Nic Salt E-Liquid
Nic salt e-liquids, or nicotine salt e-liquids, have become increasingly popular among vapers. Check out premium nicotine salts from well-known brands like Aquavape, ULTD, Bar Works, Elfliq, and Vampire Vape. These vape juices contain nicotine extracted from the tobacco leaf using a different process than traditional freebase e-liquids to fulfil nicotine cravings faster. Nicotine salt e-liquids have a smoother and more potent hit, making them a favourite among former smokers looking for a more satisfying vaping experience. Nic salt e-liquids typically come in higher nicotine concentrations, making them ideal for those trying to quit smoking and needing a higher dose of nicotine to satisfy their cravings.

What are nic salts?
Nic salts, or nicotine salts, are a type of e-liquid blending natural plant-based nicotine and acid – typically Benzoic acid. These e-liquids are designed for faster nicotine delivery and a smoother throat hit than freebase e-liquids, making them an increasingly popular choice with vapers.
Nic salt vape juice typically comes in a 10ml bottle, with nicotine strengths ranging from 0 (nicotine-free) to 20mg, the maximum. Most nicotine salts feature a 50VG/50PG ratio, striking an even balance of flavour and vapour, and making them suited to low-powered mouth-to-lung (MTL) pod kits.
Why choose nic salts?
Nic salts are a great choice due to their rapid nicotine delivery and smooth throat sensation. Compared to freebase e-liquids, nicotine salts offer a noticeably smoother inhale, even at higher nicotine strengths.
Here is a breakdown of the benefits of nic salt e-liquids:
- Fast Craving Relief – Nicotine salts are designed to mimic the fast craving relief of tobacco and are quickly absorbed into the blood stream. You will usually feel the nicotine taking effect in less than 10 seconds.
- Smooth Throat Sensation – The acid in nic salts lowers the pH of the e-liquid, removing the harsh throat feeling you get from freebase e-liquid.
- Comfortable at Higher Nicotine Strengths – Nic salt e-liquid offers nicotine strengths of up to 20mg, ideal for ex smokers and those seeking an intense nicotine hit.
- Good for Beginners – Because of the higher nicotine content, nic salts are typically used in low-powered pod kits, producing a discreet vapour output that mimics a cigarette. This makes them a great choice for newbies and smokers looking to make the switch to vaping.
How to use nic salts?
Nic salts are used in the same way as freebase e-liquids. Simply fill your pod with e-liquid and allow the coil to saturate for a few minutes, before taking a draw from your vape.
Choosing the right pod kit
For nicotine salts, we always recommend using low-powered MTL and starter pod kits with a 1.0ohm or higher coil resistance. Nicotine salts are typically thin and don’t require much power to vapourise when compared to freebase e-liquids.
Choosing the right nicotine strength
This really depends on your personal preference, but ex smokers on less than 10 cigarettes a day may find that a 10mg works best for them, or for heavier smokers, 20mg strength delivers the highest nicotine delivery.
- 0mg (Nicotine-free) – This is ideal for vapers looking to give up their nicotine dependency while still enjoying the vaping sensation.
- 5mg – A low strength for lighter vapers.
- 10mg – This falls somewhere in between light and heavy nicotine. Perfect for a moderate vaping experience.
- 20mg – This is the maximum strength available and delivers the most intense nicotine hit.
If you’re unsure where to start, consider choosing a lower nicotine strength first of all, before progressing to stronger nicotine strengths.
Take slow puffs
Nic salts deliver a nicotine experience similar to cigarettes. We recommend taking short breaks between each inhale to allow the coil to saturate – this will improve taste without overwhelming your device.
What are the best nic salts?
This really boils down to your preferred flavours, nicotine strengths and e-liquid brands. At Aquavape, our popular nic salt ranges include Aquavape nic salts, Bar Works nicotine salts and Elf Bar Elfliq nic salts. Every range features its own choice of nicotine strengths and flavours to suit a variety of vapers. From sweet and fruity blends to indulgent dessert and icy menthol flavours, our selection caters to every taste.
Here is a list of some of our most popular nic salt ranges:
- Aquavape – Aquavape’s very own brand nic salts remain some of the most popular in our selection. From rich tobacco and icy menthol to sweet berry and other fruit flavours, our Aquavape selection offers rich taste and smooth nicotine delivery at an affordable price without compromising on quality.
- Elfbar Elfliq – These nicotine salts deliver the same rich taste of the much-loved Elfbar disposables, making them hugely popular among vapers. Available in a range of nicotine strengths, flavours include juicy fruit and menthol combinations to fizzy drink and cool, icy blends.
- Bar Works – Delivering intensely sweet flavour, Bar Works nic salts are designed to replicate the bold, punchy taste of disposable vapes. Our favourites include Sweet Strawberry, and the cool, refreshing Watermelon Ice.
- Elux – Our Elux selection features the hugely popular Elux Legend nic salts, offering intense flavour that replicates the Elux disposable vape. This vape juice is available in 5mg-20mg nicotine strengths, with flavours including the fruity and refreshing Mr Blue, and the sweet and tangy Grape Berry.
- Bar Juice 5000 – As one of the UK’s leading bar salt brands, Bar Juice 5000 offers a wide range of disposable-inspired flavours with a smooth nicotine experience. Available in over 50 flavours, our selection includes luscious fruit combinations and sweet candy choices.
20mg nicotine is the highest nicotine strength available in the UK, and delivers the strongest nicotine hit. This is ideal if you’re a heavy smoker or someone who enjoys stronger nicotine satisfaction.
Nic salts don’t necessarily carry more flavour than freebase e-liquids, though they often replicate rich flavours from disposable vapes, giving them a sweeter taste.
This is really down to preference, but nic salts are ideal for vapers who prioritise fast nicotine delivery and a smooth throat sensation. Freebase e-liquids, on the other hand, are best-suited for vapers who prefer a stronger, more traditional throat hit similar to cigarettes.
Yes, nic salts are good for beginner vapers. Nicotine salts are typically used in low-powered mouth-to-lung (MTL) pod kits which produce a discreet amount of vapour, similar to a cigarette.
The differences between nic salt and freebase e-liquids are mostly what the e-liquids are made with, and the nicotine experience provided. Nicotine salts are made with a combination of pure nicotine from tobacco leaves and a form of acid (typically Benzoic); these provide fast craving relief and a smooth throat sensation, while performing best with low-powered pod kits.
Freebase e-liquids, on the other hand, contain nicotine in its purest form with no acid included. They come with different (usually lower) nicotine strengths and are best suited to sub-ohm devices, depending on the VG/PG ratio. They offer slower nicotine delivery and a harsher throat hit due to the absence of acid.
Like all forms of nicotine, nic salts come with health risks which need to be considered. Nicotine increases your heart rate and blood pressure and is highly addictive. Nicotine salts are not considered more harmful than freebase e-liquids but carry the same risks. Nic salts are to be used by adults only and be kept out of reach of children and pets.
Nicotine salts are not generally stronger than freebase e-liquids as they both contain similar nicotine strengths. However, they may seem stronger due to the super-quick nicotine delivery.
