Comments on the packaging
VDLV is once again expanding the “Les Grands” range with Grand Mendez as a new benchmark, perhaps a nod to the film “Camping”? As with the upstream end of the range, the liquid is packaged in a 20ml clear glass bottle. This liquid plunges us in the summer, take out deckchair and umbrella and get ready to vape quietly.
The liquid is available in 0 / 3 / 6 and 12mg nicotine.

Comments on the packaging
As for the rest of the range, the bottle will be presented in a blue / purple cardboard tube with a nice typographic composition.
The nicotine level is present on the tube, but not the name of the product.
The label, on the other hand, includes the liquid of about 95%, clear glass not treated anti-UV. It is therefore better to keep it in the tube or in a cupboard away from light.

Comments on the taste of the juice
Surprising, a slightly tangy cola accompanied by a tutti frutti mix. perfectly well balanced. Coke first, followed by the tutti frutti mixture. The liquid is not too sweet, here too we are on the happy medium, the sugar barely touches our taste buds. Fruit level, I perceive in the mouth kiwi mixed with raspberry, but do not feel any particular freshness
I have the feeling of a relatively chemical taste, yet I know that Vdlv only uses natural flavors, it must come from my palate which must not be made for amazing mixtures, this is only my opinion !! No hit present because the test liquid has zero nicotine.
The holding in the mouth is also absent.

My mood ticket on this juice
I did not appreciate this liquid at its fair value, certainly the mixture of these aromas does not suit me :-(. I repeat, it is only my opinion, but we are all different at this level.
Let's say that our taste buds are not the same but this reference has all its chances with regard to the number of vapers in France.
Nevertheless it remains an amazing mix and dared !!
Good luck, Fredo.
