Is it just the juice I have, or is high VG harsh?

So I do not live in the town I grew up in right now because life happens. SO I am not near the shop my friend works out to get good "deals" on juice. ((often free =) )) So I got this bottle of "Heady Drips" juice and it is 80% VG. But it seems rather harsh for a 3. Is that a VG thing or just the brand I got? I got it because it is 12 for a 30.

I have an allergy to pg and even when i use 20%pg I break out in a rash all over my back, face, and chest. But I did see a dr and 2 visits later we found out it was a pg allergy. Try all vg then all pg see if you can tell or go to the doctor and see what they can tell you. Sorry this is happing to you...good luck!

They do sell 100% VG on fasttech
I personally wouldn't buy any liquids or bases from Fasttech. You never know what quality the liquids/bases are, so you might get something that's slightly poisonous and 50% water.

Couple of great VG and PG manufacturers are Lubrisolve and Chemnovatic, from which Chemnovatic is created for vaping specifically.

Edit: Also, VG and nicotine has got lower throat hit, so it might be either alcohol-based flavorings or slightly lesser quality nicotine that's making the liquid harsh :)

I recently bought some e liquid that tasted terrible. After I had left it to steep for a week it was like a different juice altogether. It was smoother and the flavour had settled in. I was surprised at how much it changed. Leave it in a cool dark place for a few days and try it then.

There's no mention of what atomizer that your using, with the thicker liquid in a tank atomizer it may not wick very well making it on the dry side which would be harsh. A dripper though should be no problem.
