Deliciu Wild Apple & Hawthorn 20mg Nic Salt Overview

Deliciu Nic Salt by Vaporesso in Wild Apple & Hawthorn is a 20mg nicotine salt e-liquid made for pod kits and other low-powered, mouth-to-lung devices. Deliciu is the e-liquid range sold under the Vaporesso name, a company best known for its pod systems and coil technology, so the juice is formulated with that style of hardware in mind: small coils, modest wattage, a snug draw and a quick, smooth nicotine delivery. This listing is for the 20mg strength, which is the highest nicotine level that can legally be sold in a UK e-liquid bottle.

The flavour sits in the fruit category, but it is not a plain single-note apple. Pairing apple with hawthorn gives a two-part profile. The front of the inhale is crisp and slightly sharp, like a freshly cut orchard apple, while the back end carries a softer, tart and faintly floral berry character that comes from the hawthorn. If you have mostly vaped sweet candy or dessert blends, this one reads as lighter and more natural, closer to an orchard than a sweet shop.

This page walks through everything worth knowing before you buy: how the flavour behaves from first puff to last, what throat hit to expect at 20mg, which devices and coils suit the liquid, how to fill and look after your kit, what to do when something goes wrong, and how it compares with other nic salts in the same price band. We have kept the specifications honest. Where a figure is standard for the category, such as the 10ml bottle size that UK rules require for nicotine e-liquid, we say so. Where something depends on your device or on the batch printed on the bottle, we tell you to check the label rather than guess.

  • Product type: nicotine salt e-liquid for refillable pod kits and compatible low-wattage devices
  • Brand and range: Deliciu, sold under the Vaporesso name
  • Flavour: Wild Apple & Hawthorn (fruit)
  • Nicotine strength: 20mg/ml, the UK maximum
  • Typical bottle size: 10ml, the UK limit for nicotine e-liquid containers
  • Best suited to: mouth-to-lung pod devices and low-power coils

As with every nicotine product, this is for adults only. It is intended for existing smokers and vapers, not for anyone who has never used nicotine, and it should be kept out of reach of children and pets.

What Wild Apple & Hawthorn Actually Tastes Like

Flavour descriptions in vaping can drift into marketing language, so here is a grounded way to think about this one. The apple is the headline, and it leans towards a green or tart eating apple rather than a baked or candied one. You get a clean, juicy start on the inhale that is more refreshing than sugary. On the exhale, the hawthorn comes through. Hawthorn berries, as a real fruit, are mild, slightly mealy, a little tannic and gently sweet, with a faint floral edge. In an e-liquid that translates into a rounded, lightly tart finish that stops the apple from tasting flat or one-dimensional.

The overall effect is a fruit profile with some depth and a dry-ish, natural finish. It is not an ice flavour, so you should not expect a cold blast on the inhale. If your usual choice is a menthol or ice-heavy juice, this will taste warmer and softer by comparison. If you like a hint of coolness, some vapers add a drop of a separate menthol shot in a separate tank, but we would not recommend mixing anything into a sealed nic salt bottle because it alters the nicotine concentration and the intended balance of the recipe.

Sweetness sits in the middle of the range. Because nicotine salts are usually vaped at low power, the sweetness does not caramelise or build up on the coil as quickly as it can in high-wattage sub-ohm setups, which helps keep the flavour consistent across a tank or pod. Some people find that fruit juices with a sweetener-heavy recipe leave a sticky film in the mouth after a long session. A tart-led fruit like this tends to feel cleaner, although individual taste varies and flavour perception is subjective.

A few practical notes on how the flavour changes over time and with technique:

  • First few puffs on a fresh coil: the apple is at its most vivid and the hawthorn is quieter.
  • Mid-pod: the two notes balance out and the tartness softens slightly.
  • Slower, cooler draws: bring out the floral hawthorn finish.
  • Faster, longer draws: push the apple forward and increase vapour warmth.
  • Vaping hot or at the top of the wattage range: flattens the tartness and can make the profile taste more generic and sweeter.

If you switch between several flavours in one device, rinse the pod or tank and swap the coil when you change profile. Fruit liquids that contain tart notes are especially vulnerable to being muddied by leftover residue from a previous cream, custard or tobacco flavour.

