    I prefer naturally sweet and sometimes a touch of sweetner but some of the fruit flavors are just too sweet and being sugar sensitive,possibly future diabetic I need to watch what I vape.
    What type of sweetners are mostly used?
    Are there flavors or liquids with a more subtle natural sweetness?
    For example tobacco has a natural sugar,depending how it's cured.

    Sucralose is most popular. Stevia has been used. Ethyl Maltol causes a form of sweetness. Vegetable Glycerin, part of the base, is also sweet. Sugar tends to gunk coils even in small quantities.

    TFA lists about 1% sugar in some of their flavor concentrates (used 2-15% of the ejuice). This is an analysis, not a recipe, and probably comes from flavor extraction rather than being intentionally added.

    Yes premade sorry about that.
    I can't be sure but I might be getting some effects from added sweetners.
    If you've tried coil glaze honey buns this has a very similar sweetness to it.
    Halo seems fine until I added a bit of another brand and it's almost as if I could feel the sugar crystallizing in my mouth and throat.
    It's getting very clear I'm going to have to start making my own liquids.Dizziness and ringing ears from 0mg shouldn't be an issue.
