Vampire Vape e liquid, Heisenberg, Pinkman and the rest on the same grid
In most British vape shops, choosing a Vampire Vape e liquid comes down to two names, Heisenberg and Pinkman. Brand pages set them side by side as two fruity cousins without ever saying what separates them, and the rest of the range fades into the background. Yet this English house publishes a detailed three-stage profile for every recipe it makes, which lets you compare them precisely. The trick is knowing at which point in the puff they go their separate ways.
Heisenberg or Pinkman, the difference is in the finish
Both recipes open on fruit and then diverge. Heisenberg brings in menthol from the middle and ends on intense cold. Pinkman stays with sweet fruit all the way and finishes on a clean sweetness, with no menthol stated.
The maker describes Heisenberg’s opening as sweet, tangy mixed red berries, and Pinkman’s as bright, juicy mixed fruit, which its description spells out as berries and citrus. At that stage the two stay close, and it is what follows that decides.
| Stage | Heisenberg | Pinkman |
|---|---|---|
| Attack | Sweet, tangy red berries | Bright, juicy mixed fruit |
| Mid-palate | Layered fruit balanced by menthol | Sweet fruit notes |
| Finish | Intense, icy menthol | Refreshing sweetness, clean exhale |
| Menthol stated | Yes, from middle to finish | No |
For a first Vampire Vape e liquid, choosing between the two really means choosing a finish. A palate that wants cold should take Heisenberg, one that prefers to stay with the fruit should take Pinkman.
One nuance concerns fidelity to the description. Several retailers credit Heisenberg with a hint of aniseed or liquorice, whereas the official profile mentions neither and presents the recipe as a secret blend. Picking up that note is therefore not a deviation, and neither is missing it.
The rest of the Vampire Vape e liquid range on the grid
The range goes well beyond those two names. Every recipe has an official three-stage profile, which makes it easy to place relative to the two references. The recipes fall naturally into four families.
Heisenberg Grape, Attraction and Berry Menthol, the menthol line
Heisenberg Grape adds sweet, juicy grape on the attack, keeps Heisenberg’s fruity layers in the middle and ends on cool menthol. It is the most direct variation on the reference.
Attraction opens on juicy strawberry with a touch of ripe dark fruit, moves through a middle of tangy mixed berries and finishes on crisp menthol. Berry Menthol starts with sweet, tangy summer berries, sets strawberry, raspberry and blackberry in the middle, then closes on intense menthol.
All three end on menthol, like Heisenberg. They differ in the attack, whether grape, strawberry or summer berries.
Bat Juice and Blood Sukka, aniseed on the label
Unlike Heisenberg, these two list aniseed in their official profile. Bat Juice opens on strawberry and tangy raspberry, sets a deep blackcurrant in the middle and finishes on a smooth, sweet aniseed that lingers.
Blood Sukka starts with ripe cherries and summer fruit, puts aniseed and eucalyptus in the middle, then ends on cooling menthol with berries returning. If you want an aniseed note the maker openly claims, these are the two to taste.
Blackcurrant and Raspberry Sorbet, fruit up front
Blackcurrant rests on a full blackcurrant with medium sweetness and a slightly tangy edge. Its exhale stays round and fruity, with a light tartness at the end and no menthol stated.
Raspberry Sorbet opens on tart, juicy raspberry, adds a fizzy sorbet effect in the middle and finishes on a discreet menthol undertone. Its texture makes it the most unusual recipe in this selection.
Sweet Tobacco and Smooth Western, the tobacco side
Sweet Tobacco starts on a smooth, mellow tobacco, picks up a caramel sweetness in the middle and finishes with a warmth that lingers. Smooth Western opens on a gentle tobacco with a soft edge of smoke, settles into a creamy middle and ends on a warm sweetness.
On paper the two look alike. The caramel in the middle of the first and the cream in the middle of the second are what should tell them apart.
A product page that reads like a tasting grid
What sets this house apart is the shape of its product pages. Every Vampire Vape e liquid is described in three stages, top note, middle note and finish. That structure matches our grid exactly, attack, mid-palate and finish.
The fourth slider, true to the description, then becomes easy to fill in. You simply compare each stage you perceive with the one the maker describes, with no ingredient list to interpret. Few brands offer such a clear basis. T Juice, whose Red Astaire also combines berries, aniseed and menthol, describes its recipes in only two stages, for instance.
To check consistency from one bottle to the next, compare at the same nicotine strength. The maker blends its 10 ml liquids at 40/60 VG/PG for most strengths but at 50/50 for 3 mg/ml, and that change of base is enough to shift how the same recipe comes across.
Nicotine strengths and formats in the UK
The maker offers its 10 ml recipes at 0, 3, 6, 12 and 18 mg/ml, all below the UK ceiling of 20 mg/ml. Under the same rules, a nicotine-containing bottle cannot exceed 10 ml, so this remains the only format sold with nicotine.
Larger bottles are nicotine-free shortfills, topped up with nicotine shots. Their base differs from the 10 ml one, since the maker blends its 50 ml shortfills at 70/30 VG/PG, for example for Blood Sukka. A tasting done on a shortfill therefore cannot be compared directly with one done on a 10 ml bottle.
Refillable tanks are also capped at 2 ml in the UK, which suits the low-powered mouth-to-lung kits the 10 ml range is designed for. For a reliable grid, always note the format, strength and kit next to the four sliders.
FAQ
Five practical questions come up about the brand, beyond the tasting itself.
Where is Vampire Vape e liquid made?
In the UK. The maker states it on its product pages, and the brand also runs its own online shop.
Does Vampire Vape sell flavour concentrates?
Yes. The maker sells a range of flavour concentrates for home mixing, and several retailers stock them, Heisenberg included, alongside the ready-to-vape bottles.
Can some recipes damage plastic tanks?
The maker warns that certain flavours, notably aniseed and citrus ones, can cloud, crack or mark polycarbonate tanks. It names Bat Juice among the recipes concerned and recommends glass or Pyrex tanks.
Who can buy Vampire Vape in the UK?
Only adults. Like any nicotine-containing vaping product, it cannot be sold to anyone under 18, and the brand’s own shop runs an age check when an order is placed.
Do these recipes suit a pod kit?
Yes. The maker designs its standard 10 ml liquids for mouth-to-lung vaping in pod kits, pens and low-powered starter kits, where they aim for clear flavour and discreet vapour.
Choose your Vampire Vape e liquid by its finish
Tasting the range leads to one simple rule. A Vampire Vape e liquid is chosen first by its finish, icy menthol, fruity sweetness, aniseed or tobacco warmth, because that is the moment the recipes go their own ways.
Heisenberg and Pinkman are only the two ends of the Vampire Vape e liquid map. Between them, Attraction, Bat Juice and Blackcurrant offer other finishes, described precisely enough to be checked against the bottle. A clear product page makes for fairer tasting, and every house would do well to follow the example.
