IMBA packaging
IMBA disposables are sold in individual cardboard boxes.

The back side has more detailed technical data, certificate icons and warnings along with the supplier’s coordinates.

IMBA. Design
The appearance of IMBA disposables is classic from all sides: a thick cylinder with a soft-touch coating in two colors on each stick, plastic mouthpiece, logo and flavor name on the side (plus there is also duplicated information about nicotine content). The device is turned on by your inhale, and a small blue dot lights up at the bottom, just near the small rectangular hole where the air comes in and where the on-off sensor is hidden.

IMBA Testing and Flavors
Inside each disposable is a rechargeable battery containing a chemically active alkaline metal called lithium. Such batteries should not be thrown away with household garbage, but should be taken to a recycling or special disposal facility.
IMBA – ICE BLUEBERRIES
I’ll start with a cold one: blueberries on ice. The smell is quite berry and recognizable, the taste on the inhale at first seems not cold at all, but berry and sweet. With a deep puff, the first impressions are taken far away, the coldness here is “as it should be”, not to the point of freezing the lungs, but also enough. The berry flavor is transferred decently, despite the decent sweetness, and in the aftertaste even slips a pleasant sourness.
IMBA – ICE BANANA
A second cold and equally sweet flavor, this time banana. The vapor aroma is much more pronounced than from the actual fruit, more like how candy smells. The flavor on the inhale is moderately cold and just as moderately sweet. During a deep puff the coldness increases almost to extreme values, but during the exhale there is a slight relief accompanied by a pleasant banana flavor. The aftertaste, unfortunately, is not so qualitative, there are obvious chemical notes in it, not bright, but noticeable, although you can get used to it in a couple of minutes.
IMBA – MANGO PINEAPPLE
Mango and pineapple flavored disposable smells just like these fruits, and equally. On the inhale you will get a slightly dry sweetness, which will unfold with a deep puff into full flavors of sour pineapple and tart mango. On the exhale there will be a faint resinousness and moderate sweetness mixed with pineapple characteristic sourness. In the end we will get just a classic flavor combination, clear and precise.
IMBA – WATERMELON MELON ICE
The smell of melon is very sweet, extremely similar to chewing gum from the distant 90s. The flavor on the inhale is moderately cold and confidently melon, the sweetness is also at a good level. A deep puff will freeze your lungs, but not to the formation of a crust, but only to a thin layer of frost on them, and then melt it with a sweet flavor of watermelon during the exhale. The aftertaste is simply invigorating and minty, like from just biting into a melon flavored chewing gum. Simply delicious, and perfect for every day.
IMBA – BERRY ENERGY DRINK
The vape smells like an energy drink, which is already great, because quite often such flavors give a flavor of anything but what you really want to get from them. The flavor on the inhale is just cold and slightly sour, and the main idea, energy drink, is recognized during the exhale, and it is in berry version, I would even say with clear strawberry notes in the aftertaste. Invigorating, refreshing, saturating nicotine: three out of three, and also, simply delicious.
IMBA – ICE GRAPES
Aroma – dark and sweet grapes, backyard grapes, buttery and acidic. The flavor on the inhale is moderately cold with a good portion of isabella. On the deep puff the sweetness and juiciness increases, the berries feel like they’ve just been pulled out of the freezer and they slowly melt on the tongue. During the exhale and the subsequent aftertaste, the receptors mostly get a portion of sweetness and a little sourness, to a lesser extent dry tartness and just a little bit of bitterness from an accidentally chewed stone. The end result is just a showy and ripe dark grape with a moderate chill, but no alcoholic aftertaste.
IMBA – RASPBERRY LEMONADE
The flavor on the inhale is simply fresh, with the dominant part of fizzy soda, and the berry part is felt more on the deep puff. During the exhale and in the aftertaste, both components blend together and give that raspberry drink. Nice and moderately sweet.
IMBA – GUM
Gum. Just a minty gum with a bright starchy flavor during the inhale and a fruity feel in the aftertaste. Not cold, but minty and invigorating. Not sweet, but peppery. There is simply nothing more to add.
IMBA – STRAWBERRIES AND CREAM
It smells of berries, perhaps even with leaves, although subconsciously I was waiting for caramel candy or, at the very least, ice cream. The flavor on the inhale is sweet and suddenly cool, with a deep puff it rolls even more distinctly down the throat with a cold and sour wave of strawberry pulp. Creamy sweetness appears during the exhale, but at this time the berries do not disappear anywhere, but in the aftertaste there are already sweet candies “Strawberries with cream” that I love so much. I simply recommend it, for it is delicious, rich and cool!
IMBA – PINA COLADA
The last flavor is a drink, or rather a cocktail. The smell is pleasant, pineapple and coconut are recognizable at once and there is even some echo of dark rum (and even if it’s self-deception, it’s still good). The flavor on the inhale is slightly cool and piercingly pineapple, then when you take a deep breath, coconut milk and rum tinge appear, as if the cocktail was “mixed but not shaken” and it remained in layers in the glass. On the exhale everything is also excellent, but in the aftertaste the sourness of pineapple together with the coconut pulp create a little dry note, which you would like to suppress with another puff. But, please, don’t get carried away: although there is not much nicotine here (2%), it is enough to make you float after 7-8 breaths.
IMBA. Personal impressions
All ten tested IMBA flavors showed themselves with the best side, there were practically no misses or strong differences from the stated sensations. Some of the mixes pleased with additional (slight) coldness and absolutely all of them showed themselves to be saturated enough to get pleasant sensations during vaping. I’m not going to make a completely personal top, but my favorites are Mango Ananas and Berry Energetic. As for the remaining ten flavors, I’m sure they are also worthy of your attention.
