  • Value of the resistance of the atomizer in question: 0.75

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting

The tasting of the “Red Fruits” liquid was carried out with two configurations of vape, one with the MD RTA atomizer from Hellvape and another with the Flave Evo 24 dripper from AllianceTech Vapor, the resistance used is a superfine MTL Fused coil Clapton Coil from Wandy Vape with a value of 0.70 Ω but displayed at 0.75 Ω after breaking in, the cotton used is Holy Fiber from HOLY JUICE LAB.

With these configurations of vape, the inspiration is rather soft, the passage in the throat and the hit are certainly average due to the high rate of PG of the recipe and the 3mg / ml of nicotine rate.

On expiration, the average hit obtained on inspiration seems to increase somewhat, the vapor obtained is light, the flavors of the mixture of red fruits appear, these flavors appear juicy and slightly acidulous but also with “chemical” notes. ”Which are not unpleasant, the flavors are also slightly sweet.

The liquid is quite soft and light, it is not disgusting.

Be careful with the material used, the great fluidity of the juice can easily cause leaks in the airflows and even sometimes “gurgling” when tasting on an atomizer, I had to redo my cotton twice on the MD RTA, good d 'Ok the error can only be human but I think that this juice is not intended for any type of material, rather prefer a good dripper or MTL-dominant atomizer with a tight draw to appreciate all the flavors without disappointments.

Recommended Moments

  • Recommended times of the day: Morning, Aperitif, All afternoon during everyone's activities, Early evening to relax with a drink, End of the evening with or without herbal tea, The night for insomniacs
  • Can this juice be recommended as an All Day Vape: Yes

Overall average (excluding packaging) of the Vapelier for this juice: 4.17 / 5 4.2 5 out of stars

My mood ticket on this juice

The Red Fruits liquid offered by the e-CG brand is a fruity-type juice intended primarily for “first-time vapers” or MTL enthusiasts.

The liquid has a fairly good aromatic power. It is advertised with red fruit flavors and it must be recognized that red fruits are present in the composition of the recipe. We are here with a taste sensation of a mixture of juicy and slightly acidulous fruits with not unpleasant chemical notes, the liquid is also slightly sweet, the juice is rather soft and light and its tasting is not disgusting.

However, it will be necessary to be vigilant as to the material used, indeed the liquid is quite fluid (75 of PG) it will not be suitable for all types of equipment, it is a rather MTL oriented liquid with a tight draw, this configuration will allow Appreciate it at its true value, it will also be necessary to cotton the atomizer well in order to avoid possible leaks or then ideally use a pod.

The e-CG brand is therefore fulfilling its contract with a juice whose flavors felt correspond well to its description.
