Comments on the packaging
Ruska: in Finnish, the precise moment in autumn when the leaves turn red.
It is therefore to an autumnal liquid that Le Vaporium invites us today, while the heat wave presses like a lid at the beginning of summer in the world of tomorrow. Liquids from the Bordeaux factory are not made to be fashionable or seasonal but are created to last longer than the rose that has lived what roses live, the space of a morning.
The Ruska is part of the latest salvo to date which contains seven and whose leitmotif is the borrowing of an expression specific to a country, a language or an ethnic group. A range without being one that sounds like an apotheotic bouquet for the brand as the level, already substantial, seems to have taken another step forward.
Presented in a 60 ml bottle, the liquid is made from a 100% vegetable base in 40/60 PG/VG, to make an already safe practice even healthier and more sustainable. It will suffice to add 20 ml of boosters and/or neutral base to obtain the 80 ml recommended by the manufacturer. You will thus be able to obtain all the possible levels between 0 and 6 mg / ml of nicotine approximately according to your choice.
The price is 24.00 € for the 60 ml but you can also find a 30 ml version for 12.00 €. Very correct prices, don't forget that we are dealing here with real premium and 60 ml instead of the 50 commonly practiced.
The Vaporium has accustomed us to high-end liquids and innovative and incessant taste research. Will this still be the case today with the Ruska? In any case, the heritage is rich but perhaps also heavy to bear.

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects
We can be inventive and yet in the nails of the regulations, the brand gives us a good proof of it here.
It warns us of the presence of cinnamaldehyde and furaneol, two aromatic compounds of natural origin. To be noted only if you are one of the rare people allergic to these products.

Comments on the packaging
The traditional bottle dear to the brand is adorned with green, yellow and bronze colors to better illustrate the autumn that the liquid announces. The rest is typical of the usual visual, sober and alchemical. List of aromas, name of the liquid, frieze evoking nature.
A slight defect on this opus: a certain difficulty in reading the textual indications because of the choice of an orange font on a green background. Nothing serious, it does not taste! 😁

Comments on the taste of the juice
It is therefore to taste a gourmet tobacco that the manufacturer invites us. Gourmet and complex. Very tasty and very complex.
It is first of all a very rich and rather sweet blend of cavendish or Scottish blend tobacco. We feel pronounced notes of vanilla, honey and spices.
It is also a festival of very present fruity compotes which give a playful dimension to the liquid and start to make the analysis machine gamberger.
Finally, it is cinnamon by touches that serve as a common thread between the different elements.
We therefore obtain a pipe tobacco very rich in taste, of the Clan or Amsterdamer type, which alternately evokes gingerbread and old boy's jam.
Let's be clear, the assembly will not appeal to everyone. But those who love it will swear by it. As usual, the recipe is diabolical, very balanced and does not lend itself to any criticism. It's rich, complex and takes more than a single puff to unravel.
To surprise, at a time of standardization of tastes, isn't that already an act of resistance?

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
The Ruska will be vaped in MTL, RDL or DL, indifferently. When a liquid is well made, it is particularly flexible in use. Just be sure to keep it at a certain warm / hot temperature in order to serve the tobacco as it should.
I do not recommend it for an all-day liquid. It is more made for very personal moments of pleasure. In this hot period, installed on a deckchair around midnight, in the cool, contemplating the moon with a coffee, it is unforgettable.

My mood ticket on this juice
For once, I will insist on one point: this liquid will not concern everyone. He is special. Rich, greedy, very complex, it can unseat less receptive palates. I must admit I had a little trouble at first but perseverance paid off and the contours are revealed, the blurs become clearer as the vaping sessions progress.
I hesitated to put a Top Juice on it. Too “different”, too “marginal”, too “uncommercial”. Then, I remembered that the vape was not only a nicotine substitute but also a new way of apprehending the taste. It is this type of pleasure that will be able to bring a large number of smokers to quit smoking because no, pleasure is not a taboo, even when curing.
Its complexity reminds us of that of our gastronomy, our literature, our culture. It therefore becomes an act of faith, between tradition and a vision of the future, if only to better transcend our personal limits.
Therefore, to be reserved for insiders, aesthetes and gourmets. Top Jus for questioning what we take for granted.
