One of the main advantages of vaping is the huge amount of flavours you can choose from. Whether you want something fruity and sweet, minty and ice-cool or anything in between, deciding on a vape juice flavour is a big deal.
Sometimes, the sheer number of flavours can be daunting. Where do you start? How do you know if you’ll like it? Well, it doesn’t have to be a hard decision if you already have an idea of what you like.
So this blog introduces you to the world of vape juice flavours, gives tips on choosing the right one, and perhaps entices you to expand your flavour palette…
What are the different vape liquid flavours?
While there are thousands of different vape juice flavours, they all broadly fall into a few distinct categories, such as fruity, menthol, tobacco and even sweet desserts. We sell hundreds of bottles of vape liquid every week, and here are our top 8 flavour profiles.
Cigarette and Tobacco
Cigarette and tobacco-flavour vape liquids replicate the taste of cigarettes, cigars, and even pipes. They’re great for people who are transitioning from tobacco products and want to keep the same taste, as well as people who’ve long quit but still love the smoky, woody flavour of traditional cigarettes. Some are even developed to mimic famous tobacco brands and flavours such as Golden Virginia or Amber Leaf.
Mint, Menthol and Ice
Cold, cooling and refreshing mint, menthol, and ice flavour vape liquids are incredibly popular. Whether you’re looking for invigorating spearmint flavours, warming peppermint or cooling ice sensations, there are hundreds to choose from. Replicating the taste of chewing gum or sweets, they refresh and excite your taste buds.
Beverage and Soda
Beverage and soda vape flavours offer the taste of your favourite drink on the go. Whether you’re a fan of sweet cola, sharp lemonade, fruity cherryade or even famous energy drinks, these vape liquids always hit the spot. They’re perfect for everyday use, especially if you have a sweet tooth and love a bit of fizz with your hit.
Fruity and Berry
Fruity vape flavours, such as summer berries, tropical bananas, or sweet apples and pears, are always popular. There’s an endless range of options to suit your specific tastes, as well as blended flavours for something truly unique. Soft flavours like banana, peach, or grape are ideal for all-day use, while something sweeter like mango, watermelon, or strawberry can be a great way to mix things up.
Citrus and Sour
Citrus and sour vape liquids are a great choice if you want something fruity but with an extra kick. Zingy, sweet and refreshing, you’ll find classic flavours like orange, lemon, lime and grapefruit, as well as unique blends and combinations to excite your taste buds. We love citrus and sour combos like pink lemonade or lemon and lime, as well as fruity creations like pineapple, mango and orange.
Bakery and Dessert
While it’s not quite stepping into a Parisian boulangerie, vape liquids in bakery and dessert flavours are very popular for a decadent, unique taste. The range of options is almost limitless, with classic desserts like apple pie, banoffee pie, rhubarb and custard, strawberries and cream, Bakewell tarts, and more all being perfectly replicated for your vape.
Aniseed and Liquorice
While not for everyone, if you love the strong and unmistakable taste of aniseed and liquorice, then there’s definitely a vape flavour for you. You’ll also find aniseed blends, such as with fruit or menthol to give a more complex and satisfying vape experience.
Sweet and Candy
Like fruity or dessert flavours, you can find hundreds of your favourite sweet and candy flavours replicated for your vape. Those with a sweet tooth are well-catered for, whether it’s candy floss (cotton candy), bubblegum, cream soda, chocolate, toffee, coffee or anything else.
What Vape Juice has the most flavour?
The vaping industry has advanced dramatically in the last 5-10 years, and modern vape flavours are incredibly realistic. There was a time when everything tasted quite artificial, but nowadays, your Strawberries & Cream vape tastes exactly like you expect it to. While this is great for all vapers, those switching from tobacco products and still wanting that familiar taste can find the switch much easier.
With the popularity (and upcoming ban) of disposable vapes, these flavours tend to be the most popular. In particular, minty, fruity and tobacco variations often have the most satisfying and complex flavours.
However, sometimes the old masters are still the best. Long-time industry leaders such as Dinner Lady, Vampire Vape, and Doozy are still some of our best sellers because they’re trusted for their authentic flavour profiles. That said, newcomers like Elf Bar’s ElfLiq and Lost Mary’s MaryLiq are also fantastic choices for a flavourful vaping experience.
Factors to consider when buying vape juice
How long does a 10ml bottle of vape juice last?
A 10ml bottle of vape juice should last about a week with five vape pod (2ml) refills. You get roughly 600 puffs from a 2ml pod, so a 10ml bottle will give you around 3000. For context, most disposable vapes last for around 600 puffs, so you get roughly five disposables from a 10ml bottle.
What if I don't like the flavour?
We’re pretty confident in our vape juice flavours, but of course, everyone is different! One of the best ways to expand your flavour palette and try new things is to take advantage of our multi-buy deals. This way, you can mix and match flavours until you find the perfect taste without spending too much.
Another way is to try flavours that are similar but different to ones you know you like. For example, if you like citrus flavours like orange or lemon, a fruity mango or watermelon flavour will not be too different.
Can I get a flavour in a bigger bottle?
Yes, our 50/50 shortfills are a great choice if you already have a favourite vape flavour. Available in larger 100ml bottles, they’re balanced in a 50/50 VG/PG ratio for a smooth vaping experience. Not only do they last longer and are more economical, but they’re also available in all popular flavours.
Finally, because you add the nic shots yourself, you can perfectly tailor your nicotine levels to your needs. Typically up to 6mg in strength, they’re perfect for pod vape kits, just like your favourite nicotine salt juices.
