Comments on the packaging

At BordO2, the Classic range has been built and designed for first-time jet pilots and it's much more complicated than we generally think. Unsurprisingly, it is therefore based on a 70/30 ratio of PG / VG and its nicotine levels of 0, 3, 6, 11 and 16mg / ml are calculated in order to best meet the needs of our smoking friends who are 'orient towards the world of clouds of vapor. 

Today we will take a look at El Gringo, whose surname evokes the smell of early morning coffee in the kitchen.

Presented in a simple and effective plastic bottle, it will be all the easier to use it as the dropper (dropper) is of exemplary finesse, well in relation to the fluid base of the e-liquid and which will be able to fill the most reluctant atomizers.

In short, here is a classic e-liquid, sold at 5.90 €, which will have the heavy task of convincing smokers and supporting them in their taste discovery. More than a simple function, a priesthood.

Comments on the packaging

Generally very focused on the development of a beautiful graphic universe, the manufacturer offers us here a simple bottle and a label to match. This does not exclude moreover a certain elegance in the sobriety. 

Significance of the logo, relevance of the choice of clear fonts, label with a double reading level, we are on the traditional but in good tone, favoring use rather than aesthetic research. Again, it is suitable for the target clientele.

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

Comments on the taste of the juice

No surprise, it is a coffee that it is, as the very “local color” name of the e-liquid suggested.

El Gringo offers us a coffee-coffee realistic, slightly sweet to soften the bitterness inherent to the roasted seed. The hit is very powerful and reminds us that we are on a liquid of character that we will have to tame. 

After a few puffs, the pleasure takes shape totally with a subtle milky note reminiscent of the nutty coffee.

No overly obvious roasting hints here, no more ultra-sweetened effects, we are on a just, realistic and balanced recipe, which pleasantly combines power and gluttony.

Tasting recommendations

  • Recommended power for optimal taste: 24 W
  • Type of steam obtained at this power: Normal
  • Hit type obtained at this power: Powerful
  • Atomizer used for the review: Hadaly
  • Value of the resistance of the atomizer in question: 0.9
  • Materials used with the atomizer: Stainless steel

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting

The fluidity of the liquid makes it compatible with all clearomizers on the market. A tight draw and a rather lukewarm / hot temperature will go wonderfully with it. Not having the vocation to be installed in an atomizer of confirmed or expert vapers, it remains however pleasant in a typical flavor dripper if we are careful not to give it too high a power which would not comply with the purpose of the Gringo.

Recommended Moments

  • Recommended times of the day: Morning, Morning - coffee breakfast, Morning - chocolate breakfast, Lunch / dinner, End of lunch / dinner with a coffee, End of lunch / dinner with a digestif, All afternoon during the activities everyone, Early evening to relax with a drink
  • Can this juice be recommended as an All Day Vape: Yes

Overall average (excluding packaging) of the Vapelier for this juice: 4.59 / 5 4.6 5 out of stars

My mood ticket on this juice

Surprisingly, El Gringo surfs the already well-represented category of liquids for caffeine addicts by imposing a realistic and balanced taste. 

The pleasure is therefore complete and beginners in the vape will find their account in this juice which keeps all its promises. What deserves a Top Juice because it is not only complex liquids to be able to access this privilege. Helping smokers switch to vape is far too important to fail to recognize when a beginner's liquid holds its place like this.
