What Are IVG Nic Salts?
IVG nic salts are premium bottled e-liquids formulated with nicotine salt rather than traditional freebase nicotine. This advanced formulation allows higher nicotine concentrations while maintaining smooth throat hits, making them particularly effective for smokers making the switch to vaping. The smooth delivery and faster absorption provide satisfying nicotine hits without harshness.
What's The Difference Between IVG Nic Salts And Regular E-Liquid?
IVG nic salts use nicotine salt formulation that delivers smoother throat hits at higher strengths (10mg-20mg) compared to freebase nicotine. Nicotine salts also absorb faster into the bloodstream, providing quicker satisfaction similar to traditional cigarettes.
Regular freebase nicotine e-liquids work better at lower strengths (3mg-6mg) and suit sub-ohm vaping with high-VG shortfill e-liquids. They produce larger vapour clouds but can feel harsh at the higher nicotine concentrations that ex-smokers often need.

Compatible Devices For IVG E-Liquid
IVG nic salts work best in specific device types designed for higher-resistance vaping:
- Refillable Pod Vape Kits - Pod systems like those in our vape kits collection or our IVG vape kits work perfectly with IVG salts. These compact devices feature refillable pods or cartridges that accept bottled e-liquid.
- MTL Vape Starter Kits - Entry-level vape starter kits with mouth-to-lung draw activation suit IVG e-liquid perfectly. Look for devices marketed for new vapers or ex-smokers.
- Pod Systems With Coils Above 1.0Ω - Devices using higher-resistance coils (1.0Ω - 1.8Ω) operate at lower wattages suitable for nicotine salts. Check your coil specifications before filling.
- MTL Tanks - Traditional mouth-to-lung tanks paired with regulated mods work well when set to appropriate wattages (10-15W typically).
Not Suitable For: Sub-ohm tanks requiring high-VG shortfill e-liquids, DTL devices with coils below 0.5Ω, high-powered advanced vape kits, or any device marketed for cloud chasing.
Types Of IVG Nic Salts
The IVG e-liquid collection includes two distinct ranges: IVG Intense nic salts and the original IVG Salts:
- IVG Original Salts - Classic formulations with subtle, traditional profiles. Includes 5 flavours: Blueberry Twist, Honey Crunch, Orangeade, Strawberry Jam Yoghurt, and Strawberry Sensation. More understated sweetness levels, ideal for vapers who prefer straightforward flavours without overwhelming intensity.
- IVG Intense Nic Salts - Premium tier featuring intensified flavour profiles and enhanced sweetness. Contains 30+ flavours including Frozen Cherries, Summer Blaze, Tropical Ice, and Strawberry Watermelon. Bold taste experiences with smooth throat hits, perfect for those who enjoy disposable vape flavours or want maximum flavour intensity.
Both ranges use premium ingredients, undergo rigorous quality testing, and comply with UK TPD regulations and MHRA approval.
IVG Nic Salt VG/PG Ratio
All IVG salts feature a 50/50 VG/PG blend, providing the ideal balance for mouth-to-lung vaping. This precise ratio delivers:
- Optimal Flavour Delivery - The 50% propylene glycol content carries flavour compounds effectively, ensuring authentic taste experiences from first puff to last. PG acts as a flavour carrier, providing clarity and intensity.
- Moderate Throat Hit - The balanced formulation provides satisfying throat sensations without harshness, particularly important when vaping higher nicotine concentrations like 20mg. This mimics the throat hit of cigarettes.
- Consistent Performance - 50/50 blends work reliably in pod systems and starter kits, preventing issues like flooding or dry hits that can occur with incorrect VG/PG ratios.
- Smooth Vapour Production - While not producing massive clouds like high-VG liquids, 50/50 e-liquids generate discreet vapour suitable for everyday use without drawing excessive attention.
This ratio makes IVG nic salts perfect for refillable pod vape kits and MTL devices with coils rated 1.0Ω or higher.
Which IVG e-Liquid Nicotine Strength Should I Choose?
IVG salts are available in two carefully calibrated concentrations:
- 20mg Nicotine Salt (2%) - The standard strength suitable for heavy smokers or those requiring substantial nicotine satisfaction. This strength delivers rapid absorption and satisfying throat hits without harshness thanks to nicotine salt formulation.
- 10mg Nicotine Salt (1%) - Medium strength suited to light-to-moderate smokers or those reducing nicotine intake gradually. Offers gentler throat sensations while maintaining effective nicotine delivery.
The nicotine salt formulation in both strengths ensures smooth inhalation at concentrations that would be harsh with traditional freebase nicotine. If you're unsure, start with 20mg and step down to 10mg later if needed.
