Comments on the packaging

It is under the brand name CirKus that the VDLV brand declines a small series of 3 gourmet tobaccos, the Classic Wanted range. To convince myself of the seriousness of the company and the manufacturing quality of e-liquids, I recommend a visit to the reference site, here.

Among other things, it is learned that the base used is of pharmaceutical quality, of plant origin (without GMO), and that the flavors are free of elements harmful to inhalation (paraben, ambrox, diacetyl), that the juices contain no additive, coloring, added sugar or alcohol, even if they contain ultra pure water (milli-Q process) in small quantity, which is not the case of the juice tested here.

Packaged in a 10ml glass bottle, Gourmet is offered in a 50/50 PG / VG base, at 0, 3, 6 or 12 mg / ml of nicotine. As we will see later, these bottles are TPD ready and the contents are certified by an AFNOR standard, guaranteeing their composition, which is itself regularly checked.

Gourmet is therefore a gourmet tobacco, on a base of blond leaf, an option little represented until now by the Gironde company, which had not declined this “classic” genre for a few years.

Classic Wanted will now be a reference series at CirKus for this taste option, hoping that it will expand in the next few months.

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

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects

The packaging, like the care taken to the juice, is fully compliant with the regulations in force at 1er January 2017. The equipment (pipette, ring of first opening and child safety) are not lacking and the two-part labeling contains all the mandatory information and some others too, such as a DLUO, the diameter of the tip of the pipette, a n ° lot.

In this context it is useless to discuss further, the score obtained is enough to convince you of the rigor shown by the team at VDLV, to offer a product of great quality in all its aspects.

Appreciation of the packaging

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

Comments on the packaging

This package, although irreproachable in the formula, is not anti-UV, however, you will need to preserve yourself the content of sunlight. The general aesthetics of the label is common to the three juices of the range, only the name changes. It appears that the graphics used for the most useful indications are legible, I will not judge the pleasure work which seems to me secondary but respectful of legal provisions recently introduced, which impose a marketing sobriety, close to the neutral package, in a other area.

The tariff position of the beginning of mid-range and the proposed packaging, are in my opinion, coherent.

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

Comments on the taste of the juice

It is the smell of the macaron (of course St-Emilion), which emanates from the cold vial, the pastry is preponderant in this assembly, a pleasant fragrance of which I do not detect that of tobacco, but a vanilla note.

To taste it is also obvious, it is a biscuit embellished with a frank vanilla and a taste reminiscent of that, more full-bodied, a fairly light blond tobacco. The juice is sweet without excess, greed is more present than tobacco.

It is in the vaping that the latter takes its measure, it is actually equal power of the biscuit, the juice has original notes, if we avoided the pastry part we could think vaper a tobacco very fragrant as some blends for the pipe.

It is a greedy tobacco without a doubt, balanced and sweet, it corresponds perfectly to the idea that I make allday. At the end of the mouth is the Nicot leaf, despite a pleasant vanilla, which lasts a little while.

The hit at 6mg / ml is very light, for normal steam production.

Tasting recommendations

  • Recommended power for optimal taste: 12 W
  • Type of steam obtained at this power: Normal (type T2)
  • Type of hit obtained at this power: Light
  • Atomizer used for the review: mini RDA (Smok)
  • Value of the resistance of the atomizer in question: 1.55
  • Materials used with the atomizer: Kanthal, Fiber Freaks Cotton Blend

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting

10ml obliges, I tested this juice in a relic pierced at 2,5mm: the RDA mini from Smok! (a test on the Maze in DC at 0,26 ohm and 55W scared me a little, it was quickly necessary to slow down consumption but it was very good!) 

In single coil and 1,55 ohm to stay on a tasting vape.

11W to start and up to 20W to finish. In fact, if this Gourmet supports a moderate heat, it will wither with the brutal heating. This is the pastry, so the greedy component of the juice, which will fade for a less tasty effect than reasonable power values ​​(11 to 13W).

Without really comparing this montage and this ato to a clearomizer (today) I think nevertheless have an honest idea of ​​what it could give.

This juice is not strong and can be vaped lukewarm, so it is not useful to open the airflows, as this will dilute it. Opt for a dedicated flavor ato without necessarily going below 0,5 ohm even in double coil, your heating power will easily rise to 20/25% more than the "normal" value, beyond that, it is preferable to favor the tobacco flavor because the result will be much closer.

Its natural yellow color and its fluidity for any type of atomizer, it does not quickly foul resistance.

Recommended Moments

  • Recommended times of the day: Morning, Morning - coffee breakfast, Morning - chocolate breakfast, Morning - tea breakfast, End of lunch / dinner with a coffee, End of lunch / dinner with a digestif, All afternoon during everyone's activities, Early evening to relax with a drink, Late evening with or without herbal tea, The night for insomniacs
  • Can this juice be recommended as an All Day Vape: Yes

Overall average (excluding packaging) of the Vapelier for this juice: 4.58 / 5 4.6 5 out of stars

My mood ticket on this juice

"At the third beat of the waltz" I stay in phase. This last Classic Wanted pleasantly seduced me. If I did not immediately perceive the tobacco (with the nose), you will have noticed that I quickly changed my mind, it is indeed a greedy tobacco, the description of the creators could not be more respected.

It goes without saying that such a juice, as well finished and dosed, deserves a distinction, especially since, if it had existed at the time of my weaning, I believe that I would still vape.

Because the purpose of the vape is there, dear readers, this invention will allow you to quit, and if you want to keep familiar flavors, it is without context on this kind of juice that you need to steer.

It is not the most expensive, you can appreciate it without consuming too much, do not hesitate to force the line on the rate of nicotine, with the volume of the vial, it is indeed the other factor of frustration, it may be missing a 16 or 18mg / ml to assert the panoply and suit everyone for the purpose.

Excellent vape to you, thank you for reading me.

See you soon.
