Vapelier's note on the sensory experience: 5/5
Comments on the taste of the juice
It's fruity and slightly fresh with a hint of almond at the end of inhalation. The exotic type fruits appear ripe and juicy. According to my palate I felt mango (which undoubtedly brings the fresh side), pineapple and guava.
The mixture is perfectly homogeneous and flawless. The almond cuts short the possible acidity of the pineapple with its sweetness. It's really light and not disgusting, and it's French !!

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
For the test I used the Toptank mini on the reconstructable part with a resistance of 0,8 Ω for a power of 20 W. It is at this power that the liquid gave me the best of itself.
Below, I couldn't get all the flavors at the same time, and above, the flavors were totally lost. Its hit knows how to be felt, for 6mg it is very present.
Not being fatty or sweet, this juice does not clog the resistances at lightning speed. The most pleasant on the palate, provided by the mixture of fruits. The liquid is suitable for any type of clearomizer except TFV8, Cleito or other clearomizers where the liquid arrivals are impressive. With these atos there is a real risk of leakage and the flavors will not be well restored, because they have to be pushed high in W.

My mood ticket on this juice
Well, there you go, end of the test. This range seems promising, as for all there will be good and less good ^^. Because of being able to choose the PG / VG ratio, it is ideal because CE4, CE5S or T2 type clearomizers are more intended for liquids containing a lot of PG.
The PG brings out the flavors and the hit much better but really dries up the mucous membranes, so remember to hydrate yourself well. The VG itself brings a softer and sweeter side with a reduced hit, since it is thick, it will clog the coils more quickly and will only be intended for suitable clearomizers (with an RBA plate for example).
To taste, this liquid reminds me of a famous alcohol-free cocktail represented by a magnificent Macaw parrot, a good cocktail to vape.
Good vape, Fredo
