Comments on the packaging
La Vape Insulaire is a new brand from The Freaks Factory galaxy that offers us premium liquids in all taste categories. There will be some for everyone !
Our candidate of the day is called Thé & Yuzu d'Hokkaido, named after one of the islands of the Japanese archipelago. An invitation to travel that corroborates a sympathetic and adapted aesthetic.
Sold at the price of 20.90 €, which corresponds to the median price of the market, the liquid is here in its livery ready to boost. It therefore carries 50 ml of overdosed aroma that can be extended with 10 or 20 ml of neutral base and/or booster(s) in order to obtain, according to your tastes and needs, a ready-to-vape of 60 or 70 ml on a scale of levels between 0 and about 6 mg/ml of nicotine.
If that was not enough, you will also have the possibility of choosing a 10 ml format at 5.90 €, available here in levels of 0, 3, 6 and 11 mg/ml of nicotine. What to see coming so or possibly to launch you for a test.
The liquid in all cases is assembled on a 50/50 PG/VG base, which seems reasonable for the development of flavors and a nice volume of vapor.
On paper, therefore, we have an interesting proposal that we will discover further. You have your ticket, boarding has begun!

Comments on the packaging
… and a good trip often starts with an itinerary made on Waze or, the old-fashioned way, on a map.
That's pretty good, it appears, as well as the coordinates of the island, on the cardboard box of the packaging. All you need is a good sextant to navigate.
The concept is effective and necessarily exotic. The realization does not suffer from any defect. It's pretty, well drawn including the ingredients of the liquid. The color code, differentiating it from other destinations, is here a forest green which stands out against the parchment background of the box.
I will end with a flat and a sharp in order to harmonize the score.
The downside: It's great to show composition and disclaimers in multiple languages. It would be better if each language had its own paragraph. Mixing in sections makes the whole thing less readable.
The dièze: Mention very well for the cap of the bottle which ends in a rectangular tint, ideal for unscrewing without slipping. Cheer !

Comments on the taste of the juice
Here is a liquid that surprises and detonates in current production and it is a rare quality.
We have here, as the surname of the liquid suggested, a soft and sweet oriental green tea, which does not overlook a certain vegetable bitterness. A nice balance between gluttony and herbality which quickly becomes very pleasant on the palate.
The promised yuzu is also present and does not take long to develop its astringency. It blossoms quickly in the tea stream and imparts a citrus coloring to the overall flavor. More acidic and bitter than lemon, it perfectly counterbalances the sweet thickness and the greenness of the tea.
A touch of freshness makes the tasting quite recommendable in beautiful heat without ever being caricatural.
The recipe is held firmly and delivers sweetness, acidity, bitterness and gluttony with the same fervor.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
Perfect in any evaporation device given its fluidity, Tea and Yuzu is to be vaped rather in RDL or DL with controlled ventilation in order to obtain the warm/cold temperature that suits it best.
Ideal for vaping slumped on a deck chair on the exotic wooden deck of a yacht or on a simple camping chair, naked in the courtyard of the building, to perfect your tan. Everyone does what they can!
