Does it taste like real tobacco or a sweet version?

It is a real, unsweetened tobacco. The flavour is smoky and dry, modelled on a Cuban cigar, with a faint natural sweetness from the leaf but no added vanilla, caramel or fruit. If you want a genuine tobacco vape rather than a dessert-tobacco, this fits the bill.

What is the difference between 11mg and 20mg?

Only the nicotine level. The 20mg suits heavier smokers or anyone wanting strong craving relief, and the salt formula keeps it smooth even at that strength. The 11mg is the lighter step for a smaller habit or for gradually bringing your nicotine intake down over time.

Which device should I use it in?

A low-powered mouth-to-lung setup. Use it in a pod kit or pen device with a higher-resistance coil, around 1.0 ohm or above, and a tight, cigarette-style pull. It is a 50/50 tobacco salt, so it is not suited to big sub-ohm cloud kits.

Pod Salt | Nic Salt E-Liquid

Product Summary

Pod Salt Havana Gold delivers a rich tobacco flavour reminiscent of a Cuban cigar: smoky, robust and refined, with no sweeteners diluting it. The 10ml nic salt e-liquid comes in 11mg and 20mg nicotine strengths, and the salt nicotine formula keeps the throat hit smooth even at 20mg. Its 50/50 VG/PG blend suits mouth-to-lung vape kits, producing modest vapour with full-bodied taste. UK-made, it is aimed squarely at ex-smokers who want an authentic tobacco vape rather than a flavoured one.

Pod Salt Havana Gold is a straight tobacco vape modelled on a Cuban cigar. The flavour is deep and smoky, with a dry, woody warmth and a faint sweetness like aged cigar leaf, and nothing fruity or minty laid over the top. It is an unsweetened tobacco through and through, aimed at anyone who wants the real thing.

Strengths and format

The 10ml bottle is made in the UK and comes in 11mg and 20mg, both using nicotine salt. Salt nicotine keeps the throat hit smooth even at 20mg and settles a craving quickly, which is what an ex-smoker reaching for a strong tobacco usually wants; the 11mg is the step down for a lighter habit.

What to vape it in

Built at 50/50 VG/PG, it is made for low-powered mouth-to-lung gear, so use it in a mouth-to-lung pod kit or a plain pen device on a higher-resistance coil of about 1.0 ohm or above. A snug, cigar-style draw suits the tobacco best and keeps the vapour modest.

Who is it for?

Choose it if:

You are an ex-smoker after an honest, unsweetened tobacco rather than a dessert or fruit one.
You want a strong, smoky cigar-style flavour that works as an all-day vape.

Look elsewhere if:

You prefer a sweet or flavoured vape; this is plain, unsweetened tobacco with nothing added.
You want big clouds from a sub-ohm kit, and that means a high-VG shortfill, not a 50/50 nic salt like this one.
