FIVE PAWNS
Everything is Made by Hand and in Very Small Batches
The Pawn
Drip tips and the liquid bottles sitting on our tables initially reminded us of the shape of a pawn. From the beginning, we thought of our liquid much like a pawn. The official dictionary definition defines a Pawn as: “2. (noun) Someone or something who is used or manipulated to further another person’s purposes.” It’s fitting that the game of chess, a sophisticated and complete game, uses the pawn. The pawn only moves forward and is often sacrificed, much like our liquid.
We decided to start with five complex and sophisticated flavors. Additionally, there are five traditional tastes known to man; sweet, bitter, sour, salty, and umami (which is described as savory). Our offering has a flavor that satisfies one of each of the five tastes. Hence the name Five Pawns and "It's your move…"

The Process
Everything is made by hand and in very small batches. As you'll see on our bottle and packaging labels, all numbers match and our batches generally consist of 500 bottles per lot. Our blends and manufacturing facility have been a labor of love. As a matter of fact, the first five offerings (what was then known as our Signature Series) were in development for about six months before being released. All of our blends result in a 50% VG / 50% PG combination and come only in 30ml bottles. Flavors are comprised of both artificial and often natural base ingredients and we offer each flavor in a variety of nicotine strength
