Terpenes are found in essential oils and hold numerous medical benefits. Terpenes (and terpenoids) are aromatic organic compounds found in many plants and even some insects. Plants developed terpenes to ward off herbivores that might eat them and to attract helpful predators and pollinators. Cannabis has naturally high levels of terpenes. Pungent cannabis flowers get their strong odours from being rich in terpenes.

ADV / All Day Vape: Literally an e-liquid with such an appealing flavour - be it complex or simple, that you can happily vape it ALL DAY!

Have you ever vaped your favourite flavour, and suddenly noticed you can’t identify it any longer?

Or, even worse, found you can’t taste anything or that your tongue is so numb to the sensation of taste – that anything with flavour is just bland?

Then you’ve likely experienced vaper’s tongue. No need to panic, you’ve got this!
In this article you’ll find out what causes vaper’s tongue and what to do about it if you get it.
 

What Is Vaper’s Tongue?

The term vaper’s tongue - also known as Vaper’s Fatigue Syndrome (Yes, we just made that up!) is used to cover a range of taste related ailments in reference to vaping - more specifically a proclaimed inability to identify flavour in vapourized e-juice.

While we don’t want to alarm anyone - as causes of vaper's tongue include dehydration, vitamin deficiency or illness, in most cases, the condition is temporary and soon resolves itself. There are a number of solutions for this common annoyance, so no need to panic!

Creativity and imagination is part of the fun of flavour pairing. Be adventurous and open to new flavours, go ahead and try unique combinations... You never know... You may just create the next big flavour trend!

Try to avoid combining too many flavours together as this can result in muting flavours to the point where flavours are cancelled out. Read more
