About/How It Works

Upon extensive testing, higher proof works better for Vaportinis as does more flavorful spirits. Our favorites have been: any Absolut flavor, Bourbons with 70 proof or higher (Knob Creek was particularly delicious), Tanquary Rangpur, and Effen Black Cherry Vanilla. However, the possibilities are endless. We tried several infused spirits that were very successful. Again, the flavor comes through strongly, yet smoothly.

The Vaportini is legal to sell in all states for any establishment with a “Consumption on Premise” license. The alcohol consumed through a Vaportini will be detected by a blood alcohol test.

Because of the revolutionary nature of the Vaportini’s approach to the consumption of alcohol, it can be intimidating. However, it is simple, natural and enjoyable.

About 5 minutes after the vessel containing the spirits is placed on the base, it is ready to consume. The recommended amount of spirits is 1 ounce. One inhales through the straw and holds their breathe for a moment and then exhales. That’s it. The effects are felt immediately because the alcohol is going directly through the bloodstream. Most people experience a relaxed and mellow feeling. Depending on how aggressively a Vaportini is consumed, it is still “active” for 20-40 minutes. There will be liquid left in the vessel after the Vaportini is exhausted, but that is merely the water in the liquor.  The effects don’t last as long as traditional consumption, but that can certainly be a positive aspect.
