Question about Nicotine amounts in juice

[tabithad]

Is it the norm that a juice with less nicotine tastes better than one with higher nicotine ?

I have noticed a difference between 24 and 18 mg but since I am new at this I am wondering if it's just the pg/vg mix, lack of flavoring or the brand of juice..... thoughts or experiences ?

I've found that to be the case, personally. I think it's more because at higher levels, the nicotine "taste" begins to overshadow the flavoring. But, as is often said here, everybody's taste is different!

But it really depends on what you want the taste to.. well, to taste like. I like the higher mg ones because of the peppery TH/taste.

I really think that I want them to taste just sweet, or anything other than nicotine or tobacco...
I have some 24mg on order for different flavors but once I try them, they might not be my cup of tea. I think that I can vape 18mg all day and be happy and have more taste.
For all of your help Rosa I think I owe you a few bottles of high mg that I might decide I don't want

LOL! I'm always up for a freebee, but hold onto any juice you don't like right now because you can always get a doubler later and adjust the strength or flavor to be just what you like.

Don't forget that higher nic juice comes in handy for those bad cravings. I like to use 24 or 30mg for after a meal, first in the morning and any other time I get a real bad craving.

Nicotine makes the flavor more peppery.

PG lets through more flavor but also lets through the most of nicotine's harshness
VG gives a smoother and somewhat sweeter vape with more visible vapor

And sometimes a liquid will just vary a bit from batch to batch

Also - the longer a liquid sits it can gain flavor from the flavoring melding together better and any floweriness of some flavorings wearing off

Dormouse is exactly correct, as usual. I was going to also suggest a higher VG content if you want a smoother sweeter vape. Just be aware that higher VG also mutes the flavor quite a bit.

I have ordered some new juices in lower nic level with higher VG levels to try....
I am hoping I notice a difference

for finding what pg/vg/nic level you like best, I'd suggest getting several small bottles of liquid all the same flavor (one you already know u like) in different vg/pg blends and nic concentration, that way the flavor acts as a "control" so you can tell how much the pg/vg/nic changes affect how you like your juice.

That is a great suggestion !! and an excuse to buy more juice hehe
