At this year's Shenzhen exhibition, I unexpectedly came across the ZOYO JOKER series e-liquids, tried them on-site, and had a brief chat with the manufacturer, which made me willing to review these e-liquids. The name and packaging inevitably remind one of Heath Ledger's Joker from "Batman: The Dark Knight," perhaps a tribute from the manufacturer.
After seeing the official images above, I wonder if you noticed that the text on the images reveals a certain artistic flair. The manufacturer once shared with me the effort that went into these copywriting pieces, indicating that they are not just aiming to produce this series of e-liquids but are also cultivating a culture around electronic cigarettes. For this, the manufacturer deserves a shout-out!
Since I started using e-cigarettes, I have often criticized early domestic e-liquids. The experience was generally poor, offering nothing but low prices (various true tobacco-flavored e-liquids, anyone?). However, after trying this series of e-liquids, I truly see hope for domestic products.
The JOKER series comes in a 30ml capacity, with a packaging box featuring a visible window. This design reminds me of Halo, and the most eye-catching feature is the Joker's head logo, with its bizarre and cool signature smile, leaving a lasting impression!
Testing Device 1: SX mini + Elf Atomizer (26g + 32g Clapton 3.0 diameter 5 turns 0.67Ω)
Testing Device 2: Cleito TS218 + Mage Atomizer (24G Ni80 dual coil 2.5 diameter forgot the number of turns 0.27Ω)
Purple Joker, Mint Fennel----from the official description
The aroma has a hint of mint gum with a touch of fresh fennel. The initial taste is slightly cool, and upon exhaling, there is a hint of fennel's unique fragrance, leaving a subtle aftertaste of mint gum in the mouth, which is quite refreshing.
Device 1: The flavor is best here, but the exhale somewhat suppresses the fennel's fragrance, with slightly lower restoration.
Device 2: Compared to Device 1, the fennel flavor is clearer, while other sensations are similar to Device 1.
Summary: The fennel and mint flavors are very prominent, with a kind of tingling fennel and fresh herbal taste. The mint's restoration is good, refreshing the mind and providing a cool sensation. Upon exhaling, there is a unique betel nut flavor, which will be loved by fans, but those who dislike it may not enjoy it. Overall, this e-liquid is very refreshing, with clear but not complex flavors, making it a unique option for those who dislike heavy flavors. This e-liquid is also suitable for mixing with other stronger flavors, slightly softening their intensity while adding a touch of freshness.
Recommendation: ★★★★ (out of 5 stars, with half stars represented as virtual stars)
Green Joker, Green Mango----from the official description
Although it's called green mango, it smells like a blend of ripe and green mango. The sweetness of mango is present, but the inhale and exhale do not carry much sweetness, only a hint of the green mango's sourness and freshness.
Device 1: The restoration is slightly lower, mainly showing sweetness without much sourness.
Device 2: It can slightly reflect the freshness brought by the green mango's sourness, but it is not very clear, and the sweetness is reduced appropriately.
Summary: The flavor is between green and ripe mango, not very clear, presenting a fresh and mature green mango taste. The restoration of the fruit flesh is good, with a sweet aroma and a slight astringency from the mango skin. The fruit aroma is rich upon entry, with moderate sweetness, refreshing without being cloying. However, after multiple puffs, there may be a loss of flavor perception, so it is recommended to switch flavors to enjoy! Recommended for those who like refreshing flavors (looking forward to the manufacturer adjusting the sourness of the green mango in the future).
Recommendation: ★★★☆ (out of 5 stars, with half stars represented as virtual stars)
Blue Joker, Coconut----from the official description
Upon opening, there is a strong coconut milk aroma, and I mean strong! However, achieving "richness" cannot rely solely on aroma; the experience also needs improvement.
Device 1: Whether inhaling, exhaling, or the aftertaste, it is all a coconut flavor, rich in milk but lacking in coconut aroma.
Device 2: The milk flavor is slightly reduced, while the coconut flavor becomes slightly more pronounced, yet it remains mild.
Summary: Upon opening, it has a rich coconut candy flavor, with a hint of condensed milk aroma. The fragrance is delicate and even, with a soft and full mouthfeel, carrying the sweetness of fresh coconut juice. The throat hit is smooth, and among the Joker series, this flavor has a relatively lower restoration. Those who enjoy milky and lightly coconut-flavored options should give it a try (though I hope the manufacturer puts more effort into the Blue Joker flavor).#p#分页标题#e#
Recommendation: ★★★ (out of 5 stars, with half stars represented as virtual stars)
Yellow Joker, Tobacco----from the official description
It's hard to describe this tobacco flavor, as I have the least experience with tobacco-flavored e-liquids. It resembles the tobacco flavors from the early days of using e-cigarettes, neither surprising nor unpleasant.
Device 1: The tobacco flavor is not heavy, leaning towards a refreshing tobacco, with the concentration peaking during exhalation.
Device 2: It is relatively smoother and fresher, with the tobacco flavor also peaking during exhalation.
Summary: This is a tobacco flavor, with a high acceptance level upon opening, featuring a hint of cocoa and nut elements. The entry is gentle and light, with a noticeable roasted sweet flavor from nuts, and a smooth throat hit, making it suitable for producing large vapor clouds. For those who enjoy a heavy tobacco flavor, this may be too refreshing and smooth. Personally, I have never been fond of tobacco-flavored e-liquids, but at least this one does not offend me. The restoration of the tobacco flavor is also quite good, though the 3MG nicotine content results in a lack of a strong throat hit.
Recommendation: ★★★☆ (out of 5 stars, with half stars represented as virtual stars)
Message: In an era where 60ML e-liquid packaging is prevalent, the manufacturer's 30ML packaging indeed takes a different approach. After a period of experience, I feel deeply that this is a manufacturer with flavor, culture, and attitude. I also hope that domestic products can continue to improve.
