While most vape pens use e-liquids with are diluted in propane glycol or vegetable glycerin, this vape pen is different. Instead, it contains high viscosity full-spectrum CBD distillate containing natural terpenes to improve flavour and effect.
Most CBD vapes are derived from CBD isolate, this device uses a whole plant extract to maximise the synergistic effects of hemp (the entourage effect).
The device itself is made by CCELL.
CCELL are the leading manufacturer for cannabis vape pens in the USA, unlike other vapes which are traditionally made to vape e-liquid, Kiara devices are engineered to vape cannabis concentrates only, and they do an excellent job.
The vape cartridge has a ceramic core that uses variable heat technology, which heats the vape oil according to the puff time—automatically optimising each puff according to the viscosity of the extract, ensuring a perfect and smooth pull each time which is easy to inhale.
There’s no need to power the device on or wait for it to heat up, all you do is take a puff and a light at the end of the pen lets you know it’s vapourising the CBD concentrate.
Being a slim device, its perfect for use on the go and its rechargeable 350 mAh battery can keep even the most hardcore vaper going for days on end without needing to recharge!
In terms of compliance, all Kiara Naturals products are third party tested and the latest certificates are available on the product pages.
While this doesn’t Include an analysis of the terpenes in the product to give you insight into the exact makeup of the broad spectrum hemp extract!
Pros
- Inhale to activate
- Full-spectrum CBD + terpenes only
- Third-party tests available for review
- Premium rechargeable hardware
Cons
- More expensive than CBD Isolate e-liquids
- Not compatible with CBD e-liquids

If you’re interested in vaping but with your own CBD e-liquid or distillate, the Rubi makes an excellent choice. All you need to do is puff away as it has no buttons either.
It’s a sleek and stealthy portable vapouriser, which uses a 1ml open pod system that you refill with the vape juice of your choice.
Terpene Infused CBD E Liquid
Gelato CBD Vape Oil E Liquid By CBDFX LEARN MORE NOW Learn More
Terpene rich 500mg CBD E liquid with a pungent lemon flavour. Third party tested and with certs on site.

The fact the device uses a ceramic coil ensures the Rubi vape pen can handle thin CBD distillate with ease. Although, compared to the CCELL vape pen mentioned above, the Rubi cannot handle thicker distillates which are subject to crystallisation
As a result, if you do decide to buy the Rubi for use with CBD distillate, you will need to ensure the liquid has a lower potency and viscosity to work properly (less than 35% appears to work okay). If you need to dilute a distillate, you can use terpenes as a natural alternative to reduce viscosity.
With a 280 mAh battery, it doesn’t last forever, but it also plugs into any standard USB port for charging ease.
Pros
- Beautiful design
- Refillable pod system
- Great for beginners using CBD-eliquid
Cons
- Can’t handle thicker distillates
- Slow to charge

Being a company established in 2011, Innokin is a recognised name in the vaping community and if your a fan of sub-ohm vaping you probably already know who they are
The Endura is an example of a traditional e-cigarette vape that can also be used for CBD e-liquids, and its vape coil has won a couple of wards too! Featuring adjustable airflow, the endura allows you to control the harshness of each pull according to your own preference.
Being a mouth to lung vape, this device is enjoyed most by ex-smokers given it often provides a harder hit to the throat compared to other vapes.
Pros
- Great if you already use e-liquids
- Adjustable airflow
- Large vape tank
- Battery indicator
Cons
- Uses e-liquids not natural CBD concentrates
- Not the easiest to use for beginners
- Mouthpeice gets hot

