Comments on the packaging
Having become the property of a star-spangled brand, our V by Black Note flew the Italian flag until then. Il Vaporificio, a specialist in macerated tobacco leaf juices, has left a legacy and various variations that have hardly changed since their creation. We are thus reassured as to the DNA of these very particular potions.
Today's products refer to music since each e-liquid in the range bears the name of a musical genre.
The Vapelier had the chance to obtain the potions by Smooke France, ensuring the distribution on our territory.
The House evaluated by these few lines plays a European register with its 10 ml in a bottle of recycled plastic (PET1) but delivered in a cardboard box to better protect the content.
The PG / VG ratio is set at 50/50 and is based on three nicotine levels, 3, 6 & 9 mg / ml, which are logical for a tobacco flavor.
The tariff is rather reasonable for this type of juice and is established at 5,90 € 10 ml.

Vapelier's note regarding the respect of various conformities (except religious): 4.63 / 5 
Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects
The manufacturing process imposes a slight addition of ultra-pure water. Remember that the safety of the latter is proven and welcome the transparency of a manufacturer indicating on the labeling.
The whole is in total conformity with the legislation in force and each item perfectly informed.
V by Black Note contains no artificial flavors, colors, sweeteners or chemical additives.
E-liquids are made using a natural cold-extraction process designed to slowly extract liquid petrol from tobacco in six to eight weeks.

Vapelier's note regarding packaging with regard to juice category: 5 / 5 
Comments on the packaging
Not having anything fanciful, the visual aspect offered by the House is perfect. Discreet, a little austere, the gray color of its packaging and the label do not stand out.
The whole is serious and well done. As usual on 10 ml, space is lacking.
The cardboard packaging is a plus, it protects the potion and obtains the various information messages on the packaging and avoids having an extending label.

Vapelier's note on the sensory experience: 5/5
Comments on the taste of the juice
Blond, bewitching and spicy, I find here all the characteristics of an excellent tobacco macerate.
Endowed with a beautiful aromatic power and a presence which is no less so, the House is nevertheless very well-bred. Notwithstanding a strong character, it knows how to remain sweet and remains accessible to a public who has not received the codes for decryption of e-liquids obtained from the maceration of tobacco leaves.
From a recipe of which I do not know the exact composition, I seem to feel a blend from which the virginia would be present for the good education and the alliance of a little burley mixed with oriental tobacco for the spicy side.
The assembly is perfectly executed and balanced to obtain a combination very close to perfection. Very close ? Yes, because in front of such a recipe, we always dream of an even more perfect creation. Eternal dissatisfied, go!
Finally, I am a little worried about the description of this elixir. It is difficult to express feelings that leave you speechless.
One thing is certain, it is difficult to make more credible and realistic.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
As usual, a macerate is a fragile and self-respecting juice. No need to take out the heavy artillery and the armada of double-coil atos with large air inlets.
If the MTL vape suits him perfectly, DL in the right conditions has allowed me to feel it in new facets and I would be hard pressed to definitively decide for one or the other inhalation method.
For more realism warm / hot steam devices seem to me more suitable.

My mood ticket on this juice
Breathtakingly realistic, the House of V by Black Note is a macerate of tobacco that manages to reproduce a sensation among the most faithful of those that the vape immediately named: the killer. And it must be recognized that the juices made from macerated tobacco are among those that come closest to it.
A clever and timely blend that I imagine made up of virginia blond combined with a hint of burley and oriental tobacco, the manufacture offers us a distinctive blend, with a strong character but with the education acquired in the best schools.
This taste category is often prized by licensed amateurs - including myself - and confirmed vapers. Nevertheless, a confidential distribution as well as a generally more complex aromatic palette, coupled with an increased fouling of the resistances and a relatively fragile raw material only attest to their particularism. Often, too, we found this category of juice at high prices which did not really contribute to a more consistent distribution.
Many of these arguments are swept aside by Smooke France. The price requested for House and V by Black Note is at the level of a “classic” juice at € 5,90 for 10 ml. I did not notice any exaggerated deposits on the capillaries of my coils. The flavor of this recipe is certainly complex, but it is ideally suited to a spicy blond tobacco that smells of hot sun and sand.
What is missing is an even more extensive distribution network so that the proposal reaches a larger audience. If Le Vapelier can make a modest contribution, it will only be legitimate given the quality of this production, the Top Juice obtained concluding these few lines.
I finally have only one regret, that Smooke France only sent me 20 ml 😉
See you soon for new hazy adventures,
Marquolive.
