Comments on the packaging
814 History of e-liquid has always attracted my curiosity. the vape being a pretext to make me rediscover the great and small history of France. Each time I test a new liquid from 814, I can't help but open the search engine to find out… But who is this one?
Today… It's Dame Basine that interests me. Dame Basine is the mother of Clovis. And his story is a little sulphurous... You will see if you feel like it.
814 invites us to associate this historic name with a caramelized custard cream. Delivered in a 10ml glass bottle, its pg/vg rate is 60/40. It is available in 4, 8 or 14 mg/ml of nicotine for the single price of €5,9.

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects
I hereby certify that all the safety and legal aspects are found on the label, even if it is sometimes necessary to look a little... and I admit that we often have other things to do.
The pictograms are hidden under the first label. This is not very logical since they are made to warn pregnant women and minors of the harmfulness of nicotine. So, by hiding them, they no longer fulfill their role.
Well, the fact remains that everything is in order. The capacity, the ingredients used, the rate of PG / VG and nicotine, the address of the manufacturer and his telephone number are there. The glass bottle is closed by a secure cap and there is even the batch number as well as the BBD!
Made to assert what is right, kiss and we continue!

Comments on the packaging
The 814 range is recognizable among a thousand bottles.
First of all, the 10ml vials are all glass. The stopper is equipped with a glass pipette as well. The mouthpiece is quite thick and it is not very practical to fill some tanks. In particular those which are sealed with a membrane to prevent leaks.
With 814, I revised the dynasties of the kings and queens of France and Navarre and I was able to learn a lot of things thanks to them! So Basine de Thuringe was the mother of Clovis, and apparently she was quite a rascal! So, of course, her pretty face sits on the bottle. 814 is not his date of birth but that of the death of Charlemagne. But as this is the name of the Range, it is normal that it is also on the bottle.
Below the portrait of our queen, you will find, if you are interested, the nicotine level, the PG/VG ratio as well as the capacity of the bottle. On either side of the label, you will read the legal information I mentioned above.

Vapelier's note on the sensory experience: 5/5
Comments on the taste of the juice
Basine is a full and whole vanilla cream. Unctuous and round in the mouth, on inspiration, the notes of caramel are felt without masking the cream. On the exhale, the nuts prolong the flavor.
The whole is light, pleasant and slightly sweet. The throat hit is light. The vapor produced is of normal density and very lightly scented.
The taste intensity is well balanced and makes Basine a good balanced, deep custard that will be vaped throughout the day.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
With a pg/vg ratio of 40/60, Basine is a bit thick liquid that risks clogging your resistors. I recommend using it with fairly low resistances. Its aromatic power is correct, the airflow can be adjusted to your liking.
Personally, I opted for a reasonable setting and a warm vape in order to obtain a warm and creamy vanilla cream flavor. Basine is an allday which is pleasant all day, over a coffee or a dessert, she is great.
