Comments on the packaging

Vape Cellar is a Luxembourg brand that has made a specialty of combining tobacco in all these variations. Coming from the world of oenology, the creator was on familiar ground in aromatic treatment and was able to develop two essential ranges, fine and varied blends to satisfy connoisseurs of Nicot grass and to offer a healthy alternative to smoking.

The two ranges are called “Spirit Of Absolu” and “L'Absolu” from which our e-liquid of the day, Red Skin, is made. 

Meeting a growing success and surfing on the return to favor of tobacco as an aroma among vapers, the brand's e-liquids can easily be recommended to first-time vapers because the balance between propylene glycol and vegetable glycerin of 60/40 may well suit them. Likewise, the availability of nicotine levels in 0, 3, 6, 11 and 16 mg / ml will allow everyone to choose according to their case.

The price of 19.90 € places the Red Skin in the mid-range and seems suitable for a premium brand positioned at the crossroads of craftsmanship and industry. We are going to find out together if the game is worth the candle.

Vapelier's note regarding the respect of various conformities (except religious): 5 / 5 5 5 out of stars

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects

The figures imposed by the legislator are all covered, whether on the label of the vials or on the cardboard packaging containing the three vials. There is also the famous notice that will enlighten vapers on the many dangers of vaping but not enough, in my opinion, on the many positive points that make vaping a technology that saves people's lives.

The only downside to the formal and factual perfection of the information is the PG / VG ratio (60/40). It is not serious in itself but very useful however for the consovapor who could thus know if his atomizer is well calibrated to accept the viscosity of Red Skin. In this case, given the fluidity of the juice, it is not penalizing but a 100% VG juice not indicating it on its label would cause a lot of problems for a primovapoteur armed with an MTL clearo. It does not cost much to add this information and it allows everyone to find their young.

  • The packaging effort made is in accordance with the price category: Yes

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

Comments on the packaging

On the cardboard package with the three vials, we find the obscure cellar of Vape Cellar on an elegant and discreet black background. In the center is the profile face of a stylized Sioux chief. 

On the flask itself, we find the same face on a black background, surrounded by the name of the product in beige and the brand logos and the motto “Grand Cru d'arôme” dear to the brand in burgundy. It's chic and simple at the same time, perfectly done, here we recognize the “tobacco” direction without the possibility of making a mistake. 

A packaging in perfect harmony with the e-liquid.

Vapelier's note on the sensory experience: 5/5 5 5 out of stars

Comments on the taste of the juice

The key word here is gentleness. And even a haven of sweetness. The responsibility lies with a work of rare balance made on the tobacco base of Red Skin. We find here a very ripe Virginian blond and therefore finely sweetened by a longer sun exposure and a flue-cured drying. But the blend also offers us a darker and smokier component reminiscent of Cypriot Latakia. 

If the blend is very elegant, it sometimes reveals subtle woody notes, leather or a little oily resin which enrich the tasting. This tobacco is not simple, on the contrary it is complex and of character, between sugar and controlled harshness. A real bet that nevertheless puts everyone in agreement once in the mouth.

A vanilla note, persistent and nevertheless light, comes to cap it all while making the tobacco more greedy without distorting or caricaturing it. Red Skin is, thank God, a real tobacco juice, one of those who quickly become allday, which will easily reconcile those who have left the tobacco world to other more greedy spheres, those who have never left and who will find here a real tobacco juice perfectly assembled and all primovapoteur which will undoubtedly meet a first e-liquid which will remind him of the cigarette with a slightly greedy aspect in addition. 

A plus for the length in the mouth, quite marked, which ends a pleasant tasting and a stunning appreciation of the balance of Red Skin.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting

Red Skin is easily revealed, even at low power, proof of a liquid that does not need artifices to express itself. Perfectly at ease in a good dripper, it will also have its place in any atomizer, rebuildable or not, in MTL or in restricted DL, on condition of opting for a material typed flavors. 

It can be vaped at will, at any time of the day and is easily imposed as an allday as its balance and its modesty in sugar make it easy to vape, over a good coffee, glass in hand or even in the rush of action to make Bogart 2.0.

My mood ticket on this juice

I have rarely been confronted with such a versatile e-liquid, allowing both to satisfy any addicted to the dive plant or any amateur intrigued by the rendering of this aroma in vape.

The Red Skin is an e-liquid of rare elegance. It shows a perceived simplicity which is only the tip of the iceberg. Behind the scenes, the work of goldsmith that had to be deployed to achieve such perfection of assembly had to be repeatedly put back on the workbench to obtain this impeccable result.

Do not hesitate to try it in depth, over a couple of days, to uncover all the mysteries that appear little by little like the boxes of an advent calendar. At the end, there will undoubtedly be the meeting of your future Grail. 

Top circumstance juice for a Top juice!
