The Goods:

Night Shift comes from a line of all-VG juices from Velvet Cloud Vapor. Those living north of the 49th parallel will be happy to know that they do indeed ship to Canada. Just cross your fingers that customs is too busy dealing with the next batch of black market maple syrup.

At the time of this writing, I’ve started to gravitate almost exclusively to the use of my IGO-W and Kayfun. As foreshadowing for my eventual scoring of this juice, this one’s made it into the Kayfun.

On the nose, Night Shift smells like exactly like the chocolate glazing on a donut. I’ve also been told by others chocolate chip cookie.

Whether loaded into dripper or RBA, Night Shift starts with a blast of a donut flavour – think a plain unglazed – especially when the juice is fresh. It’s caramel, crisp dough, and a touch of sweet.

The flavour then melds into a sweet chocolate icing, much like its smell. This isn’t a rich chocolate flavour. Rather, Night Shift presents as a cheap, sweet icing and sprinkles. I mean this in the best way possible; Tim Horton would be proud.

The one factor that’s missing, surprisingly, is the coffee. The seductive bitterness of a good cup of joe is nowhere, unless my taste buds are mistaking it for a part of the chocolate. Only in the room note can one detect a distinct, dare I say double-double (that’s a cheap coffee, 2 milk, 2 sugar for you non-Canucks), aroma.

As much as I allude to the sweetness in this chocolate donut vape, those like me without much of a sweet tooth will be happy to find that Night Shift is by no means saccharine sweet. For me, I sense just a hint on the tip of the tongue on the end of an exhale.

What would this vape pair well with? A morning coffee, for one. And I would be remiss to not mention malty beers or a good glass of milk.

The Verdict?

Night Shift delivers a solid chocolate donut vape; those on the quest for a perfect coffee vape, though, should look further.

Rating: 4.5/5. The bottle was tirelessly finished, and is in the running for a spot as an all-day vape. Only a half point detracted for the minor disappointment of little coffee backing.
