Comments on the packaging

Taffe-Elec, is a company from the north of France which has decided to develop a range of Tabac liquids. To satisfy first-time vapers (and others), they have given themselves interesting challenges. In particular that of producing 100% French liquids. Today I am testing the Classic TE-M. It is delivered, like its little comrades, in flexible plastic vials of 10ml.

The first challenge, when you quit smoking, is to wean yourself off nicotine properly. Classic TE-M, and the other 4 liquids from Taffe-Elec offer a nicotine panel in 0, 3, 6, 11 and 16 mg / ml. We can start at the strongest, and gradually separate from this addictive substance.

The second challenge is to find a liquid that can be used easily in any material, without clogging it too much. With a 70/30 pg / yd ratio, the liquid offered is very… liquid. It is quickly absorbed by the cotton and does little clogging the resistance.

The third challenge is to save money. The Classic TE-M is exchanged for 3,9 € on the Taffe-Elec website. (I haven't seen them elsewhere). This price is more than honorable and is among the lowest on the market.

The last challenge is of course the most important, it is to produce a tasty, pleasant liquid that will make you want to buy back a pack of cigarettes. This challenge, we will find out if it is won.

Vapelier's note regarding the respect of various conformities (except religious): 5 / 5 5 5 out of stars

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects

In this chapter, I observed that all legal and security requirements had been met.

Warning pictograms are present. The raised triangle for the visually impaired is located on the label.

However, I have a point for the graphic designers of the label for this range. Unless you have Superman's gift of sight, the information regarding the product name, pg / yd rate, and nicotine level is so small that it is almost unreadable. When you receive 5 liquids whose label is almost identical and only the name of the liquids distinguishes them, it is very annoying. I decided to use my magnifying glasses so as not to get the wrong vial…

By scrolling down the label, you will find the name of the company and a phone number for customer service. Regarding the best before date and the batch number of the liquid, this information can be found under the bottle.

Appreciation of the packaging

  • Does the graphic design of the label and the product name agree ?: Yes
  • Global correspondence of the packaging with the product name: Yes
  • The packaging effort made is in accordance with the price category: Yes

Vapelier's note regarding packaging with regard to juice category: 5 / 5 5 5 out of stars

Comments on the packaging

Not much to say about this label which remains very basic. I would have preferred that the name of the liquid made the size of the name of the company to be able to more easily distinguish the bottles. In fact, we only see the name of Taffe-Elec. Very small, below is the name of the liquid. It's a shame, it is true that at this price, we will not require a label signed by a great designer, but we can demand readability.

Sensory appreciations

  • Color and product name agree ?: Yes
  • Do the smell and the name of the product agree ?: Yes
  • Definition of odor: Fruity, Blond Tobacco
  • Definition of taste: Sweet, Fruit, Tobacco
  • The taste and the name of the product, do they agree ?: Yes
  • Did I like this juice ?: Yes
  • This liquid reminds me: a fruity cherry tobacco

Vapelier's note on the sensory experience: 5/5 5 5 out of stars

Comments on the taste of the juice

So here we are. Will the flavor of this liquid be up to the challenge? I open the bottle and the smell of blond tobacco is there, a smell of red fruit too.

I use for this test, the Taifun GT3, a rather modular atomizer, going from the tight vape to more aerial. When inspired, it is the blond tobacco from Virginia that comes first. Its flavor is sweet and sweet. The note is quite long in the mouth. The flavor of red fruit, I would say cherry, comes next and takes its place naturally in your palate.

This marriage is very well done. These two flavors make it a fine, soft, slightly sweet liquid. The yd rate of 70 gives this liquid its lightness and brings a sustained taste. The hit felt in the throat is medium and the vapor produced is quite correct for a ratio like this.

Tasting recommendations

  • Recommended power for optimal taste: 25 W
  • Type of steam obtained at this power: Normal (type T2)
  • Hit type obtained at this power: Medium
  • Atomizer used for the review: Taifun GT III
  • Value of the resistance of the atomizer in question: 0.8 Ω
  • Materials used with the atomizer: Kantal, Holy Fiber Cotton

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting

The first recommendation is to pay attention to the low viscosity of this liquid. Make sure to close the airflow when you fill your tank. You don't need to climb the towers to appreciate this liquid. It appreciates very well below 30w. I chose a tight vape to taste it better. Given its pg / yd ratio, it will suit all materials and all vapers.

Try it at the time of the aperitif, on a whiskey (to drink in moderation, of course), you will tell me the news!

Recommended Moments

  • Recommended times of the day: Morning, Morning - coffee breakfast, Morning - chocolate breakfast, Morning - tea breakfast, Aperitif, Lunch / dinner, End of lunch / dinner with coffee, End of lunch / dinner with a digestif, All afternoon during everyone's activities, Early evening to relax with a drink, End of the evening with or without herbal tea, Night for insomniacs
  • Can this juice be recommended as an All Day Vape: Yes

Overall average (excluding packaging) of the Vapelier for this juice: 4.41 / 5 4.4 5 out of stars

My mood ticket on this juice

Taffe-Elec enters the circle of liquid inventors through the front door. Even if the range offered does not win Top Jus, this classic TE-M is tasty, light, pleasant in the mouth, and very cheap.

I fully validate the challenge and I hope to cross my path with this kind of liquid in a short time. But please, dear designers, pay attention to the legibility of your labels. Not all vapers are 20 years old and have lynx eyes!
