Great if you like complex tobacco flavours. I usually chose a higher nicotine content but the 12mg in this was fine…flavour, throat hit and clouds were all satisfying.
Unusual taste which is hard to describe but very nice.
By Vape from UK
Has a nice deep tobacco truffle flavour, will definitely purchase again
By Attila from Scotland
I remember Five Pawns from my first vaping era and since they are from the USA I had high expectations and this just delivered all of them.
Beautiful mixture of flavours, smooth vaping experience. I wish it was a little cheaper, or I will just try to get the shortfill.
One of the best juices I have vaped.

By ME from @HOME
Simply put, one of the best tobacco flavours out there . Smooth rich and very tasty.
A Flavour i never had before and probably very unique .
Hard to explain, so instead go buy it & try it :)
Smooth earthy tobacco . A+++ Will buy again

I got this based on other reviews and was not disappointed! Fantastic and rich flavour, very smooth juice. Came in a fancy container and I thought it was a nice touch. It is good on the coils and has great vapour production. I am using it in a Drag X and in my smaller mouth to lung Innokin. I was looking for an all day vape and I think I found a winner! Will order more.

Absolutely best surprise for me . As I don't like too sweet liquid ,this was so perfect purchase. I followed the hype in the comments, didn't let me down . package it self is so elegant , wouldn't be bothered to pull it out even at the fancy restaurant table . Taste is AMAZING ! I accidentally mixed it with my double espresso liquid and it turned out exactly what I was looking for .it's a bit salty in the way of the price , could live without beautiful package as at the end of the day taste and hit what's matters the most .it's not gonna be my daily drive as I'm not rich yet ,but definitely now and then will take some relaxing puffs on the hard day's evening.

It's difficult to describe the flavour (as other reviews here say) - it's a complex/sophisticated/rich flavour definitely not 'berry' sweet and my wife says it smells of vanilla. I mix it with my favourite menthol (Breaking Vape by BordO2) and it works really well. The only downside is, it's a bit expensive, perhaps a case of you get what you pay for.

I usually wouldn't go for any tobacco types.. But the combination of the concentrates got me interested.. I wasnt disappointed at all... Abit pricey but niiiiice
By Malthouse from Bradninch
Been looking for a sweet liquid for a while, not overly "Disney sweet" or as is often the case "air-freshener sweet" but something that tastes like the thing! This is a really convincing walnut hazelnut chocolate kind of sweet.
It's a bit heavy by itself for long periods but blended with a pure tobacco such as OFE Original Bold or Puff Dragon Trad, it evolves into something cigar shaped...dessert cigars!
By DIRTYLEEDS from Leeds
Pretty nice e liquid, no denying that, flavoursome but super expensive for what it is.
By FiveThou from Leics.
I'm a fan of Five Pawns' products, and I slowly worked my way through all their flavours. I tried this one last, as the tobacco flavour listed in this put me off. I was more than a bit surprised to discover that it's my favourite of the lot! It's absolutely gorgeous. Has a flavour like nothing I've tasted before. Can't really describe how great this is. It's a taste of an expensive coffee with a fine cigar in an exclusive gentleman's club in a long gone era in a mystical place... or something. Bloody lovely. Maybe my all-time fave, although I think it's very much an autumny/wintery flavour, and I'll probably have it less during the warmer months. I can't recommend it highly enough when the nights start to draw in, though.

