For several months I noticed people discussing Killer Kustard 
across Reddit threads, YouTube reviews, and vaping community forums. Everyone seemed to fawn over this e-liquid - Vapetasia Killer Kustard, or "the King of Custards." I had always been more of a fruit or mint person, so I wasn't sure how much I would enjoy a dessert-based e-liquid. However, after hearing the name from all corners of vaping discussion, I finally caved in to my curiosity.
Alert: Before we embark, we request minors and non-puffers to keep off! Nicotine is addictive and harmful.
So I finally pulled the trigger and purchased a 100ml bottle of Killer Kustard E-Liquid - and here is my 100% honest, first-person experience of using it for more than a week.
Packaging and Initial Thoughts
The packaging was noticeable right away. Vapetasia has always done a good job with that clean, premium look — a yellow bottle with custard dripping imagery gives rich dessert vibes even before the first puff.
The Very First Puff Felt So Smooth
I filled my tank, allowed the cotton to saturate for a couple of minutes, and performed my first inhale.
And wow — the Vanilla Custard Vape Juice was much smoother than I was expecting. I have experienced vapes that were dessert flavors that were too heavy or too sweet and sticky, the Killer Kustard became the fulfilling dessert based vape — not sugary sweet, not bland.
This was more like a dessert you could enjoy all day than something you could enjoy from time to time.
Flavor Profile Outline: Simple Done Right
Vapetasia Killer Kustard doesn’t try too hard -- and that’s the greatest strength of the flavor.
Main Flavor: Creamy vanilla custard
Secondary Notes: Light buttery sweetness with some eggy richness
Aftertaste: Smooth, creamy, and cozy.
There are no fruit spins or any sort-of complicated flavor layers -- it’s just delicious custard. Somehow, the simplicity works. The kind of dessert flavor e-juice that wins you over not through novelty, but for being what it is off of the counter.
I used it over the week with coffee one morning after breakfast, with my meal after lunch and with some dessert flavors after dinner even late at night it blended well with all of my moods.
Vapor Production and Throat Hit
Just as a reference point, I used a sub-ohm setup with a 0.2Ω coil at about 65W.
The vapor production was dense and fulfilling - it produced that classic creamy cloud you look for in high-VG dessert flavor e-juice. The throat hit was mild and consistent with a warm, smooth draw that wasn't harsh at all.
I was even chain-vaping it and it didn't burn my throat or gunk up my coils fast - this was one thing I can say I appreciate about sugary vapes too. The refinement of Vapetasia's blend quality definitely shows here.
Killer Kustard Nicotine Strength- Finding the Sweet Spot
Killer Kustard by Vapetasia has a variety of nicotine strengths- specifically, 0mg, 3mg, and 6mg.
Personally, I went with the 3mg nicotine strength, which felt just right in my sub-ohm setup, as it exhibited a light throat hit, with still the same creamy feel. If you prefer a stronger throat hit, I can very well imagine the 6mg version would be right up your alley.
If you are using a pods system, or simply want a sharper kick in your throat hit, I would also encourage you to check out the nic salt version of Killer Kustard E-Liquid, and experience the same delicious flavor in a more concentrated way.
Killer Kustard Flavors - It’s More than Just Vanilla
I have tried the Strawberry Killer Kustard and it gave me strong strawberry shortcake vibes - still creamy, just a bit fruity. Each flavor really maintains Vapetasia's impressive smoothness.
Is It Better than Other Dessert Vapes?
I’ve had my fair share of dessert-based e-liquids in the past, from Custard Monster to Dinner Lady’s Lemon Tart, but Killer Kustard Vape feels like an entirely different class.
Good dessert e-liquids coat your taste buds with sweetness and those scratchy crème brulee-like flavors of warmed up, fake vanilla. Killer Kustard takes a different, elevated approach to their e-liquids - it reminds me more of the memory of homemade vanilla pudding than a manufactured custard.
Another positive is it is incredibly coil-friendly unlike other dessert e-liquids. After several refills I saw far less caramelized buildup.
How It Integrates Into My Everyday Vaping Routine
Prior to this, nearly all my vapes were fruit-based — mango, grape, or perhaps menthol blend. But Killer Kustard Vape surprised me.
These days, I do tend to reach for it when I'm in the mood for a relaxing and decadent experience — most often after eating or while getting to sleep. It's the vaporized version of a dessert ritual.
It's a surprise at all, because I used to completely ignore the dessert vapes.
The Good and the Bad (in my experience)
The Good
- Incredibly smooth, creamy flavor
- Well balanced sweetness and not too much sweetness
- Great vapor production
- Softer throat hit and a dependable experience
- Lots of Killer Kustard flavors to choose from
- Gentle on the coils, even as someone who vapes several times in a row
The Bad
- May be a little too subdued for vapers who like to vape bold, punchy flavors
- The simplicity may not sit well for those that appreciate many layers of flavor
- A little too rich to vape in the summer if you prefer lighter flavors.
Reasons to Believe the Hype with Killer Kustard
After a week of using it, I can confidently say the hype around Killer Kustard E-Liquid stands up to the hype.
This vape juice is simple and well executed, which is a shockingly hard thing to do. The Vanilla Custard Vape Juice is real, smooth, and decadent without being too pretentious. Vapetasia was able to capture the ideal balance of creamy and sweet that's ideal for a desert vape.
