Perique Reserva E-Liquid by Red Vape

Lovely tobacco (27 May 2024)

Red Vapes are a premium range and their tobacco flavours are refined and subtle. This is no exception and can be a tad bitter at first but persevere and it grows on you!

Not For Me (06 April 2023)

I've only tried this juice on it's own so far, i.e. not blended with anything else and I didn't enjoy it at all. The strong tobacco taste lingers on in a way that I didn't like and although the flavour is more complex than just tobacco there's no way I'd ever have recognised the vanilla & caramel flavours for what they're meant to be, to me it's just a slight 'something else' behind the main tobacco taste if that makes sense.

As someone else has mentioned, it must be an acquired taste and I guess that in the same way that I'm a fussy eater I'm equally fussy about vape flavours too; I'm going to try mixing a little with a couple of other flavours to see if I can make it into something I find more palatable but I wouldn't buy this one again.

Love it (18 March 2023)

For many years I have been in search of a liquid that would get me off the cigarettes but to no avail, until a very nice lady at my local garage recommended this, a bit pricey compared to other liquids but well worth it, this is “The one” taste is lovely and very satisfying.
Don’t be put off by the price, compared to an average cost of 50 cigarettes it’s a saving of about £24, no brainer.
Highly recommend

Best tobacco (21 November 2022)

Nearest thing to smoking I have found. Unique adult flavour. Refined and robust

(16 February 2022)

This juice is exquisite. It's as close to real tobacco as I have tasted in an e-liquid and smooth as can be. Sweet but not too sweet, Perique is a must for anyone transitioning from cigarettes to a vape and struggles with fruity juices which don't replace that feeling of smoking. The only problem is that it is pricey (though I still consider it fairly good value) so I can't vape it all the time. Nice for a treat though! Will buy again if only for special occasions.

Smoooooooth (09 December 2021)

This is one of the best tobacco flavours out there. A bit too pricey for my wallet but I occasionally get some for a special occasion. Cannot beat this stuff.

Amazing (28 July 2021)

Best tobacco flavour out there for me. Price is the only cons tbh.

Perique RV Red Vapes juice (05 July 2021)

This is so good to inhale and satifyingly smooth at my prefered choice of 18mg nic, and delicious. I love the vanilla/caramel/tobacco combination. It’s mouth watering but not too sweet. There’s no horrid aftertaste and for some reason I find this flavour quite calming, so I think I need to try more RV flavours as I am really impressed with this one.

lovely (09 January 2021)

very nice tobacco liquid!!! lovely and smooth

By DanielStockwell from Watford

Very Good (11 December 2020)

Very good tobacco product - easily one of the best I’ve had. It has the Turkish Tobacco flavour and the additional flavours are subtle and pleasant.

By Snowdoggy from South Yorkshire

Absolutely Superb! (01 September 2018)

I gave up on the 'conventional' ciggies just over 2 weeks ago and have tried a few 'tobacco' vapes with varying satisfaction. Some have been okay but most don't taste anything like real tobacco and are generally far too sweet and sickly and most leave a nasty aftertaste.
After sampling Red Vape Havano Dark E-Liquid and thinking that was the best tobacco juice available (second best now) I have been forced to think again...
I decided after vaping such a joyous juice to try all the Red Vape tobacco range as I was so impressed by their Havano Dark E-Liquid and I am so glad I did after sampling this little gem.
Perique Reserva is the absolute dogs doodlies in my opinion. It's smooth, nutty, earthy, with a nice amount of cloud and a subtle sweet finish to round it all off. I really can't find a fault with this juice at all. The taste, to me is better than anything I've ever smoked the old traditional way.
I am going to work my way through the whole tobacco range from Red Vape because I am so impressed by the 3 I have tried so far and will be reviewing them all in the (hopefully) very near future. I've reviewed 2 of the 3 and hopefully will be able to review the Appleleaf soon. My better half is currently working her way through Red Vape's Non-tobacco range but isn't very forthcoming with reviews.
I highly recommend this juice and would also like to add that if you are looking for a rich satisfying tobacco vape I highly recommend trying one of the Red Vape Reserva juices.
Also I would like to add 10/10 for Vape Club for their excellent amount of choice in juices, speedy delivery and customer service.

