Comments on the taste of the juice
Morning Wood Liquid is a classic / gourmet type juice with flavors of blond tobacco, with notes of vanilla, nuts, mocha and coconut. When opening the bottle, the predominant smell is that of blond tobacco, the scents are quite strong.
At the taste level, the liquid is soft, the aromatic power of blond tobacco is present, this aroma seems to occupy a major part in the recipe of the composition, we also distinguish the coffee notes brought by the flavors of mocha, they get married perfectly with the flavors of tobacco.
Regarding the flavors of nuts, they are difficult to perceive because they are certainly “crushed” by the aromatic powers of tobacco and mocha.
Nevertheless, we still perceive some nut flavors. The aromas of vanilla are very slightly perceived at the end of the vape, this subtle touch of vanilla is very pleasant, we can also guess some notes of coconut mixed with vanilla.
The liquid is not disgusting.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
For the Morning Wood tasting, I chose a power of 28W so as not to have too “hot” steam and to prevent the tobacco flavors, which are already quite powerful, from being too “present”. With this configuration of vape, the inspiration is quite soft, the passage in the throat and the hit are light.
On exhalation, the vapor obtained is quite dense, the flavors of tobacco are immediately felt, blond tobacco strong in taste but relatively sweet. Then immediately come the flavors of the mocha, also very sweet, which harmonize perfectly.
Regarding the flavors of nuts, it is quite complicated to define, we can guess them but they are too weak and seem to be stifled by the strong aromatic power of tobacco and mocha, only the flavors of nuts seem to stand out. Game.
Then, at the end of the expiration, we guess the subtle notes of vanilla and coconut which come to close the tasting, it is very pleasant in the mouth. The tasting is sweet and not disgusting.

My mood ticket on this juice
The Morning Wood liquid offered by Ekoms is a classic / gourmet type of juice whose recipe is quite rich and complex. Indeed, the composition contains several flavors that are more or less perceived.
The flavors of tobacco and mocha occupy, by their aromatic power, a large part in the composition, those of the nuts are rather hardly perceptible except some touches of nuts. As for the flavors of vanilla and coconut, they are subtly felt, especially at the end of the vape.
The tasting is pleasant, sweet and pleasant, a good liquid for coffee breaks whose recipe is rediscovered over time.