Throat Hit and Vapour Delivery at 20mg Nic Salt

Nicotine salt e-liquid differs from freebase nicotine in how it feels. Freebase nicotine, used in most traditional 3mg or 6mg juices, has a sharper, harsher throat hit at higher strengths. Nicotine salts are formulated with an added acid, which lowers the pH and allows a higher nicotine concentration to be inhaled with a noticeably smoother feel. That is why you will see nic salts sold at 10mg and 20mg while freebase juices usually stop at 6mg or 12mg for comfortable use.

At 20mg/ml, this e-liquid delivers a firm but rounded throat hit. It is not the soft puff of a 10mg salt, and it is certainly not the harshness of a high-strength freebase, but you will feel it at the back of the throat, particularly on a long draw or a first puff after a break. Most people who choose 20mg are coming from cigarettes or from a disposable vape and want an experience that satisfies cravings in fewer puffs. If you vape frequently and take big, long draws, you may find 20mg is more than you need, and a 10mg salt gives a gentler experience over the same session.

Vapour production on a typical pod kit is moderate. Nicotine salts are generally mixed at a balanced propylene glycol to vegetable glycerine ratio, often around 50/50, although you should always check the label on your own bottle for the exact ratio. A more balanced mix works well with the small cotton wicks found in pod coils, because it is thin enough to wick reliably while still producing a satisfying cloud for a mouth-to-lung style. Do not expect the huge plumes that a sub-ohm tank produces. That is a different type of vaping with a different type of liquid.

What to expect on a normal day of use:

  • Throat hit: medium to strong, depending on your draw length and device airflow.
  • Vapour volume: modest, suited to discreet use.
  • Nicotine satisfaction: relatively quick, which is the main reason people choose salts.
  • Aftertaste: light and slightly dry thanks to the hawthorn note.

It is worth remembering that nicotine is addictive, and that a fast, smooth hit makes it easy to take more than you intended. Pace yourself and track how often you refill. If you find you are filling a pod several times a day and feeling lightheaded or queasy, step down to a lower strength.

Bottle, Packaging and Liquid Specification

Nicotine e-liquid sold in the UK is limited to bottles of 10ml or less, and this product follows that standard. Bottles for this kind of product are normally plastic with a narrow, pointed nozzle designed to fit into the fill port of a pod, and a tamper-evident, child-resistant cap. The narrow tip is important, because pod fill ports are small and a thick nozzle will cause spills and leaks onto the electronics. Our advice is to always check the cap seal is intact when you receive the bottle, and to report any damage promptly.

On the label you should find the following information, which you can use to verify what you are buying:

  • Nicotine strength in mg/ml, which for this listing is 20mg/ml
  • Volume in ml
  • Ingredient list, including the PG and VG content
  • Batch number and best-before date
  • Health warning and the manufacturer or importer contact details
  • Tactile warning triangle on the bottle for visually impaired users, where applicable

The ingredients in a nic salt e-liquid are generally propylene glycol, vegetable glycerine, nicotine (as a salt, bound with an acid such as benzoic acid), and flavourings. The flavourings are what make Wild Apple & Hawthorn taste the way it does, and the specific recipe is proprietary. If you have a known sensitivity to propylene glycol or to particular flavouring compounds, read the label carefully and speak to a pharmacist or doctor before use.

Storage matters more than most people realise. Nicotine and flavourings both degrade with exposure to light, heat and air. Keep the bottle upright, tightly closed, in a cool, dark place such as a drawer or cupboard, and not on a windowsill, in a hot car or in a bag next to a radiator. Stored well, an unopened bottle will normally stay in good condition until the printed best-before date, and an opened bottle will taste its best if used within a few months. If the colour darkens significantly or the aroma changes, that is a sign the liquid has oxidised and it is better to replace it.

When the bottle is empty, rinse it if your local council guidance allows and check how your area treats small plastic containers. Many councils accept clean empty plastic bottles in kerbside recycling, but some do not accept bottles that held nicotine products, so check locally. Do not pour leftover liquid down a drain or into the household bin. Take any remnants to a household waste recycling centre.

