Esco Bar is the disposable vape line from Texas-based Pastel Cartel — one of the earliest brands to popularize mesh coil disposables in the US market. Where most vape brands develop their own juice in-house, Esco Bar takes a different approach: partnering with established American e-liquid companies like Fruitia, Ripe, Noms, Kilo, and Aquios to create co-branded devices with juice formulas that already have proven fan bases.
We currently carry the Esco Bar 6000 — a compact, rechargeable mesh coil disposable with 15mL of e-liquid and 6,000 puffs. It's designed for vapers who prioritize flavor quality over raw puff count.
What Is Esco Bar?
Esco Bar is made by Pastel Cartel, a Texas-based vape company founded in 2019. Pastel Cartel was one of the first US companies to aggressively push mesh coil technology in disposable vapes at a time when most disposables still used standard cotton-wrapped coils. The mesh coil upgrade delivered noticeably better flavor — and that focus on flavor quality became the brand's identity.
What truly differentiates Esco Bar from every other disposable brand is its e-liquid collaboration model. Instead of formulating all flavors in-house, Pastel Cartel partners with established American juice brands:
- Fruitia × Esco Bars — fruit-forward formulas from Fresh Farms (Jungle Juice, Rainbow Cotton Candy, Peach Watermelon)
- Ripe × Esco Bars — Ripe Collection's signature fruit blends (Peachy Mango Pineapple, Blue Razz Lemonade)
- Aquios H2O × Esco Bars — the world's first water-based disposable vape, using Aquios Labs' AQ30 technology (30% water content for smoother draws and reduced throat irritation)
- Noms × Esco Bars — dessert and candy profiles from Nomenon e-liquid
- Kilo × Esco Bars — premium juice formulations from Kilo E-Liquids
This approach means Esco Bar flavors aren't generic in-house formulas — they're proven recipes from juice brands that have already built reputations in the refillable vape market. It's a unique positioning in the disposable space.
The Full Esco Bar Product Lineup
| Model | Puffs | E-Liquid | Battery | Collab / Note | VOS Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Esco Bar Mesh 2500 | 2,500 | 6mL | 1,000mAh | Original, Ripe, Noms collabs | — |
| Esco Bar Mega 5000 | 5,000 | 14mL | 600mAh | Rechargeable, Fruitia collab | — |

Esco Bar 6000 — Currently In Stock
The Esco Bar 6000 is the brand's highest-capacity model and the version we carry. It comes in multiple collaboration editions — the standard Esco Bar 6000, the Fruitia × Esco Bar 6000, and the Aquios H2O 6000 — all sharing the same hardware platform but with different juice formulations.
| Spec | Detail |
|---|---|
| Puff Count | Up to 6,000 |
| E-Liquid | 15mL |
| Nicotine | 5% (50mg) salt nicotine |
| Battery | 650mAh, USB-C rechargeable |
| Coil | Mesh coil |
| Activation | Draw-activated |
| Collab Editions | Standard / Fruitia × Esco / H2O (Aquios water-based) |
| Flavors | 10+ per edition (Blue Razz, Strawberry Frozen, Watermelon Bubblegum, Pixie Dust, etc.) |
The Esco Bar 6000 won't compete with 20K or 40K-puff devices on longevity. That's not the point. It competes on flavor quality. The collaboration model means you're getting e-liquid from juice brands like Fruitia and Ripe that have spent years perfecting their recipes for the refillable vape market — then packaging those formulas in a convenient disposable format with a mesh coil optimized for each blend.
The H2O edition deserves special mention: it uses Aquios AQ30 technology, which incorporates 30% water content into the e-liquid. The result is a noticeably smoother draw with reduced throat dryness — a common complaint with traditional PG/VG-based disposables. If you've ever felt that "parched" feeling after heavy vaping, the H2O line specifically addresses that.
Popular Esco Bar 6000 flavors: Blue Razz, Watermelon Bubblegum, Pixie Dust, Honey Mango, Strawberry Frozen, Citrus Circus, Grape Frozen, Peach Frozen.
