Comments on the packaging

Already the last evaluation for the Flavor Hit Secret range and believe me I regret it. I would gladly have spent the end of the year gorging myself on these gourmet juices, concocted with care and of high quality.

Today we end with the fruitiness of the siblings, the Secret Garden. Well named because in connection with the magical orchard which gave birth to its flavor. But also because “the secret garden”, it necessarily reminds each of us of something and especially because it is the title of a very beautiful song by Springsteen.

Always offered in 30ml and in 0, 3, 6 or 9mg / ml of nicotine, the Secret Garden does not offend the collection and presents a very clean, informative and unambiguous packaging. I had a very slight problem opening the bottle on my copy, but having already tested the other three, I can assure you that it must have been the “ugly duckling” in the production line.

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 note speaks for itself. We are always on the perfection dear to the Alsatian brand. Everything is clearly displayed, legible and well enhanced by an attractive design.

Prohibition for minors, warning for pregnant women, skull pictogram for my copy in 9mg / ml, triangle in relief for the visually impaired. It's not Baudelaire but rather a Prévert-style inventory. In any case, it is complete, safe and perfectly in line with the vaporously tormented times we are going through.

What to say except bravo?

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

Comments on the packaging

A bottle of black glass carries him, like a night coat, a label also black in color that only a drawing can distinguish. A very nice painting in shades of green, taken here and there on some writings to improve readability while detailing the design.

It's beautiful, simple and very worked at the same time. A packaging which therefore refrains from any negative comments.

Vapelier's note on the sensory experience: 4.38/5 4.4 5 out of stars

Comments on the taste of the juice

Here, exoticism reigns supreme for a fruity moment that sometimes turns into gluttony.

The first fruit that we see, if only by smell but also by taste, is mango. A sweet mango, plump and soft, very realistic that takes the whole mouth. Then, we discern a water fruit that I identify as dragon fruit by its flavor reminding me of watermelon and its slightly milky texture. The blend between the two stars works well and the pitaya adds a welcome thickness and freshness to the mango.

A slightly floral side then emerges and immediately suggests the presence of lychee. It is not obvious but after a few minutes, you start to feel it.

I finally read the composition on the site and I realize the presence of a pineapple. In all honesty, I wouldn't have found it on my own. Knowing it, we feel the presence of a very soft and diffuse pineapple at the end of the mouth.

The recipe is balanced and what strikes the most is the texture of the whole, due to the high level of vegetable glycerin and the presence of pitaya, which gives a “mache” really reminiscent of a creamy aspect that gives a side undeniably gourmet at Secret Garden. This aspect reminds me of the fruity flavors of 12 Monkeys and it's a big compliment.

No doubt, and this will be my only downside, the pineapple would have deserved to be a little more acidic. Or perhaps we could have wished the presence of a more astringent fruit in addition. Indeed, all the fruits being very round, soft and sweet, we cannot escape, despite a saving cloud of freshness, a slight feeling of nausea at the end of a long session of vape. 

On the other hand, for those who love the exotic, the Secret Garden will make a perfect juice of sweetness and tenderness for a fruit moment during the day.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting

A little less versatile than its brothers in the range, the Secret Garden will adapt to a warm temperature, without excess, so as not to unbalance the fruity flavor. Its aromatic power being important, we can vape it at ease in an aerial device without losing the thread of the recipe. However, respect the high level of VG which will de facto disqualify all clearos made to pass less viscous liquids. A good dripper, in simple coil around 1Ω, an open airflow and a respectable power without exaggerating and you will be in the Garden of Eden. And, while you're at it, bring me an apple….

My mood ticket on this juice

Another e-liquid which marks in this Secret range which, now, does not have any more for you.

Fruity and round, it gives pride of place to a mango that a tribe of fruits supports perfectly. If it lacks, perhaps and to my taste, a little pep, it gains a not insignificant gourmet aspect which will appeal to all fruity lovers.

I close this range here with the banana on my face because I must admit that rarely an entire range will have had such an effect on me. Two top juices, one very good and one good, we are well above the average. 

Flavor Hit was able to speak at the time of his birth. The manufacturer should largely surf on success with this truly premium range that has invented magical recipes while keeping the feet on the ground at the level of tariffs! And that, it's worth a serious hat trick!
