Comments on the packaging
Today, I am offering you a road trip in the center of France, in Auvergne more precisely, to meet one of the latest additions to the Flavor Power 50/50 range: the Akkad. The ancient Mesopotamian city therefore gives its surname to an e-liquid, why not after all? The taste promises are therefore rather vague and are lost in the mists of time but a little archeology will not hurt us ...
Made of flexible plastic, the bottle is standard and offers all the information to inform the consumer. The price is that of an entry-level liquid, that's good because the juice does not have a premium vocation but rather, a noble task if there is one, to accompany the first cloudy steps of beginners.
Available in 0, 3, 6 and 12mg / ml of nicotine, it will therefore concern almost everyone except the most "affected" of which I may have been part. In my opinion, it is therefore regrettable that a higher rate is not available, in 16 or 18, in order to cover all the needs. Even if I understand that this type of dosage is probably not the best-selling in the current market, it must be remembered that the market for smokers still to be converted is, for its part, much more substantial and that, even commercially, a high rate, especially when targeting first-time vapers, seems legitimate.

Vapelier's note regarding the respect of various conformities (except religious): 4.63 / 5 
Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects
If you want TPD-ready, comma-compliant, liquid formatted to meet point by point the legislation in force, Flavor Power gives you all the assets in your hands. What disorientate the most pugnacious inspector of the DGCCRF.
Indeed, the bottle and the label could not be more square and present all the mentions, warnings, logos and other contacts and lot numbers necessary to establish a more than perfect conformity.
We note the presence of ultra-pure water in the composition, an element that will annoy only those allergic to H2O who only tolerate it in their pastaga and again, in small quantities. For the rest, as the name of the range indicates, we have a very traditional 50/50.
Some crucial information like batch number, nicotine level or expiration date has been added post-printing onto the glossy paper and magically disappears with the flick of a finger. It would be good to review this aspect so as not to end up having problems with missing elements for a simple ink story.
Appreciation of the packaging

Vapelier's note regarding packaging with regard to juice category: 1.67 / 5 
Comments on the packaging
One thing is certain, this bottle will never be exposed in the Louvre.
Flavor Power has clearly chosen to promote information to the detriment of aesthetics, and the result is hardly appealing. However, this is not a negligible parameter because, at the time of the choice and we all know it, a pretty well presented bottle can make the difference when we do not have, as sometimes happens, the possibility or the time to taste.
Too bad, for my part, and other manufacturers have been able to demonstrate this, compliance can go hand in hand with a worked visual. To do this, it would be necessary to separate the information, place the excess in the leaflet under the label and find a graphic charter worthy of the product and enhancing the manufacturer's brand image.

Vapelier's note on the sensory experience: 5/5 
Comments on the taste of the juice
Fortunately, it is inside the bottle that the real challenge takes place and there, we can say that Flavor Power did not skimp.
Akkad is simple in design but perfectly realized and balanced. We have a blond tobacco, quite round but present that goes perfectly with a gourmet hazelnut and the result is delicious and delicate.
With a pronounced aromatic power, the liquid is therefore required quite naturally in the mouth and delivers a beautiful amplitude suitable to satisfy the desires of greedy tobacco of a beginner but also of a more seasoned vapoteur who will find here a balance of flavors all simply perfect.
The length in the mouth is interesting and persists quite a long time after the puff. A juice that will be appreciated as much with black coffee or even on hot chocolate as with old alcohol, with Maud and Ration, of course, hips! Allday obvious, it will vaporize as much as you want on its own without ever losing its addicting taste.
Tasting recommendations
- Recommended power for optimal taste: 35 W
- Type of vapor obtained at this power: Dense
- Hit type obtained at this power: Medium
- Atomizer used for the review: Narda, Taifun GT3, Nautilus X
- Value of the resistance of the atomizer in question: 0.7
- Materials used with the atomizer: Stainless steel, Cotton
Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
Whether in a beginner-type clearomizer or in a dripper, the Akkad holds up. Its classic viscosity predisposes it to invade any atomizer. The vapor is rather dense and the average hit for the rate used here, ie 6mg / ml and its aromatic power protects it from the “I vape from the base” effect even by opting for an open airflow.
The ideal temperature is rather lukewarm / hot and the juice accepts to increase in power without disintegrating. The balance remains constant and the taste always pleasant, regardless of the type and level of resistance used.

My mood ticket on this juice
In conclusion, we have here a targeted first-vapoteur e-liquid that largely exceeds its purpose by being vapable as desired, including by confirmed vapers.
Good and consistent, Akkad highlights a rare balance for a juice of this category and a taste that will fascinate lovers of gourmet nut tobacco. offered at an affordable price, given the recent general increase observed (early 2017).
Despite completely correctable peripheral “plastic” defects, it therefore naturally stands out as a state-of-the-art e-liquid and I reward it with a Top Juice for its highly refined and balanced gourmet flavor.