I’m really surprised by all the negative reviews on here of this. I have tried virtually all of the supposed ‘tobacco’ flavoured juices and I struggled for ages finding anything decent. They are usually too sweet or just plain nasty. Black flag risen is by far the best I’ve tried, and I order it every time now. It’s complex, sweetish but not overpowering, with savoury notes, ideal for winter and ideal for those trying to substitute cigarettes.
By Snowdoggy from South Yorkshire
I really don't know where to start on just how good Five Pawns juices are.
This is the third I have tried, alongside Castle Long and Symmetry and they have all been exceptional.
Black Flag is very complex, thick and rich with many layers. Sweet, yet also savoury. Very very moorish. Superb clouds too.
I have seen many reviews saying Five Pawns juices are overpriced but I say you get what you pay for and compared to what you pay for one pack of cigarettes it is well worth it for the pleasure of such a special vape.
Beautiful packaging too. Makes you feel really pampered.
I've vaped nearly the whole bottle of Black Flag this evening. I had a sample of it two nights ago and decided to keep the rest of it for the weekend. I'm so glad I did.
Keep making these excellent, layered blend juices Five Pawns.
Vaped on Cool Fire IV Plus with Aspire Cleito Pro Tank at 65w
By Her0inmy0wnmind from Cannock Staffs
I used to be in to mint/menthols but I ended back smoking for 12 months.
This time trying, I went straight for the mint/menthols and they were not doing it for me.
After looking around and YouTubing I eventually went for a tobacco liquid which I was not keen to do.
This liquid is the first I’ve tried in a tobacco flavouring of a few I’ve ordered.
On first trying, I got a popcorn taste like a toffee butterkist with a slight tobacco aftertaste.
After a few days using it my tastebuds are now getting a caramelly sweet coffee with tobacco. The tobacco is not a horrible taste, it’s subtle and I feel like I’ve had a cigarette if that makes sense?
THIS REALLY IS HITTING THE SPOT!
Try this if you’re trying to give up. A review won’t do this the justice. Yes, it’s expensive but if it keeps your craving at bay it’s worth it. I will be ordering more definitely.
Snowwolf - innokin T20-S tank - 1.5ohm coil MTL - 18W
By Toby from Bristol
What can I say other than agree with everyone else- delicious!
I don't taste huge amounts of tobacco but what I do get is nutty, mocha chocolate.
I've been vaping for a while and tend to stick to berry flavoured liquids but fancied a bit of a change up. Thinking this could now become my daily vape it's that good.
Try at your peril because believe me, you'll become instantly hooked!

After generally sub-ohm-ing this is a welcome change. Perfect for those lazy vaping moments. I have it on my 2nd set up, Vaporesso Target at 20W with Nautilus 2 tank and damn it hits the spot. Beautiful flavour and quells any need to smoke actual cigarettes. Rich and divine, Highly recommended.
By Mick R from Scottish Borders
As others have said, this is the Rolls Royce of eLiquids.
It even surpasses my favourites from Manabush.
Simply put, this is a complex, sublime tasting eLiquid. I really cannot tell the difference between this and "Original" and I will happily enjoy either.
All vapees owe it to themselves to try this at least once.
Just Epic!

