Comments on the packaging
Ahhhh, bikini, bikini…. Whether one thinks of the famous paradisiacal atoll that the Americans have permanently polluted by carrying out their nuclear tests there or of the two-piece swimsuit that knows so well how to highlight the tanned feminine forms that stroll along the beaches ... difficult to remain unmoved. We have the choice between atomic fission and slip fission somewhere!
Well, let's get back on our feet by announcing that the Bikini is one of the three e-liquids of the famous summer range of Swoke which also includes the Bisou and the Smiley. A fresh fruitiness therefore except that here we are going for a walk in the tropics for a cocktail of more exotic fruits.
The packaging is elegant and very stylish, it fully assumes the manufacturer's desire to make its range one of the must-have for summer 2015. Here again, natural aromas, PG of plant origin and the use of L -nicotine guarantee us a juice made with an important concern for safety and realism.
On board!

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects
So many qualities in a simple bottle! All legal, security and informative notices are included with great clarity and maximum transparency. The manufacturer goes so far as to specify that the Bikini does not contain alcohol, water, dyes or animal fat. What is nice for the animals, you will agree! We could have added: does not contain kryptonite or polonium or even specify that the liquid is free from bubonic plague or anthrax, it would have been even more precise ...
No more mockery, better too much than not enough when it comes to the health of vapers and I salute the brand's seriousness in the area of safety.

Comments on the packaging
In view of the relatively low price of the Bikini, the packaging is certainly simple but nicely presented. The turquoise-tinted glass bottle, in perfect synchronization with the rubber press of the pipette, I admit that it has its effect! The label is not only busy but pretty with a silver background that will shine brightly on the terrace of your favorite beach cafe! Everything is once again in the hues of summer and announces to us better than Météo France a scorching temperature conducive to cool vaping around a drink in unison.

Comments on the taste of the juice
ATTENTION DANGER!!! Swoke is changing my vision of vaping and it is very disturbing ... Indeed, we obtain on inspiration a fresh fruity mixture based on exotic fruits in which I believe to recognize mango for its greedy aspect, passion fruit on the finish but also a cloud of coconut milk and a refreshing spice like ginger. I even thought I detected a curl of red fruit, unless it was pomegranate… The Bikini's hold in the mouth is very good and this impression of soft freshness is retained for a long time. The recipe stands up perfectly because to the skilfully dosed fruit cocktail is added a gourmet note, undoubtedly through the coconut / mango mixture. It's totally good. I had already liked the Smiley but this is a must!

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
To be used on a reconstructable atomizer or a clearo that is not too airy in order to maintain the definition of the flavors. High temperatures should be avoided because they promote the acidity of the liquid to the detriment of the greedy roundness and are a little irrelevant with such a juice.

My mood ticket on this juice
This Bikini is very sexy, I have to confess it. Full in the mouth, perfectly highlighted by a beautiful blue packaging, it is an e-liquid that is already shaping up to be a bestseller to refresh palates thirsty for beach returns. It will go perfectly with a good cold lemonade or any other drink made from cold tea for example. Alternately spicy, fresh, sweet, greedy and spicy, we have here a polymorphous juice, which its lightness makes amply vapable in summer alldays. Nothing to take away, nothing to add, Swoke has done a great job and the natural origin of the aromas add a nice realism to an already well-rounded taste.
