Comments on the packaging

The Buccaneer's Juice range of liquids was created in 2014 by the French laboratory C LIQUIDE FRANCE. This range was then completely reviewed by its manufacturer with a higher level of requirement, pushing back the limits of what had been achieved at the time.

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

Comments on the packaging

The least we can say is that a graphic effort has really been made in terms of the illustrations on the labels of the juices in the range. Indeed, these stick perfectly to the names of the liquids as well as to the range from which they come.

Buccaneer's Juice is a range of liquids referring to “buccaneers”, a name given to adventurers in the second half of the XNUMXth century who hunted beef in the West Indies to trade in it. These adventurers then allied themselves with the buccaneers, spreading terror in the Caribbean.

The Kong liquid reminds us of the famous fictional monster King Kong having the appearance of a giant gorilla that originally appeared in 1933 in the film of the same name.

The label has on its front side a relatively well done cartoon-like illustration representing the great primate. We find above the name of the range, below are the various pictograms with also the composition of the juice and the coordinates of the laboratory, the name of the liquid is written vertically on the side.

The data relating to the precautions for use and storage appear on the back of the bottle and are indicated there in several languages.

All the various information is perfectly clear and readable, the packaging is pleasant and very well done.

Comments on the taste of the juice

Liquid Kong is a gourmet-type juice with the flavors of thick gourmet milk chocolate dessert cream.

When the bottle is opened, the gourmet flavors of chocolate are perfectly well felt, we also perceive the pastry notes of the gourmet cream, the smell is quite sweet and light.

In terms of taste, the flavors making up the recipe all have good aromatic power, the chocolate is well transcribed and has a striking taste result. We have the impression of having freshly grated chocolate in the mouth, it is slightly sweet and very soft.
The gourmet cream reinforces the sweet and unctuous notes of the composition, it is soft and accompanies the chocolate brilliantly.

The greedy aspect of the liquid is very real, the softness of the liquid allows it not to be disgusting in the long run.

  • Type of steam obtained at this power: Normal (type T2)
  • Hit type obtained at this power: Light
  • Atomizer used for the review: Flave Evo 24
  • Value of the resistance of the atomizer in question: 0.35Ω
  • Materials used with the atomizer: Nichrome, Cotton

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting

The Kong juice tasting was carried out by adding 10ml of nicotine booster to obtain a rate of 3mg/ml, the cotton used is Holy Fiber from HOLY JUICE LAB, the power set to 38W for a rather “lukewarm” vapor.

With this configuration of vape, the inspiration is relatively soft, the passage in the throat and the hit obtained are quite light, we already feel subtle chocolate notes in the mouth.

When exhaling, the flavors of milk chocolate are expressed first, a kind of relatively soft and slightly sweet hot chocolate with pleasant chocolate notes. These flavors are then preceded by those softer and smoother but also much sweeter from the dessert cream which delicately encompasses the chocolate.

At the end of the expiration, the chocolate notes seem to come back in force, leaving a little taste of chocolate in the mouth for a short time at the end of the tasting, this “final” touch is really pleasant.

The liquid can be perfectly suitable for any type of material, I nevertheless preferred a limited type draw in order to maximize all the taste nuances because of its real sweetness.

My mood ticket on this juice

The Kong liquid offered by the C LIQUIDE FRANCE brand is a gourmet type juice whose flavors that make up the recipe all have good aromatic power. Indeed, they are perfectly well felt during the tasting.

The flavors of the chocolate are well transcribed in taste, a relatively soft and unsweetened milk chocolate whose chocolate notes last a short time in the mouth, at the end of the tasting.

The flavors of the cream are quite light and much sweeter than those of chocolate, they go perfectly well with the chocolate flavors and thus reinforce the gourmet notes of the composition thanks in particular to their unctuous notes.

The Kong liquid displays a score of 4,59 within the Vapelier, it obtains its "Top Juice" thanks on the one hand to the faithful taste rendering of the flavors composing it and on the other hand to its relative softness and lightness which make it a pleasure to vape, without moderation!