Which Devices Suit This E-Liquid

Because this is a 20mg nic salt, it is meant for low-powered devices. Using it in a high-wattage sub-ohm tank would deliver a massive dose of nicotine in very few puffs and is likely to cause nausea, dizziness and a harsh throat hit. The right hardware category is the mouth-to-lung pod system or a low-wattage pen-style kit, where the coil resistance is typically between about 0.7 and 1.2 ohms and the power sits somewhere between roughly 8 and 25 watts.

Since Deliciu is sold under the Vaporesso name, many buyers pair it with Vaporesso pod kits, and that is a sensible match, but the liquid is not locked to one brand. A nic salt designed for pod devices will work in most refillable pod systems, provided the pod fill port accepts a standard bottle nozzle and the coil is rated for nic salts. As a quick compatibility checklist:

  • Refillable pod kits: the natural home for this liquid. Look for a coil resistance of 0.8 to 1.2 ohms for a tight, flavourful draw.
  • Closed pod systems with proprietary pods: only suitable if you buy a refillable pod from the same family. Do not try to force liquid into a sealed cartridge.
  • Pen-style kits with replaceable coils: work well at low wattage with a coil rated for salts.
  • Sub-ohm tanks and high-wattage mods: not appropriate for 20mg salt. Use a lower-strength liquid in these devices.
  • Disposable vapes: not refillable, so this liquid cannot be used in them. UK disposables are also limited to 20mg/ml nicotine, which is the same ceiling that applies to this bottle.

Build quality varies between kits, but a few physical features are worth checking before you fill. The pod should click firmly into the body with no wobble. The fill port plug should be a snug silicone bung that seats flush. The airflow slot should be clean and free of residue. The contacts between the pod and the battery section should be dry and intact. Small details like these determine whether a device leaks, and a leaking pod wastes both liquid and money.

If you are unsure whether your existing kit is suitable, check the manufacturer's recommended nicotine and liquid type in the manual. Most modern refillable pod kits state clearly whether they are designed for salts, freebase or both.

Coils, Resistance and Why They Matter for Nic Salts

The coil is where the liquid becomes vapour, so choosing the right coil has a direct effect on flavour, nicotine delivery and how long a bottle lasts. With a 20mg salt, you want a coil that heats gently and evenly. Typical choices are meshed coils and standard round-wire coils in the range of roughly 0.8 to 1.2 ohms. Higher resistance coils draw less power and produce a tighter, warmer vapour that suits a mouth-to-lung inhale and conserves both battery and liquid.

Mesh coils, which many current Vaporesso pod coils use, spread the heating surface across a wide area of a flat mesh instead of a single wire running through cotton. This usually means faster ramp-up, more consistent flavour from puff to puff and less chance of dry or burnt spots, although the exact performance depends on the specific coil model. Standard wire coils with cotton wicks are simpler and tend to be cheaper, but they can be less forgiving if the wick is not fully saturated. For a delicate tart fruit flavour such as this one, the extra evenness of a mesh coil is a practical advantage, because uneven heating is the quickest way to flatten the hawthorn note.

Here is how coil choice generally affects the experience:

  • Around 1.0 to 1.2 ohm: tighter draw, lower power, longer coil life and good nicotine delivery per puff. A strong match for 20mg salts.
  • Around 0.8 ohm: a slightly airier draw with a bit more vapour and warmth. Works well if your device has adjustable power and you stay on the lower settings.
  • Below 0.6 ohm: geared towards higher power and thinner liquids. Not recommended for 20mg salt because the dose per puff becomes too high.

Priming is the step that decides whether a new coil lasts or burns out in a day. After fitting a fresh coil, add liquid to the pod, wait at least five to ten minutes so the cotton can soak up the liquid fully, and take a couple of gentle draws without pressing the button, or at the lowest power setting, before vaping normally. Skipping this step can cause a dry hit, which tastes burnt and permanently damages the wick.

As a general guide, a coil used with a sweet, tart fruit salt like this often lasts somewhere between one and three weeks of regular use, depending on how often you vape and how much power you use. Signs that a coil is nearing the end include a muted flavour, a faint burnt taste, gurgling, or a noticeably weaker throat hit. Replace it promptly rather than trying to push through, because a tired coil wastes liquid without delivering the flavour you paid for.

