Comments on the packaging
Empire is a product directly from America. Its flavor is rather greedy tobacco oriented, a liquid that is not very heavily loaded with propylene glycol but more vegetable glycerine with a sharing 30 / 70 PG / VG. It is basically a US liquid which as everyone knows, is made mainly to provide beautiful vapors. We will see what this Empire offers us.
The nicotine dosage is 6mg for my test vial but different options are also available for this liquid in 0mg, 3mg or 12mg in a clear glass vial that provides 20ml.
Only detail that bothers me is that strangely I did not find the name of the juice on the label.

Comments on the packaging
The packaging is rather basic and offers nothing exceptional except that the label is completely waterproof, only the presentation picture brings a little interest in this packaging.
The image depicts workers sitting on a metal beam during lunch at a dizzying height and for good reason, since these workers are the builders of the Empire State Building.
This photo contains the nicotine level and the name of Blueprint, on the other side of the label you can find all the other useful information such as the usual precautions, the pictograms and much more. A well-organized organization that allows you to find everything you are looking for at a glance.

Vapelier's note on the sensory experience: 5/5
Comments on the taste of the juice
The smell gives us a slightly pungent smell of tobacco with a hint of caramel.
When the Empire is steamed it is another aspect that we discover, much softer.
The top note is a blond tobacco, rather round and light mixed with a bourbon vanilla flavor, a vanilla with a dry taste but that brings a certain creaminess with notes of caramel that merge with the whole and add a little sugar for perfect the alliance.
This e-liquid does not last very long in the mouth but it is precisely this aspect that makes it so captivating and addictive. It is quite a good allday.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
Although this liquid feels perfectly good in all atomizers, the greedy side varies slightly depending on the power. Indeed, the notes of vanilla and caramel are more discreet when you increase the power, so it always offers a pleasant flavor.
For the vapor, it is dense and allows you to make beautiful clouds on a dripper accompanied by a double coil and subohm assembly. For the hit it remains average and in full compliance with the rate displayed on the label.

My mood ticket on this juice
Strangely, this Empire reminds me of a good French liquid rather than an American gourmand, its tobacco base is very well controlled, soft and particularly pleasant to vape with subtle notes of vanilla and caramel. Flavors that go very well and offer a perfect allday that we never tire of.
The packaging is also successful, however, for the price, the packaging seems too simple compared to its price range and taste aspect. Although this juice is good, we can find this kind of flavor a little cheaper in France.
I also regret not having found the name of this liquid on the label, but the presentation picture is very pretty and touching when you know a little history in relation to the Empire State Building.
