Without enough nicotine or PG you'll get no throat hit - Is that the rule?

Different folks different strokes.
Me, I one of those who need a kick in the throat AND the nose.
I just love my throat hit and my nose hit.

Yeah, I'm a sucker for nose hit as well, it's what I look for in higher nic juices. My throat doesn't seem to "feel" as much hit as my nose does, and I wonder if my singing in the past (it was a very throat-straining activity) has something to do with it.

My newest fav juice only has 6mg nicotine and is a 50/50 blend. I couldn't figure out what the problem was but I think I'm getting way less throat hit than I was at higher nic & pg levels. Is that the case or is it my imagination?

PG gives me a sore throat if I'm not careful and I'd like to get off the nicotine eventually. Is there any way around this or is it something I'll get used to?

Throat hit is nicotine. If we got that from zero nicotine vaping, we'd all do it.

PG enhances throat hit. Some flavors create the sensation of TH although some just call that a throat irritant.

Ive read that it adds a "cooling" sensation without the menthol taste. Is that right? I bought some, but havent made any juice with it yet.

I will mix something and if it seems like is missing something... I add Koolada and all is right in my vaping world. So yeah, I love it.

I've never really considered Koolada. Not sure what it is or what enhancement it offers. I've seen it listed as an option (can't remember where) but never opted for it.

You will find a lot of recipes call for Koolada. The least expensive place I found it was PA. To show you how much I like it.... I got a 4 oz. bottle. heehee

Is PG also considered a throat irritant? Or does it just enhance the TH from nicotine?

I wonder what a 0mg nic 100% PG mix would be like. Would the sensation on the throat be noticeably different from the TH provided by nicotine? I've never tried it. Although I'm sure it wouldn't produce enough vapor for my liking.

The effect of different flavors on TH I can't even begin to decipher.

I tried exhaling through my nose a couple times and the sensation made my eyes water. I'll stick with just TH.

I got a chuckle from your username. "Durian" is the pungent, foul-smelling fruit popular in Southeast Asia. I hear it tastes good though. I wonder if the liquid would mimic the smell or the taste. Is there actually a durian flavored e-liquid?

I do taste my juice better when I exhale through my nose. But yeah, it can get sort of painful too. Re the durian juice, haven't come across one yet but I sure would love to try it or make my own if I can find durian flavor concentrate. I hope it won't smell as bad LOL.
