Comments on the packaging
The French e-liquid brand “Curieux E-Liquides” based in Paris offers us its “Framboise Cassis” juice from the new 1900 range which includes 6 different liquids with flavors of fruit blends. Indeed, these e-liquids are duets of subtle and sought after fruits.
The new 1900 range is composed of e-liquids in 100% vegetable base with Vegetol (substitute for non-irritating PG, healthier to vape, it does not affect the viscosity of the e-liquid) and VG only.
The “Raspberry Cassis” is packaged inside a cardboard box in a transparent flexible plastic bottle with a capacity of 50ml of liquid. The product being overdosed in aroma, it will therefore be necessary either to add 10ml of neutral base, or to add a booster in order to obtain in the end 60ml of juice. The tip of the bottle is unscrewed to facilitate the maneuver.
The base of the recipe is mounted with a ratio of 40% vegetable and 60% VG, the nicotine level is 0mg / ml. The liquid can be boosted in order to obtain a juice with a nicotine level of 3 mg / ml, the bottle being able to accommodate up to 60 ml of juice.
The “Raspberry Cassis” liquid is offered at a price of € 24,90 and thus ranks among the entry level liquids. It is also available in a “collector” version in a bottle containing 200ml of product at a price of € 74,90.

Comments on the packaging
The packaging of the liquids offered by Curieux E-Liquides is really well done and finished, very beautiful in appearance, the Raspberry Cassis is no exception to the rule.
Whether on the box or the bottle label, all data is perfectly clear and legible. The design fits really well with the name of the liquid thanks in particular to the illustrations of the fruits representing the flavors of the juice.
The cardboard box has shiny and smooth finishes, the brand logo deposited on it is slightly embossed.
The design of the set represents muses inspired by the Art Nouveau style of the Alphonse Mucha era. These works are drawn by hand by the artistic director of Curieux E-Liquides, a small video is available on the kitclope website, this work is well done.

Comments on the taste of the juice
The Raspberry Cassis liquid is a fruity type juice, when opening the bottle, a pleasant fruity smell is felt, the sweet notes of the recipe are also perceptible.
In terms of taste, Raspberry Cassis has good aromatic power, the flavors are perfectly identifiable and felt in the mouth, they are tastefully faithful.
The distribution of aromas in the composition is homogeneous, we are here with a good sweet red fruit juice whose acidity is quite light, it is not disgusting.
The raspberry is present while being quite sweet, it is juicy and well fruity. The blackcurrant does not take on too much, it is slightly tart. The mixture of aromas is relatively well done.
The subtle acidity of the whole gives the recipe some pep, sometimes even a relative “freshness”.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
The Raspberry Cassis being overdosed in aromas, I added 10ml of booster to obtain a juice with a nicotine rate of 3mg / ml. The cotton used is Holy Fiber from HOLY JUICE LAB and the power is set to 26W in order to preserve the relative freshness of the juice.
With this configuration of vape, the inspiration is soft, the passage in the throat and the hit obtained are quite light, we already feel the subtle acidity of the recipe.
On the exhale, the fruity and juicy flavors of the raspberry appear, a rather sweet raspberry. They are immediately followed by the flavors of blackcurrant which are expressed in particular thanks to their slight acidity but very present.
At the end of the tasting, the tangy notes of the composition last a short time in the mouth, giving the juice a certain pep or even a relative freshness, it is pleasant in the mouth, the liquid is not disgusting.

My mood ticket on this juice
The Raspberry Cassis liquid is a fruity type juice whose aromas have good aromatic power. The two flavors are perfectly felt in the mouth and therefore clearly identifiable.
The raspberry contributes to the fruity and juicy notes of the recipe while the blackcurrant brings its tangy, well-controlled touch.
The distribution of aromas in the composition is homogeneous, no flavor takes precedence over the other. The relative acidity of the juice offers a certain pep in the mouth and provides a certain freshness at the end of the tasting.
The liquid is not disgusting, on the contrary, an excellent juicy, sweet and slightly tart fruity duo whose flavors are tastefully faithful, a “Top Juice” deserved for this addictive fruity association.
