Comments on the packaging
A glass bottle TPD ready is proposed for each juice of the range Alfasiempre, in 10 ml therefore. A pipette cap and a remarkable labeling of efficiency, alongside the safety of use of a packaging respectful of consumers and present and future regulations.
For a recommended price of 6,90 € you will have California 0, 3, 6, 12, or 16mg / ml of nicotine, not 18 nor 20, yet still allowed, so its rates disappear for reasons of sub ohm mode and excessive heating, significantly increasing the impression of hit, much to the chagrin of ex-smokers who would often prefer to wean themselves off at more significant doses, quiet vaping ... Already Alfaliquid rises to 16mg, I do not they will not be reproached for giving in to this fashion.

Vapelier's note regarding packaging with regard to juice category: 5 / 5
Comments on the packaging
The clear glass bottle does not spare the contents the unwanted effects of UV rays from the sun, so you will be sure to protect it yourself.
On a graphic marketing plan, this vial is very well thought, on both sides of the presentation, you find the administrative indications and precautions for use.
The commercial side is a small marvel of informative and aesthetic consistency. For its 50/50 premium range dedicated to tobacco flavors, the team of designers simply represented in the upper part a cartridge, with the black and white portrait of Che Guevara which we also remember, as an inveterate fan of Cuban cigars.
The shape of the label is reminiscent of the rings adorning the good big handmade puros. Are integrated in small windows: the ratio of the base, the volume of the vial, the nicotine level and of course, the name of the range, attributes common to all Alfasiempre liquids. In the lower part, on a colored ribbon, is indicated the name of the juice, it is differentiated for each flavor, by its own color.

Vapelier's note on the sensory experience: 5/5
Comments on the taste of the juice
The California is the kind of gourmet tobacco, the greed here is comparable to the Chouchous fairgrounds, not praline (with chocolate) but the peanut coated with caramel. The realism of this flavor is quite authentic.
The blond tobacco is durably softened throughout the puff and its expiration. However, it is present and gives the juice a flavor less syrupy than caramel could predict.
Not outrageously powerful, the California remains in the mouth satisfactorily, The hit at 6mg / ml is light, the amount of steam is correct for 50 / 50. Perfectly transparent it does not deposit calamine quickly on the coil. Prefer the vaper hot, it supports pretty well rising power.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
Any type of ato suits him, in fact, your favorite ato will be the best. A dedicated dripper flavor will be ideal to combine tastes with steam production, 0,3Ω and 50 / 55W you will have a hot vape quite appropriate and I have personally appreciated.
This is of course an experiment not to be attempted on a tight clearomizer, where the mounting values will have to oscillate between 0,5 and 1,5Ω for a suitable power.

My mood ticket on this juice
Another ideal juice for a smooth smoking transition. The California is pleasant to vape without being stubborn or too sweet, it leaves you an impression of scents of the childhood, atmosphere of the fairgrounds.
It is in the perspective of the springboard towards the vape that I give it this Top Juice, but this liquid will also convince the nostalgic regulars, for my part, the 10ml of the bottle left in fragrant mist during the day, it does however a lease that I quit smoking. With this range, Alfaliquid promises to hit hard without pain, where others do not hesitate to hit you by slowly killing you, as Coluche said: “choose your comrade camps”.
Thank you for reading, good vape,
See you soon.
