Comments on the packaging
- ”Get off your horse John Wayne, he's been dead in the desert for 3 days“
- "No big deal Johnny Boy, I'm going to make him vape Brave, he will resuscitate"
The VDLV team is going to put a blow in the image of the gunslinger drinking his filthy coffee on a full moon night in the middle of the arid desert. The Brave of the Cirkus range risks transforming it. He risks becoming a serious fan of the drink typical of his generation and making him become a sort of connoisseur of black grain.
Failing to have the shape of a buffalo skin gourd, it is in a 10ml glass presentation with its push stopper (pipette) and its sealing ring. Nicotine levels are 0, 3, 6 and 12mg / ml and its construction is done on a 50/50 PG / VG basis.
The price is 6,50 € for 10ml. This is consistent in view of its glass bottle and the work done for this range of e-liquids focused on the different flavors mixing tobacco and gourmet elements.

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects
By dint of going around the flask to try to find the black point that could make me say: ”Ha !!!! Fault! “, I get dizzy for nothing. You would have to have a third eye to be able to emerge victorious because, as usual with the manufacturer, everything is in the rules.
Take the various demands of the legislator and try your luck. I couldn't find fault with anything. Everything is in place and in such a way that you do not realize it. It is well proportioned and well laid out.
The information comes before the eyes without effort and informs everything that must be known for consumers eager to know and wisdom. So, as we say: AFNOR for ever.

Comments on the packaging
The die-hard cowboys were simple characters in their intentions (kill or be killed) so not overly “frills” in formatting. It's simple and gets straight to the point.
In the spirit that accompanies this range, the patterns are in the Western standard with a nod to the level of the cartoon's typo. In the middle of the West, you can vape while remaining big children and this is what VDLV wants to highlight.
The more sophisticated packaging can be found in the other Cirkus ranges. Here, it is more the fun spirit of the B movies than that of the great rides of the northern cavalry which never arrives in time.

Vapelier's note on the sensory experience: 5/5
Comments on the taste of the juice
It is aptly named: The Brave. Everything is there or almost. On the smell, it is an impression of opening of coffee bag in grain with a light touch of biscuit (cookie).
The blond tobacco used is set back to make room for a coffee, but what a coffee !!!!! Excellent and not at all massive despite its fairly substantial aroma content from my point of view. The mixture between the two is completed to leave the fluidity of the espresso and the patina of the blond tobacco.
Then the cookie appears to give the feeling of having soaked the cookie (no bad thoughts, please) like in a “breakfast” in the morning. I feel this image of the cake which comes to decompose in the mouth after having soaked it in my black liquid of the alarm clock. It is a very personal perception but very faithful.
There remains in the mouth, after exhalation, a strong coffee content (but not disgusting) and also this cookie impression. Tobacco, on the other hand, is very much behind.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
You can send him the watts. He does not fear heat, this Brave. You can open or tighten the airflows, it adjusts itself to your liking.
From 17W to 30W, it goes wild and the sugar aspect, which can have the cake effect, takes off and brings its share of pleasure. At 35W, it still does not move and remains in its taste line. From 40W, I can no longer see my screen to write but the flavor still does not flinch. We recharge the Narda for a 45W and ……………… What to say if not hat VDLV, the total control of a recipe which exults the taste buds.
At 50W, the cottons are immersed in the juice and its breaking point has just been reached. It's cool because I had no more batteries in stock.

My mood ticket on this juice
A slap, a Top Juice and a liquid to accompany breakfast, lunch, the end of dinner and when, at the time, I took out a cigar to match one of my evening liqueurs with friends.
VDLV comes out of the heavy with this Brave. A coffee bean recipe rather than the everlasting coffee spoon. It balances its charm and comes to perfect a range Classic Wanted to which it missed this variation caffeinated in its tobaccos.
The Brave is a major e-liquid in this range and I think it will very easily find its vaping audience who already have some taste experience and who are looking for a very realistic coffee matrix. But, it can also please and bring a superb discovery to the uninitiated on this kind of flavor.
The cowboys of the vape will swap their old rusty coffee cups to replace them with new porcelain ones because it is a “strong and silky” liquid.
