Along with water its main role is to distill the other used components. The higher the VG content the better the e-liquid will taste with steeping. In ad- dition to e-liquids it is used for medical, pharma- ceutical and personal care products, for food ad- ditives and preservatives. It has the consistency of syrup and a somewhat sweet taste. 2 CONCENTRATED FLAVOR There are many flavors that simulate the taste of the popular tobacco brands as well as hundreds of exotic fla- vors which makes switching from cigarettes to vaping quite delightful.

Nicotine content in e-liquid is measured by the number of milligrams of nicotine per milliliter of liquid. So 18mg/ml means there is 18mg of nicotine for each milli- liter of liquid.

VG PG PEG400
VG is a natural, organic glycerol made from vegetable oil (usually coconut and/or palm oil). Along with water its main role is to distill the other used components. The higher the VG content the better the e-liquid will taste with steeping. In ad-dition to e-liquids it is used for medical, pharma-ceutical and personal care products, for food ad-ditives and preservatives. It has the consistency of syrup and a somewhat sweet taste.
2 CONCENTRATED FLAVOR There are many flavors that simulate the taste of the popular tobacco brands as well as hundreds of exotic fla-vors which makes switching from cigarettes to vaping quite delightful. Many flavorings in e-liquids are various food flavorings and/or additives.
3 PROPYLENEGLYCOL (PG)
PG is a synthetic organic glycerol made from animal and/or petroleum-based oils. It is virtually tasteless but helps to produce what we refer to as ‘throat hit’. It’s non-toxic and is considered generally safe for human consumption by the FDA. In addi-tion to e-liquids it is used as a diluent used in many other cosmetic and food goods.
4 POLYETHYLENEGLYCOL 400 (PEG400)
PEG400 is another synthetic organic glyc-erol. Due to its lowest toxicity and highest quality, PEG400 is widely used in a variety of pharmaceutical formulations. It provides a robust throat hit and dense vapor.
5 LIQUID NICOTINE CONCENTRATEThe concentrations of nicotine found in cigarettes and e-cigarettes is harmless and comparable to caffeine. Nicotine content in e-liquid is measured by the number of milligrams of nicotine per milliliter of liquid. So 18mg/ml means there is 18mg of nicotine for each milli-liter of liquid. While you can opt to have nicotine-free e-liquid you can also find a great choice of strengths to suit your preference.