CBD Vape Pen Buying Guide
If you’re new to vaping, it can be easy to get lost in the mix, especially when there are so many types of devices on the market along with the different types of CBD.
Firstly, let’s clarify the different types of CBD you can vape via a pen:
CBD Concentrates VS CBD E-Liquids
Concentrates are highly potent forms of CBD, usually exceeding 90% purity. However, there are a couple of different types and ways to use them:
- Full and broad-spectrum CBD concentrates: Considered whole-plant extracts, these contain a variety of other cannabinoids (in addition to CBD) and terpenes (the only difference is full spectrum contains traces of THC). Most users find these to be more useful as CBD is thought to work synergistically with the other compounds found in hemp.
- CBD Isolate: The ‘purest’ form of CBD but often the least preferred due to the point above. Most CBD vape oil which is based on an e-liquid formulation contains CBD Isolate not a broader plant profile.
Ceramic Atomiser vs Cotton Wick
If you are using a high potency CBD concentrate, you will usually need a ceramic heating element (atomiser) to turn the CBD into vapour.
A ceramic atomiser is especially useful if you are using different concentrates of varying viscosities and/or e-liquids, you can use the same device. This is because a thicker extract will only produce effective results via a ceramic or quartz heating element.
This is why any CBD vape pens using distillate or dab pens use ceramic or quartz heating elements whereas CBD vape pens used for eliquids use cotton wicks which are cheaper to produce.
Variable Temperature Control
Some CBD vape pens have the ability to adjust the heating temperature. The benefit of this is that the harshness of each pull can be altered, with a higher temp its’ likely the output will be harsher and produce more vape clouds
Although, some devices automatically adjust the voltage given how long each puff you take is (the longer a puff, the higher the resulting temp); for example CCELL devices.
CBD Vape Pens Can Differ Significantly
When it comes to finding the right CBD vape pen for you, it’s useful to first assess what type of CBD you want to consume and then figure out the device best used for it.
There are some crucial differences:
- Undiluted CBD concentrates require a certain (often ceramic) type of heating element which is more expensive and robust. As a result, any device using CBD which isn’t made into an e-liquid is generally going to be more expensive.
- A vape pen used with CBD e-liquid is much cheaper to produce, and the parts need replacing more often on average.
What's The Best CBD Vape Pen For Beginners?
Vaping CBD for beginners can be as easy as picking up a pen and inhaling!
In my opinion, these are the ideal CBD vapes to get started with as they aren’t complicated and you can choose between traditional e-liquids or concentrates.
Personally, we prefer a broad spectrum hemp extract and terpenes only!
Disposable CBD Vape Pens vs Non Disposable
A vape kit often refers to the entire setup you will need to vape CBD (usually) e-liquids, although Kiara Naturals vape kits contain CBD distillate.
Common components include:
- An atomiser and battery which combine to make a vape pen.
- A concentrated form of CBD. Usually CBD vape oil made from Isolate diluted in PG/VG.
- A charger.
These devices are rechargeable and refillable making them great for on-going use.
Frequently Asked Questions
Usually no.
Most CBD oil isn’t diluted correctly to make it suitable for both vaping and sublingual use. Although, if the CBD Oil is diluted in PG/VG, it can be used for vaping CBD oil.
Note – CBD Vape oil does not equal CBD Oil. Vape oil often refers to e-liquids, and CBD oil is associated with the sublingual use of CBD.
Undiluted CBD Concentrates are often consumed via a process called dabbing via a dab pen (wax pen).
While there are ways to manually dab, a wax pen refers to using an electronic device which works in the same way as a vape.
The key difference between dabbing and vaping is that a dab usually refers to a single-use (a few puffs) of the concentrate before it needs topping up. In contrast, a vape pen contains a liquid which is inhaled until the cartridge depletes.
Start with a puff and re-assess how you feel afterwards. The great thing about using CBD vape oil is that you can feel the effects near instantaneously!
If you want more, go ahead and take another puff and repeat the process until you find your ‘sweet spot’.

CBD distillate vape pens are often full spectrum (or broad). As a result, it contains a more diverse set of phytochemicals to encourage the compounds to work in synergy.
CBD vape juice usually contains CBD Isolate only, which is thought to be less useful than a full spectrum or broad-spectrum hemp extract.
What is the best CBD vape cartridge?
It depends.
Are you after flavour, effect, potency, or a combination of all of these?
We suggest you do your own research to weigh up the pros and cons, but our favourite is by far CBD vape pens which are made from a broad spectrum CBD extract.
Users often comment that they feel the effects of CBD quicker than other consumption methods but for a shorter duration.
As a result, if you want to feel the effects in seconds using a CBD vape might be more beneficial.
Using a CBD vape offers the highest rate of absorption vs the other common ways to take CBD.
This means you need less when vaping for the same amount on average to reach the bloodstream than via oral use.
This is because orally CBD is broken down by the liver through a process called the first-pass effect, this means you lose a significant part of the CBD to the digestive system.
