Comments on the packaging

We continue our exploration of Roykin's “Legend” range, a highly developed tobacco-inspired collection that promises a lot. Today it's up to Sir Havana to grill, with all due respect to his rank, of course.

This liquid is currently available in 30ml and in nicotine levels of 0, 6, 11, 16 and 19 mg / ml. Something to satisfy everyone, from the first-time vapoteur with a real lack of nicotine to the confirmed who vape more light. Bravo for this choice to keep rates high enough because I find that manufacturers tend to forget that beginners need these rates and, beyond that, that the bulk of the market remains to be conquered ...

Presented in a packaging that evokes a discreet and therefore elegant class, the Sir Havana presents an almost perfect profile at this level. Almost? Yes, because an oversight that is difficult to forgive clearly appears from the first contact with the liquid: there is no first opening seal. It is therefore impossible to know if the liquid was opened before you.

These days, it is commercially suicidal to omit such an option and, moreover, it is against all efforts made by the manufacturer elsewhere to get involved in securing the vape. We remember Roykin participating in the commission on AFNOR standards, or an active member of FIVAPE. So, I encourage the brand to continue to be part of this fight by inserting a simple plastic wrap, like what Halo does, for example.

Okay, now that we've talked about the worst, here comes the best.

Vapelier's note regarding the respect of various conformities (except religious): 5 / 5 5 5 out of stars

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects

In this crucial chapter of legal and security aspects, Roykin hits hard and wins the maximum mark.

No miracle, no dead end and everything is clear and clean. Logos, bilingual warnings, consistent information, a raised triangle for the visually impaired, that's it. This is how we see Roykin, in the perfect perfection of security, conducive to reassuring the steamers and warding off the ominous birds.

So, at the risk of repeating myself (it's age!), A last effort for the seal of inviolability and presto, the note will fly and the confidence of vapers will find !!!

Vapelier's note regarding packaging with regard to juice category: 5 / 5 5 5 out of stars

Comments on the packaging

Remember that we have here a liquid for less than 6 € for 10ml. And agree with me that it does not show at all! 

In fact, we have before our amazed eyes a beautiful transparent glass vial adorned with a black label of the most beautiful effect, in the shape of a cigar ring. On the circular square, the name of the product, the range and the manufacturer are inscribed, as if engraved in a silvery tint which gives a rare elegance to the bottle. A simple frieze of the same shade surrounds the entire label.

It is extremely simple and therefore timeless and of a crazy class. Well done to the designer!

Vapelier's note on the sensory experience: 5/5 5 5 out of stars

Comments on the taste of the juice

Watch out for sensitive souls. No question here of a light and greedy tobacco, we are on the raw, the real, the hard, the muscular! People who are allergic to Nicot grass are asked to stay in the waiting room, the strawberry milk counter will open in ten minutes.

We take in the mouth, not to say in the mouth, an abundant and vaporous gulp of dry, dark and massive tobacco. It is then easy to recognize the authorship of a good cigar if the rather evocative name had not done so before. Behind the power, we guess discreet and fragrant notes of pepper and cocoa, which almost make one think of a Cohiba. With a very light sweet relief on the tips of the lips at the end of the job.

The recipe is thus perfect and Sir Havana will find its place of choice accompanied by a manic old man, sorry, an old Armagnac (in moderation) or a coffee of fine origin (with satisfaction). And all this for the price of a mint tobacco that smells of fragrant condoms at the local tobacconist!

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting

Open bar ! Tested on a Cubis Pro Clearomiser, it's perfect. On a Narda dripper, it's the foot! At 20W as at 30W and as at 40W, it is always impeccable! Whatever your complaints, he will bow to them with good grace while imposing his strength and all his subtlety. With a powerful hit and a very dense vapor compared to the PG / VG ratio, this liquid is typically the style to be slowly tamed but quickly become essential.

My mood ticket on this juice

I am enraged because it is the style of liquid to which I could have given a Top Juice without batting an eyelid so it feels good to think outside the box (sometimes ruts ...) and find the raw sensation of a well-made tobacco. 

Alas, the cruel lack of which I spoke to you at the beginning of the review is felt on the final note and it is a great pity. But you must admit that it is not reasonable to cut corners on 3cm² of plastic when you have a liquid of this caliber on the shelf. 

A liquid to tame, to which the first minutes of vape do not pay enough homage but which quickly knows how to impose itself when you insist a little.

I liked the Sir Havana and siphoned off the 30ml at supersonic speed. I strongly recommend it to all former Cuban lovers (for Cubans, I can't help you…). And I strongly advise against it for those allergic to strong sensations who will fall back on light sweets of which, obviously and for the better, Sir Havana is not one of them.
