Comments on the packaging

As Master Yoda said: “always in twos they go, neither more nor less.” So okay, he was talking about the Sith, the agents of the dark side. By forgetting in passing to say that the Jedi were also in pairs most often, the old green scoundrel!

In any case, at Alfaliquid, the adage is true and it is today that two new liquids are released in the Granita range. The Cola that we unveiled this morning and the Blackcurrant Blackberry that we reveal to you this afternoon.

The Granita range is a collection of fresh and fruity nuggets that smells of summer and it is also the first partnership that the vape has opened with a very famous food brand. In short, if you like the legendary granita that is machine-pulled on the beach boulevards, you will find what you are looking for here to vape in the fresh air.

The bottle can hold 60ml and carries 50ml of overdosed aroma. Natively offered in 0 nicotine, you just need to extend it with 10 ml of booster to obtain 3 mg/ml or even 10 ml of neutral base in order to maintain a zero rate.

The price is in the median of market prices, namely 19.90 €. It should be noted that there is a version of 30 ml in concentrate which I estimate the price between 13 and 14 €.

In short, a new nugget served to us by the head flavourist which can largely compensate for the lack of air conditioning in your car!

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects

One does not become number 1 without sacrificing on the altar of security and legislation. Point bar. And it's been a very long time since Alfaliquid, long before anyone else, showed its credentials in this area. No wonder that here again, we are on the perfect in this area.

It's clear, it's clean, at the same time user-friendly but also legislator-friendly! Hat trick !

Comments on the packaging

Why change a graphic recipe that works? We are on familiar ground and we find a design very similar to the four previous references in the range, whether soft or hard!

The aesthetic is successful and evokes the nonchalance of scorching weather, the promised freshness as well as the rainbow colors of the partner. Enough to inspire the most unrepentant gourmets when it's 40° in the shade.

This does not exclude great informative clarity, security obliges. Flawless!

Comments on the taste of the juice

The challenge is won from the tasting of the first puff.

We thus find a very tight cocktail between blackcurrant and blackberry, with Granita sauce. That is to say with enough sweetening agent to make the liquid sweet and syrupy. Exactly like the one that shines with its color in the dedicated machine!

The blackcurrant has been there from the start. It is sweet, charming and signs its presence sheet in the blink of an eye by imposing its typical flavor. The blackberry quickly joins him and the duo will work together until the very end of the puff. The blackberry adds a certain aromatic depth and perfectly complements the more tangy inclinations of the blackcurrant.

The balance works wonderfully and at the same time distills indulgence, fruity nuances of undergrowth and the regressive side of a syrup. The freshness is marked but does not carry the throat, soft obliges. It tends to accumulate as you puff and you end up feeling this freshness in the mouth for a long time.

Speaking of length in the mouth, it is also the case of the taste which lasts long moments after the puff.

A successful concentrate of blue and black fruits. We want more!!!

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting

You extend your aroma with 10 ml of booster or neutral base or your own mix of the two, you shake and you are ready to vape! Given the viscosity of the liquid which has opted for a wise base in 50/50, you can even use it in all vape devices. From the big, very generous and open DL clearo to the small, nervous pod and MTL, Mûre Cassis will excel in both cases, its aromatic power being sufficient to face everything.

Perfectly credible in all-day, it will be just as comfortable on its own as in addition to a white alcohol or an exotic fruit cocktail that it will shake up in taste.

My mood ticket on this juice

Generous in taste and sensation, this new Mûre Cassis marks, with its colleague Cola, the great return of the Granita range at this early start to summer.

Offering enough to protect against the sun's rays while always having excellent flavors in the mouth, this liquid is a great success in the category. At the same time soft, fresh and sweet, it will perfectly meet the needs of vapers looking for freshness and/or comfort.

Top Vapelier for a summer juice that does not lack a certain elegance.
