Comments on the packaging

Liquideo is undoubtedly one of the largest French manufacturers of e-liquids. The Dandy range marked in its time the passage from the liquid for beginners to a more elaborate and recieved series so as to also interest the confirmed vapers. Faced with the success of this range, Liquideo bounced back by releasing the X-Bud range a little later, in an identical state of mind. Today, we are testing the CLUB, gourmet tobacco from the Dandy range, “snuffbox” section.

The packaging is correct and presents well. The juice is delivered in a black opaque glass bottle closed with a simple plastic stopper but it is delivered with an additional pipette stopper (do not hesitate to ask for it in your shops if you do not receive it spontaneously because this is abnormal). However, we regret the glaring absence of information on the rate of PG / VG which is nevertheless very useful when making a choice. Too bad… Information taken, it seems that the range oscillates between rates of 50/50 to 70/30. For the Club, I think we are more on the 50/50 but without any certainty.

Vapelier's note regarding the respect of various conformities (except religious): 4.5 / 5 4.5 5 out of stars

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects

We note here the absence of child safety which is very damaging because, although it is above all up to parents to monitor this type of product, it is all the same a pity that the manufacturer has not thought of remedying everything. risk of exposure by providing a fitted cap.

Otherwise, the rest is in line with what we are entitled to expect from an e-liquid today. The DLUO and the batch number are unfortunately not very readable, due to the use of an ink which fades over time. 

We therefore remain, despite the Club's good rating in this area, on a mixed record that an additional effort from Liquideo could easily improve.

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

Comments on the packaging

The packaging has been very neat by the manufacturer who offers us a very elegant bottle, all dressed in black. Classy and timeless, it perfectly matches the “Dandy” label claimed in the name of the range. In addition, the opaque black glass used will allow good preservation of the e-liquid and its protection against ultra-violet rays. What to regret all the more the lack of information on the levels of propylene glycol and vegetable glycerin and the absence of a child safety which would have made the product and its packaging in all respects perfect.

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

Comments on the taste of the juice

Blond and dry tobacco is predominant and serves as a support for a wide range of taste tones. Slightly vanilla and alcoholic, the liquid ends in the mouth with a very pleasant toasted coconut finish. The whole is very compact and no aroma stands out frankly but the recipe has probably been designed to enhance the taste of the whole and not the flavor of each aroma. It's successful, light, not disgusting and should garner the adhesions of gourmet tobacco lovers. I swallowed the 15ml in two days without realizing it. The hit is present but not violent and the vapor released is correct. While increasing in power, before reaching the threshold where the juice loses its superb, we detect a strong note of whiskey which was well compacted with the other aromas and which becomes more important as we climb to the watt scale.

Tasting recommendations

  • Recommended power for optimal taste: 16 W

A vape on a device allowing a warm / hot temperature to enjoy the fullness of the recipe. Avoid exceeding a certain threshold of power which makes losing its taste interest to the Club.

My mood ticket on this juice

The Club is undeniably a success. In some ways, it is similar to some high-end American juices, a little dry and very full in taste. Although not stingy in flavors, it avoids the trap of “too sweet” and “too creamy” which are sometimes very useful for masking defects. The Club is cash and has nothing to hide! The gourmet recipe works very well and goes perfectly with a good coffee. This is not a revolution but rather an applied and sincere interpretation of a well-known score. In any case, it's a real treat that I can only advise you to try because if you like gourmet tobacco, you are likely to become addicted to it.
