Best Tobacco E-Liquid UK: Strength, Brand & Flavour Notes
When you're transitioning from smoking to vaping, it's natural to want to replicate the experience as much as possible. Tobacco vape juice gives you the infamous taste without carbon monoxide and tar... but which e-liquid is right for you?
With so many to choose from, choosing one is no easy feat. But we've simplified the decision for you with this guide. Find out the best tobacco e-liquid based on nicotine strength, brand, and flavour.
Why Choose Tobacco Flavour E-Liquid?
Tobacco-flavoured e-liquid is a popular choice for ex-smokers as it simplifies the transition from cigarettes.
While one of the main benefits associated with vaping is its many flavour variations, tobacco vape juice is an easy way to get used to vaping, because it replicates the experience.
In fact, many people find that using tobacco vape juice elevates their experience, because the chemicals found in traditional cigarettes can mask the woody and nutty notes.
Understanding Tobacco Vape Juice Flavours
Instead of tasting like cigarettes, e-liquid brands create tobacco blends that replicate the natural flavour of tobacco leaves. So, let's explore the different types of vape juices available.
Traditional Tobacco
Traditional tobacco e-liquids are all about delivering a familiar taste. For many former smokers, they're a go-to choice, combining earthy and smoky flavour notes. Popular options include 88Vape Maiden's Tobacco, which we blended to ensure our new vapers enjoy a smooth transition from smoking.
We also stock Smooth Western by Vampire Vape, another recreation of popular cigarette brands.
Rolling Tobacco
If you're a former smoker, you've probably tried both cigarettes and rolling tobacco. The latter is known for its richer taste, because it doesn't contain the added flavours associated with cigarette brands. For this reason, e-liquids that replicate the taste of rolling tobacco tend to have a more distinct flavour.
Our Rolling Tobacco blend delivers a powerful throat hit and the iconic toasted flavours associated with popular producers.
Nutty Tobacco
Tobacco leaves have different flavour profiles based on the brand and growing conditions. Many people notice that tobacco has a subtle, nutty taste that adds depth and warmth without being overpowering.
So, we decided to recreate and elevate the subtle undertones in our Tobacco Nut vape juice. Think bold flavours with earthy notes, and you'll soon see why it's one of our bestsellers.
Sweet Tobacco
These vape juices are the perfect compromise if you're not ready to give up tobacco flavours but want to sample some sweeter e-liquids too. These blends combine the rich taste of tobacco with sweetness, creating a blend that will keep your taste buds happy.
If you're looking for a traditional 10ml e-liquid, we recommend Vampire Vape's Sweet Tobacco blend. But our collection of shortfills includes Sweet Tobacco and Coffee Tobacco flavours.
Menthol Tobacco
Last but definitely not least, we have menthol blends. These are incredibly popular with former smokers after the 2020 ban on menthol cigarettes. When you quit smoking, you can relieve those refreshing puffs thanks to our Menthol Tobacco e-liquid.
Each puff delivers an instant cooling sensation, with woody and caramel undertones.
What's the Best Nicotine Strength?
When choosing tobacco e-liquids, it's essential to consider the strength, which depends on your prior smoking habits.
Go too high, and you'll find the tobacco liquid too overwhelming, which can impact your experience. But if you go too low, you might find that vaping doesn't satisfy your nicotine cravings.
20mg Nicotine Salts
If you're new to vaping and were a heavy smoker, opting for a 20mg blend will curb your cravings and simplify the transition. It's also worth exploring tobacco-flavoured nicotine salt vape juices, as they offer a smoother throat hit and are absorbed by the blood more quickly.
11mg to 16mg Freebase Nicotine
If you were a moderate smoker and have a refillable pod or starter pen, choosing an 11mg to 16mg freebase nicotine e-liquid gives you a powerful throat hit. Many people associate the sensation with smoking, and you can gradually decrease your levels.
3mg to 6mg Nicotine
Light smokers or vapers who have gradually cut down their nicotine intake usually find that 3mg to 6mg blends are enough to reduce their cravings. You get all of the flavour, without an overpowering nicotine hit.
Nicotine-Free Options
Once you're no longer reliant on tobacco, you can still enjoy the vaping experience without any nicotine. Most of these vape juices are shortfill e-liquids, which are customisable with nicotine shots.
Freebase vs Nicotine Salt Tobacco E-Liquid
Both freebase nicotine and nic salt vape juices deliver the taste of classic tobacco, but they offer different experiences. For example, freebase nicotine is the traditional form, which means it delivers a robust throat hit that feels similar to smoking.
Nicotine salts are produced to deliver nicotine quickly, which can satisfy your cravings. They also have a smoother throat hit, which can be beneficial if you want to enjoy the tobacco flavour with no harshness.
What to Consider When Choosing a Tobacco Vape Juice
There are plenty of tobacco vape juices to explore, but the right one for you depends on your flavour preferences, whether you're a mouth-to-lung or direct-to-lung vaper, and your nicotine needs.
We recommend checking reviews and seeing which vape juices offer the most authentic flavours. For example, you might prefer menthol flavours, nutty notes, or traditional tobacco that mimics the taste of cigarettes.
No matter what you're looking for, you'll find plenty of options available with 88Vape.
