Black Note SOLO

Delicious, especially with a beerReview by Antony

Overall

I smoked for 40 years and tried switching to vaping many times but kept returning to real tobacco because I couldn’t find any liquid that would satisfy me, they were all artificial. After discovering Black Note I have become a total convert and absolutely love both the Prelude and the Solo flavours. I find The high nicotine 18mg Solo is gorgeous in the evening, especially with a beer, and the slightly lower 12mg perfect in the day as it can feel a little scratchy on the throat, particularly after a meal, but I actually have got used to this and now love it. Beautiful smooth flavour, cooling mint and real tobacco flavour, absolutely divine. I use a Smok Novo 2 with 1 ohm pod and it’s just lovely, I have finally found the perfect alternative to real smoking and will now never go back. Yes it’s expensive, but totally worth it compared to the cost of tobacco, I’d happily pay double the price. If it doesn’t work right away for you, try it with a cool beer or cool soft drink, you’ll love it. (Posted on 13/02/2020)

Don't bother.Review by Josh

Overall

I'm a long-time menthol smoker who has recently converted to vaping again. I saw this juice years ago, so imagine my surprise when I stumbled on it again! After committing myself to only using menthol tobacco juices (it can get overwhelming with all these other flavours!) I couldn't wait to see what all the fuss was about. But it was a huge disappointment. The 50/50 blend with 12mg is something I've been using for ages now, but this juice was dry and felt scratchy on my throat? And like, not in a good cigarette kind of way. I know the difference. The menthol is weird as well... tastes so artificial and anything but smooth. I know these guys make their juices like a year in advance, so I was looking forward to not waiting for steeping... and I don't know if I got a dud or what, but I ended up mixing this juice with some of my locally bought (cheaper) juice. And it was still horrendous. If you're looking for an authentic menthol tobacco, just get it from *** where you can get like 5 for the price of this one. That's what I'll be doing instead of re-ordering this trash.

Thanks for the feedback Josh and sorry to hear Solo isn't the menthol for you.
We have a huge regular customer following who love the real natural extracted menthol and tobacco which make up the Solo flavour
Almost all other tobacco menthol eliquids are made using man made artificial chemically produced flavours.

That's right Josh - Solo simply contains a natural real menthol extract derived from genuine peppermint leaves which make Solo unique. (Posted on 02/05/2019)

Taste Review by Carmel

Overall

I must admit I loved smoking but never found anything help me stop .
I smoked menthol.
Well I tried Black note Solo which is the menthol liquid from Black note. It’s honestly like having a cigarette after you’ve eaten , the effects on your taste buds seems exactly the same . I’ve been using Solo 18mg . I’ve tried cheaper menthols they don’t come close for that satisfaction you need . I actually feel just like I’m smoking still .
I highly recommend this for tobacco taste and the menthol flavour. (Posted on 04/03/2019)

Great menthol tasteReview by Mississippi Mike

Overall

First of all, it's a shame this is out of stock. Please Vapour, try to replenish your stock of Solo. I'm not sure if Black Note themselves stopped making it or if y'all are not distributing anymore, but I'd suggest that if it is an option, consider ordering more of this great product.

Secondly, although the gentleman below has the full right to leave a bad review, I must add that I found his poor review to be based on pure misinformation and bad research. Our dear friend needs to note that ice mint and menthol are not the same thing. This is suppose to taste like a menthol cigarette, which we all know does not taste like ice mint. Menthol cigarettes tastes like mentholated tobacco, because that what it is. And this is the flavor that Solo emulates, and if I may say so, it does so flawlessly. Yes, I am a big fan of ice mint flavors, in fact, I use a bit of it with almost all my home made e-liquids, to give them that cooling sensation. There's plenty of them out there. Black Note clearly estates that their liquids are carefully made with real tobacco. So looking for an icy mint taste in this brand is a bit misguided, let alone the most icy mint!

Now, back to the review, there's not really much to say about it, other than the fact that Solo delivers in its promise, it tastes like menthols. You will get a great tobacco taste with a hint of menthol. I used to smoke Marlboros and sometimes I bought the menthol, and thise-liquid tastes as close to it as I've ever gotten.

Again, please consider putting this back in stock, it is a great tasting e-liquid and I will definitely order more. Thanks.

Thanks for the words and support Mississippi Mike
Solo flavour in Europe is indeed currently discontinued by Black Note. There is a plan to re-introduce Solo in the future. (Posted on 22/07/2017)

Fantastic vapeReview by Matthew

Overall

I have just moved on to using box mods and this is the first e juice I tried. As previously being a menthol cig smoker I went for this. Best menthol/ tobacco I've tried using E-cigs, I wish I bought a few bottles to keep me going. Vaped using Cool fire 4 plus, I sub G tank 0.5ohm coil. Vaping on about 26W produces good amount of vape and a satisfying throat hit. (1.2% Nic level). (Posted on 15/04/2016)

A Smooth & Refreshing Vape Review by Liam

Overall

I've been vaping for a couple of months now and this is the most satisfying liquid I have used so far. The sample bottle I got from The Notebook lasted me about a day and a half and the 30ml bottle I bought lasted about a week. I can chain vape half a tank of this stuff, I enjoy it so much that it's hard for me to stop once I get started. The vapour is very refreshing and extremely smooth it's almost as good as inhaling fresh air.

There is one con with this liquid & that is I cannot taste any tobacco flavour(this isn't an issue for me hence the 5 stars). If you were looking for a tobacco/menthol flavour which is what this is supposed to be you might be disappointed. There is definitely something else there besides menthol but it doesn't taste like tobacco to me, it's more like the sweetness you get from a Murray Mint or a Polo.

I'm vaping on a Kangertech Subox Mini starter kit using the RBA deck. I've found 1-1.5ohm coils produce the best flavour with this liquid. 6mg potency liquid tested in this review.

Not as I expected.... Supposed to be menthol?Review by Hughieboy

Overall

I bought this as I am always searching for the most icy menthol eliquid. After reading about it on a vaping blog site and then the reviews on the Black Note website I took the plunge...... And to me, it tastes awful! It's very heavy on the tobacco flavour with the merest hint of menthol.... If you use your imagination! I have to say it is beautifully presented and packaged and the included pipette is a great idea. It is a luxury product which is reflected in the price and the service from Vapour UK was very swift, it came next day. If you like a strong and dare I say it stale tobacco taste then this might be for you. But menthol? No chance..... Unfortunately Eliquid is non returnable so all in all a bit of a waste of money for me. Ho hum. (Posted on 05/01/2016)
