I got an email from Hiliq about new synthetic non-tobacco nicotine? Anyone have experience with this?
submitted almost 9 years ago by ViolentCrumble

The email stated it's superior due to the impurities of nicotine extracted from tobacco.

Has anyone worked with it? Is it old news?

I've only heard it's way too expensive, did they quote a price?

Nope, Just offered a free sample if i buy 250ml of pure nic or 1L of their 100mg nic base

Interesting, but doubt it's worth the cost at the moment. This article from June says it's 13 times as expensive to produce compared to extracts. It's a cool development though.

I'm sure you won't but DONT get the pure nic. The fact that they offer that sketches me out tbh

haha yeah i don't :P hell i dont even get 100mg because i don't like working with such small quantities.. more chance to stuff up.. :)

even if i wanted to try their sample.. i would have to buy a liter of 100mg.. that would last me sooo long i wouldn't even need the synthetic lol

This 7 year old post on ECF has some interesting information on the subject.

http://www.hiliq.com/100mg-ml-ntn-non-tobacco-nicotine .... it is like 5 times as expensive as normal... but I am willing to try it out. I seem to be very sensitive to the harshness of nicotine, I tried several different brands. But this is totaly new to me and I expect a lot from it. I only vape 3mg so in the end it's still only 5 cents per full tank (3ml), not really an issue if the taste really is better.

it's just also the shipping is quite expensive... wondering if i should get 2 bottles... anybody has experience with this yet?

agreed i only vape 3ml too.. but I don't like working with 100mg nic yet :D hoping someone can test and let me know just how much better..

I mean if i can shake and vape lots more because of no nic taste.. then i might be down :P

Sounds like bullshit to me. Maybe I'm wrong but surely nicotine is nicotine?

There are impurities in almost everything. Most times they arent required to report those impurities due to our government laws. even in the lab made stuff there are going to be impurities probably. just not as many as when sourced from tobacco

Or potentially different impurities that give different flavor profiles.

I think tomato leaves have nicotine in them? Maybe I'm not sure

Yes the nightshade family including eggplants and tomatoes have naturally occurring nicotine. Not sure if this came from one of those though

I'd be willing to bet it comes from eggplant, and I'm pretty sure it has the second most nicotine (after tobacco)
