Medusa Juice E-Liquid Review

Medusa Juice is a premium e-liquid company based in Norfolk, United Kingdom. Since they have over 70 different flavors to choose from, it was virtually impossible for me to review their whole line, as I usually do, so I decided on a handful of them, just to get an idea of the quality they offer.

Most Medusa Juice e-liquids are a 70/30 propylene glycol-vegetable glycerin blend, which makes them compatible with any kind of vaping setup, from basic clearomizers to tanks and rebuildable atomizers. The heavy PG mix also makes the flavor stand out more and ensures a strong throat hit even in low-nicotine juices. On the downside, the high amount of PG could cause some trouble for vapers allergic to it, but that’s probably why Medusa juice also offers a small line of 95% VG flavors.

Customers have a choice between 10 ml plastic bottle and 30 ml bottles glass bottles. I received my samples in the plastic containers, but from what I can tell, the glass bottles are much more impressive. Not only do they have a more quality feel tot them, but they also come with a dropper cap that makes refilling a breeze, as well as a cool black vape band that you can use to accessorize your tank.

The plastic bottles are your plain, run-of-the-mill needle bottles. Like the larger glass bottles they feature the Medusa Juice logo and flavor name on the front, while on the back you have the typical nicotine and age restriction warnings, a list of ingredients, nicotine strength, batch number and expiration date. The main drawback of these plastic containers is that the needle is so thin that it actually requires quite a bit of strength to squeeze a few drops of juice through it. This only gets worse when there’s only a bit of e-liquid left in the bottle. Hopefully, Medusa Juice will find a better option soon.

Now on to the flavors: Medusa Juice has no less than 11 tobacco juices available, and having been searching for the ultimate tobacco vape ever since I started using e-cigarettes, I couldn’t help but try a few of them to see if they’re any good.

Euthenya 555 Tobacco – This one really took me back to my early vaping days, when 555 and RY4 were some of the best tobacco flavors available. I remember the 555 from Bloog blew me away with its mild tobacco flavor strong nuttiness, but I hadn’t vaped the once popular flavor in a while before this Medusa Juice version. It was just as I remembered. A smokey tobacco with a bold peanut aftertaste, and no artificial aftertaste whatsoever. With the gourmet tobacco juices and Naturally Extracted Tobacco e-liquids all the rage these days, 555 is not as popular as it one was, but for anyone looking for a nutty tobacco, it’s still one of the best options.

Caerrus Butterscotch Tobacco – I’ve tried my share of unique flavor combinations since I started vaping, but Caerrus  was my first butterscotch and tobacco blend. I’m a big fan of sweet tobaccos, but for some reason, Caerrus didn’t really do it for me. It was just too sweet, so much so that the oungent tobacco was reduced to a barely-there undertone. It works great as a dessert flavor, if that’s what you’re looking for, but it’s definitely not my kind of tobacco.

Hypnos Smooth Virginia – By far the most authentic tobacco flavor of all the Medusa Juice flavors I tried. No addedd sweetness or artificial taste, just the mild taste of gold Virginia tobacco. Don’t get the wrong idea though, this won’t taste like your favorite brand of tobacco cigarettes. There’s no combustion in e-cigs, so the best you can hope for is an accurate taste of Virginia tobacco, cured, but not burned.

From the vast number of Medusa Juice dessert flavors, I opted for two of my favorite sweets – custard and cookie dough.

Achelous Original Custard – One of the sweetest dessert flavors I have ever tried, second only to the Liquideo Think Freud. I have a sweet tooth, though, so for me this was a true dessert vape. The smell alone made my mouth water, but the taste actually exceeded my expectations – Achelous actually tastes like creamy home-made vanilla custard (no pie, though). Its sweetness probably makes this juice a great alternative for actual desserts if you’re watching your weight, but it also makes it a poor choice for an all-day vape.

Matton Cookie Dough – Another great dessert vape, one that actually feels “like you are licking the spoon from a freshly made batch” of chocolate chip cookie dough, just like the description on the Medusa Juice website mentions. And yes, you can actually taste the chocolate! I would go as far as to put Matton on par with gourmet cookie flavors, like Miss Samoa from Fa-Q Vapes, only this one’s actually twice as cheap.

Finally, from the Medusa Juice drinks range, I went for the Absinthe, a spirit I have yet to try. So yeah, I was in for a surprise.

Dionysus Absinthe – The smell of this crazy concoction is so strong it could probably clear a stuffy nose. Anise is definitely the strongest note in this juice, but I also detected some herbs as well, although I couldn’t tell you what they were. The Medusa Juice recipe for Dionysus Absinthe is apparently a secret, but they do list anise and wormwood as two of the ingredients, juts so you can get an idea of what it tastes like. It wasn’t my cup of tea, to be honest, the anise was way too strong for my liking, but this is just a personal opinion. But if you like the drink, I suggest you give it a try.

I was pretty pleased with the Medusa Juice e-liquids I tried. Some were better than others, obviously, but ultimately that’s a matter of taste. What is important is that overall, the juice was of good quality, especially for the relatively low price the company charges. You can get a 10 ml bottle for £2.49 ($3.77) and a 30 ml bottle for £7.49 ($11.33). That’s a lot cheaper than most premium juice costs these days, so if you get the chance, be sure to give these guys a try.

    If there was an option of no stars I’d use it…..I recently received an order of 15 10ml bottles from this company. 11 boxed and 4 unboxed. when I started to remove the bottles it was immediately apparent that the bottles were filled to different level. So I unpacked the other 11 bottles and lined them up and the were all different markedly different from most filled to least filled, so I took photos of the bottles so that anyone could see the difference. I then phoned the company and spoke to a guy called Jack, he put me on hold whilst he spoke to his managers, and then came back with maybe the bottles that were filed the most were end of batch. I couldn’t accept this rebuttal, as there was such a difference in the fill levels. So he gave the names of his managers Liam and Max and suggested that I email them with the pics, as they were very quick to respond to issues, which I did. Needless to say I had no response. So I called the next day, spoke to Jack again, only to find no-one had even read my email. Which he then did and then agreed with me that there was a marked difference. He then intimated that he would speak to his managers show them the email and get them to respond. Yet by the end of the day yet again this hadn’t happened. At the present moment I am in the process of trying to find an email address for Ashley Bird the CEO so that I can inform him of my issue and the way it is or rather it isn’t being handled by his Customer Services team. If I found those details, and not heard from back from Customer services I shall invoke my rights under The Consumer Contracts Regulations, June 2014 and send my delivery back and request a full refund including the cost of Shipping.. Needless to say I only recommend that vapers give this company a very wide birth as there are a heap of better companies out there. I cant speak in terms of the quality of the Medusa product but the quantities leave more than a lot to be desired, and the aftersales service is shockingly poor.
