Comments on the packaging
Basque is a liquid developed by TeVap that is part of the range typed tobacco and this juice is no exception. A product packaged in a transparent bottle of 10ml, which despite all is common to many productions of this type.
Based on proportions of propylene glycol and vegetable glycerin at 50% each, the flavor / vapor balance is perfectly respected and for this test my bottle is at 6mg / ml of nicotine. However, the range offered by TeVap for the dosage of nicotine is sufficient with several dosages from 0: 6, 12 and 16mg / ml.
The cap has a seal which certifies that it has never been opened and as soon as the opening is discovered a thin tip, very convenient for pouring the liquid in an atomizer tank, or directly on the assembled assembly, associated with a bottle flexible enough to exert a moderate pressure and a precise payment.

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects
Labeling is presented on two levels. A first part is visible on the bottle, with a second part which requires lifting the first in order to reveal all the inscriptions. In general, we find all the useful information on the surface label, such as the composition, various warnings, the nicotine level, the percentage PG / VG, the capacity as well as the name of the product and its manufacturer.
The BBD with the lot number are written under the bottle, but these inscriptions are fragile and may easily fade.
The other part that is necessary to take off (unrollable repositionable), is a leaflet providing details on the handling of the product, its storage, warnings and the risk of side effects. We also have the name of the laboratory with the contact details and the customer service reachable by phone or email if necessary.
The cap is perfect and this is an important point for the safety of children and the assurance of good protection, as for other regulatory aspects, All pictograms are present. Very large in a white diamond bordered in red, we have that of dangerousness with its widely recognizable exclamation point, essential by the presence of nicotine (at 6 mg / ml on this test). In the vicinity there are three other icons, the one intended for the prohibition of wind for minors and not recommended for pregnant women, as well as the sign for recycling. On the bottle is affixed a large triangle in relief for the visually impaired (present in duplicate).

Vapelier's note regarding packaging with regard to juice category: 4.17 / 5 
Comments on the packaging
The bottle does not have a box, TeVap offers us a sober and elegant visual in brown and blond tones. In the foreground the logo of the brand with the name "Terroir and Steam", followed by the name of the liquid "The Basque" and the nicotine level, on a third of the bottle. A second third is reserved for pictograms and composition, while the third, in a black rectangle on a white background, you will find precautionary measures.
Nothing exceptional about this packaging which, given its price range, could have benefited from an effort to distinguish itself a little from other products of this type. Nevertheless, the double label is a judicious system, not only to provide all the information, but above all to keep the format of the inscriptions sufficiently legible without the need for a magnifying glass. However, devoid of drawing, photos or image, the graphics seem quite simple to me given its price range. The background of the label has a burlap look in a brown-beige color reminiscent of the hue of tobacco.
Under the visible part to be lifted, there is only a notice with inscriptions aimed at informing you about this product that is important to take into consideration as well as the contact details of a customer service, if necessary.

Vapelier's note on the sensory experience: 5/5
Comments on the taste of the juice
For the smell we perceive the scent of a rustic tobacco which reminds me of a dark tobacco
For the taste it is even more explicit. Former brunettes smokers will find this brown tobacco flavor halfway between Gauloise and Gitane.
This Tobacco is rather dry and powerful, but slightly more rounded than the authentic flavors. The aromas are muscular and the dark shade on the palate is very dominant. Although this liquid is frank and strong in the mouth, it does not scratch the throat, it remains quite consistent and makes the most of the space to give an impression of consistency.
The whole is well done to offer an authentic brown tobacco flavor that makes you nostalgic. A taste that remains a little in the mouth without leaving bad breath, and there is everything to win!

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
The Basque is a brown tobacco very pleasant to vape and offers the possibility to increase power on an atomizer. Taste does not vary much in heating, but the strength of the aroma is accentuated, as the volume of steam, however it is excellent.
For a 6mg / ml the hit seems to me to correspond to the announced rate. Regarding the vapor, it is in an average density which is typically that of a liquid in 50/50 PG / VG, it will gain momentum in sub-ohm.

My mood ticket on this juice
Unlike the real dark tobacco that I once smoked, this Basque does not irritate the throat but retains the power in its flavor while being more rounded in the mouth. I think we can speak of imitation of taste, because the sensation and the pleasure are the same. Obviously the term is not pejorative because this liquid is a very beautiful composition made of natural aromas of tobacco leaves, which brings without context a real nostalgia as the restored taste is almost consistent with the mixture of two major national brands of brown cigarettes .
Expressive and robust, the Basque is generous and admirable, which is why, despite its fairly common packaging without any originality, even if it is in a higher price range than a similar product, its production deserves a Top Juice.
The security, legal and health aspects are particularly well respected and the double labeling allows the readability of its information, easier and more practical.
