E-Liquids

E-Liquid, vape liquid, or vape juice is the liquid mixture that has been expertly blended using an amalgamation of integral ingredients. E-Liquid is added to your vape device to provide flavour, vapour, throat hit, and in most cases nicotine to relieve cravings. When e-liquid is added to your refillable pod or vape tank, a coil or heating element is activated by the power of your battery which vaporises the e-liquid and turns it into a flavourful vapour that can be inhaled through the mouthpiece of your e-cigarette.

E-Liquids are made up of a blend of ingredients.

Vegetable Glycerine (VG)

Vegetable glycerine, often abbreviated to ‘VG’ is responsible for vapour clouds. E-Liquids with a larger percentage of VG to PG tend to be much thicker and produce denser clouds of vapour with a smooth throat feel. High VG e-liquids are best suited to DTL (Direct To Lung) vaping.

Propylene Glycol (PG)

Propylene glycol, often abbreviated to ‘PG’ is responsible for throat hit and effectively carrying flavours. E-Liquids with a larger percentage of PG to VG tend to be thinner and provide a stronger throat hit feel. High PG e-liquids are best suited to MTL (Mouth To Lung) vaping.

Nicotine (Optional)

Nicotine is an addictive ingredient in e-liquids which helps satisfy nicotine cravings. E-Liquids are available in a choice of strengths to suit personal vaping habits and nicotine dependencies. You can purchase nicotine e-liquids in nic salts for smoother throat hits and faster craving relief, or freebase nicotine which provides a stronger throat hit. The maximum strength available in the UK is 20mg (2%) which has been limited under TPD regulations.

Flavourings

Flavourings in e-liquid are one of the most appealing reasons people switch from cigarettes to vaping. Food-grade e-liquid flavourings are used to recreate an abundance of tasty flavours including; fruit, tobacco, menthol and desserts. With such a varied choice of e-liquid flavours, every vaper can find their perfect match. Both natural and artificial flavourings are used when making e-liquid to deliver a range of taste profiles and delicious vape flavours.

E-Liquids are blended using various ratios of VG (Vegetable glycerine) and PG (Propylene glycol). Slightly adjusting the concentrations of each base mixture can change the overall vaping experience. As mentioned earlier, high ratios of PG bring stronger flavour and throat sensation, and high ratios of VG brings bigger vapour clouds and smooth vapour.

There are 3 main styles of inhaling vapour from an e-cigarette; MTL, RDTL and DTL which all require a different technique.

Mouth To Lung (MTL)

Mouth-To-Lung (MTL) vaping, often favoured by new vapers closely replicates the sensation of smoking from a cigarette with a tight and restricted draw. Draw vapour into your mouth, wait for a split second, and inhale the vapour into your lungs. When mouth-to-lung vaping, 50/50 VG/PG freebase e-liquids and nic salts are the optimal choice to mimic traditional cigarette smoking.

Restricted Direct To Lung (RDTL)

Restricted-Direct-To-Lung (RDTL) vaping, is a relatively new vaping style which sits midway between MTL and DTL vaping. RDTL vaping offers an airier and looser MTL vaping experience, and tighter and restricted DTL inhalation experience. Draw the vapour into your lungs as if you were DTL vaping, but restricting the airflow. This hybrid vaping style provides larger clouds than MTL vaping with a warmer vapour. When RDTL vaping, nicotine salts and 50/50 freebase vape juice are suitable for a unique vaping experience.

Direct To Lung (DTL)

Direct-To-Lung (DTL) vaping, is a pro-level vaping style which is more suited to experienced vapers who favour larger vapour clouds and the warmth from higher wattages. Draw vapour directly into your lungs, as if you are taking a deep breath of air and experience smooth dense vapour with amplified flavour. When DTL vaping, high VG e-liquids including 70% VG shortfills are required. You will need a high wattage sub-ohm vape kit and cloud tank to experience the best DTL vaping experience.

There are various types of vape liquids available to suit individual vaping preferences, vaping styles and vaping devices. Salt nicotine e-liquids for MTL vapes provide smooth inhales along with being rapidly absorbed by the body. VG-heavy e-liquids for DTL vapes produce large vapour cloud production in low nicotine strengths. 50/50 freebase e-liquids for MTL vapes are the original style of e-liquid used in vape kits which provide stronger throat hits along with being available in a wider choice of vape liquid flavours.

Depending on your personal vaping preferences and vape kit setup, we stock the UK’s best e-liquid flavours available at the lowest prices guaranteed.

Nicotine Salts E-Liquid

Nicotine salts or nic salt e-liquids are a great choice for transitioning smokers who are looking for smoother throat hits with less irritation, enhanced rate of nicotine absorption for fast craving relief, and long-lasting craving satisfaction. Nicotine salt formulas feel gentle on the throat in higher nicotine concentrations, and are suitable for use in low-powered and entry-level devices which are easy to use.

Nic salts are available in a choice of nicotine strengths including, 5mg, 10mg and 20mg.

• Smooth throat hit
• Rapid nicotine delivery
• High nicotine strengths
• Long-lasting satisfaction

Freebase Nicotine E-Liquid

Traditional or freebase e-liquids are a great option for those switching from smoking to vaping and looking for slightly harsher throat hits which are more akin to traditional cigarette smoking. They are the purest form of nicotine which are slower absorbed by our bodies than nic salts, and available in a wider selection of strengths.

Nic salts are available in a choice of nicotine strengths including, 0mg, 3mg, 6mg, 12mg and 18mg.

