Nicotine salt e-liquids (aka ‘nic salts’) aren’t the newest vape product on the market. They’ve actually been around for many years. But you may have noticed a recent rise in popularity, with more vapers choosing nicotine salts over traditional, freebase vape juice than ever before. In fact, in our 2023 Predictions Post, Doozy Vape Co. founder Imran Ismail called nic salts the future and predicted record sales in 2023.
This rise in popularity could be attributed to many things, including their smooth throat hit, efficient nicotine delivery or how well they pair with low-powered pod and starter kits. It may also be the fact that nic salts are the default vape juice used in disposables. All of this makes them perfect for former smokers, new vapers and disposable users who want a strong yet smooth vape.
Want to know more? From what they are to how to use them, here’s Everything You Need to Know About Nicotine Salts.
There are plenty of great nicotine salts ranges around, in almost every flavour you could imagine. If you want to try them out but aren’t sure where to start, we’ve selected some of our favourite ranges for inspiration.

The Aisu brand from Zap! Juice is known for its unique, Japanese-inspired blends. The Aisu Salt range continues this with a collection of nic salts full of Eastern influence. Based on Kaigori - a traditional shaved ice dessert, you’ll find fruity, refreshing blends with a smooth, fluffy texture.
Aisu Salts include some unusual flavours we rarely see in vape juices, such as Dragonfruit, but if you’re looking for a straight menthol or tobacco blend you won’t find it here.

Riot Squad Bar EDTN salts are available in both 10mg and 20mg options, The only downside we noticed is that all the flavours are sweet and fruit-based and don’t cater to tobacco or pure menthol flavour fans.
