Vapelier's note regarding the respect of various conformities (except religious): 4.63 / 5 4.6 5 out of stars

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects

The labeling is not complete and it is a shame given the space available.
We will note, among other things, the absence of pictograms and the words: "Not recommended for pregnant women" and "Forbidden -18". Information made very soon mandatory by the TPD, in the symbolic and scriptural forms.

The presence of the relief pictogram for the visually impaired and a DLUO as well as a lot number in addition to the coordinates of the lab are indicated.
The manufacturer also tells us that these juices contain no ambrox, paraben, diacetyl, sugar or coloring, which shows the desire to do well. So let us be convinced that these purely informative deficiencies will be corrected during the next production which will certainly and unfortunately, TPD oblige, the impasse on this volume of capacity, to the “profit” of the only 10ml.

Comments on the packaging

The packaging is nice and corresponds well to this range Tea Time.
The Sweet-Koï, like the other references, is distinguished by a different color of the labels but also by a pipette cap matching it. It's simple, well thought out and original.

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

Comments on the taste of the juice

The sensation of this juice is, apart from tea, fruity, sweet and milky. The set would almost have a floral feel.

This result is obtained by the association of tea and raspberry. On the other hand, on this recipe, it is difficult for me to separate these two elements. This union has the effect of annihilating each of the two aromas and offering a combination which, as I said, seems almost floral to me.
The sweet and milky aspect is present but wants to be delicately measured.

I would have appreciated a more present raspberry because I find that ultimately, this liquid is a little linear but it still remains a good juice, which I was able to appreciate. For that, it took me the 30ml to build an opinion, because of the feelings that I have just developed.

The aromatic power is measured, the presence and the hold in the mouth are to match.

My mood ticket on this juice

This recipe from Lille from Kapalina is good but requires giving it all the attention necessary to be appreciated at its true value.
This range is intended to be off the beaten track and we can say that the objective has been reached.

Sweet-Koï is not my favorite of the five variations around teas, but nevertheless appears in my trifecta.
One thing is certain, the brand and the flavorists master the subject and the recipes are really worthy of interest.

All that is missing is the few labeling corrections to be part of the flagships of “our” ecosystem.

See you soon for new hazy adventures,

About the Author

Follower of the tobacco vape and rather "tight" I do not balk in front of good greedy clouders. I love flavor-oriented drippers but am very curious about the evolutions of our common passion for personal vaporizers. Good reasons to make my modest contribution here, no?
