Liquid State E-Juice Review – Full Line

Jun 22, 2022Updated Sep 17, 20264 min readReviews

Liquid State is known for flavors inspired by different US states, wrapped in some of the best-looking packaging of its day. When we wrote this review in 2017, it was a favorite with ZampleBox members and tended to sell out fast whenever it came in.

We finally tried all six flavors. Liquid State is not sold on our site today, so read this as a record of the line as it was then and as a guide to the flavor families it covers.

The setup: Smok Alien 220W mod with a TFV8 Big Baby Beast tank at 100 watts and 0.167 ohms.

The six flavors

Coney Cake

Described as a funnel cake pastry topped with powdered sugar and rich vanilla bean ice cream.

The bottle was empty by the time we sat down to write, which says plenty. The main note is the light, flaky bakery taste of funnel cake, followed by a gentle vanilla and a hint of sugar. The ice cream and sugar stay in the background, so if you like pastry flavors without a wall of sweetness, this one is for you. A funnel cake vape sounds ordinary, but this was a fresh take on a favorite dessert.

Cali Colada

Described as a creamy, tropical piña colada with ripe mango, sweet pineapple and hints of guava.

This was the flavor we most wanted to try, and it did not disappoint. It tastes like a real piña colada: creamy on the inhale, then a burst of tropical fruit on the exhale. Focus on any one fruit and you will find it. It is a clever blend, and the first one to reach for if you love tropical and pineapple vapes.

Orange Dream

Described as orange sherbet with silky vanilla cream.

This one first arrived in a ZampleBox, and we reordered it because the first bottle disappeared so quickly. It leans hard on the orange: juicy orange on the inhale, with the vanilla only starting to show on the exhale. It is a great flavor, just not an even orange-and-cream blend, so it suits orange and citrus fans best.

Apple Butter

Described as sweet Washington apples slow-cooked to caramelized perfection and blended with spiced cinnamon.

This one hit close to home. Our reviewer is from Washington, has relatives with apple orchards, and remembers a grandfather’s cinnamon apple butter on toast for Sunday breakfast. Maybe that is a little biased, but it earned 5 stars. Expect a buttery apple inhale and a good amount of cinnamon on the exhale, very close to the homemade version.

Sweet Leaf

Described as a Georgia peach twist on sweet tea lemonade.

To be blunt, it is a peach tea. We are not big tea fans, but this one is heavy on the peach, which won us over, even though we could not pick up any lemonade. The inhale and exhale are even, with peach tea on both, and it is remarkably smooth. Worth a look if you like tea vapes or peach flavors.

Cowboy Cobbler

Described as a freshly baked fruit cobbler.

This one took a minute. We are huge cobbler fans and it is tasty, but the fruit bounces between peach and apple. Some people taste one, some taste the other, and to us it tastes like both. The inhale brings doughy cobbler with a hint of cinnamon, and the exhale brings the mystery fruit with more cinnamon. Still a great product, and a treat for dessert lovers.

The verdict: 4.8 out of 5 stars

We gave Liquid State’s lineup an overall 4.8. It is a top-quality line with beautiful packaging, and every flavor has a clear idea behind it. Apple Butter and Cali Colada were the standouts, and even the hard-to-pin-down Cowboy Cobbler was a pleasure.

Apple Butter also comes up in our Milkshake E-Liquids review. If these flavor profiles sound like you, set your favorite flavor families in the Zamplebox Club and get a curated box in the same style every month.

Bottles worth trying

Liquid State is not in our shop, but these pastry flavors are in the same family as Coney Cake and Cowboy Cobbler.
