Comments on the packaging
At the start of the year, we continue our exploration of the in-house range of Taffe-elec liquids. A collection which covers all taste categories, which is aimed at beginner vapers but also at more experienced ones and which has reserved for us some good surprises for the moment, enough to trigger all our interest in view of the exceptional price of each product.
Today, we are back on our feet with a tobacco liquid, Classic TE-M which, beyond its obscure and not really sexy name, promises us tasty mysteries, as you will see later.
It comes to us in a 70 ml capacity bottle carrying 50 ml of overdosed aroma. Do not vape as is, therefore. We can add 1 or 2 boosters to bring its nicotine level to 3 mg/ml in the first case or 6 mg/ml in the second.
Its price immediately sets the debates since it sells for €9.90, half the usual price among competitors! In this format, it is assembled on a 50/50 PG/VG base, an excellent choice both for obtaining a viscosity allowing use on all types of equipment and for a good balance between precision of flavors and volume of vapor.
It also exists in 10 ml format for an astonishing price of €3.90 and then presents nicotine levels of 0, 3, 6, 11 and 16 mg/ml. Something to interest all vapers! Here, on the other hand, we will be on a 70/30 PG/VG basis, certainly interesting for consuming the liquid in rather old clearos or pods but a little outdated given the propensity of modern equipment to pass viscosities more important.
We are pleased to note the great finesse of the dropper, in both sizes, which will allow easy filling of all devices. No sooner said than done, I'm ready to try this liquid!

Comments on the packaging
I have already had the opportunity to say all the good things I thought of this packaging.
Clarity of information, naive aesthetic particularly suitable for elegant but sophisticated packaging. A pastel background in shades of beige, the brand logo at the bottom of the bottle and the product name in the center.
In short, it’s a strike! The design respects the imposed figures of the legislation while being sober enough not to draw attention to itself. Very well thought out from an inspired designer.

Comments on the taste of the juice
Surprisingly, the Classic TE-M is as smooth and smooth as it is strong on the hit. And it's a good thing. We expect a minimum amount of potency from a tobacco liquid so that it evokes the past delights of Nicot weed.
We are on a very relevant blonde, more of a blend where Virginia takes the lion's share. However, all the spicy asperities and the harshness inherent to this tobacco are erased by a sweet presence. After a few puffs, we discover red fruits, sweet raspberry in particular, which round out the recipe and give it an elegant side. It almost feels like a flavored pipe tobacco or even a Cavendish.
Be careful, don't expect a surge of fruit, it's just very subtle notes that are only there to accompany the blond tobacco. Just as some major cigarette brands, like W*nston, were already using this subterfuge to stand out.
The recipe is very mastered. The tobacco dominates, and this is what we expect, the fruits give a silky character to the puff. To be honest, I really liked this reference. To be even more frank, I was even very surprised to like it!

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
The versatility of the liquid is total. Perfect for all-day vaping, it can be vaped both solo and as a duo with a simple espresso. The presence of fruit also makes it ideal for pairing with black tea. Tested on Nautilus 3 and on Flexus Stick, in pod, it never loses its precision or its interest.
A little advice: after introducing your booster(s), let it rest for a week. It's even better!

My mood ticket on this juice
Despite its fancy name, the Classic TE-M is a killer!
An excellent adaptation of certain smoking references, it further extrapolates the sensations by being precise, almost surgical and offering an instant of very full and addictive taste.
The perfect tobacco for getting started in vaping. Similar enough to cigarettes not to have a taste withdrawal effect, different enough to very quickly become addicted to the flavor and therefore give up for good this stinking, nauseating and deadly thing that has driven us all here.
Top Vapelier for a nice surprise!
