Comments on the packaging

And we continue our exploration of the “Specialties” range from Fuu. After an Italian Vapo Spritz, a Caribbean Man 'O' War, here comes the British answer in terms of cocktails with hushed steps on a golden velvet carpet: the Cucumber Collins. And as much to tell you that if, in terms of gastronomy, I would always prefer a boeuf bourguignon than a stuffed sheep's stomach, I will attach myself with devotion and respect to the tasting of this liquid because the English have a knack for subtle cocktails and amazing.

Presented in a 30ml plastic vial, the Cucumber Collins does not make chi-chi but will readily lend itself to the easy filling of all your atos, equipped as it is with a fine tip and the plastic being flexible enough to project the liquid out. from his den. No UV protection so be careful not to leave it in direct sunlight. 

The information, as always with the Parisian manufacturer, is exhaustive and, just by reading the label and in view of the available nicotine levels (0, 3 and 6mg / ml), we realize that we goes towards an aerial liquid that will help create high intensity clouds in case the autumn sun dazzles you.

Comments on the packaging

I love. 

When PDT came along, one of the collateral damage was that manufacturers no longer had to put attractive images on their bottles. Whose act, the law is stupid but it is the law! Fuu found the parade here by suggesting a whole universe only through the use of different colors.

Thus the label, which comes in different shades of green and navy blue, becomes very evocative of the taste of the liquid and, just by looking at it, we know that we are not dealing with a dairy dessert or a banana cake. We know that there will be freshness (the blue), herbal or fruity tones (the green) and a slight astringency (the green-yellow of the liquid). Full cardboard box especially as the graphics are beautiful in their simplicity and are reminiscent of the covers of old recipe books or alcohol labels.

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

Comments on the taste of the juice

According to the rule of the house that when it's not good, it must be said but when it's good, it must be screamed, so I left for a few lines screaming enjoyment.

The Cucumber Collins is an excellent liquid benefiting from a perfect assembly to give all the possible sensations around softness and freshness. The dominant element is a well-made gin, more Hendrick's than Gordon's for amateurs, which imposes its sober alcoholic but very robust fragrance. It is the centerpiece of the book. A generous swig of cane sugar makes it imperceptibly fall into the sweet tooth, making the liquid affordable to vape, even for those who don't like the alcohol in question.

An impression of cucumber typifies the whole cocktail. Perceptible, it offers its particular taste but imposes its aqueous texture that gently floods the palate. The tasting ends on a sprig of spearmint which brings freshness to the cocktail without distorting the purpose. Sometimes it seems to me to discover a slight dash of lime but I admit that I could be wrong. 

The whole is soft, subtle. At no time do we have a taste of raw alcohol or untimely freshness. At no time does the taste of the cucumber infringe on the other elements. It is a delicate exercise, in perfect balance, which will appeal to fruity lovers as much as to others. Its very sweet aspect makes it even accessible to unrepentant gourmets of which I am one. High class !

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting

The Cucumber Collins is comfortable in any type of setup. Just opt ​​for a rather dedicated flavor atomizer. Well in a tank, it explodes on a good dripper where all the aromas will become perceptible and optimal. The temperature must be lukewarm, without excess heat, in order to preserve its freshness naturally little marked. It generates beautiful clouds and accommodates both an aerial draft and a tighter airflow.

Its hit is light but the softness being in the genetics of the range, it is not surprising. It will suit confirmed vapers, experienced in the exercise of taste appreciation in terms of vape, regardless of their type of vape.

My mood ticket on this juice

I really loved this liquid because it surprised me the whole way. Firstly by its sweetness and the precision of its aromas and secondly because it does not tire the taste buds after 5 or 10ml. 

Its freshness is real but not caricatured, the index having been put on the taste rather than on a strong sensation. But it is above all in the originality of its blend and its readily sweet appearance that the real emotion is found. A very British emotion, all in restraint and felted. A liquid for gentlemen and ladies that I can only advise you to test urgently (juice, not ladies ...)

I give him a Top Juice for his obvious qualities that will appeal to fans of the genre but also to those who like to be surprised.
