Once more, we venture into the realm of disposable vapes, and this time we delve into the IVG Bar. IVG (I Vape Great) is a well-established and highly successful company based in the UK, with a global presence through its satellite offices. While their expertise lies in e-liquids and nic salts, they have ventured into the hardware domain in the past, such as with the IVG sealed pod kit. However, the IVG Bar marks their foray into the world of disposable vapes.

As someone who has reviewed various IVG e-liquids, including the Crushed Range, the 50/50 Vape Juice, and the IVG Juicy Range, I have high expectations for the IVG Bar given the company’s track record.

Ease of use, leak-free operation, and exceptional flavors are what I seek in disposable vapes. With the IVG Bar, there are now 22 flavors to choose from, including a mix of fruits, iced variations, drinks, and even a cookie base. It’s worth noting that this review has been updated to include the recently introduced half dozen flavors.

In terms of specifications and features, the IVG Bar boasts a 500mAh internal battery, claiming to offer approximately 600 puffs per device. The sleek and compact packaging contains just the IVG Bar itself, eliminating the need for an elaborate unboxing experience. A Quick Start Guide is also unnecessary as it’s as simple as unwrapping the device, removing the bung, and vaping away—truly effortless.

For this review, I received 10 IVG Bar devices directly from the company, and as always, my thoughts and opinions remain unbiased by any freebies or samples.

Let’s delve into the flavors and performance of the IVG Bar:

1. IVG Bar Raspberry Lemonade: IVG describes it as a blend of refreshingly fizzy, cool lemonade and juicy, fresh raspberries. The aroma is delightful, with a vibrant and fruity scent upon removing the bung. However, the inhale doesn’t deliver the same level of freshness or fizziness I anticipated. While the lemonade is discernible, the fruit leans towards the sweeter side. The cooling agent is adequately balanced but slightly overwhelms the flavor.
2. IVG Bar Fuji Apple Melon: IVG promotes this flavor as a crisp combination of Japanese apples and juicy melon. The initial inhale offers a strong cooling sensation, followed by the dominant melon taste. The apple notes emerge more subtly on the exhale, playing a supporting role. The cooling agent reappears, intensifying the cooling effect. If you enjoy iced melon vapes, this flavor will likely satisfy your cravings.
3. IVG Bar Strawberry Raspberry Pink Apple: According to IVG, this flavor is packed with fresh strawberries, tangy raspberries, and a sweet, pink apple aftertaste. The scent exudes a strong aroma of candied strawberries, enticingly sweet. However, the inhale disappoints slightly, lacking the distinct flavors of the individual fruits. Instead, it presents as a syrupy and overly sweet amalgamation. The cooling effect persists, catering to fans of icy fruit vapes.
4. IVG Bar Energy Ice: IVG presents this flavor as an electric blend of your favorite energy drink with a cooling exhale. The inhale is refreshingly vibrant but leans towards being overly fresh, somewhat obscuring the flavor. On the back of the taste buds, the taste of the energy drink becomes more discernible. The exhale offers a slight improvement in flavor, but the cooling agent remains overpowering for my palate.
5. IVG Bar Raspberry Orange Mix: This flavor promises a tantalizing blend of tangy oranges and ripe raspberries. The aroma upon unwrapping the device is inviting, with hints of both fruits. However, the taste falls short of expectations. While the raspberry flavor is somewhat distinguishable, the orange element is subtle and lacks the characteristic zestiness. The overall experience is mildly sweet but lacks the vibrant citrus punch.
6. IVG Bar Spearmint: For those who enjoy a classic and refreshing spearmint flavor, this IVG Bar variant aims to deliver just that. The inhale offers a cool and clean taste, reminiscent of minty freshness. The spearmint flavor is prominent and authentic, providing a pleasant and palate-cleansing experience. The exhale maintains the minty essence, leaving a lingering coolness on the taste buds. This flavor is a reliable choice for mint enthusiasts.
7. IVG Bar Lemon Custard: IVG tempts us with a blend of zesty lemons and smooth custard in this flavor profile. The scent hints at a creamy and citrusy delight. However, the inhale disappoints, as the lemon flavor falls flat, lacking the expected tanginess. The custard aspect is subtle and creamy but doesn’t fully compensate for the lackluster lemon. The overall taste is pleasant, albeit milder than anticipated.
8. IVG Bar Blue Raspberry Ice: In this flavor, IVG combines the sweetness of blue raspberries with a cooling ice sensation. The initial inhale offers a burst of blue raspberry flavor, reminiscent of candy-like sweetness. The cooling effect swiftly follows, providing a refreshing contrast. The exhale maintains the fruity essence, with the cooling sensation lingering pleasantly. This flavor delivers on its promise and will likely appeal to fans of fruity and icy combinations.
9. IVG Bar Mango Lychee Ice: For those craving a tropical experience, IVG presents this blend of ripe mangoes and exotic lychee with a cooling twist. The inhale is dominated by the sweet and juicy mango flavor, instantly transporting you to a sun-soaked paradise. The lychee undertones provide a subtle floral note, adding complexity to the profile. The cooling agent accentuates the refreshing aspect, creating a well-balanced and enjoyable vaping experience.
10. IVG Bar Pina Colada: IVG aims to capture the essence of a classic Pina Colada cocktail with this flavor. The aroma evokes the tropical combination of pineapple and coconut. However, the flavor falls short of replicating the cocktail experience. The pineapple flavor lacks intensity, resulting in a subdued tropical taste. The coconut element is milder than expected, leaving the overall profile feeling slightly lackluster. While it’s pleasant, it doesn’t fully embody the Pina Colada essence.
11. Overall, the IVG Bar offers a wide range of flavors to cater to various preferences. The device itself is user-friendly and compact, making it convenient for on-the-go vaping. However, while some flavors excel in delivering their intended profiles, others fall short in terms of intensity and complexity. The cooling agent, present in many flavors, can sometimes overpower the taste, potentially masking the nuances of the individual flavors.
12. If you enjoy simple, straightforward fruit flavors with a cooling twist, the IVG Bar may be a suitable choice. However, if you seek more intricate and robust profiles, you may find some of the flavors underwhelming. Nonetheless, the IVG Bar provides a decent disposable vape experience, particularly for those who prioritize convenience and ease of use.
