Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects

Most of the legal information is there. However, I find the typography concerning the ingredients very difficult to read (or I will really have to buy myself a dog…) the writings seem too small to me, I used my smartphone to be able to read them properly.

Apart from this minor flaw, this product meets all the recommendations in force.

Comments on the taste of the juice

When opening the bottle, we find a rather pleasant smell of vanilla custard. The liquid has a fairly viscous appearance (40/60). On inspiration, it is the flan and vanilla that emerge while the cinnamon comes on the expiration.

The aromatic power of Pasteis de nata is strong, there is a very good balance between the three main aromas (flan, vanilla and cinnamon), we can feel all the ingredients of the Portuguese flan even if, in absolute terms, the vanilla deserves to be slightly more present because I find that the cinnamon comes out a little more than the other flavors at the end of the puff. 

It is a pleasant juice to vape, greedy, sweet and not disgusting. I think it is a liquid that should be enjoyed at low or moderate power at the risk of losing some flavors such as the “fresh” side of the custard which disappears as soon as the vapor becomes hotter.

After exhalation, the flavor of the custard remains in the mouth for a while, I find it pleasant and tasty. What I like most about this juice is its “sweet” side, really well dosed and natural, not at all “chemical”.

Tasting recommendations

  • Recommended power for optimal taste: 25W
  • Type of vapor obtained at this power: Dense
  • Hit type obtained at this power: Light
  • Atomizer used for the review: dripper Narda, Ammit
  • Value of the resistance of the atomizer in question: 0.77Ω
  • Materials used with the atomizer: Kanthal, Cotton

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting

With 26W, the Pasteis de nata delivers all its flavors (fresh, sweet and vanilla) while with a stronger power (40W), its flavors, it seems to me, tend to fade, the taste then becomes less sweet and the flavors of custard and cinnamon stand out the most. I find that a “tight” vape is very suitable for this liquid because when you vape “air”, you lose the intensity of certain flavors (the sweet and vanilla side).

Recommended Moments

  • Recommended times of the day: Morning - coffee breakfast, Morning - chocolate breakfast, Morning - tea breakfast, End of lunch / dinner with a coffee
  • Can this juice be recommended as an All Day Vape: Yes

Overall average (excluding packaging) of the Vapelier for this juice: 4.58 / 5 4.6 5 out of stars

My mood ticket on this juice

Having a Portuguese friend who introduced me to “Pasteis de nata” pastries, what was my surprise to find this delicious viennoiserie in e-liquid!

I must admit that the work done by BIG BANG JUICE is more than remarkable as the flavor of the juice is close to reality even if I personally would have preferred a slight hint of additional vanilla.

In short, it is a very pleasant juice to vape that I really appreciated, quite tasty and sweet, with a coffee I find it excellent.
