The motto at TeaUp Vapory is “Tea, Reinvented.” It sure is. Usually, I like my green tea moderately steeped in a cup without milk or sugar so I can drink it slowly on a cold day. There is another option: tea vapor. Come to love a new tea-time tradition or decide that teatime is anytime with TeaUp Vapory’s selection of unique e juices.

TeaUp Vapory Background

Sure, the Los Angeles coffee scene probably dominates. Hasn’t coffee taken over everywhere? There are coffee shops on every corner of this great Californian city and cities worldwide, leaving humble tea shops in the dust with their half-sweet, lactose-free Americano pour-overs and Grande double-espresso machiattos with soy.

That’s okay: tea drinkers are happy to enjoy a more restful environment and a simpler drink anyway. They can extend that feeling of relaxation beyond the shop with tea-style e juices too such as the flavors at TeaUp Vapory, developed and made in Los Angeles, California, by people who appreciate natural and authentic vapor flavor.

Flavors at TeaUp Vapory

Jasmine Green Tea, Honey Black Tea, Green Tea Latte: don’t they sound heavenly? Tea drinkers can smell them now. Jasmine is light and floral but green tea adds roasted notes so the two stand in comfortable contrast, just as they would on your tongue if you were sipping some.

Honey Black Tea is simple: a true black tea flavor, such as you would establish by steeping for a little while, but not too long or tannins would settle over the top. Add a touch of honey to sweeten the brew naturally and don’t taint the result with milk. Honey tastes subtly different from sugar, so the people at Tea Up took the time to create a distinct sweetness.

A heavier drink, Green Tea Latte isn’t a “frappuccino” either. That would be seriously rich and dense. No: Tea Up’s Latte possesses the flavorful quality of Matcha which should provide notes of almond to the discerning palate.

More about Tea Up Vapory

Tea Up Vapory’s e juices are relatively dense which makes them perfect for sub ohm vaping tanks and high-watt mods. They contain some propylene glycol, but vegetable glycerin dominates. They also contain natural and artificial flavors, so although styles seem natural, they might have been reproduced synthetically.

E juices from Tea Up Vapory potentially contains traces of nuts because of the vegetable glycerin they use. These are becoming highly trendy e liquids. Vapers love to jump on a bandwagon just as tea-drinkers and health food fanatics do. If this was a supplement, people would be popping Jasmine tablets like crazy, but vaping is more civilized if you ask me.

Comparing with the Industry

While Tea Up Vapory takes the world by storm for a while, it’s worth noting that there are lots of other great tea vapes out there when the three featured above sell out. ROAR lists a prolific assortment of tea styles such as mango, raspberry, and green tea with or without fruits. Ahlusion loves its Boba Teas and other, lighter types.

At Vigilante Vapors, it’s clear that Earl Grey is the favorite while Highbrow refuses to decide between green and chai. ACRAE Vapour makes a green tea style with goji berries. Other participants include DB Liquids with several types, Yaeliq, and Classified.

What’s So Appealing about Tea?

Why do vapers love tea vapes so much (or want to love them, like coffee drinkers who wish they could switch to herbal tea)? In the vape world, you don’t have to worry about caffeine and there’s no such thing as a $5 drink. You could potentially vape $5 worth of e juice in an afternoon or more, but that’s several hours worth of vaping.

No: the appeal is manifold. Tea is a dignified drink; a healthy sip; a light tipple. Going out for tea sounds sophisticated, even with a plate of scones and cream beside your plate and decadent intentions. Tea vapes are light and the flavor that lingers on your tongue has the potential to be soft and nutty, floral, fruity: subtle. In comparison with coffee vapes, this lasting after-taste is smooth but vape makers of either style can get it wrong. Either flavor has the potential to be overly acidic, sour, or stale.

But with an adjustable system and excellent coils containing pure organic cotton, vapers can really play around with airflow, temperature, or watts to bring out the layers of a well-made tea-type e juice. With a gourmet type such as Tea Up Vapory e liquid, you should find that it’s more what you do with the system that affects flavor than the e liquid itself which is likely to be excellent stuff.