Battery, Charging and Power Settings on Pod Kits

The e-liquid itself has no battery, so the battery considerations here relate to the device you pair it with. Pod kits made for nic salts typically include an internal battery somewhere in the region of 400 to 1,000mAh, and the capacity should be printed in the specifications for your particular kit. Capacity matters, but so does how you use it. A device with an 800mAh battery running a 1.0 ohm coil at low power will last far longer than the same battery driving a 0.6 ohm coil at higher wattage.

To get the most from your device and your liquid, follow these basic habits:

  • Use the cable and charger supplied or a reputable USB charger of matching specification. Cheap unbranded chargers can overheat or deliver inconsistent current.
  • Do not leave a device charging overnight or unattended. Lithium batteries are safe in normal use but should always be supervised during charging.
  • Charge before the battery is completely flat where possible. Frequent deep discharge shortens battery life over time.
  • Keep the charging port dry and clear. Liquid in the port is a common cause of charging faults, so wipe away any spills before connecting a cable.
  • Avoid extremes of temperature. Do not leave the device in a hot car or in freezing conditions.

Power settings on adjustable kits should be kept at the lower end for a 20mg salt. A good starting point is the manufacturer's recommended range for the coil you have fitted. If you raise the wattage the vapour becomes warmer and thicker, the nicotine hit per puff increases, and the liquid is consumed faster. Because Wild Apple & Hawthorn is a delicate fruit profile, running it hot tends to flatten the tartness, so stay modest and adjust in small steps.

When a device reaches the end of its life, do not put it in a household bin. Vapes, pods and rechargeable batteries contain lithium cells that can cause fires in bin lorries and recycling plants. In the UK you can take them to household waste recycling centres, and many retailers that sell vaping products operate take-back or drop-off points for used devices and batteries. Check your local council's website or ask the shop where you bought it. Empty pods with the coil still attached usually count as electrical waste, so keep them out of the general recycling stream as well.

Choosing Your Nicotine Strength: 20mg and the Alternatives

Picking the right nicotine strength is the single most important choice you make with a nic salt, and it is where most people go wrong. This listing is specifically the 20mg/ml option, which is the upper limit for nicotine e-liquid sold in the UK. Because nic salts are absorbed quickly and feel smooth, a 20mg salt can deliver a significant amount of nicotine without seeming harsh, so it is easy to overdo.

As rough guidance, which is not medical advice:

  • 20mg salt: aimed at heavier smokers, typically people who smoked a pack a day or close to it, and people moving over from a disposable vape that was at the UK 20mg limit. It also suits those who vape only a few times a day and want each session to be quick and effective.
  • 10mg to 12mg salt: aimed at lighter smokers, social smokers, or people who have already stepped down. It suits longer, more frequent sessions without overshooting.
  • 5mg or lower: aimed at those weaning off nicotine, or at vapers using larger, more airy devices that deliver a lot of vapour per puff.

The device matters as much as the number on the bottle. A tight-draw pod kit at low power delivers less liquid per puff than a loose-draw, higher-power setup, so 20mg in a restrictive pod feels different from 20mg in a very airy device. If you are unsure, it is usually better to start one step lower and move up if you find you are not satisfied, because it is far easier to increase than to deal with the unpleasant effects of too much nicotine.

Signs you may be using too high a strength include a racing heartbeat, lightheadedness, nausea, headache, sweating, or a burning sensation in the throat that does not settle. If you experience these, stop vaping, drink some water, get some fresh air, and consider moving down to a lower strength. If symptoms are severe or persist, seek medical advice.

If your goal is to reduce or quit nicotine over time, a stepped approach works well. Many people begin on 20mg, move to 10mg after a few weeks, then to 5mg and eventually to nicotine-free liquid if they want to. Your local stop smoking service, pharmacist or GP can give personalised advice and may offer free support. This page is for information only and does not replace that advice.

Who This E-Liquid Is For and Who Should Skip It

Wild Apple & Hawthorn 20mg is a focused product, so it suits some people very well and others not at all. The aim of this section is to help you decide quickly, before you spend money on a bottle that does not fit your habits.

