Vampire Vape Heisenberg: The History Behind This Legendary E-Liquid
Vampire Vape’s Heisenberg e-liquid has become one of the most iconic and best-selling e-liquid flavours in the world. With its distinctive blend of fruity notes, menthol and a secret “undisclosed” flavour, Heisenberg has cemented its place as a vaping classic since its debut at the Shrewsbury Vapefest in 2014. In this post, we’ll dive into the flavour profile, explore the origins of this legendary e-liquid and take a closer look at the different flavour variations and suppliers that offer the Heisenberg experience.
How Did Heisenberg Start?
Heisenberg was created by Vampire Vape, a UK-based e-liquid manufacturer in Blackburn, known for its high-quality and innovative flavours. Released in 2014, Heisenberg quickly took the UK market by storm, becoming a fan favourite and playing a key role in establishing Vampire Vape as a leading brand in the vaping industry. Heisenberg was launched at the Shrewsbury Vapefest alongside another now-famous flavour, Pinkman. I was lucky enough to attend this release myself, and I can still remember the fun games Vampire Vape had to draw in the crowd and really push the launch of this iconic flavour.
The name "Heisenberg" is also a nod to the popular TV series Breaking Bad. In addition, Vampire Vape’s "Pinkman" e-liquid is named after another key character from the show. The release of these flavours coincided with Breaking Bad's peak popularity, making it the perfect time to choose these iconic names. With the colour of the e-liquid being blue, this connection to the series only added to the allure of the flavours, captivating both Breaking Bad fans and vapers alike.
The Flavour Profile of Heisenberg
Heisenberg is renowned for its layered flavour profile, combining fruity notes, a cool menthol kick and a hint of mystique. While the precise flavour remains a closely guarded secret, vapers commonly identify three key elements: fruit/berries, an icy cool sensation and that mysterious “secret” flavour that keeps people guessing. This flavour is loved by both beginners using starter kits and advanced vapers who enjoy High VG e-liquids.
Vampire Vape has kept the Heisenberg recipe and its exact flavour notes under wraps, which only adds to the mystery and intrigue surrounding it. This has made Heisenberg one of the most talked-about and debated flavours in the vaping community.
Who Invented Heisenberg?
Heisenberg was developed by Vampire Vape’s in-house team of mixologists, all dedicated to crafting unique and well-balanced e-liquids. While the individual behind the creation of Heisenberg remains anonymous, the brand credits its in-house R&D team for the innovative formula.

Heisenberg is a true staple for the DIY vaping community and is one of the most sought after e-liquid concentrates available.
Alongside DIY concentrates, a fan favourite is the 10ml Nicotine Salt variant, available in 10mg/mL and 20mg/mL. This is ideal for vapers who use MTL (Mouth-To-Lung) devices and prefer a smoother nicotine experience.
Heisenberg’s freebase blend is also available in 3mg/mL, 6mg/mL, and 12mg/mL. It's particularly useful for new vapers transitioning from cigarettes, as it works well with starter kits and MTL intermediate devices. With its fruit and ice bursts and mysterious undertones, Heisenberg couldn’t be further away from the taste of traditional cigarette smoking, which is why it remains such a popular flavour.
For those who enjoy High VG vaping, don’t worry Vampire Vape has you covered with their Koncept Range. This range allows you to enjoy Heisenberg in a 100ml shortfill, perfect for Sub-Ohm vapers. Crafted with a 70VG/30PG ratio, the Koncept range provides a 100ml mix, housed in a 120ml bottle, ensuring ample space for customisation.
Also available in a longfill format, specifically in a 60ml bottle containing 20ml of concentrated PG-based liquid. This setup is ideal for those who like to customise their vape experience by adding their preferred nicotine shot or base, bringing the final volume to 60ml.
With Heisenberg’s growing popularity, many e-liquid companies have tried to replicate its unique flavour, adding their own twists.
