okay so this weird thing has happened now twice to me. i have a smok nord (with a mesh coil, not that it matters) and today i bought vape juice that i've bought 3 times in the past. the vape juice is always purchased in 50 salt nic juice, but today when i squeezed that first tank of juice in and hit my nord, i literally died because it was so harsh. i've been vaping on 50 salt nic juice for about half a year now and i've never had problems with it feeling too harsh. the vape juice is not expired at all, nor is it close to being so. about a month ago the same thing happened to my brother, where his vape juice was just oddly wayyyy too harsh. does anyone know why this could be? maybe just a mix up on the labels? i'm not sure but the fact that this has happened twice now in my life, there is no way no one else has experienced this.

Hi and welcome,
What brand and flavor had you used?
Was the rest of the bottle okay?
Did you change the coil and notice any improvement?
What juice was your brother using? Does he have a SMOK also?


Cheers

contact the supplier
if it's the same ingredients (juice) u always buy there could be a issue with one of the ingredients
perhaps even freebase was used by accident if it's in shop made juice

bit if it's different flavour juice it might even be a reaction to one of the flavors??? Or a ingredients change in your goto juice???

Not sure if this could be it, but sometimes when a tank is over wicking or slightly flooded it becomes harsh in my experience. This usually occurs from time to time for various reasons but in rta tanks where the juice flow is open to much or a wicking issue, so not sure on drop in coils or pods. Perhaps it can happen in pods if juice is to thin or just a loosely packed coil, but if a coil does flood it does have this harshness and doesnt produce as much vapor

Might be age of the juice.

Case in point, back in the winter I bought a bottle of 35 salt nic and loved it. But for various reasons stopped using it. Monday I filled a tank with it and hoh-nelly it was harsh. Others may find it perfect and say "finally a good throat hit" but to me it was way too much TH. Caused me to think the age intensified something.

it was the exact juice that i've gotten many times, my sister has the same juice as well as the same vape. my juice was significantly darker than hers was even though they were the exact same nic and flavour. we tried the juice in both of our vapes to see if it was the coil, but it turned out to just be the juice. i decided to not care about it anymore and get used to it, the flavour is still good as ...., just burns my throat a bit in the morning
