Nicotine salt (or nic salt) is a type of naturally forming nicotine found in leaf tobacco and when blended with e-liquids, is the most efficient way to deliver nicotine to your body. It is blended with flavoured e-liquid in 10ml bottles for MTL (mouth-to-lung) kits.

WHY SHOULD I TRY NIC SALTS?

If you are a smoker looking for the most effective way to make your switch to vaping stick, then nic salts are key. Nic salts provide high amounts of nicotine that deliver rapid and long-lasting craving satisfaction, with the benefit that you use less to get what you need. And unlike freebase nicotine, nic salts provide an enjoyably smooth throat hit and exceptional flavour production.

NIC SALTS VERSUS FREEBASE NICOTINE

Conventional nicotine is also known as "freebase" nicotine. It has a higher pH and delivers an extremely strong throat hit in strengths above 12mg while also causing flavours to be somewhat muted. This may suit some, but if you want strong, rapid delivery with bold flavour then you’ll want nic salts.

Nic salt is the kind of nicotine found in the leaves of tobacco, it is extracted in its purest form and then blended with benzoic acid to lower the pH level, which allows for quick absorption and a mild throat hit.

The chemical structure of nic salts makes them more biologically available to our bodies and as a result, they are absorbed in seconds and keep your cravings at bay for longer. The feeling is identical to that of smoking tobacco which makes for a seamless and stress-free transition from smoking to vaping.

DO NIC SALTS HAVE BETTER FLAVOUR?

Nic salts deliver excellent flavour. Freebase nicotine will greatly impair the flavour of e-liquid, especially at higher strengths of 12mg and 18mg, where you will experience the peppery taste of the nicotine over the flavour. Whereas nicotine salt is flavourless and doesn't impact the flavours at all, no matter the strength, so you can enjoy exceptional flavours that also offer a much wider variety of choice and complexity.

ARE NIC SALTS HARSH?

The low pH of nic salts makes them extremely smooth when compared to freebase nicotine. The throat hit is mild yet present enough that you’ll know that you are vaping more than air.

DO NIC SALTS HAVE MORE NICOTINE?

Nic salts offer the highest amount of nicotine available in the UK. They are available in 5mg, 10mg or 20mg strengths, to match your smoking habit.

IS NIC SALT CHEAPER?

Short answer, yes! Their rapid and long-lasting delivery means that you will get your fix in a few quick puffs, meaning you’ll be using less e-liquid.

CAN I SUB-OHM VAPE NIC SALTS?

10ml flavoured nic salts are designed for MTL (mouth-to-lung) devices and work best on coils from 1.0ohm and upward. Sub-ohm devices kick out massive plumes of vapour and nic salts vaped on their own through a sub-ohm kit will be extremely harsh and deliver an overwhelming amount of nicotine. You can, however, can mix a flavourless nic shot with a high VG 50ml or 100ml shortfill bottle as this will dilute the nic shot with the more suitable thicker e-liquid.