By Hawker from Paris
Certainly the most delicious juice i've had to taste to date.
Complex flavours with a touch of tobacco, cream and subtle sweetness.
And what a packaging!
My 'Rolls' of juices.
By Grizzly from London
Must-try for everyone, I don't care who you are or what you like- this is unlike any other juice I've ever tried.
Even if it doesn't become your favourite vape of all time (nearly impossible if you ask me) you will definitely appreciate the one of a kind flavor, the richness, complexity and perfect balance of this masterpiece.
I have been looking for a sweet tobacco flavor for ages, hated every single one of them. But this.. I mean words truly cannot express it. Divine!!!
Expensive, yes, but WORTH EVERY PENNY!!!
By Bobvape43 from N.Ireland
If you think you don't like tobacco flavours....think again!
This has overtaken Dinner Lady Lemon Tart as my ALL TIME favourite juice.
Great in a sub ohm or mtl tank..
I personally think relatively low wattages is a necessity for this juice to appreciate the complex flavour arrangement!
Nautilus / 1.6 ohm / 13 watts......wow
iSub Apex / 0.5 ohm / 27 watts...... wow
A massive thumbs up to Five Pawns for such an exquisite creation and to Vape Club for their excellent service (as always).
By Nomoreluke from Bournemouth
Hands down the best liquid I have ever tried. Tobacco comes through perfectly and they've absolutely nailed the flavour. Expensive but worth the money!! Here's a tip... After a tank full of this stuff, add some Loaded Donuts juice. The tobacco flavour in this is strong enough to "taint" the following tank of Loaded Donuts enough that, for most of the tank, you'll get a tobacco/coffee/donut combination of flavours. What's not to like about that?? Haha
By CJ from Lancashire
Ive tried so many tobacco e-liquids and this one is by far the best its smokey sweet honey like tobacco when you breath the vape out your nose it feels like real tobacco smoke and it leaves that same after taste which you get straight after a cigarette but a lot sweeter than a cigarette. This liquid is a lot more richer than other tobacco e liquids ive tried and it seems like you dont need to vape as much of it. This E-Liquid is a bit more expensive £24 for 30 Ml but because it is a richer vape maybe you dont need to vape it as much and it will work out the same price. Im rating this 9 stars out of 10 because maybe in the future I will find a better one who knows..
By Mikko from London
There was a previous review that mentioned the packaging so I guess that's a good place to start. When I received the package from vapeclub I was blown away by the amount of detail Five Pawns puts into their work. I am a bit of a stationery aficionado and the initial thing I paid attention was the quality of the cardboard tube the bottle was packaged in. The top part slides out with ease and it feels like "proper" rather than flimsy gimmick. Feels a bit similar experience to unboxing a high-end whisky bottle.
I purchased my first bottle of this liquid with my first sub-ohm vaping kit. At that point I was still on 24mg/18mg liquids and using a pen for vaping. I remember reading the warning from vapeclub "higher than 6mg might taste harsh on sub-ohm" but being a maverick I ignored the rules and purchased 12mg liquid. Naturally I didn't read any of the instructions for my sub-ohm kit either (especially about letting new coil soak a bit before starting vaping). I would imagine you could achieve the initial taste and feeling that I had by burning coffee, mixing it with rust, smearing it over a power drill and inserting it into your throat.
The experience nearly put me off sub-ohm vaping but after reading the instruction manual of the vape kit and diluting the liquid (I picked up some unflavoured 0mg liquid) I decided to give it another go. And boy I am lucky that I did! The taste was nothing I had experienced before with complexity to rival sitting in a cigar lounge with cuban and fresh espresso (and this was the diluted version).
Later I got the real deal (3mg version) as a gift and as expected the taste was even better. To me the taste is well balanced with no single facet of the taste being overpowering. If you are in business for a bit of luxury this is definitely one to try. Rich coffee and tobacco with different sweet notes from caramel to nutty chocolate. Previous review described a dry taste in mouth and I fully agree with that as well. There is a strange contradiction in this vape with rich cream + dry taste / feel, which adds to the experience.
Summary: excellent vape for that lazy Sunday morning with thick newspaper and no hurry in the world. I am giving this 9/10 with one star lost on the pricing. While I understand that quality ingredients, packaging and process is expensive the lost star is more of a protest for the fact that I cannot make this my every day vape.
By Mazza from UK
One of the most unique juices I've tasted. Really complex flavour profile and really smooth too with zero throat hit (N.B. I've tried only the 0.3 mg). The flavour itself is a rich, creamy, nutty, woody kind of taste but quite subtle and not overpowering with a very pleasant tobacco after taste. Densest clouds of any juice I've tried, which suggests high quality ingredients.
The packaging on this makes you feel like you're cracking open a bottle of vintage wine. It has the batch number and bottle number and everything which makes it feel like a very unique product! Mine was lot #6, bottle 201/500. Even has the creator's signature on it! I imagine a future where they offer you this sort of thing as an amuse-bouche at boujie gourmet restaurants.
Only real downsides are the high price and the fact that it can leave your mouth slightly dry, although this is not unpleasant especially for those of us who are used to smoking strong tobacco.
Overall the price makes it unsuitable for an all day vape but great for a treat every now and again. I bought this a few months ago and have been vaping a tank or two in between cheaper juices. I probably haven't been doing it justice on my Kanger Subvod with an SSOCC 0.5 Ohm coil; I imagine it would be even better on a mech mod or a temperature controlled device.
TLDR: Uniquely flavourful, dense clouds, really expensive!