It is a reasonable choice if you:

  • Are an adult smoker or established vaper who needs a higher nicotine level to feel satisfied.
  • Use a refillable pod kit or low-wattage device with a coil rated for salts.
  • Prefer fruit flavours that are tart and natural rather than sugary or dessert-like.
  • Want a smooth throat hit at a strength that would be harsh in freebase form.
  • Are moving from a 20mg disposable and want a refillable setup with a bigger choice of flavour.

You should probably skip it, or choose another strength, if you:

  • Have never smoked or used nicotine. Vaping is not recommended for non-smokers, and nicotine is addictive.
  • Are under 18. It is illegal to sell nicotine vaping products to under-18s in the UK, and we will not knowingly do so.
  • Are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a heart condition, unless you have taken advice from a medical professional.
  • Use a high-wattage sub-ohm device, which is built for low-strength freebase liquid.
  • Dislike tart or slightly dry fruit finishes. If you want a sweet, heavy dessert profile, this is unlikely to be what you are after.
  • Are already sensitive to nicotine and find 20mg too strong. A 10mg option will suit you better.

For people who are curious about vaping but do not currently smoke, the honest answer is not to start. Official UK health guidance describes vaping as far less harmful than smoking for adults who already smoke, but it is not risk-free, and the long-term effects are still being studied. The best use of a product like this is as a tool for adult smokers who want to move away from tobacco, not as a recreational habit for people with no nicotine history.

How to Fill and Use Your Device

Filling a pod is simple once you have done it a couple of times, but small mistakes cause most of the leaks and flooded coils people complain about. Follow these steps for a clean fill and consistent flavour.

  • Step 1: Switch off and remove the pod. Take the pod out of the battery section. Never fill while it is connected, because spilled liquid can reach the contacts.
  • Step 2: Open the fill port. Pull back or lift the silicone bung according to your kit design. Keep the pod upright.
  • Step 3: Fill slowly. Place the bottle nozzle against the side of the fill port and squeeze gently. Stop just below the maximum line. Overfilling forces liquid into the airflow channel and causes leaks.
  • Step 4: Close the port. Make sure the bung is fully seated and flush. A loose bung is the most common source of seeping.
  • Step 5: Wait. Leave the filled pod standing for five to ten minutes so the cotton can soak up the liquid before the first draw.
  • Step 6: Take gentle first puffs. Use a few short draws at low power to confirm everything is saturated, then vape normally.

Technique makes a noticeable difference to your experience. Mouth-to-lung means you draw the vapour into your mouth first, pause briefly, then inhale into your lungs. A slow, steady draw of two to four seconds is usually enough for a pod kit. Longer, harder pulls tend to produce a hotter vapour and use up the pod quickly. If your device is draw-activated, you simply inhale. If it has a button, press and hold only while inhaling, and release as soon as you finish.

A few additional habits keep things running smoothly:

  • Keep the device upright when not in use, or store it with the mouthpiece pointing upwards.
  • Wipe the mouthpiece and the charging port regularly with a dry tissue.
  • Do not top up a pod that has been sitting for weeks without cleaning it first.
  • Change the liquid and the pod if you find a stale or off taste.
  • Take care when travelling by air. Pressure changes can push liquid out of the pod, so empty or seal it for flights.

Never swallow the liquid, and if any gets on your skin, wash it off with soap and water. In the event of accidental ingestion or contact with eyes, seek medical help immediately and show the bottle label.

Troubleshooting Common Problems

Most problems with nic salt vaping come down to a handful of causes, and almost all of them can be fixed at home in a few minutes. Work through the situation that matches yours.

