Comments on the packaging
For all those who have slept over the last ten years, Taffe-elec is an online shop that has been established for just as long and which has brought joy to its many customers. But it is also a designer and manufacturer of liquids who has put together, step by step, a whole range of highly recommendable juices which concerns both beginners in vaping and experienced ones.
Today, we continue the exploration with the Classic USA-Mix whose name, if not displaying wild originality, will at least have the merit of being clear about what it offers.
Our liquid exists in several variations, as is often the case in the range. First, there is the 50 ml version which offers as much aroma in a 70 ml container, very practical for adding one or two nicotine boosters. This version will therefore concern those who vape at 3 mg/ml or 6 mg/ml. It is based on a balanced base of 50/50 PG/VG, a true industry standard, which has acquired its letters of nobility by proposing a compromise that some would describe as ideal. The price of the format is €9.90, which means a friendly price, half the usual price among competitors!
The Classic USA-Mix also exists in 10 ml version for €3.90. Here it offers various nicotine levels: 0, 3, 6, 11 and 16 mg/ml. Something to please everyone. In this version, it is installed on a 70/30 PG/VG base, more fluid and generating a little more precision and hit but requiring specific equipment to be vaped comfortably. MTL pods, for example.
There is also a version with nicotine salts which we will see later in another review and which offers rates of 10 and 20 mg/ml.
Suffice to say that it seems at the very least complicated not to find happiness if the flavor of the liquid happens to please you. And this is what we will see next…. Come on, I won't leave you with this terrifying suspense, I'll move on!

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects
In this chapter, the manufacturer appears to be the same color as the bottle: transparent! It's simple, nothing is missing. It's legal and informative as it should be. Proof that it can be done inexpensively but seriously.
The brand warns of the presence of ethanol in the flavors. It's square and ultimately not important since vegetable glycerin and propylene glycol are also from the same chemical family: that of alcohols. On the other hand, you will not find, and that is good, sucralose, the brand having banned this questionable molecule.

Comments on the packaging
On a light beige background, falling tobacco leaves stand out which evoke autumn and basic information such as the name of the product, that of the brand and the necessary information to be brought to the attention of the consumer.
The design is very successful. He shows himself to be sober and it is in this humility that the aesthetic hits the mark and acquires an elegance which, like all elegances, resides above all in restraint.
A double tip of the hat for having placed a tilting dropper, very effective when adding your booster(s). A very fine dropper, ideal for filling all tanks with precision.

Vapelier's note on the sensory experience: 4.38/5 
Comments on the taste of the juice
The Classic USA-Mix offers us a generous and quite intense tobacco which is reminiscent of an American blend between the blondness of Virginia, the power of Burley and the sweetness of an oriental tobacco. It displays vegetal, even floral notes at times and is direct and frank from the necklace.
Its legitimate harshness is offset by the presence of a caramel in the pan, which adds an evocative note to the whole but also a slight pleasant bitterness. Be careful, this presence remains subtle and certainly brings character but we are not overly indulgent in tobacco either.
As usual in the range, the balances are finely dosed and the recipe quickly takes root in the mouth.
It is a very pleasant liquid to vape, which also benefits from a fairly full texture in the mouth. It will please lovers of rigorous tobacco with the “little something extra” that pleasantly teases the taste buds.
A liquid to discover to get a more precise idea, undoubtedly less “unifying” than the Classic from the same range but no less interesting.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
If it goes wonderfully as a duo with an espresso, it is on its own that the Classic USA-Mix acquires its letters of nobility.
If its viscosity and its aromatic power make it entirely compatible with MTL pods and atomizers, in my opinion it takes off quite freely in RDL. With a measured but substantial air supply, the ratio between precision of flavors and volume of vapor benefits it, without distorting its taste.

My mood ticket on this juice
A nice number, this Classic USA-Mix which rekindles the debate between gourmet tobaccos and gourmand tobaccos. Here, the point is clear and the clear choice of the brand allows the existence of a tobacco which should please the greatest number of people, beginners included.
Personally, if I preferred other references from the range in the same category, I appreciated the vaper and I recognize its generosity, especially with a more unbridled airflow.
