Blends on the ALIBARBAR INGOT 9000 Puffs and UMIN SLICKPLUS 10000 Puffs are built from layers. This guide explains top, middle and base notes so you can read a flavour before you buy. (See also how flavours are built.)
Top Notes
The top note is what you taste first, usually the brightest part of the blend, like a citrus or berry hit on the inhale. It sets the first impression.
Our tropical flavour guide shows bright top notes in action.
Middle Notes
The middle note carries the body, the part that defines the fruit or dessert character through the draw. It is where most of the taste lives.
See fruit flavour round-up for bodies built on different fruits.
Base Notes
The base note is the soft tail, often cream, menthol or a deeper fruit, that lingers on the exhale. It rounds the blend.
The menthol guide covers cooling base notes.
Why It Matters
Reading notes helps you predict a taste. If you like bright starts, seek citrus tops; if you like smooth ends, seek cream or ice bases.
Our palate matching guide turns this into a picking method.
Flavours to explore
Try a layered blend like the ALIBARBAR INGOT 9000 Strawberry Coconut Watermelon to taste three clear notes, or the UMIN SLICKPLUS 10000 Passion Fruit Mango Lime for a zesty top.