Red Vape Perique (22 November 2017)

This is the best tobacco liquid out there, so moorish goes well with food and a pint, lovely taste not to strong, no horrible after taste just heaven, ordered 3 more 12mg, great juice no longer smoke! Can't be beaten!

By AD from Wexford

Top of their range! (28 July 2017)

I was lucky enough to have the Imperius XV and Cherryleaf from RV before they stopped making them :( (Why!!?)
Both superb liquids, very strong in taste and as described on the packaging.

For me, this is the same with Perique, all the flavours identifiable, truly outstanding, and the only one I would consistently buy from the current range.

The quality is high with their Naturally Extracted Tobacco range, with coils remaining 'gunk' free far longer than artificially flavoured tobacco liquids.

Used with Aspire EVO 0.5 Ohm @ 30W

By Graham from Chilton

Outstanding (29 April 2016)

This liquid is quality, lovely woody tobacco flavours with sweet after tones and seems to get sweeter the more you vape. The wife complained about the smell from the vape, but it didn't bother me. Just ordered another bottle!

By Angie

A little disappointed (04 February 2016)

I wanted to try a tabacco flavour with a twist and bought this based on the reviews.

A bit disappointed, but thats probably my own personal taste, its a little too heavy for me.

Its a lovely looking bottle though :-)

Not keen on the smell of the vape and juice. I accidentally spilled a bit of juice whist filling up, everyone kept commenting there was a odd smell - like burning plastic. [poker face]

By Goulouri from Essex

If you vape it neat, it's too full on! (03 February 2016)

This is definitely one if you like a really overpowering flavour, for me I have to mix it half and half with a generic Vanilla juice to make it palatable. If i vape it neat, it tastes good but makes me naeseous!

By Marc from Kent

Another Red Vape success (01 February 2016)

Tried this after loving the Appleleaf they make and was,nt dissapointed. Has lots of depth and darkness. Another juice that really comes alive if you open it on receipt and let some air into the bottle and give a good shake. Give it a Day and it really comes alive!

By Tony from Derby

Excellent premium e-liquid (19 January 2016)

I've read some great reviews about the "Reserva" range from Red Vape and the Perique lives up to its reputation as one of the finest e-liquids currently on the market. It must be the Bourbon maturing coating on the inside of the barrel that gives it the rich caramel taste. I'm looking forward to giving the Honeywood Reserva a shot.

By Dave from London

Delicious (20 April 2015)

There's an amazing complexity to this liquid. I'm not getting any liquorice as mentioned below. The base notes are woody, slightly malty, smooth pipe tobacco and top notes of caramel or maple syrup with a subtle hint of flowers/vanilla. I have to say this is my favourite liquid which I've now pretty much settled on after months of searching and experimenting. Shame it's not available in other nicotine strengths. I mix mine down with a bit of pure VG 0mg Drum liquid. I use 1.5Ohm, 3.8 - 4.2V mod.

aquired taste (01 February 2015)

my first vape on this made me think of gravy granules, not good.
second attempt I could taste jack daniels, (I don't like JD), still not good.
after a 3 day steep with lid off, I tried again,
third attempt I tasted liquorice, similar to chewing on a stick of liquorice, I like liquorice, getting better,
for me the flavour has now settled after a couple of weeks, the taste is now a nice dark tobacco on the inhale, and a soft liquorice on the exhale.
I don't get any vanilla or caramel
it's my main vape of the day for now, but i still need a break from it now & again,
I've been using a aerotank mega @ 2.1ohm, & I've settled on 4.2v / 9.0w

overall I was dissapointed with this, for the cost I expected a wow out of the bottle, I don't get why steeping it improved the taste, after it has already had a long steep in oak barrels,
I believe if it wasn't for the high cost I would probably have given up on this juice sooner.
