Comments on the packaging
In the series of brands that we discovered in 2021, the entire Vapelier editorial staff fell in love with Mixup Labs, a Basque manufacturer that delighted our taste buds with foodies as if it were raining, all very high quality.
The Chubbiz Gourmand range is dedicated to this heavy task in the lab. It consists of large formats in 50 ml ready to boost. Within this range, the Drive Me Nuts mini-series offers us the alliance of vanilla cream with fruits with very connoted radical gluttony. Peanut, hazelnut, almond and, today, coconut.
It is modestly revealed to us in a bottle that can hold 70 ml, which it will therefore be easy to extend with one or two 10 ml boosters, with or without nicotine, according to your wishes. Thus, one can obtain between 60 and 70 ml of ready to vape between 3 and 6 mg/ml of nicotine approximately. Less if you choose nicotine boosters in 10 mg/ml which are more and more frequent (finally!) in the French vape.
The price of 19.90 € is anything but dissuasive, especially for a product in 50/50 PG/VG, an ideal ratio for a good balance between flavors and volume of vapor and entirely of vegetable origin! Plus, from what I've seen so far, there is one secret ingredient at Mixup Labs that is worth its price: talent!
Let's check that this Drive Me Nuts Coco also contains this famous all-natural component. 😉

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects
Move along, there's nothing to see.
You can be greedy and be completely in the nails of the most finicky regulations. Here, nothing stumbles, everything is limpid, legal, clear as a lake in the Pyrenees under the summer sun.
It's flawless.

Vapelier's note regarding packaging with regard to juice category: 5 / 5
Comments on the packaging
We find the inspired drawing common to the entire mini-series, always well done and very appetizing. The aesthetics are nice, the warnings are in white on a black background. Everything is very readable. We can therefore create beauty, even on a bottle packaging.
Note, for the fearful: the two vertical edges of the label do not meet, which leaves a wide view of the remaining liquid. An excellent point, too often omitted by the liquidators, to always know where we are. Especially when the bottle tends to empty early, I still haven't understood why... 😳 Evaporation no doubt... 🙄 (Editor’s note: That’s it, yes…)

Comments on the taste of the juice
Qualifiers spring up in my brain like nonsense in the speech of a TV journalist: divine, sublime, exceptional… But as I want to remain professional, I will content myself with saying: it's perfect!
After having killed all suspense, we will go a little further.
First, there are two prerequisites for tasting this liquid: you have to like gourmets AND you have to like coconut. If so, hit star because you're going to have a blast. Otherwise, type dièze and you will be redirected to a call platform that will sell you life insurance for not (too) much money.
We now know that Mixup Labs have a vanilla cream recipe that is unbeatable. We don't know how they do it but the result is there. This one is at the same time greedy, wonderfully textured, very full in taste and yet quite parsimonious in sugar. This could be a paradox but it is not, absolute proof that one can achieve excellence without dropping the sugar bowl into the cauldron!
Add to that a really divine coconut and pastry to no longer power and the result is impressive pure gluttony.
We have, in short, a perfectly balanced coconut cream from which emerge some vanilla notes that soften the taste. It's regal! It could remind the most exotic gourmets of a coco blancmange.
The recipe shows an incredible talent in the sense of proportions and the assembly leaves no room for approximation. It's perfect. I told you.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
Based on a ratio of 50/50, the Drive Me Nuts Coco will be good to vape in the atomizer, rebuildable or not, of your choice. Top-coil, bottom-coil, clearo or dripper, nothing scares him. No more the category of material than the level of ventilation, the power or the temperature.
Endowed with a beautiful aromatic power, you can dose it in 3 or 6 mg/ml without losing any of its superb.
To vape while eating white chocolate or drinking hot chocolate, or even on a small shot of amber rum, it will however also be at ease at any time of the day, including all-day since it pushes the elegance never to be disgusting, heady or boring. It is constant, greedy and gourmet all at the same time.

My mood ticket on this juice
The Drive Me Nuts Coco is one of those liquids that make an impression. Personally, I had never tested such a successful juice around coconut treated as a delicacy. It's done with Mixup Labs which, decidedly, delights us with each new reference.
It didn't take much to get a Top Juice and put all the writing on my back since with the brand, I had to draw more than one and my Tops account was dry! 😉
But, what do you want, #Jesuisvapoteur.
