Comments on the packaging
Taffe-elec is bringing back its Strawberry to the delight of fruit lovers.
Strawberry is a very delicate aroma to handle in the vape. Many liquids have tried to bring the king of red fruits to life in vapor and ultimately quite few have found favor with the taste buds of foodies. The fault is a sort of curse. Wedged between the Tagada strawberry and the realistic fruit, the aroma sometimes misses its subject.
However, the strawberry is an essential figure in any self-respecting juice collection. Today, it is still one of the flavors that vapers of all levels seek out as a priority. It was therefore normal to find Strawberry in the catalog of liquids designed and manufactured by Taffe-elec. And, to be sure to find it easily, they gave it the name of the fruit. It's simple and evocative.
Like many references in the catalog, the Strawberry exists in two versions. The first in 50 ml in a 70 ml bottle allowing the addition of 10 or 20 ml of booster in order to reach a level of 3 mg/ml or a level of 6 mg/ml. This format sells for €9.90 and I can never emphasize enough the friendly aspect of this price which is half as much as the average price in the category.
The second version displays a 10 ml format and is available in four nicotine levels: 0, 3, 6 and 11 mg/ml. It will cost you €3.90, approximately €2 less than the competition.
In both cases, the assembly is done on a 50/50 PG/VG base, ideal for the fruity purpose of the potion and perfectly compatible with all vaping devices.
So, candy strawberry? Mara of the Woods? Gariguette? Charlotte? It's time to take out an atomizer for a thorough analysis.

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects
Once again, we can only see the seriousness of the manufacturer when it approaches the chapter of safety. Everything is there and in good working order. Pictograms, warnings, after-sales service, everything!
We also appreciate the transparency, Taffe-elec warns us of the presence of alcohol in the composition of the liquid, which is neither alarming nor rare. On the other hand, you will not find sucralose in the mix, the manufacturer having banned this molecule in its recipes.

Comments on the packaging
It is a soft pink, perfectly evocative of the fruit in question, which surrounds the bottle. Above, some symbolic strawberries stand out, drawn as if by a child's hand. The aesthetic is at the same time sober and reassuring. A pretty packaging that we undoubtedly owe to an inspired designer.

Comments on the taste of the juice
The promised fruit is there from the first seconds of the puff. So we have a slightly fuzzy strawberry, between candy strawberry and fruit strawberry. The sweet part is present, an ounce of acidity is missing to find the realism that one could expect. It's quite good, soft on the palate, but the result is more like a strawberry syrup with water than fruit.
From then on, there are two schools. Those who expected fruit realism will undoubtedly be disappointed. Those who prefer the gourmet, sweet side will be in heaven.
The manufacturer has chosen to add a refreshing agent to its elixir. The result is therefore fresh, without excess or excess. But there seems to me to be a lack of balance between the aromas constituting strawberry and cold. Let me explain: this range has often surprised us with its precision. Here, this is not the case. The freshness takes precedence over the strawberry and this harms the perception of the aroma which gives the liquid its name.
In no case is Strawberry unpleasant to vape. On the contrary. its softness and freshness are strong arguments. On the other hand, we will be closer to a granita with syrup than to a fresh fruit cocktail. You just need to know it.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
The Taffe-elec Strawberry will be at ease anywhere. I recommend vaping the liquid at medium temperature, without unnecessary extra power. Too strong, the fresh will definitely take pole position. A light MTL/RDL print also seems desirable to me to best reproduce the nuances of the liquid.
Excellent on its own on hot afternoons, it is very convincing in combination with orange juice, vanilla ice cream or lemonade.

Overall average (excluding packaging) of the Vapelier for this juice: 4.17 / 5 
My mood ticket on this juice
If the Strawberry objectively holds its place and fully fulfills its role as a recreational juice, we may be led to regret a certain lack of realism or precision that the range had accustomed us to expect. The curse of the strawberry has not struck but it still remains in our minds.
Beyond its mystical considerations, I urge you above all to form your own opinion, especially at this price. I am convinced that this liquid will appeal to lovers of sweet, fresh fruit.