• Stronger throat hits
• Slower nicotine absorption
• Wider range of nicotine strengths

Shortfill E-Liquid

Shortfill e-liquids are an expert-level option for advanced vapers who use thirsty sub ohm tanks, which would quickly vaporise smaller 10ml bottles of e-liquid. These larger bottles of e-liquid most commonly available in 100ml format come partly filled to 80% capacity leaving room in the bottle to add nic shots to provide a boost of nicotine if required. These mix your own e-liquids offer the flexibility to dictate your nicotine level for a customised vaping experience.

Shortfills come in a nicotine free formulation (0mg) with the option of adding your own nicotine if desired. Most commonly vaped at 0mg, 3mg and 6mg strengths.

• Large vape clouds
• Larger bottles
• Mix your own nicotine
• Cost-effective

Nicotine Shots

Nicotine shots or nic shots are concentrated nicotine boosters which are used in conjunction with short-fill e-liquids to add nicotine. Nic shots combined with shortfill e-liquids were introduced following the introduction of the TPD which limits nicotine-containing e-liquid bottles to a maximum volume of 10ml in capacity.

Favoured by vapers who consume a large amount of e-liquid and prefer larger bottles, would rather have the flexibility to self-adjust nicotine concentrations, and the cost-efficient price point of mixing your own vape juices.

Nic shots are available in various VG/PG ratios including 70% VG and 50% VG, with either a flavourless solution or with added Ice flavour concentrate to add mentholated flavour to the overall e-liquid flavour profile.

MTL vape kits

Pod vape kits and pen vape kits with low-wattage outputs are often referred to as mouth-to-lung vape kits or MTL for short. These devices use high-resistance coils (1.0Ω, 1.2Ω), and work well with thin e-liquids including, nicotine salts, bar salts (disposable-inspired flavoured nic salts), and 50/50 VG/PG freebase liquids. 50/50 MTL vape juices will supply a balanced ratio of cloud production and throat hit – for a discreet and smooth vaping experience.

DTL vape kits

Sub-ohm vape kits with high-wattage outputs are often referred to as direct-to-lung vape kits or DTL for short. These devices use low-resistance coils (0.2Ω, 0.15Ω), and work well with thick e-liquids including, high VG e-liquids like shortfills. 70% VG vape juices will supply thick clouds of vapour with smooth throat hits – for extreme flavour with added sweetness from the vegetable glycerin.

Vapes or e-cigarettes are far less harmful than cigarettes, and can help you quit smoking for good. When vaping you inhale nicotine vapour rather than smoke from the burning of the tobacco leaf. As a result vapes do not produce tar or carbon monoxide, two of the most damaging elements in tobacco smoke.

In the UK vapes and e-liquids are tightly regulated for safety and quality. Vaping is not completely risk-free, but it poses a small fraction of the risk of smoking cigarettes. The long-term risks of vaping are not yet clear.

Always purchase your vape supplies from trusted vape stores, and opt for well-known brand names where possible to ensure they are genuine and high quality.

Yes, e-liquids will eventually expire. Most bottles of e-liquid will last for 2 years from the manufacturing date. Bottles of e-liquid are legally required to have a best before date, and should be used within this timeframe. Once bottles of e-liquid are opened they will expire quicker and should last up to 6 months if stored correctly.

E-Liquids should be stored at room temperature in a cool, dark place away from extreme heat sources including direct sunlight and radiators. Store your e-liquids away from children and pets as they can be harmful if ingested.

Nic salts will work well in pod system kits, pen kits and low powered MTL kits. They are not suited to sub ohm kits, high powered devices or low resistance coils.

Shortfill e-liquids will work well in sub ohm kits and DTL vapes. They are not suited to low wattage devices or high resistance coils.

50/50 freebase and nicotine salt vape liquids are a perfect pairing with pod kits as 50/50 liquids are thin in consistency, recommended for low wattage vape kits with high resistance coils.

70% VG e-liquids are best paired with sub ohm kits as VG-heavy liquids are thick in consistency, recommended to produce thicker clouds, smooth throat hits and exquisite flavour delivery.

Nic salts and 50/50 e-liquid blends are an ideal pairing with low wattage pen-style vape kits, recommended to produce discreet vapour and bold flavour profiles.

If you’re new to vaping and deciding which strength of nicotine to choose, we have created a handy guide to help lead you in the right direction.

• 20 cigarettes per day (heavy smokers) = 20mg nicotine salts or 18mg freebase
• 10 cigarettes per day (medium smokers) = 10mg nicotine salts or 12mg freebase
• 5 cigarettes per day (light smokers) = 5mg nicotine salts or 6mg freebase
• Less than 5 cigarettes per day (light/social smokers) = 5mg nicotine salts, or 3mg freebase, 0mg (nicotine free)

Please note: this is a rough guide and your previous smoking habits when translated into nicotine strengths or puff counts when vaping may vary. Choose a nicotine strength that supplies enough nicotine to your body in order to satisfy your cravings, and keeps you off cigarettes for good.

TPD or Tobacco Products Directive compliance refers to UK legal vaping products that coheres with EU vape laws and regulations.

TPD-compliant e-liquids containing nicotine must be sold in bottles no larger than 10ml, and nicotine strengths must not exceed 20mg/ml (2%). E-Liquid packaging must include the correct labelling, warnings, and child-resistant caps which are tamper evident must be used.

These regulations are in place to protect customers, and set high quality standards for UK vapers. The warnings and labelling requirements are to provide the correct information so customers can make informed choices and help stop children from starting to use vape products.

Each bottle of vape liquid will have a legally required expiry date printed on it, which is usually 2 years from the date of manufacture. Once your bottle has been opened, it will last up to 6 months if stored properly.

The average vaper will use approximately 2ml of e-liquid per day, meaning one 10ml bottle should last up to 5 days. Vape as much as you need to satisfy cravings, and don’t worry if you are using more than 2ml of juice per day to stop smoking.
