Comments on the packaging

Liqua. This is a funny melting pot.
Founded in 2009, the brand is present on three continents through four distribution centers and sold in over 85 countries.
After some research, it appears that Liqua is the offshoot of the Ritchy company, made up of four business units (US, EU, China, Russia) through two production centers in China and Europe and with around 200 employees. Phew!
All this to say that Liqua has an international vocation.

Regarding the potions received by Le Vapelier following the last Vapexpo, we learn from the indications on the packaging that the flavors are Italian and that our American Blend, a pretext for this assessment, comes from Prague in the Czech Republic.

Regarding the packaging, our recipe is presented in a traditional 10 ml plastic flask, which is protected by cardboard packaging.

The PG / VG ratio is established at 50/50 and the potion available in a wide choice of nicotine levels: 0, 3, 6, 12 & 18 mg / ml.

The price claimed for this juice is 4,90 € for aggressive pricing.

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects

Compliant with the TPD and widely explained on the brand's website, the potion - like the vast majority of potions now - does not suffer from any criticism.
One small downside to the pictogram for the visually impaired which is not on the label but on the top of the cap.

Comments on the taste of the juice

Tobacco is the majority and that's good, expecting no less from this potion.
The dried leaf is that of a classic blond but relatively soft and a bit sweet. If the honey has to intervene in small touches, it knows how to remain discreet to let the main aroma play the leading role.

This set virginia is homogeneous, consistent and has an aromatic power precisely dosed. His vape is easy and pleasant, evoking without problem distant memories of smoking.

The volume of steam is related to the 50% of vegetable glycerin declared for a light hit but consistent with 3 mg / ml received.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting

If the American Blend is perfectly comfortable in a clearomizer, I found it pleasant in a dripper. The aromas hold together well and do not break down under the effect of increased temperature. Be careful, however, power and controlled air will be its best assets.

My mood ticket on this juice

I had never had the opportunity to taste juice from Liqua, that's what is fixed.
I expected to vape a relatively basic composition, with a slightly diluted access range, poor in aromatic power and more or less faithful flavors.
Well, not only is this not the case and in addition it is an automatic Top Juice Le Vapelier for this first opus of the assortment that I received for evaluation purposes.

American Blend is a credible potion, enjoying a perfect realization for a recipe, able to delight fans of “tobacco” and to convert many first-time vapers.
The recipe is not devoid of character but remains soft and delicately sweet. The “classic” virginia and its touch of honey make it very pleasant to vape.
To tell you, even on a dripper, I enjoyed it. A potion at 4,90 €, nothing is going well my good lady!
Ok, the selection is not made on the price and okay, I evaluate this vaping liquid compared to its competitors. But still…

See you soon for new hazy adventures,

About the Author

Follower of the tobacco vape and rather "tight" I do not balk in front of good greedy clouders. I love flavor-oriented drippers but am very curious about the evolutions of our common passion for personal vaporizers. Good reasons to make my modest contribution here, no?
