What can we say about this lovely balanced 70PG/30VG E-Liquid?
Rhubarb Crumble & Custard has been a long time in the making… It has taken a lot of trial and development, to obtain the vape and flavour hit that The Alchemist wanted.
Smooth but rich, tart but sweet, fruity yet mellow, with a rich creamy custard but light enough to not overpower the fruit, and topped by a perfect hint of light crumbly biscuit…The combination of flavours will caress and tantalise your taste buds
We are not going to try and describe the inhale / exhale experience…. It is a complex mix so they change at different times for different people!
Treat yourself to a real taste of the past, Rhubarb Crumble & Custard just like mum used to make…. A classic British Dessert, just waiting to be re-discovered.
Please allow at least 7 days for this E-Liquid to steep and develop (14 days is even better), it will reward you for the wait with a depth of flavour that you can only dream about, and you will then understand why it has become one of our Best Sellers!
The Alchemists Short-Fill E-Liquids are presented in 60ml Gorilla style bottles, part-filled with 50ml of Nicotine Free E-Liquid, designed for the addition of Nicotine by yourself (please see table below for guidelines) or an addition of plain VG. Equating to 10ml in both instances.
When combined with VG based Nicotine (or Plain VG if you require Nicotine Free 0mg/ml) this creates the chosen final ratio of your juice as selected above. Carefully pop off the top of your E-Liquid, add your desired shot of Nicotine boosting compound, pop the caps back on and shake THOROUGHLY until you are certain the liquids are adequately mixed together (a good 5 min shake at least) it will look a little cloudy/airy after this – simply allow this to settle for an hour or so, another quick shake and it should be good to go.
*We can not supply E-Liquids with the desired Nicotine Content. This has to be sourced and added by yourself. We can not supply or advise on where to obtain High Strength (72mg/ml) Nicotine, We can only supply and recommend our compliant 18mg/ml Nicotine Shot.

This E-liquid is undoubtedly my favourite yet. The rhubarbiness (for want of a better word) is absolutely first class. So refreshingly astringent and sweet at the same time, it’s a work of genius. Incredibly more-ish. Bravo!

The Alchemist does it again! I won’t lie, I was worried about this one before it arrived because there’s so much that could go with this sort of flavour. I needn’t have worried though, from the moment I opened the bottle for a sniff the rhubarb scent was the real deal and made my mouth water. Vaping this is exactly like eating rhubarb and custard, I can’t detect much crumble but that’s probably my broken taste buds from years of smoking abuse. The custard is just enough to take away the tartness of the rhubarb and leave you with a very convincing and lovely vape. This has become one of my staples as an all dayer along with the devine egg custard tart. Superb!

Appearance this liquid is on the darker shade of orange or a light washed out brown. Smell when 1st opened smells exactly like opening a bag of sweet shop rhubarb and custard sweets. Taste again is exactly like a bag of rhubarb and custard sweets with the rhubarb flavour on inhale followed by custard after also on inhale and the lingering taste of majority custard on exhale, this liquid is not over powering or chemical tasting and has become my favourite so far. Brilliant mix of flavours albeit i cant taste the crumble but as this is tested from no steeping time the flavour might appear but if not then I’m well chuffed with it being the old time sweets i used to enjoy. Hats off to the alchemist on this one.

Alchemists Rhubarb Crumble and Custard – 18mg ??? 70pg/30vg Tested in a Nova with a 2.4 coil on a gripper at 3.7v Flavour: The initial flavour from this sweet but not sickly liquid is of the old rhubarb and custard sweets. The crumble flavour is subtle but may come through after a longer steep. I upped the volts to 4.3 and the crumble was more pronounced. Vapour: This liquid produces plenty of vapour. Smell: The scent is sweet and rhubarby (is that a word?!). Throat Hit: Adequate throat hit. Verdict: A pleasant sweet vape that brings back memories of childhood sweeties.

I’m not going to go into all the flavour components as others have (they’ve said it correctly and I can’t add anymore)….. but I just want to say that this is an absolutely delicious juice that has satisfied a very fussy vaper! (I was gutted when Pixie Juice stopped trading, but have definitely found a true replacement with Alchemist Cupboard and should really stop wasting my money elsewhere!!!).

Well, all I can say is wow. The flavoring is spot on and makes for a very enjoyable vape. Will be buying again!

I am a big fan of rhubarb and custard in any form but this is a dessert not the sweets type Opening I performed the sniff test as always, gorgeous smell of fruitiness and a bit of vanilla I popped it into a mini nova 2.8 head to this was very enjoyable a taste of homeliness in a vape, definite taste of rhubarb and the custard sweetness coming through, on the exhale I picked up the crumble too I like this very much but for my own taste I would like more rhubarb flavour but taste is very personal and I would try this as it is made first as I may just be a bit weird

The EJuice is a darker caramel colour, which usually to me I associate with “Sickly sweet” “Deep chocolate” and that sort of thing. This is not that. The smell of the liquid itself is shockingly accurate. Good hit of rhubarb (Not overly sweet, not overly bitter) with a hint of the vanilla in the custard associated with it. However you can describe a “Crumble” as smelling, it gets that too. It’s amazing how authentic it is. From a vape standpoint, you get a really solid amount of vapor from this, and the taste is very well balanced. It’s not overly “In your face” with any single component (Nothing is screaming “DON’T LISTEN TO THEM, I’M CUSTARD!!!”). And as you let the vape linger in your mouth a bit you taste and feel each part of it. Considering there’s a LOT that could be done wrong making an Eliquid like this, I’d consider coming up with one as well balanced as this a great accomplishment. Only thing worth mentioning – the flavours are delicate, so if you pop open a bottle after vaping a days worth of Licorice Menthol, things may seem a bit quiet. Will be very interesting to see how this develops as it steeps. You could easily use this as an “All day vape”, it’s not too sweet, but it really is best enjoyed when you’re sitting back and watching the telly by a nice warm fireplace. I don’t see this being the best liquid if you’re going on a big pub night. I see the spirits/hops completely blowing away your tastebuds, and therefor this would se

I’ve always loved the traditional puddings (jam roly-poly, spotted dick, etc) and was really looking forward to this. The rhubarb flavour is unbelievably authentic; you would have no hesitation in knowing what you were vaping. The potential tartness of the rhubarb is nicely offset by the custard and crumble flavours which modify rather than overpower it. A very realistic flavour that brings back memories of times past – a definite thumbs up

To me this doesn’t taste at all like rhubarb crumble, what it does taste like is those rhubarb and custard sweets that you get from newsagents and such. Fantastic, my new favourite juice.