  • Burnt or dry taste: usually a coil that was not primed, a pod that has run low on liquid, or power set too high. Refill, wait ten minutes, lower the power, and if the burnt taste persists, replace the coil.
  • Weak or muted flavour: often a worn coil, or flavour fatigue after using the same profile for a long time. Swap the coil, rinse the pod, and try a different flavour for a day or two to reset your palate.
  • Gurgling or spitting: too much liquid in the airflow channel or a flooded coil. Remove the pod, blow gently through the mouthpiece with the airflow open to clear the excess, and wipe away what comes out. Avoid filling right to the top next time.
  • Leaking from the pod: check that the fill bung is seated, the pod is not cracked, and the coil is screwed or pressed in firmly. Warm environments and altitude changes can also cause leaks, so keep the device upright and cool.
  • Device will not fire: check the battery level, clean the contacts between pod and battery with a dry cotton bud, and confirm that the pod is seated correctly.
  • Throat hit feels too harsh: shorten the draw, open the airflow slightly if it is adjustable, or step down to a lower nicotine strength.
  • Dizziness or nausea: take a break, drink water, and consider a lower strength. Do not vape on an empty stomach if it affects you.
  • Sticky residue on the device: wipe with a slightly damp cloth, dry thoroughly, and check for a slow leak.

If you have tried these fixes and the device still misbehaves, the problem may be with the hardware rather than the liquid. Contact the device manufacturer or the retailer where you bought the kit. For issues with the liquid itself, such as a smell that seems wrong, a bottle that arrived damaged, or an unexpected colour, stop using it, keep the packaging and batch number, and get in touch with us so we can investigate.

Finally, remember that a faulty or damaged item is treated differently from a change of mind. Your statutory rights as a UK consumer apply to goods that are not as described or arrive damaged, and we will work with you to resolve any genuine problem as quickly as we can.

Value for Money and How It Compares With Similar Nic Salts

Value in vaping is a combination of the price of the bottle, how long it lasts, and how well the whole setup suits you. A 10ml bottle of nic salt is a small volume, so it is worth understanding how far it goes before you decide whether the price makes sense for you.

A rough rule of thumb is that 10ml of nic salt will last a moderate vaper somewhere between three and seven days in a typical pod kit, although the real figure depends on your coil, your power setting, the length of your draws and how often you vape. Heavy users who vape throughout the day may go through a bottle in two to three days, while lighter or occasional users could stretch it to a fortnight. Because this is a 20mg liquid, you often use less volume than you would with a low-strength freebase, since nicotine is satisfied faster and sessions are shorter.

To understand what you really spend, compare against the alternatives:

  • Cigarettes: for a pack-a-day smoker, the weekly cost of tobacco is usually considerably higher than the weekly cost of a couple of bottles of e-liquid plus coils.
  • Disposable vapes: convenient but generally more expensive per puff, and they create more waste because the whole device is thrown away. Refillable kits with nic salt cost less over time.
  • Premium boutique nic salts: some brands sell at noticeably higher prices per 10ml, often for more elaborate flavour layering. Deliciu sits in the mainstream pod-juice range.

Remember to include the cost of coils and pods in your calculation. A coil costing a few pounds and lasting one to three weeks adds a modest running cost, but it is a real part of the budget. Buying multi-packs of coils or choosing a mesh coil that lasts longer can reduce the cost per day.

If you want to keep costs down, a few habits help: buy several bottles together to spread delivery costs, keep to the lower power settings so your coil lasts longer, store the liquid correctly so it does not spoil, and avoid constantly switching flavours, which leads to half-used bottles sitting around. Check current prices on this page, as they can change, and look for multi-buy offers where available.

No single e-liquid is right for everyone, so it is only fair to place Wild Apple & Hawthorn alongside other options in the same space and be clear about where it sits. The comparisons below are general, based on the style of each type of product rather than on specific rival brands, because recipes change and we would rather not make claims we cannot verify.

Against standard sweet fruit nic salts (strawberry, watermelon, mixed berry and similar): the sweet fruits lean into sugary, juicy flavours and tend to feel richer on the tongue. Wild Apple & Hawthorn is drier and more tart, with a cleaner finish. If you find the standard fruit salts too cloying after a few hours, this may suit you better. If you want maximum sweetness and big candy character, you will probably prefer a conventional sweet fruit.

Against ice and menthol fruit blends: those profiles add a cooling effect that many people enjoy, particularly in warm weather. This product has no stated cooling agent, so the sensation is warmer and softer. It is a better fit if cold vapour irritates your throat.

Against single-note apple juices: a plain apple liquid can taste sharp but one-dimensional. The hawthorn gives this one an extra layer. The downside is that it is less immediately recognisable, so someone who wants a straight apple taste may find it more complex than they asked for.

