Comments on the packaging

Love Is All is a brand from the ADNS galaxy. The famous Ile-de-France wholesaler is making a remarkable entry into the world of e-liquid here with its Mad Maniacs range, developed in partnership with Le Labo Basque in manufacturing, a little gem in the extreme South-West of France. A marriage of reason and passion.

The liquid that is the subject of this review is called Honey Jack and promises us a gourmet mix between tobacco and honey. I'm happy not to be confronted with yet another variation of fresh red fruit, even though I like it. As a general rule, when a brand starts up, it tries it right away so as to get its share of the commercial pie. Here, at least, Love Is All is original by offering a different blend. So it was worth the hat trick for taking the risk!

Honey Jack comes in a 60ml bottle carrying 50ml of overdosed aroma. You must therefore extend it by 10 ml of neutral base or boosters, or possibly a mix of the two, in order to navigate between 0 and 3 mg/ml of nicotine as a result.

The base is entrusted to a PG/VG ratio of 50/50, an excellent compromise if ever there was one, which allows an honorable volume of vapor while expressing all the flavors of an e-liquid.

The vial is sold for 19.90 €, the public price generally observed, and you will find it in all good physical or online shops.

Cowboy bee that can also be found on the label for a very telling design that perfectly evokes the two main elements present in the recipe. It's sober but well done, quite fun and enhanced by a controlled design and a golden metallic background.

The informative notices are clear and everything is there to be reassured about the seriousness of the work!

Comments on the taste of the juice

Honey Jack is no joke and absolutely does not cheat.

We have a blend of blond and dark tobacco, probably Virginia and Burley, which displays an explosive combo. Dry, nervous, but not devoid of nuances, it shows good health with aspects of leather and wood. Rather dark, it descends quite low in the throat with a slightly resinous texture. One could almost believe that it is a macerate.

Very quickly, we notice a dark honey, powerful and not very sweet, which pleasantly colors the recipe while imparting a diaphanous bitterness to it which goes perfectly with the pungency of the tobacco. Sufficiently fragrant to type the liquid but strong enough to stand firm against the rusticity of tobacco. The duel is close but the result is a draw, in the good sense of the term!

The recipe is precise, cut to the line. Here we find the know-how of a flavourist experienced in this type of exercise. The result is reminiscent of the early days of the vape, between Halo Captain Jack in the spirit and other nuggets that have made the oldest vapers happy.

In short, a great success that augurs well for a sequel!

My mood ticket on this juice

Full house for the rookie of the French liquid library! Honey Jack can be vaped at will and will appeal to all those who think that a liquid does not necessarily have to be a sweet syrup and that we can go very far in taste research with two strong elements.

Top Vapelier because a liquid like this feels good in a 2023 vape which has an unfortunate tendency to prevent itself from innovating and using the same winning tricks to exist.
