🧃 Choosing the Right E-Liquid for Your Vape – Flavour, Nicotine & PG/VG

With hundreds of flavours, nicotine options, and bottle sizes to choose from, finding the right e-liquid can feel overwhelming — especially if you’re new to vaping. But it doesn’t have to be.

This guide breaks down everything you need to know about choosing the perfect vape juice — from flavour and nicotine to PG/VG ratios — and how Shipwreck Vapes can help you find your match.


🍓 1. Start with Flavour – It’s Personal

Flavour is the number one reason people stick with vaping.
At Shipwreck Vapes, some of the most popular categories include:

  • 🍉 Fruits: Lychee Ice, Mango, Strawberry, Grape

  • 🍬 Candy/Desserts: Gummy Bear, Vanilla Cream, Custard

  • 🍃 Menthol/Mint: Ice Mint, Spearmint, Frosted Grape

  • Tobacco & Coffee: Turkish Blend, Hazelnut Coffee

💡 Tip: Start with something familiar — if you love watermelon candy, you’ll probably love a watermelon e-liquid.


⚖️ 2. Know Your Nicotine: Freebase vs. Salt

Freebase Nicotine

  • Smooth to moderate throat hit

  • Used in most longfill and shortfill juices

  • Ideal for sub-ohm (DTL) vaping and cloud chasing

Nicotine Salt (Nic Salts)

  • Faster nicotine absorption

  • Smoother throat hit even at high strengths

  • Best for MTL pod systems or lower-power vape pens

⚗️ 3. Understand PG/VG Ratios

Ratio Best For Feel / Use Case
70VG/30PG DTL (Direct to Lung) More vapour, smooth draw
50VG/50PG MTL (Mouth to Lung) Balanced vapour + stronger throat hit
30VG/70PG Rare, more throat hit Less vapour, more flavour sharpness

Most MTL juices are around 50/50.
Most cloud juices (longfills) are 70/30 or 80/20.


🔍 4. Bottle Size & Type

  • 30ml (Nic Salts) – Stronger nicotine, compact, ideal for pod users

  • 60ml – Great balance between size and portability

  • 120ml (Longfills) – Value-packed bottles for cloud chasers

  • Shortfills – Add your own nic shot

At Shipwreck Vapes, we carry all these sizes and formats — and we’ll help you find the right one based on your setup.
