A TASTE OF creativity

Have you ever fancied yourself an armchair flavour artiste? If so, vape start-up Dripper Labs might just be the service for you.

Words: Emily Malia

Whether you prefer a fruity blend or you’re more partial to a refreshing menthol hit, there’s no denying that flavours are the life blood of the industry.

Without them, we’d all be puffing away on tasteless e-liquids, staving off our cigarette cravings with the occasional hit of…well, nothing.

Luckily, there are brands dotted around the globe dedicated to mass-producing mass-appealing vape juices so we don’t have to suffer this flavourless reality.

But what if you wanted to craft your own e-liquids… is there a way to put yourself in the driver’s seat and become the master of your own figurative mixing bowl?

Well, ambitious start-up Dripper Labs wants to provide this very service to vapers with the help of a first-of-its-kind online platform.

The brand gives curious users access to 70 different ‘hand-crafted and refined’ ingredients that they can freely combine, blend and adjust to their preference. It then uses a ‘bespoke’ automated production line to bring these recipes to life before quickly shipping the unique juices out to their creators.

Speaking on Dripper Labs, co-founder Nick Shrubsall said: “It’s so cool seeing creators make their first sale, getting a hand-check on social media or getting a shout out from their favourite reviewer.”

The brand is also committed to building a strong network of creators, acting almost as a social media platform for its users.

Through the site you can engage with other Dripper Labs members, buy the juices of fellow ‘mixing masters’ and write honest reviews.

Since its launch, more than 1,300 people have signed up to the service and Dripper Labs is gearing up to grow the community even further.
