Well, that’s the 2-million dollar question, isn’t it? If anyone could answer that question, then it wouldn’t be long before the money started rolling in for them as they sold the liquid by the bucket load.

Of course, nothing is ever that simple. We don’t know what the best e liquid is. In fact, there isn’t a “best” liquid and there never will be. Do you know why? Yes, naturally you do. It’s because people have different tastes and preferences.

That means that we can’t answer the question of which is the best e liquid UK. What we can do, though, is help you to work out which liquid is likely to work best for you depending on a number of variables. Use the guide below to help you work out which is the right one for you.

There are three different variables for choosing your e liquid:

1. The ratio of PG to VG:

There are generally three different ratios on sale. These are 50:50 (PG:VG), 40:60 (PG:VG), and 30:70 (PG:VG).

PG is needed as a delivery method for the liquid. It makes sure that it is easy to vape and it does this in a way that does not interfere with the flavour of the e-juice.

The more PG there is, the harsher the hit at the back of the throat. Many people enjoy a hard hit, especially smokers.

If you like a hard hit, then choose a juice with a high PG:VG ratio (i.e. 50:50). If you prefer a mellower hit, then go for a juice with a higher VG ratio, so the 40:60 or the 30:70.

VG is needed to create the plumes of vape. It has a sweet flavour, and so can change the taste of your juice. If you prefer peaty, earthy, and musky flavours, then you would want to avoid a juice that has a higher VG ratio as it will make these flavours juicier and sweeter.

People who like to blow the big clouds prefer the high VG juices, especially the 30:70 juices. This can help them blow huge vapes. It’s pretty cool.

It’s a little annoying, but the vape shops don’t really display their juices according to these ratios, so you may have to spend a little time hunting around for a decent juice. A good rule of thumb is that the sweeter flavours tend to be high VG and the musky flavours, low PG.

2. The Flavour

When it comes to finding your perfect juice, flavour is like food: we all have different tastes. However, some flavours are much more popular than other flavours are. For example, people love the Candy King range.

3. The Nicotine

E-juices come in a range of nicotine levels, from those that contain none to those that contain 18mg per 10ml. The stronger the nicotine the bigger the buzz, but do be careful because nicotine can have some nasty side effects, such as anxiety and panic attacks. Clearly, the best e liquid UK is going to be one that doesn’t cause those side effects, so stick to the lower nicotine contents unless you’re a heavy smoker looking to replace the habit.
