What is the cleanest and most reliable nictone?
submitted about 7 years ago by Soullessgemini

Switched to Pod systems a few months ago and can not find any really good high pg and high freebase nic juices (24mg/50/50) Gonna start to DIY again. I used to use nude but they were really hit and miss. What would you all recommend now.

Carolina Xtract

I second Carolina Xtract. You'll pay more, but the quality is above and beyond.

Vaperstek Chemnovatic is just as good, and 120ml there is $10 vs CX $23.

NicRiver also carries Chemnovatic. 150ml @ 100mg/ml = $14.

I third Carolina Xtract. It’s worth the money.

Me too! "If it aint broke don't fix it" is my motto. Their stuff is wonderful compared to some other stuff I've had. Harshness and pepperiness is not pleasant. My flavors taste clean with VT nic.

I've been out for a while now, what happened to Nude? A while back it was all anyone would recommend

Just got my fresh order yesterday.

Still a great quality product. They've had some QA issues a couple years ago, and some claim shipping issues.

I had order to door in a week.

Wish they had an armor lock version of nic salts tho

I started DIY a year and a half ago. My first nic order was from Nude. They sent me 100mg pepper sauce. I looked around and went with Vaperstek. They sent me much, much better stuff.

My Nude nic was always totally smooth, up until the end, but that's because I left it slightly open. I guess this affirms the thing people were saying about lacking QC though, lol.

Yeah. Reliable company, just wish they still carried the USA nicotine.

I've never had a problem with Nic River or VaporsTek. Carolina Xtract's is the best overall, but I like to minimize my shipping costs, so I tend to get nic, VG, PG, and flavors all in one go. That's really the only reason I don't order with CXT anymore.

I have been using nic from My Freedom Smokes no issues.Some has been in the freezer for over a year.

At $50 a liter for 100Mg i picked up 2.

Carolina Xtraction ought to be the highest quality nic available because of their CO2 extraction process: no solvents or heat, no oxidization from contact with air, shipped in a brown glass bottle surrounded by a molded styrofoam insert and packed in a heavy duty cardboard box. First rate all the way.

But it's expensive. I bought a liter last April for long term storage. List price was $155.99 for the liter and shipping added $17.80. Code "AB DADA" was good for 7% off the liter's cost.

I've had the same problem with nude nic. It's very hit or miss. I got liquid barns basic and that was also extremely throaty at their 3mg even though the liquid was extremely clear but their service is great and I have no doubt they would have replaced it if I complained. Make sure you check shipping prices and buy enough for free shipping wherever you go since prices can get up to $20 or more if they are shipping it correctly.

I still use Nude and have never stopped. I know some people have had issues in the past, but I have been ordering from them for years and have always received my order quickly with no quality issues.

I've seen some good stuff about eliq but have yet to order from them.

I haven't tried Carolina but I have used Nude, Chemnovatic, etc and settled on E-liq. Got about 60+ years worth of nic from them and couldn't be happier with the quality of the product. Titrates correctly, no tastes, nice and clear, low to medium throat hit.

You can get everything from I think 3mg/ml to much higher concentrations in any amount of pg/vg in 10% increments.
