Comments on the packaging
Today we continue our exploration of the rich catalog of liquids from Taffe-elec. If you don't know, this distributor has existed in the world of vaping for 10 years and delights many vapers with a careful offer, both in terms of equipment and liquid. It is therefore not insignificant that an e-shop with a storefront manufactures and distributes its own juices, especially when the prices are driven down, in contrast to the quality which remains impeccable.
We therefore approach the Classic TE-K, a barbaric acronym which is enough to drive an NSA analyst crazy for its understanding! This is therefore a tobacco liquid, which joins the large part of the collection devoted to it.
It comes to us in a 10 ml format available in various nicotine levels: 0, 3, 6, 11 and 16 mg/ml. Suffice it to say, the quinté in order which will delight beginners and experienced alike.
Assembled on a 70/30 PG/VG base, our liquid of the day has a significant fluidity which will confine it to small equipment, MTL pods or clearomizers of the same type. A choice towards a more consensual 50/50 would undoubtedly have allowed it the same use while not condemning the more imposing systems.
We will particularly appreciate the fineness of the dropper (pouring spout) which will allow the cartridges to be filled with ease and the quality of the container, very flexible, which therefore increases its ease.
The other tobaccos in the range have largely won us over, so we expect a taste to the nines with this Classic TE-K.

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects
When it's not good, it's important to say it, but when it's perfect, it becomes imperative to keep quiet! In fact, everything is there, everything is perfect. So, I shut up!

Comments on the packaging
I have already had the opportunity on numerous occasions to say all the good things I thought about the packaging of the range. Alas, the bottle that I have in my possession still sports the old design which is, how should I put it... which is not... uh... fun.
This therefore explains the transhumance towards a more current aesthetic and it is fortunate because the old packaging displayed identical characteristics with an eye drop or a nasal spray. I have saved the visual presentation of this masterpiece in the main image of this review which will be replaced quickly, while stocks run out, by modern packaging, that of the rest of the range, which is impeccable! This is the one I highlighted in the image.

Comments on the taste of the juice
As usual, it is an excellent tobacco that invades our mouth from the first puff. Different from previous references, it approaches a more amber flavor, very blond in its content but which testifies to the specific work of a gifted flavorist. The tobacco readily appears round to the taste buds, with subtly harsh notes and a dry, even astringent texture.
There are also notes of nuts in the mix. However, they remain indeterminate, sometimes evoking a hazelnut, an almond or even a walnut, macadamia or pecan, in its mixture. The result is quite delicious but difficult to pin down.
The recipe is at the same time more affordable because the dried fruits provide hold and a nice length to the tobacco, also giving it character and at the same time more hazy than the rest of the range in the same category or the references amazed us with a precision which, here, is lacking.
The Classic TE-K remains very pleasant to vape and even becomes addictive when you ignore the analysis to let yourself be carried away by its interesting and quite unique taste.

My mood ticket on this juice
Undoubtedly a little slower to tame than the other tobacco references in the range, the Classic TE-K is no less worthy of interest. More amber than its predecessors, it has the merit of offering a taste that is not all-purpose, the kind of flavor that justifies its presence within the range without duplicating another.
More typical for beginners, it will allow gourmet moments around a tobacco that the manufacturer, obviously, masters.
