Comments on the taste of the juice
“WANAKA
Travel to New Zealand with this kiwi recipe ”
The central theme is indeed the kiwi, but Solana did not leave it alone. He therefore associated it with nectarine. A super well-felt marriage, the kiwi with its slightly bitter acidity dominates the beginning of the discussions, but very quickly the nectarine and its fragrant fruitiness merges into the kiwi, at this moment it stops the propagation of the acidity of the small green fruit. Our blend forms a kind of smoothie, sweet fruity and very subtly tangy. This recipe works really well, it's good fruity juice, well balanced, which makes the fruit greedy.

My mood ticket on this juice
Solana invites us on a long journey, in fact the Wanaka gives pride of place to an emblematic fruit of New Zealand: the Kiwi. This fruit whose flavor balances between acidity and bitterness is associated with a fragrant and sweet nectarine. This blend works wonderfully, the two fruits complement each other perfectly. The fruity sweetness on one side is an ideal countermeasure to the acidity, nothing is predominant, the balance is total.
A fruity juice full of sunshine, which will delight lovers of these flavors and which is good, especially when the weather is gray.
good vape
