How to choose e-cig juice for you?

Choosing the right type of e-juice is entirely dependent on your preference. However, knowing the categories of e-liquids can help you out in determining the e-liquid types and flavours that will fit your taste.

Categories of e-liquids

An e-juice is a mixture of 4 different components: VG (vegetable glycerin), PG (propylene glycol), flavouring, water and in some cases nicotine. e-ciggy.com does not sell nicotine. While some e-juice mixtures have additional ingredients, these 4 main ingredients are included in every e-juice mixture. E-liquids can be categorized by nicotine strength and PG/VG ratio.

 

Categorization of e-liquids by nicotine strength

E-liquids have different nicotine strengths. The amount of nicotine in the vapour produced by an electronic cig depends on the nicotine strength in the e-juice mixture. Nicotine-free e-liquids are available at our shop for those who want to use e-cigs mainly for flavour.

Categorization of e-liquids by PG/VG ratio

E-liquids have different PG/VG ratios. There are three different types of e-liquids under the PG/VG ratio category. They are VG e-juice, PG e-juice and VG/PG mix. The VG (vegetable glycerin) e-juice is the thickest liquid mixture among the three. It produces a thick cloud of vapour and gives a more sweet taste to the liquid. The PG (propylene glycol) e-juice is made to produce a stronger throat hit. It is more focused on the feeling of the throat over thickness of smoke and sweetness. Since the PG e-juice has a stronger throat hit, sensitive people can't use it in their e-cigs. The PG/VG e-juice gives you the best of both worlds. It produces a good smoking experience and more flavour in the vapour produced by the e-ciggy.
