E-liquids
One of the most important aspects of vaping is unquestionably e-juice. The type of e-liquid that you fill in your tank will significantly determine the type of vaping experience you will enjoy.

There are several critical factors necessary for an e-liquid to be considered truly “premium.” Of utmost importance are the ingredients that go into it. Vapor Authority will only consider e-juices made with 100% USA-made ingredients, and will never carry a line that has any imported substances whatsoever. In addition, the quality of the ingredients must also be superior in order for an e-liquid to be of the standard required for Vapor Authority to carry it on our website. Only food-grade and pharmaceutical-grade ingredients are acceptable, as we will simply not offer anything but the very best to our customers.
The next critical factor that determines the quality of a premium e-juice is the meticulous balance of flavors that makes up the profile. A master e-liquid crafter is capable of harmonizing the delicate intricacies associated with the inhale and exhale, both of which are highly important. Ensuring that no single flavor overpowers the others, but rather compliments one another is an exceedingly difficult task, and one that can only be accomplished by the most skilled e-juice mixologists.
The primary ingredients contained within e-liquid are vegetable glycerin (VG), propylene glycol (PG), flavoring, and nicotine. Of course, 0mg e-liquids do not contain any nicotine. Determining the best consistency for you rests on certain factors.
PG: The acronym "PG" stands for Propylene Glycol. Propylene Glycol is an organic compound that is odorless and virtually tasteless, although some claim that it has a very faint sweet taste to it.
VG: The acronym "VG" stands for Vegetable Glycerin. Vegetable Glycerine is a simple sugar compound that is odorless and has a slightly sweet taste to it. VG is widely used in pharmaceutical applications as well as many food products.
PG vs VG: Vegetable Glycerine tends to be much thicker in texture than Propylene Glycol. Although this consistency tends to provide thicker vapor clouds, it is also known to clog atomizer coils much faster than PG, which is much less viscous than VG. As a result, the majority of e-liquids contain some balance of PG-to-VG, so that the liquid provides a thick vapor cloud without clogging the atomizer heads too rapidly. However, a very small section of electronic cigarette users have an allergy to PG, and are therefore forced to use 100% VG e-liquids.
E-liquids with higher levels of propylene glycol tend to provide a more substantial “throat hit,” which is a critical criterion for those who are turning to vaping as an alternative to cigarettes. Higher VG e-liquids, on the other hand, are smoother and tend to deliver a substantially less prominent throat hit. For this reason, higher PG e-liquids are recommended for those seeking an alternative to smoking, while VG-dominant e-juices are advised for hobbyists who value flavor and vapor production.
In addition, the type of tank and coil you are using is an important factor when determining whether you should purchase higher VG or higher PG e-liquids. Beginner setups tend to contain smaller atomizer coils and less powerful batteries. As a result, they will have a difficult time adequately vaporizing VG-dominant e-juices. More powerful devices, particularly those furnished with sub-ohm atomizer coils, however, are more equipped to handle the thicker consistency of high-VG e-liquids.
