Comments on the packaging
The category of "tobacco" remains in the plethora of juice and that's good.
While it is true that many newcomers prefer to turn away from this type of flavor that reminds them of memories that are still very much in their minds, “tobacco” also represents the means of weaning gently.
And then there are also those who simply want to rediscover the pleasure, the taste, totally absent from smoked cigarettes but which the oldest among us have known, in nicot weed. For this, there is no weaning point in the sights, but rather the epicurean desire to rediscover much healthier “sensations”…
To these different user profiles of the personal vaporizer, the great VDLV house offers to satisfy our taste buds through a Cirkus Authentic Classics range. Why Classic? Because the legislator sees fit to place us in the category of products derived from tobacco… and the word “Tobacco” has become taboo in the vaposphere.
Legality requires, it is therefore in a transparent plastic packaging and provided with a fine tip at the end that you will find this recipe.
The percentage of vegetable glycerin is 50% for Cirkus products, allowing the greatest homogeneity in terms of the atomization devices that can be used.
The choice of nicotine values is 5 in number in order to satisfy the greatest number: 0, 3, 6, 12 & 16 mg / ml.
The tariff is in the category of entry-level, 5,90 € the 10 ml.

Vapelier's note regarding the respect of various conformities (except religious): 4.63 / 5 
Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects
Let us give VDLV and its LFEL laboratory the legitimate credit for having contributed to the development of “safety and health names” when this young industry, the major health revolution of our century, did not have any.
If today a legal framework (TPD) is defined, our industry did not wait to offer the greatest transparency and the best respect on the products inhaled by our fragile respiratory tracts.
The only pitfall remained in the manufacture of nicotine, necessarily imported, that our Girondins friends resolved by proposing their own product. Here is an additional step of gravity towards a health and a follow-up still increased.
Note that my illustration photos correspond to the old batch ... the one where we could still afford to call a tobacco range by its real name and not a ridiculous euphemism imposed by the technocrats' newspeak ... and that it does not yet include the fold-out leaflet, compulsory from January 2017 and already delivered to the various resellers.

Vapelier's note regarding packaging with regard to juice category: 5 / 5 
Comments on the packaging
The new standards in force and the health directive prohibit any graphic element encouraging the consumption of e-liquid. This goes for etiquette and is available on 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, coming from the circus universe, whose logo allows easy identification. The whole is well done, well organized, offering easy reading of the different indications.

- This liquid reminds me of: The camel brand
Vapelier's note on the sensory experience: 4.38/5 
Comments on the taste of the juice
Typed blond American, this tobacco gives me the impression of not being alone in its composition. I would gladly give it the addition of a more typical tobacco, oriental, Turkish, giving it some spicy notes. This sensation inevitably reminds me of the famous camel brand.
This Classic Gold has a character of its own that will satisfy some and put off others.
For my part, if it does not obtain my full support, it is only on the basis of my necessarily subjective taste values. The recipe is credible, realistic and I find that the 50% vegetable glycerin suits it very well.
I was surprised by the hit of my 3 mg / ml received for this review. Rather present for this “quiet” dosage.
The volume of steam is in line with the ratio, the moderate aromatic power. The presence in the mouth continues ideally: neither too much nor too little.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
Like any self-respecting “Tobacco”, it will be rather lukewarm / hot.
Personally, I prefer this type of potion on tighter draws and it must be recognized that this category of atomizing devices is less represented at the moment.
For the settings and assemblies, it's up to you to decide according to your tastes, expectations and others ...

My mood ticket on this juice
We are once again dealing with a serious Cirkus recipe. Classic Gold faithfully addresses the expected characteristics of this potion.
These “Tobacco” versions are classics and often unfairly confined to the role of weaning for first-time users of vaping. The PG / VG ratio chosen for this range makes it possible to expand the offer to more seasoned vapers and in possession of more efficient equipment.
De facto, this proposal is perfectly credible and realistic.
Added to the intrinsic qualities of its designers… what more could you ask for?
See you soon for new hazy adventures,
