i received strawberry juice from MVS at med strength and it is very irritating on the throat.
its already steeped for 2 weeks.

i'd like to avoid more of these in the future, anyone know of any other juices that irritate it?

fyi, i really liked the low strength which was rather cool and smooth but didn't provide much throat hit at all.

It's best practice to drink lots of water, especially when vaping. This should reduce throat irritation. Also, throat hit has a greater affect in higher pg/vg ratios. You could try a lower pg/vg ratio for a less harsh hit, but the flavor will become slightly muted. Even if I use 100% VG juices, I have to drink water.

ETA: Both PG and VG are humectant, so they'll absorb and retain nearby moisture.

hm the throat hit i was talking about was, like a sugary throat hit, like what you get sometimes eating very sweet candies. i'd think this is different from the th you mentioning about?