The E-Liquid Collaboration Model — Why It Matters
Most disposable vape brands (RAZ, Geek Bar, North, Viho, etc.) develop all flavors internally. Esco Bar is the only major brand that routinely co-brands with independent juice companies. Here's why that matters for flavor quality:
Fruitia (by Fresh Farms) — known for complex fruit layering. Their Jungle Juice (tropical blend) and Rainbow Cotton Candy are formulas refined over years in bottled e-liquid before being adapted for disposables. You're getting a juice pedigree that most disposable brands can't match.
Aquios H2O — a genuine technical innovation, not just a marketing gimmick. Water-based vaping reduces the dehydrating effect of propylene glycol, produces a smoother throat hit, and may improve nicotine bioavailability (faster absorption). The H2O line makes Esco Bar the only disposable brand offering water-based e-liquid — a real differentiator.
Ripe Collection — established as a premium bottled juice line before entering disposables. Their fruit profiles tend to be cleaner and less artificially sweet than typical disposable vape flavors.
Esco Bar 6000 vs RAZ CA6000 vs Geek Bar Pulse
| Spec | Esco Bar 6000 | RAZ CA6000 | Geek Bar Pulse |
|---|---|---|---|
| Puffs | 6,000 | 6,000 | 15,000 / 7,500 |
| E-Liquid | 15mL | 10mL | 16mL |
| Battery | 650mAh | 650mAh | 650mAh |
| Unique Feature | Juice brand collabs + H2O water-based option | Compact, 100+ flavors | Dual mesh, pulse mode |
| Best For | Flavor purists, smooth draws | Flavor variety, portability | High puffs, dual modes |
Esco Bar won't win on puff count or tech features. Its advantage is flavor pedigree — collaboration with proven juice brands — and the water-based H2O option that no competitor offers. If your priority is the smoothest, most refined flavor in a compact package, Esco Bar deserves a look. If you want higher capacity, browse our Geek Bar or RAZ collections.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who makes Esco Bar?
Esco Bar is made by Pastel Cartel, a Texas-based vape company founded in 2019. Pastel Cartel designs and distributes the devices in the US, and partners with American e-liquid brands like Fruitia, Ripe, Aquios, and Kilo for flavor formulations.
What is the Aquios H2O Esco Bar?
The H2O edition uses Aquios AQ30 technology — e-liquid containing 30% water content. This is the world's first water-based disposable vape. The water content produces a smoother throat hit, reduces the dehydrating effect of traditional PG/VG e-liquids, and delivers what many users describe as a "cleaner" flavor profile. Available in the 6000-puff form factor.
What are the best Esco Bar flavors?
Blue Razz, Watermelon Bubblegum, and Pixie Dust are perennial favorites. From the Fruitia collaboration, Jungle Juice (tropical blend) and Rainbow Cotton Candy are standouts. From the H2O line, Strawberry Milkshake and Vanilla Custard offer smooth dessert profiles with the added benefit of water-based e-liquid.
Is the Esco Bar 6000 rechargeable?
Yes. It has a 650mAh battery with USB-C charging. Despite only having 6,000 puffs (lower than many competitors), the rechargeable battery ensures you use all 15mL of e-liquid without the device dying prematurely.
Why does Esco Bar have fewer puffs than other brands?
Esco Bar's lineup tops out at 6,000 puffs, while competitors like Geek Bar and RAZ offer 25K–50K puffs. Pastel Cartel has focused on flavor quality and juice collaborations rather than the puff-count arms race. If you want higher capacity, check our Viho, North, or Fume options.
What does "Pastel Cartel" mean?
It's the parent company name. Despite the colorful branding, Pastel Cartel is a legitimate Texas-based vape manufacturer and distributor. "Esco Bar" is their consumer-facing disposable vape product line. The playful name reflects the brand's emphasis on bold, creative flavor profiles.
Does Esco Bar make a high-puff device?
Not currently. The lineup ranges from 2,500 to 6,000 puffs. For vapers who want 10K+ puffs, we recommend the Fume Eternity 20K, North FT12000, or Geek Bar Pulse X 25K — all available at VapesOnlineShop.
