Pod Salt Nic Salts: The Ranges, the Strengths and Which Flavour to Pick

If you have searched for Pod Salt, you have probably noticed there is a lot of it. Dozens of flavours across several ranges, with names that do not always tell you which is which. This guide sorts it out: what each range is for, which strength to pick, and where to start.

Who makes Pod Salt?

Pod Salt launched in 2018 as one of the first UK brands to make nothing but nic salts. It is made in Preston in ISO-certified cleanrooms, and it has stuck to the same simple idea ever since: good flavours, built for small pod kits, at a fair price.

Every Pod Salt comes in a 10ml bottle at 50/50 VG/PG, the sweet spot for mouth-to-lung pod kits. It wicks fast, it does not flood small coils, and it gives a smooth throat hit even at higher strengths.

The ranges, in one line each

• Pod Salt Core: the classics. Single, honest flavours: fruit, menthol, tobacco, desserts. Start here.

• Pod Salt Nexus: the modern fruit-and-ice blends. Three-fruit combinations with a cool finish, built for anyone coming off disposables.

• Pod Salt Origin: the tobacco range, for ex-smokers who want it to taste like a cigarette.

• Pod Salt Fusions: collaborations with other e-liquid brands, bringing their flavours into Pod Salt's nic salt.

Which strength should you choose?

• 20mg: the strongest legal strength in the UK. Best if you smoked 15 or more a day, or you are moving across from a disposable or prefilled pod and want the same hit.

• 10mg: the most popular middle ground. Enough to satisfy most people who smoked up to 15 a day.

• 5mg: for lighter smokers, or anyone stepping their nicotine down.

Nic salts feel smoother than freebase at the same strength, so 20mg in Pod Salt is less harsh than you might expect. If you are unsure, our 10mg vs 20mg nic salt guide walks through it. Shop by strength: 5mg, 10mg or 20mg.

If you came off a disposable

The Nexus range is built for you: big fruit, a cool finish, and that familiar bar-style flavour in a bottle that costs a fraction of the price.

• Blue Razz Cherry Blast: sharp blue raspberry and sweet cherry. Instantly recognisable if you have had a blue razz bar.

• Strawberry Watermelon Kiwi: juicy, sweet and a little tangy. An easy all-day vape.

• Mango Strawberry Peach: soft, ripe summer fruit.

• Pineapple Passion & Lime: tropical with a zingy finish.

• Sweet Strawberry Lemonade and Blueberry Blackberry Lemonade: fizzy, sweet-sharp lemonades.

• Rainbow: a mixed sweet-shop candy flavour.

If you like it fresh

• Ice Menthol: clean, sweet and properly icy.

• Strawberry Kiwi Ice and Banana Ice: fruit with a cold finish.

• Blue Razapple Ice: blue raspberry and apple, chilled.

If you are an ex-smoker

• Cigarette: warm and earthy, the closest thing to a real cigarette in the range.

• True Tobacco a smooth, lighter tobacco blend.

• Menthol Tobacco: tobacco with a cool edge, for menthol smokers.

If you have a sweet tooth

• Vanilla: simple, creamy and moreish.

• Strawberry Marshmallow: soft, sweet and fluffy.

Which kit should you use it in?

Pod Salt is made for low-powered, mouth-to-lung pod kits: the OXVA Xlim, Vaporesso XROS, Uwell Caliburn and similar. Pair it with a higher-resistance pod (0.8Ω to 1.2Ω) for the smoothest result.

It is not made for big sub-ohm tanks, where a 20mg nic salt would be far too strong. If you are new to all this, our nic salt vs freebase guide explains the difference, and best pod kits will help you choose a device.

Why Pod Salt is great value, even after the vape duty

Every 10ml bottle now carries the same vaping products duty whoever makes it, so value comes down to price and flavour. Pod Salt has always been one of the most affordable quality nic salts, and a 10ml bottle fills a 2ml pod five times. That makes it one of the cheapest ways to vape, as our cheapest way to vape after the vape tax guide shows.
