If you’re new to vaping, you’ve probably seen PG and VG written on e-liquid bottles. But what do they mean, and how do they affect your vaping experience? Here’s a simple breakdown:
🔹 PG (Propylene Glycol)
-
Carries flavor better → stronger taste.
-
Gives a sharper “throat hit” (similar to smoking).
-
Thinner liquid → works well in small vape pens.
🔹 VG (Vegetable Glycerin)
-
Smoother on the throat.
-
Produces big, dense vapor clouds.
-
Slightly sweet, which can soften flavors.
-
Thicker → works best in sub-ohm devices.
👉 Which one should you choose?
-
If you want flavor + throat hit → go for higher PG.
-
If you love smooth clouds → choose higher VG.
-
Beginners often start with 50/50 blends for balance.
💡 Pro Tip: Experiment with both. Everyone’s preference is different, and the “right” vape juice is the one that feels best to you.
