SB was hard to completely nail down BECAUSE of the PP (perfect pairing), and I did get some great hints of a juicy red strawberry that leaned natural, and was tempered by the Lemonade which gave it somewhat of a brighter, white (green) strawberry-ish taste, but there were plenty of juicy red undertones still in there. The Lemonade was nice and bright, almost sharp, and punchy, and it as well, leaned natural. This one WAS a couple of ticks above mid-level sweet, and while higher on the scale, it wasnât fatiguing to my tastes, BUT, it did lean on the sweeter side. I canât suppose to say what the perfect SB/LA ratio is for you guys, but this one was as an EVEN pairing as you could hope to get, and what YOUR tastes will require, will determine whether or not it needed to be pushed or pulled. As I sometimes do with lemons/lemonades is I taste it RIGHT on the heels of one of my rich custard/creamery ADVâs JUST to see if it can punch through. Meaning, I run two tanks side by side, test, test, test, the heavy creamery, then RIGHT over to the lemons/lemonades, and this one PUNCHED through, so itâs got some punch to it. At 4% it was very full on my SteamCrave RDTA, and it MIGHT be able to be run a smidge higher, but I didnât feel the need to. Nothing off-putting, or squirrel-ly, and rather hard to mark down. In closing for this flavor, it was a perfectly evenly paired red, juicy SB, and a fresh, bright, and punchy Lemonade that leaned heavily natural. Not to distract FROM the flavor, but the smack dab, 50/50 pairing could not be understated. Easily a 9.3/10.
Thanks for hanging in there, for the duration of this series, as some of these new Capella flavors were VERY interesting, and required some additional time to really flush out. Because I hand picked the flavors I wanted to test, either I got lucky, or most of these were just plain great flavors, as I didnât really get any âstinkersâ, with only the Cookie Crumble low scoring. It was an INSANELY good flavor, but just not true to itâs name.
Thanks again out to Allen from Capella for not only letting me pick all of these, but sending them out for this review.
Please accept thiis Flavor Testing Tophy on behalf of all your readers. Thanks @SessionDrummer
ROAR !!!
Thank you mate. Just like ALL of your work, each one, is a ONE of a kind.
Creamy custard seems similar to van cream as van cream is âcustard likeâ but with vanilla. Not sure which is heavier or thicker but tons of uses for these for custards,shakes,cakes,smoothies and yogurts.You could prob throw a fruit in either one and would be fine to vape as is.
Custard cake too is another Cap accomplishment let alone all their other releases.Caps really showing up with their last 2 sets of released flavors
