Comments on the packaging
I have in my hand a completely classic invoice bottle which, if it will not revolutionize the genre, is practical to use. The tamper-evident seal is quite fragile, which makes you wonder its interest in the state since it is unscrewed with the cap and screwed back in the same way. But the quality of this liquid is undoubtedly inside since it is the first and only French manufacturer to develop a range based on tobacco macerate.

Vapelier's note regarding the respect of various conformities (except religious): 4.13 / 5 
Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects
Minimalist in its bottles, the Valley becomes cryptic in its composition. Indeed, if the different ingredients appear on the label, we have no idea of the proportions of these elements. This is all the more unfortunate as this information is communicated on the manufacturer's website. We therefore have here a PG / VG mixture of 60/40 and the presence of alcohol which, in the current state of our knowledge, does not benefit from enough scientific studies to define its safety or its harmfulness by inhalation.
Certainly, some American juices do much worse in this area, but this average between the packaging and the safety notices is clearly below what we can expect from an e-liquid in our time where transparency could be a weapon. unstoppable to tip the scales in favor of the vape at a time when its very existence is suspended to political decisions.
Appreciation of the packaging

- Global correspondence of the packaging with the product name: Yes
- The packaging effort made is in accordance with the price category: No
Vapelier's note regarding packaging with regard to juice category: 3.33 / 5 
Comments on the packaging
The aesthetic quality of the packaging suffers from the flaconnage which seems to come from the middle ages of vaping. We are clearly here on a bottle of the “Inawera” type which is quite acceptable on entry-level liquid but which is a bit stain for a liquid on this price positioning.
Without prejudging the taste qualities of the Valley, we are entitled to hope for a more elegant packaging on a high-end product. Of course, we can argue that the essential is inside the bottle and how to deny this evidence? But we all know that our eyes are much more easily on a pretty bottle when we do not know the liquid and that the aesthetics count when choosing, if only to “validate” a price clearly above the average. .
This is all the more unfortunate for the brand itself which gives the impression of being afraid to display its Premium aspect and which, as a result, becomes less attractive on a photo or on a shop arrangement.

Vapelier's note on the sensory experience: 5/5 
Comments on the taste of the juice
So, this is where the quality of this product is defined. And he has plenty to spare!
First, it is therefore a liquid resulting from a macerate of tobacco, namely the fact of having left tobacco leaves to macerate in a solution allowing it to express its juices (generally alcohol or of the PG). We therefore expect a realistic tobacco taste and we are not disappointed. The flavor of tobacco, finely worked to impart a slight sweetness to it, absorbing part of its bitterness immediately convinces.
Beyond that, we get a strong hit, very typical of macerates, which leaves a slightly oily film in the throat and which recalls the sensations experienced when smoking. Embellished with a beautiful vapor, dense and white, voluptuous in the mouth. For uncompromising tobacco lovers, it is therefore a must-have, whose inspiration is undoubtedly to be found at El Toro, an essential reference for fans of the genre, to whom he allows himself to be quite comparable in terms of taste quality.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
In view of the category of juice, I recommend using a reconstructable atomizer developing a warm / hot vapor. We can even bring out a good Genesis for the occasion. However, I advise against using it with a clearomiser because, like its illustrious model, this juice has an annoying tendency to clog the coils, which seems to be the rule when using macerate. Rest assured though, it clogs less than El Toro.

My mood ticket on this juice
A very nice discovery for me. This juice is really good, extremely tobacco and for good reason, it does not forget to distill ethereal flavors of wood, smoke and some herbal touches that are really reminiscent of the tobacco leaf. This liquid is rather strong and racy, like the few aforementioned references to which it can be compared without blushing.
It remains for the brand to make an effort on the packaging which should make people want more and better than it currently does. We are at the top of the range in terms of price, a top of the range that the quality of the juice assumes perfectly but which is constrained by a summary and outdated presentation.
This is the only downside that we can remember because, when we go to the tasting, we enter another planet. It's smooth, powerful, complex and infinitely tobacco. This juice will appeal to ex-lovers of cigarettes or cigarillos without a blow, and it poses itself as a formidable candidate when the question of doing without smoking arises and it is not nothing!
A taste success so.
