Nicotine salt - a new trend in essential oils

The vaping industry has come a long way. And like any industry, some ideas are constantly evolving and improving, while others are forgotten. Subohm vaping is still popular, squonks are becoming more and more popular. Of course, it's sometimes hard to tell the difference between a gimmick and a real innovation, like the latest trend in vaping, nicotine salts.

In the previous article, we learned what salt nicotine is. In this article, we'll find out what vapers have to say about nicotine salt.

Benefits of nicotine salt.
Salt nicotine delivers more nicotine per puff, meaning that people currently using e-cigarettes to quit smoking can save a significant amount of e-liquid while still providing the smoker with a sufficient amount of nicotine.

Smokers are always looking for something that feels like a cigarette but without the unpleasant taste of cigarettes. Using salt nicotine will give them the feeling of smoking a cigarette, even in a small device.

The higher the concentration of nicotine in the essential oil, the stronger the irritation in the throat. With nicotine in salt form, this feeling is greatly reduced.

Nicotine in salt form is suitable for small devices like the Pod Mod. Users who don't like bulky devices now have another option.

Nicotine in salt form has many advantages and is currently being developed, which is a new trend for the future.

What is nicotine salt?
Most vapers and smokers have never heard of nicotine salts. But that doesn't mean they haven't been exposed to them. In fact, it is claimed that nicotine salts are the purest form of nicotine found in nature, and there is evidence to support this.

You see, we as consumers not only know nothing about nicotine in salt form, but we also have very little information about nicotine itself. And you may not know that the nicotine in cigarettes is salt nicotine.

Nicotine exists in two forms in tobacco leaves: diprotonated and monoprotonated. This means that nicotine combines with certain acids in the plant to form more stable molecules. The reaction when these two substances combine creates nicotine salts. There are many types of nicotine salts depending on the type of acid used in the combination process.

However, these nicotine salts are not found in regular cigarettes and e-liquids, which leads to the question: where can we find nicotine salts?

You can find information about the differences between regular nicotine and salt nicotine, as well as why it is popular, here.

Which brands have e-liquid with nicotine salt?
Salt nicotine is still relatively new to the vaping community, so there are still quite a few e-liquids that use this form of nicotine. Most stores haven’t yet adapted to importing large quantities of this type of e-liquid, but as demand increases, supply may increase. Here are a few companies that already carry nicotine salt e-liquid (if your store doesn’t have it, you can find it online). This may not be the best list, but it’s a place to start.

Fresh Pressed - Fresh Pressed now offers a new line of nicotine salt e-liquids, including tropical fruit flavors, fruit medley, and cake flavors. This line of e-liquids is now available at The Vape Club.

Frisco Vapor - Frisco doesn't have its own line of nicotine salt e-liquids yet, but they have revamped some of their old favorite e-liquid flavors like Fillmore, Soma, and Cali Berry with the use of salt nicotine. These three attractive e-liquids will be arriving at The Vape Club soon.

CRFT - CRFT currently offers about 9 types of nicotine salt e-liquids, most of which are fruity flavored.

In addition, there are many other reputable brands of nicotine salt essential oils, such as Dr. Salt E liquid, Airship Nicsalt, Bombies...

Can salt nicotine develop in the long term?
One thing is for sure, nicotine salts can fill a gap in the market for new products for consumers trying to quit smoking. But can it completely eliminate regular e-liquids from the market? Of course not, vaping is still a popular activity for vapers and they can't vape with nicotine salts.

Salt nicotine could have a significant market share of its own, and manufacturers are expected to begin distributing this type of e-liquid on a larger scale in 2018.
