Round 3.
A high-ranking jury comes onto the stage to evaluate this round.
  • TERMS:
    There are 5 numbered bottles with fresh smoothie drinks on the stage. Each smoothie contains a combination of no more than three types of products.
    Any participant can get any smoothie composition. The list of flavors from which the smoothie will be created will be provided immediately before the competition.
    All necessary flavors will be on the stage. If desired, the participant can bring flavors with him/herself.
  • TASK:
    The participant tries the drink in the bottle under his number. The composition of the mix is determined by taste. The master’s task is to create a perfectly similar taste of the mix in the vape by mixing various flavors by applying them to the proposed base or you can bring the base with you.
    The participant will be chosen by lot. After trying the drink, the participant goes to a separate table to create a mix that best matches the flavor profile of the drink. To create a mix, you can bring all the necessary equipment with you or use the equipment provided by the organizer. The following equipment will be available on stage
    Pasteur pipettes and syringes of different sizes for measuring volume
    Chemical beakers and bottles for mixing ingredients
    Accurate scales
    After creating the mix, the participant tests the finished liquid on VOOPOO V. THRU Pro provided especially for this stage by VOOPOO.
    The participant hands the filled device to the jury table.
    Based on the testing results, the jury makes a verdict on which of the flavors was closest to the original drink. The winner is the participant who created the liquid flavor most similar to the submitted drink.
  • GRADE:
    The high jury also tastes the smoothie and evaluates the accuracy of the match. The jury gives a score in percentage terms, where 0% means no match, 100% means a complete match. The final score is calculated using the average %.
The 3 most successful masters take prize places.