Against tobacco and custard salts: these suit people who want a taste closer to smoking or a heavier dessert profile. They are not interchangeable with a light, tart fruit, and ex-smokers sometimes prefer a tobacco-style flavour in the early stages of switching. Fruit tends to appeal to those who want to leave the taste of tobacco behind.

Where Deliciu has a practical advantage is its link to Vaporesso hardware. The liquid is designed with that company's pod systems in mind, which reduces the guesswork around viscosity, wicking and coil compatibility. Where it has a limitation is variety and customisation: you get a fixed nicotine strength per bottle and a fixed recipe, so you cannot adjust the nicotine or the sweetness the way you can with a shortfill and nicotine shots.

For most adult smokers moving to a pod kit, the realistic choice comes down to flavour preference and nicotine level rather than the brand name. If tart, natural fruit sounds appealing and 20mg is the right strength for you, this is a sensible option to try, and a single 10ml bottle is a low-commitment way to find out.

Pros & cons

Pros

  • Best value per ml in the category
  • Choose your own device and coil
  • Available in a wide strength ladder

Cons

  • Refilling can leak if you overfill
  • Coil priming has a small learning curve

Frequently asked questions

What nicotine strength should I choose, and is 20mg too strong?

This listing is the 20mg/ml nic salt, which is the highest strength legally sold in the UK and is aimed at heavier smokers or people moving from a 20mg disposable. If you smoke fewer cigarettes or vape frequently through the day, a 10mg salt is often more comfortable, and it is easier to move up a strength than to recover from taking too much nicotine.

Can I use this e-liquid in a sub-ohm tank or a disposable vape?

No to both. A 20mg nic salt is designed for low-wattage pod kits and mouth-to-lung devices, and using it in a high-power sub-ohm tank would deliver an excessive dose of nicotine. Disposable vapes are sealed and cannot be refilled, so the bottle is only for refillable devices.

How do I charge the device I use with this liquid?

The e-liquid has no battery, so charging depends on your pod kit. Use the supplied cable or a reputable USB charger, keep the charging port dry, and never leave a device charging unattended or overnight. When a device or battery reaches the end of its life, take it to a household waste recycling centre or a retailer drop-off point rather than putting it in the bin.

Does this come in other flavours or strengths?

The Deliciu range includes a number of flavours, and nic salts are commonly offered at more than one strength, so check the related products on this page for what is currently in stock. Each flavour and strength is a separate bottle, so you can try different options without having to change your device, although it is best to rinse the pod and replace the coil between very different flavours.

How long will a 10ml bottle last?

For a moderate user on a typical pod kit, a 10ml bottle commonly lasts between three and seven days, and heavier users may get through one in two to three days. Your coil resistance, power setting and the length of your draws all change the figure, so treat it as a guide rather than a guarantee.

Is it good value compared with disposables and cigarettes?

Refillable pod kits running nic salt generally cost less per day than a pack-a-day cigarette habit and less per puff than disposables, once you include the cost of coils and pods. Value also depends on how well the flavour and strength suit you, because a bottle you finish is better value than one left half-used.

Who should not buy this product?

It is not suitable for anyone under 18, for non-smokers, or for people who are pregnant, breastfeeding or have heart conditions unless a medical professional has advised otherwise. It is also the wrong choice for anyone using a high-wattage sub-ohm device or anyone who finds 20mg too strong. Nicotine is addictive, so it should only be used by adults who already use nicotine.

Do you deliver to the UK and will I need to show ID?

We supply to UK addresses, and delivery options, costs and estimated times are shown at checkout. Because this is a nicotine product, age verification is required and the courier may ask for proof of age on delivery, so make sure an adult is available to receive the parcel.

What if my bottle arrives damaged or the liquid seems wrong?

Stop using it, keep the bottle, packaging and batch number, and contact us as soon as possible with a photo so we can put it right. Your statutory rights as a UK consumer apply to goods that arrive damaged or are not as described. E-liquid is a consumable, so a change of mind after opening is treated differently, and our returns policy page sets out the details. Any hardware warranty on a pod kit is provided separately by the device manufacturer.
