Comments on the packaging

This evening we are starting the last lap on the Franco-Lithuanian brand Big Mouth. A new brand, which has yet to find its marks in an increasingly complex market, but which presents great successes alongside certain unpleasant “colored” surprises which we have already mentioned.

Like the rest of the range, the packaging is completely in line with what can be expected in this price range. Transparent glass bottle, glass pipette thin enough to facilitate your refills and all the battery of information dedicated to consumption.

A product quite honorable.

Vapelier's note regarding the respect of various conformities (except religious): 4.5 / 5 4.5 5 out of stars

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects

In the oh so crucial chapter of security at a time when vaping will return to turmoil, it is successes of this kind that will make the difference. Indeed, not only the product is perfectly compliant with the legislation but we also have the presence of a DLUO and a batch number which complete the whole.

In addition, the detail in the nomenclature of ingredients is very thorough. Thus, we learn that propylene glycol is of vegetable origin, that the flavors are natural and that the nicotine chosen is L-Nicotine, therefore not synthetic. Pleasing clarity. We slip by the absence of the mention of the production laboratory which is counterbalanced by a transparency without reproach.

We also note, with great pleasure, the absence of any coloring additive which should, in my opinion, be the rule in the development of an e-liquid. I hope you will allow me this subjectivity. 

Appreciation of the packaging

  • Does the graphic design of the label and the product name agree ?: Yes
  • Global correspondence of the packaging with the product name: Yes
  • The packaging effort made is in accordance with the price category: Yes

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

Comments on the packaging

The packaging is common to the entire range. Thus, on a generally standard bottle, a label is installed, graphically very pop, which is available along each reference using a different color code each time. We appreciate the presence of the wide open mouth, very “Rolling Stones” in the graphics which is the recurring element and therefore fixator of attention for the brand's products.

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

Comments on the taste of the juice

Here is an e-liquid that does not joke and whose name is pretty good taste.

It is therefore a fresh and minty liquid like some great references of the genre such as Sub Zero and others. The freshness is vigorous, it creates the sensation of an intense hit but does not mask the minty subtleties. We have a spearmint that is quite herbal in its flavor and interesting which doubles as a peppermint which pleasantly stings the nostrils. Then, a good dose of menthol creates the effect of fresh specific to this element, namely a strong coldness but which remains in the mouth, without going down in the throat.

However, there is also a “warmer” element there which could well be a base of blond and woody tobacco. Attention, this is only a personal appreciation but I feel this specific slight bitterness which types the liquid and gives it additional interest.

Mint lovers will appreciate that Icy Kiss is not sweet and thus retains all the natural aspect of its aromas. A good e-liquid in the category that can be confronted without shame with the tenors of the genre.

Tasting recommendations

  • Atomizer used for the review: Igo-L, Cyclone AFC
  • Value of the resistance of the atomizer in question: 0.9
  • Materials used with the atomizer: Stainless steel, Cotton

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting

To be enjoyed in an atomizer capable of delivering a warm / cold temperature, rather airy. My advice: do not hesitate to take the nicotine dosage lower than what you are used to because the hit, pulsed by menthol, is strong. The viscosity of the liquid makes it compatible with all possible devices but disqualifies it a little for the practice of power-vaping. You can try fairly substantial powers but keeping in mind to adjust the ventilation so that the temperature does not rise too much.

My mood ticket on this juice

A real good fresh and minty juice. The brand's latest Big Mouth leaves a good impression on us. Minty but more subtle than it looks, it reveals itself after a few sessions of vape and then becomes a pleasant companion as long as we appreciate this category of juice by being a little less “stiff” than the others and more complex.

All in all, a nice taste and safety success for a brand that has everything to count in the vape of tomorrow as soon as it understands that in terms of dyes, the best is often the enemy of the good.
