@Khassy Great review and description of Drago Egyptian Cotton! For the life of me I don't know why more people don't use this stuff (maybe because of its limited availability?), but I love it!

Probably because it's not very well-known. I had never heard of it until last week and could only find it available at one place online, a place called Smoke And Vape in California. I was a bit leery about ordering from a b&m I've never been to or heard anything about but I'm really glad I took a chance, even with the high shipping cost. I emailed them and they said they have reviewed and revised their shipping cost, so hopefully others can get it cheaper now.

Ok, bear with me please because I'm not good at reviewing stuff like this. I haven't been vaping a long time so my impressions may be faulty. :D

The cotton comes in a roll much like those huge round hay bales you see in fields. It's obviously very rough and not processed much, and is a lot like cotton that has been freshly combed (not sure who understands that reference, but there it is). :) The fibers run long-ways around the roll and is very, VERY fluffy and soft.

I cut off what I judged to be about the right length for wicking, then cut across it to make two strips. However, I overestimated just how fluffy and thick this stuff is and ended up using just one strip for both coils. It took a bit more finagling than I'm used to (with Cotton Bacon or the pads) but part of that was likely because I was very conservative with how long I cut them.

Once I got them in, it took about 1/2 sec to fluff up the ends and tuck them in. Once I started juicing them, they proved to be very thirsty. They soak up the juice fast and hold a ton of juice. It seems to me that the break-in time was almost nonexistent - the juice tasted great with no off-flavors that I could taste.

A little of this stuff goes a long way because, as I said, it's very fluffy so I needed less than I thought I would. I imagine the two rolls I bought will last me at least a year, maybe more. I definitely prefer it over Cotton Bacon and the Japanese pads. :)

(Edit: This is Drago cotton I'm talking about here. lol)

Well done Khassy! Will be in my cart tomorrow. Appreciate you taking the plunge for the rest of us! That was great ship time too.

I placed an order today for some Drago Cotton just to try it. I use cotton bacon primarily but since I test flavors constantly I would like to find a cheaper alternative. Thanks for sharing! Ill try to post my thoughts/experience when/if I get a chance.

I was just thinking... I'm trying to guilt my older son into buying me a Mesh RDA. If I manage to (or, if that fails, when I manage to acquire one later), I suspect the Drago cotton will work spectacularly well in it. As well as it holds juice and as much as it holds, I'll be able to pack the loop with a ton of cotton and be good to vape away for quite some time. :)

They did when I first ordered. :D But other than the Drago cotton, I don't think there's anything else I'll need from them.
Same here. I only ordered one roll, will probably order another with coupon. My shipping was only $3 and change. Had a 10% coupon so just over $10. Coupon they sent is for 20% and have to use it by the 9th.

Yup, same coupon code I bet. :) And your shipping was a damn sight better than mine, at over $10 for 2 rolls. UGH. Would have been nice if they had reimbursed some of the shipping cost.

Cotton won't spoil, order another roll & ask for free ship. Direct them to this thread, bet they'd give it to you.

I ordered some of that Burst Juice for a friend that likes it (Wants me to clone it lol). Its actually about $10-15 cheaper than most places. Other than that not much to be desired from them.

Thank you for the suggestion Khassy, just ordered some drago cotton from smokeandvape for myself with some maui sun by naked and its amazing!

Yo! Vandy Vape, why does the mesh that you provided in the box NOT fit in the slots on the atty?

Maybe you have to cut it down. I think I saw that in a video on the tube.

I wanted the Lost Vape Therion DNA 75C BF but was on the fence about spending that much money.
Then I got an email from VaporDNA offering a Desire Mad Dog RTA for 99 cents with a 50 dollar purchase! That tipped me over

This thing is awesome!
25mm, 3.5ml juice capacity single coil flavor monster.
It took me 3 tries to get it wicked so that it didn't leak but I'm telling you, now that I have it wicked right there is not even a hint of leak and I would put the flavor right up there next to (if not better) than the Serpent SMM.

You’d better behave & watch out for those gloves lol! My Mesh Rda from Elegomall also shipped from Tonga, strangely, mine shipped 9/25 and as of 10/4 is stuck in Los Angeles, CA.

How much is the drago Ive found in UK @ 8£ 25mg then shipping

Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Tapatalk

$7.99 USD from Smoke and Vape. That's the only place I've found it for sale.

@Letitia9 I just got an email from them thanking them for my support and it included a special 25% off discount code for a minimum of $20 purchase. So I purchased 3 more rolls of Drago. :D I'll seriously never run out of cotton now, I have enough from now til eternity. And with a much more reasonable shipping cost of just over $4.

I've also watched a couple of Youtube videos so I've got a better handle on how to wick with it so that it's not as fiddly as the way I was doing it. :teehee:

@Khassy My coupon is only good thru Monday, going to order another roll of Drago. So glad they acknowledged your effort to spread the word that they are a legit site to do business with. Big thanks from me for getting that shipping cost down! :blowkiss:

I think they offer the 20% week-long coupon for every order. I got one myself after each of my orders. :)

Where did you get that Laisimo F4 from ???

They are super rare because they were pulled from production, if anyone has one for sale or knows a place that sells them, can you let me know and I will snap it up..

I want one for the Aromamizer Titan
