Welcome to our extensive collection of nic salt e-liquids. Nicotine salts (nic salts) are specifically formulated to deliver a smooth throat hit alongside rapid nicotine absorption, making them the ultimate choice for ex-smokers. Our collection features fully TPD-compliant 10ml bottles in highly popular 10mg and 20mg strengths. Whether you prefer sweet fruit blends, icy menthol hits, or rich tobacco flavours, you will find exactly what you need. Perfectly paired with low-wattage Mouth-to-Lung (MTL) pod kits, you can shop from industry-leading brands like ElfLiq, Bar Juice, IVG, and SKE Crystal right here at Vapeslane.
10mg/ml nicotine salts provide a medium-strength nicotine hit. This is widely considered the perfect middle ground for vapers who want the smoothness and fast absorption of a nic salt, but find the maximum 20mg strength too intense. It's an excellent choice for moderate ex-smokers or those looking to gradually reduce their nicotine intake while maintaining excellent flavour delivery.
20mg/ml is the highest nicotine strength legally available under UK TPD regulations. It is the most common UK nic-salt strength, specifically because it closely mimics the nicotine hit of a traditional cigarette. If you are transitioning directly from smoking or you are used to the intense hit of a standard disposable vape, 20mg nic salts paired with a refillable pod kit will provide the most familiar and satisfying experience.
Understanding the difference between nic salts and freebase e-liquids is crucial for choosing the right product for your device.
| Feature | Nic Salts | Freebase |
|---|---|---|
| Nicotine format | Nicotine salt | Freebase nicotine |
| Typical strengths | 10mg, 20mg | 3mg, 6mg, 12mg, 18mg |
| Typical devices | Pod / MTL devices | Depends on strength/device |
| Bottle formats | 10ml bottles | 10ml / shortfills depending on product |
| Vape style | Lower-power MTL | MTL or DTL depending on product |
| Throat feel | Typically smoother at higher strengths | Can feel stronger at higher strengths |
Refillable pod kits are the most popular devices for nicotine salts. They are compact, easy to use, and operate at the exact low wattages required to vaporise nic salts efficiently without burning the coil.
Mouth-to-Lung (MTL) vape kits replicate the draw of a cigarette. Because nic salts are blended with a 50VG/50PG ratio, they wick perfectly in MTL tanks, delivering outstanding flavour and longevity.
Traditional, low-powered vape pens are also highly compatible with 10ml nic salts, offering a simple and accessible entry point for beginners.
Nic salts are generally associated with lower-power MTL and pod devices, while high-powered sub-ohm setups are generally designed around different e-liquid formats (like High VG shortfills) and lower nicotine strengths. Vaping high-strength 20mg nic salts in a powerful sub-ohm tank will deliver an overwhelmingly harsh and unpleasant amount of nicotine all at once, which is strongly advised against.
| Strength | General description |
|---|---|
| 10mg | Medium-strength option |
| 20mg | Higher-strength option |
The number displayed on the bottle (e.g., 20mg/ml) means there are 20 milligrams of nicotine per millilitre of e-liquid. Choosing the right strength depends heavily on your previous habits and your specific device. A 20mg strength is standard for ex-smokers and disposable users, while 10mg is a fantastic option for a milder experience.
Fruit profiles are incredibly popular, ranging from simple single-note flavours to complex tropical blends. Expect vibrant options like Strawberry, Blueberry, Raspberry, Watermelon, and Mango.
For those who prefer a refreshing kick, menthol and ice nic salts deliver a cooling sensation on the exhale, often paired with fruit bases (like Watermelon Ice or Blue Razz Ice) or standing alone as pure peppermint or spearmint.
Tobacco nic salts provide the familiar, earthy, and robust taste of roasted tobacco leaves, making them perfect for traditionalists who want an authentic experience without the smoke.
Rich and indulgent, dessert flavours replicate bakery classics like Lemon Tart, Vanilla Custard, and Strawberry Cheesecake, offering a sweeter and heavier flavour profile.
From fizzy cola and energy drink replicas to pink lemonade and iced tea, beverage nic salts are sweet, punchy, and highly sought-after.
Inspired by nostalgic confectionery, this category includes sugary profiles like Cotton Candy, Gummy Bears, and Bubblegum.
Our catalogue features the most trusted brands in the vaping industry:
Nicotine salts are a type of e-liquid designed to provide a faster, more noticeable nicotine hit while remaining remarkably smooth on the throat. Chemically, nicotine salts are created by adding a specific acid (typically benzoic or salicylate acid) to freebase nicotine. This slight chemical alteration lowers the pH level of the nicotine, which removes the harsh throat burn normally associated with high-strength freebase e-liquids.
Because they are so smooth, nic salts can be vaped comfortably at higher concentrations (like 20mg) in low-power devices. When you see "nic salt" on an e-liquid label, it guarantees that the product is optimised for quick absorption and a comfortable Mouth-to-Lung (MTL) draw.
Under the UK's Tobacco and Related Products Regulations (TRPR/TPD), strict rules govern how nicotine-containing products can be sold to consumers.
The law states that any e-liquid containing nicotine at the point of sale is legally restricted to a maximum bottle size of 10ml, and the nicotine concentration cannot exceed 20mg/ml. This is why you will always see genuine, fully-compliant nic salts sold exclusively in 10ml bottles across the UK.
To preserve the flavour and quality of your nic salts, keep the bottles tightly sealed when not in use. Store them in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Most importantly, always keep e-liquids securely out of reach of children and pets, and follow any specific storage guidance printed on the manufacturer's packaging.

Nicotine salts are e-liquids that have been chemically modified (usually with benzoic acid) to provide a smoother throat hit and faster nicotine absorption compared to standard e-liquids.
Nic salts deliver a very smooth throat hit even at high strengths (like 20mg) and absorb rapidly into the bloodstream. Freebase nicotine is harsher on the throat at high strengths and is typically preferred by vapers using lower strengths (3mg or 6mg) in sub-ohm devices.
In the UK, nic salts are most commonly available in 10mg/ml and 20mg/ml strengths. The maximum legal limit for nicotine concentration in the UK is 20mg/ml.
Nic salts perform best in low-wattage, Mouth-to-Lung (MTL) devices. Refillable pod kits and traditional vape pens are the perfect companions for nic salt e-liquids.
It is strongly advised against. Sub-ohm devices operate at high wattages and produce massive amounts of vapour. Vaping a high-strength nic salt in a sub-ohm tank will result in an overwhelmingly harsh hit and excessive nicotine intake.
Yes. Under UK law (TPD/TRPR), any pre-mixed e-liquid containing nicotine must be sold in bottles no larger than 10ml.
Nic salts are available in almost every flavour imaginable, including fruits, icy menthols, rich tobaccos, sweet desserts, and popular beverage blends.
Store your nic salts in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight. Always ensure the cap is securely tightened, and keep all e-liquids strictly out of reach of children and pets.
