Comments on the packaging
The new standards in force and the health directive prohibit any incitement or promotion to the consumption of e-liquid. This starts from the label and is available in all communication media.
Under these restrictive conditions, it is not surprising to find oneself in a relatively neutral visual environment.
Nevertheless, the Cirkus range succeeds in conveying an attractive image, from the circus world, whose logo allows easy identification. The whole is well done, well organized, offering easy reading of the different indications.

Comments on the taste of the juice
From the Authentic Classics range, this Blend is among the most virile Cirkus.
Its blend, a blend of blond tobacco, is supported by a powerful Burley.
Once again, the percentage of vegetable glycerin serves the recipe well, allowing it to retain a little roundness.
The aromatic power is moderate but this reference knows how to last long enough in the mouth.
The volume of steam corresponds to 50% of vegetable glycerin and the hit is sensitive as soon as the 3 mg / ml of nicotine received for this evaluation.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
Like “tobacco” generally, this Blend will be more at ease in lukewarm / hot steam devices and with a “tight” finish. In a “normal” range of use, I did not notice any depreciation in the flavors in the face of a rise in temperature.
Afterwards, as usual, I leave it to you to find the (your) best-suited settings between the juice and your own equipment ...

Overall average (excluding packaging) of the Vapelier for this juice: 4.38 / 5

My mood ticket on this juice
The Classic Blend is once again a serious proposition in the “tobacco” offer of the Cirkus range. The recipe is believable and realistic for a juice that will satisfy lovers of potions with a slightly more assertive character.
This offer from VDLV will allow newcomers to vaping a “gentle” weaning from the one the community calls: the killer. Its judicious PG / VG ratio allows consumers with more efficient devices to also find real reasons for satisfaction.
“Classic” but for good reasons.
See you soon for new hazy adventures,
