Comments on the packaging

In the range of the Gods of Olympus from Vapolic, it is today Athena, the goddess of Wisdom who sticks there. But for those who thought of a half-tone result, filled with softness, it is missed as you will see later. It would be too quickly to forget that the lady is also the goddess of military strategy ...

Always equal packaging of which only the label color differentiates the references. 20ml of capacity, availability of juice in 0, 3, 6 and 12mg / ml but also in concentrate for the diyers. The clarity and opulence of the information make the bottle a valuable ally in the fight against excessive regulation. In any case, Vapolique behaves like a good student and ensures an excellent grade.

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects

It has been quite a while since a French e-liquid that has passed the security protocol has not obtained an excellent rating. It is therefore with pleasure that I note that Athena had the wisdom not to illustrate herself in the wrong way. I see it as a sign that French vapology has reached its maturity and that, well beyond the excessive demands of Brussels, it is working to make a perfect copy in the matter and for a long time. 

And it's not nothing. Vape was born out of the field and has escaped any monopoly whether it is state, tobacco companies or pharmacy. By thus demonstrating total transparency in terms of security, it accredits the fact that it does not need either one or the other to exist by itself. CQFD.

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

Comments on the packaging

The packaging is a vital element for an e-liquid because it determines the power of seduction that it will express in order to make you want to taste it! 

Here, we took out a frosted glass vial reminiscent of the bottles frosted by sea water that we find on the beaches from time to time. And we gave it a pretty label, the color and certain elements of which change depending on the reference and which respects the spirit of the range.

It's pretty, the frosted effect of the glass is nice and well in tone. I only regret the mediocrity of the support for the label which does not promote a burst of colors capable of even more charming the eye. But this is venial, I will admit it.

Comments on the taste of the juice

If you were expecting a wise juice, you, like me, made a mistake. 

Indeed, Athena appears in the costume of a forest warrior, ready to do battle with all the centaurs in the neighborhood. Enter in the mouth an astonishing blend of raspberry and natural grass which immediately develops a deeply earthy and sylvan aspect. Then a refreshing element, which I apprehend like eucalyptus because it goes up in the nose, comes to pulsate the pleasant sensation by a cloud of freshness which opens the bronchi and the sinuses.

The recipe is perfect as well because we end up with a very fresh juice but which is quite different from the references in the field. Because the typical herbal aspect remains, with a good taste of tender grass that envelops a sweet and shy raspberry / wild strawberry like a pretty naiad.

It's delicious and obviously recommended in hot weather. I, who am not very drawn to cool liquids, can say that I liked the surprise.

Surprise, maybe that's the weapon of Wisdom?

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting

Treat yourself. In view of its beautiful aromatic power, Athena will pass on any type of atomizer and with any type of airflow. Be careful, however, not to give it too devastating heat because it is not really in the spirit of the juice which will be better consumed warm / cold. The hit is very solid, amplified by the presence of eucalyptus and the vapor is beautiful.

My mood ticket on this juice

Definitely, this range has something to seduce, between effective gourmet tobaccos, gourmands who melt on the tongue and fruity surprising.

Athena is well in this spirit and further raises the level of a bunch of mischievous and endearing gods who could well be a hit in the shops.

A nice juice, different, so essential.
